transport failure provisions

i had to walk from the Tower of London to Paddington yesterday evening and i wasn’t sure how long it would take to get there and if there’d be any trains when i got there, and even if there was how many other people would be trying to get on them !
in the end it just reopened as i got there and i jumped straight on to a train and didn’t need any of my emergency war rations.

a message for the G8

protect our world. take your shoes off (from the giant map outside city hall).
something the G8 leaders would do well to heed. if they had met in winter in scotland they could all have warmed their tootsies over the fire whilst toasting toast with their toasting toast forks.

pirates

in my day people feared pirates. now they advertise them

a new sign

here is a new slippery sign from Katherine’s Dock in London.

and in a wheelbarrow

6,000th post (ish)

i’m not sure quite how the numbering will work out but this is around my 6,000th post on the blog and we’ve just passed the 4,000th comment mark too !

if the stats are to believed funkypancake got 32,000 unique visitors last month equating to 47K visits and 48GBytes of traffic.
walking wise i’ve also just gone over the 3,000 miles / 5,000 km mark.
how long have you been reading funkypancake ? long enough to remember lazy eye when i first published her ? why do you keep coming back ?

just say no

your caring sharing council.
