no livery

i’ve noticed many of the dust carts i pass have had new liveries (paint jobs). this one hasn’t.

no houses on skis

helen (on the right here) sent me this which she claims means no houses on skis.
we’re due a cold winter this year which i’m actually quite looking forward to. i like a bit of cold (assuming i have a nice warm coat). (and hat).

bird flu

i’ll catch the armagedon zeitgeist by doing a post about bird flu. except this is simply another animal outside the glasses shop on tottenham court road. it seems they’ve stuck with the recent bird theme
i spotted this one from a restaurant where i was having a business lunch and kept an eye on it as i dinned. after i walked over to where it was standing and took this photo.
the bird itself looked a bit upset i thought (not to mention a bit beaten up), but then i noticed the crossed arms were built in and the hands were sticking randomly out. i took a leaflet and noticed that the hands were very nicely manicured and a lady’s voice said ‘thank you’ very politely.
it definately wasn’t the same person inside as before

no hard hat no work

what a great motto. good enough to use as a blog subtitle for a bit i feel.
