jono coleman making britiain laugh
on the way back from a meeting i walked past jono coleman trying to get britiain smiling (by playing Amarilo).
i think it was to do with this show. i was invited to stand in the background and pretent to be happy, but seeing as i was meant to be at work i thought that would be a bad idea !
i’m sure if all the people just turned round the view would have cheered them up. and it would have been much less anoying than watching jono coleman jiggling to Amarilo.
do noisy birds not have ears ?
quiet birds have ears. but does the opposite also apply ? if not, why bother with the sign ?
models for specific haircuts wanted
here’s a funny old sign. it’s advertising for models. it’s not clear whether the sort of model is like the one in the picture, but let’s leave that.
what intrigued me was that they are looking for general models for specific haircuts. what’s a specific haircut ?
fosters and 7up
fosters are my most spotted abandoned drink cans. that’s interesting.
shoot your poo
if you want to make something appealing to kids you need to turn it in to a computer game … or … associate it with poo. this classic ball shooting game (drop the balls down a pipe with air zooming through it to fire them) has been renamed as ‘shoot your poo’.
the balls are the poos which can get cleansed by the water reeds (the things with teeth and eyes).
see, it makes perfect sense now i’ve explained it.
london wetland centre
as a celebration that kezia has finally got through the chicken pox, we went on a family outing to the london wetlands centre. it’s really rather good.
here’s a hide
and here’s the girls in masks they made
definately worth a visit. beware of camera lens envy if you do go though – it’s absolutely packed with photographers with long lenses trying to get their perfect bird shots.
