the seagulls love butlins

here’s the view from our kitchen window at butlins.  it’s not luxury accommodation, but then we didn’t come here to sit in the chalet (although i’ve been doing a fair bit of that).  anyway, we’re having a jolly good time thanks for asking.  wish you were here.

great word.  not great paving

mountain lions like children

edd 5th april 160.jpg

brother edd is in america somewhere and found this rather worrying sign. “keep children close as mountain lions seem to be especially drawn to them”. it’s not clear whether it’s recommending you take a child with you to enhance your chances of spotting a seldom seen cub.

statement about dogs

good short statement there.  with a random capital L.  there should be a form of punishment for people who misuse capitals.

tesco chaos

090323_850_img_3357.jpg

the chaos in my local tesco continues.  the reduced goods are now so wide spread that the cleaning trolley thing couldn’t get round the corner without knocking the display over, thus causing more cleaning work.  great stuff
