breakfast

i’m usually quite hungry by the time i get to work.
it being a friday i decided to buy a selection pack of teeny weeny croissants and pain au chocolats. what a treat.

unfortunately the noise of drilling and general construction coming from another part of my office took the edge of this morning luxury.
i’ve got a stinking cold and have a massive headache anyway, so the noise didn’t help. here’s a video of me dealing with the noise.
i don’t think i normally look this depressed and miserable. but maybe i do.

not snow

i’m really missing the fact that it’s not snowing (despite snow in these parts being a rare thing).
i was a little heartened to see all these polystyrene bits over the street this morning. they even made a nice crunchy noise as i walked over them.
i tried sledging on them but just looked silly.

boxes

this is part of the government’s ‘houses for mouses’ program.
mouses love these little insulated boxes. inside they have hot and cold running water, electricity and even Internet connectivity.
they’ve never had it so good.

the three glove railings

there were three gloves on my favourite glove-railings this morning.
compare to what i saw last time and you’ll notice there’s been a slight change. someone’s taken the pair and replaced it with a faux-leather singular glove.
what we have here is an actual, modern, working glove exchange

no ice cycling

i imagine if you took the tyres off a bike it would work quite well on ice ?

national crime squad extinguishers

in a rare work-meets-blog moment i can tell you i went to the launch event for the Virtual Global Taskforce last night (go check out the site).
whilst listening to the presentation i spotted these two extinguishers hiding behind the National Crime Squad emblem !
