brother edd’s alien
we went to visit brother edd and jacqui this afternoon. here is edd’s alien. it was knitted by our aunt apparently.
there’s a tradition of aliens being knitted. the clangers are the most obvious example.
the vegetarian option
here is my colleague liz at our office christmas lunch. she’s a vegetarian which is well accepted in most restaurants in these modern days. however, the restaurant we went to obviously wasn’t so sure, so to be safe they just gave her a plate of rice instead.
the open fridge incident
when i got in to the office yesterday morning just after 7.30am i discovered the fridge door was open.
i just thought i’d share that with you.
hovercraft
surely one of the best ways to travel ? i love how you reach the other end and just get out on the slippery concrete place right next to the sea.
if you could park your car there it would be incredibly convenient
the misery of commuting
my train company changed the timings of all its trains this week. they did it so they could ‘have more seat and better punctionality’.
so far, nearly every train i’ve been on had been late and has been full to bursting with people standing.
but my new 6.08am train seems quite good, even if it does mean i have to get up an hour earlier.
so how can such a company ever make it up to their customers ? answer: by giving them a mince pie.
i had a suspicion they were poisoned so they could kill off a few commuters and free up some seats.

i thought i’d seen the last of the numbered train signs at Paddington, but this morning i spotted page 6 !
word 20 – reach: perspective is a funny old thing
do you see what i’ve done here ? i’ve made it look like that crane in the distance is lifting the christmas tree.
i surprise myself sometimes.
26things
my favourite decoration so far
this massive star is hanging up in the Oracle shopping centre in Reading. i was most impressed by it.
bad planning
this is a sign on a train i sometimes get. it worries me.
shouldn’t it be the driver’s responsibility to make sure he parks the train up properly so people don’t drop to the ground when they get out of the door ?
merry christmas fell apart
this was like distruction art.
as i walked past it at 7 this morning, bits of merry christmas were falling off the window.
