what a great collecting device
the slaughters
jane and i spent our 10th wedding aniversary in the slaughters. good name. great place.
watch children – as regular as clockwork
watch children are really easy to wind up apparently.
once upon a time i saw a watch face. “which way” you ask ?
private amenity lands
i’ve no idea what amenity land is.
the changing face of retail
i now go to Osterley a couple of times a week and i walk down from Ealing Broadway station. Right near my destination, there’s this PC World store.

bush thermometer
bernard sent me this picture of a thermometer in a bush (and his neice’s daughters)
here is a close up of the thermometer in the bush. Bernard wondered whether it was an early warning system for burning bushes which would make sense.
why bananas don’t make good balloons
why would anyone want to tie a piece of string round a banana.
