al(armed)
i asked for permission before i took this photo !
swimming tortoise thing
this photo nearly worked.
dead musical giants
the gates were open so i got to stand next to Isaac Watts grave.
and whilst we’re on the subject, here’s charles wesley and john wesley’s mum’s grave stone
the unfortunate bollard incident
i saw these two chaps on the way to work last thursday and i thought it looked like they were holding hands to cross the road. so i took this photo for you.
but i walked past them at lunchtime on the way to church and they’d obviously not done too well
and then yesterday i think they’d given up and gone back to car park duty
a cunning (open) plan
remember the great opening of my new office over 2 years ago ?
well, yesterday morning the time came for it to be taken apart.
i knew something was up when i saw this by my phone
and pretty soon the windows were gone
and i became open-plan
a warning about the air conditioning ?
on the same day they took the walls away we were given some corporate freebies. here is john sporting his with pride – i wonder if they are planning on turning the heat off ?
just in case anyone is wondering, i really do enjoy my job and the company i work for is very good. and since this it’s got even cooler (which is probably why we need the winter gear).
this car possibly contains a member of the royal family
not one of my best shots.
no hat no boots no job
you can’t fault their logic. if you’ve got no hat, you’ve got no boots. and if you’ve got no boots, you’ve got no job.
the funkypancake chair interview
i was interviewed for the A Chair Fantastic which is a great chair related blog which i’m sure you all read anyway. the interview is here.
they seemed very nice for chair people !
the funny thing about fame
so, we eventually found out London’s Avenue of Fame / Walk of Fame / London celebrity name plate things has been taken away as it was only ever a temporary thing.
there were some good names on the plaques, including Ricky Gervais who i once spotted in the streets of london (see here).
i have to say i’m still not satisfied we’ve got to the bottom of this one, so i’ll go and ask in the church next time i’m passing. if you missed the original story it’s here
