Horses for courses...

Oh how I have learned the hard way.

Yesterday I had indeed ascended to heaven....I was in Hyde Park when The Police played their last ever gig in the UK.......that said, it was tempered with the depression that came over me when I looked at the pictures I took with the camera on my phone. 'Poor' would not be an adequate description. If a two year old had taken them, his or her parents would probably have probably emigrated and left the child at home, thus creating a news frenzy.

It was depressing enough that as I was reviewing the pictures on the train on the way home, the bloke sitting next to me was reviewing the, clearly very good, pictures he'd taken with his fairly inexpensive camera (that incidentally didn't double up as a phone). What made it worse was that he had seen The Police in 1979 in Brighton and had also taken some good 35mm shots that night too....I actually think he said this to rub salt into my visibly open wounds.

The moral of the story.....phones are meant to be used to talk to people.....cameras are meant to take pictures. As of now, the two don't really mix.

The look that says it all

She may only be 6 weeks old but my daughter has perfected a certain kind of look. When people come up to us and say (in a very silly voice) "Are you a baby?", you can see that she's actually thinking "Yes.......are you a mental patient?".

Freshly brewed

Most of us are well versed in using multi-national coffee shops to buy our skinny latte's, double cappuccino's and other shit. We also know that pick pockets thrive in this environment.

I want to a open tea emporium so I can put a sign up saying 'tea leaves operate in this area'!

Whatever happened to the Apothecary?

And there was me thinking that it was only your friends with contact lenses that turned your house into a science lab, but now the baby is doing it too! We've got cauldron's boiling, witches coming round with herbs and the sweet smell of chlorine permeating throughout the kitchen - all in order to sterilise the feeding bottles!

This isn't the first time I've had dreams of women in white coats trying to take me away.

Not a clue...

What a wonderful announcement on the station this morning...."We apologise for the late running of the 6.54 - the train is being delayed by a currently unidentified reason which is under investigation"!!!

So, the driver got up late then???!!!
