Ok, I Admit It - I Have No Content

So, instead of writing witty and interesting things, I am indulging myself and posting more picture of my nephew.

Can You Say Perfect?

Yeah - spent Christmas with my new nephew Jake aka 'Squishy' aka 'The Most Perfect, Beautiful, Intelligent, Adorable Baby in the World'.







P.S. The date is obviously wrong on the photos!

How Cute Are These! (Picture Them Before Shrivelling)



Sal and I had a few people over for dinner on Wednesday and made it pot luck. In honour, of the fact that Steve bought me 'March of the Peguins' - Cat made these appetizers! Here is Dave's non-shrivelled picture from the night;

Springtime for Hitler

Sal and I went to see The Producers last night. It was brilliant. Crass, slap stick and totally funny. The spinning Swastika kickline was a sight to behold.

P.S. I meant we went to the West End Show - not the movie.

I Got One

My wish has come true - sort of. I have a penguin - actually lots of them. Steve sent me 'March of the Penguins' on DVD. I realise I shouldn't have opened it until tomorrow but hey, I am crap.

Hate The Product, Love The Ad

Everytime I see the Malibo ad with the Melon Stand I laugh. 'That melon is fo0r display purposes only.' 'I just want to buy a melon.' Ha ha ha - love it.

Private Screening Except For The Other People

I went to see Where The Truth Lies to day. I really liked it and recommend it to all. I arrived 5 minutes before the start time and was the only one there. I was totally excited at the prospect of being the only one there - what luxury to have a private screening of a movie. But then as the ads started, people began arriving. There were only 6 other people there but it still spoiled my buzz. And, and, and why did one couple have to sit almost directly in front of me? Oh well, I kept kicking the seats beside them but it wasn't on purpose all the time. I know, I know - passive aggressive or what?

Yeah - We Have A Christmas Tree

A 3 foot Norway Spruce I have dubbed Duane. While Duane is not a very Norwegian name he doesn't have the personality of an Anders, Haldor or Lars. I also bought a very prickly holly wreath I have named Edith. Getting them home was fun. I looked like a total plonker carrying them home over Twickenham Bridge - sometimes I do miss my car.

We Are Getting Greener

In a way it is sad that I am so excited about this but on Wednesday, we were delivered a food waste recycling bin! I am so pleased. Green, green, green.
