Things That are Coming Soon

Shrove and Mardis Gras There are many things that are coming soon
Like the warmer days and the next full moon
Valentines is on its way
But more important
is pancake day…
So don’t forget to fire up the pan
Mix the eggs, get lemon
and sugar if you can
For you will unltimately regret
If Pancake Day is a Tuesday
you forget!

Updates!

Exciting News have updated the “About Me” page and also “The Main Point” page. This is as exciting as having the ability to scan stuff in again…

Anyway this year I am going to have the following 3 new year resolutions…

1) Draw the chinese zodiac signs all dressed as dragons (apart from the dragon who already looks a bit dragonish)

2) Draw duels with rupert the bear style rhyming couplets

3) Redesign flags of the world (this might prove to be controversial as some people really love their nations flags. I personally find nearly every flag boring as it is normally a collection of crosses or rectangles.)

Exciting Cricket News

Somerset moved into 3rd place with the cidergram showing them only 6 pints behind the leaders, Lancashire in the county championship. The latest win was in part due to the 100 scored by butler and the 6 wickets taken by Alfonso Thomas.

Alfonso the kitten
Alfonso's namesake was happy and hopes Somerset can keep up their good form
Lorem Ipsum
Lorem Ipsum esq. wonders if it was his missing butler who scored the century.

To M

I did promise someone this a few months ago when she got bad news…

We never met for that coffee
We were just too busy
You were so strong
But now you’ve gone
Maybe after life we’ll meet for tea

The Alternative Universe of Commentators…

I particularly was taken with the Annie Get Your Gun style comment during the Leeds v Oldham penalty shootout…

“Anything you can do <slight pause while you can hear pundits brain cogs turning> I can do exactly the same”

It doesn’t fit the tune as well but maybe to encourage less bickering and more harmony in the world it is a better version of the song…

Anything you can do,

The same as you.

Yes you can.
I know I can. So do I.
Yes, you do. You do too.
Yes, I do,

Lesson of the day

Today I learnt that if I do not write certain things down I will forget them. So I have now forgotten the lesson of 2 days ago when I found out the name of those yellow lines marked accross roads to encourage drivers to slow down…

Also that it would be quicker to check in luggage at Heathrow, stopover for a few hours in Dubai, fly to Singapore with a 1 hour stop in Colombo than to watch all those episodes of 24 showing on sky 2 today.

Weird event of the day : Having a make up collection…
