Success lads, we have finally made the GAY suit, and it works even on a Mannequin....
The Queen's Diamond Jubilee - Another Wild Party..
Crowds are gathering - Glad to see that out of the 10+ million London occupant, somebody had bothered to come out (the Camera Man's Mother, Daughter, Sister & Wife)..
The patriotic heels come with a price tag of £3000. Though that is because they are encrusted with Swarovski crystals.
Fab - Need a pair in Men's Size 11.
(still, there is no accounting for taste)
Sunday - 13th May 2012 - Unlucky for some.
While driving back from a job in Manchester (M602 - Just Outside Eccles.)
A man jumps off a motorway bridge, hitting a vehicle in the process.
The vehicle was around 10 cars ahead from my position. 200-300 yards away...
All traffic stops - the man whose car was hit, gets out, sits down on the central reservation with head in his hands, thinking and probably still in shock, and collapses in situe.
The jumper, is lying face down on the road, with legs and arms mangled in an unnatural pose, I can only assume that he had died instantly.
Around 3 cars behind, were in a multi crash (pile-up) , they couldn't stop in time.
I felt so very uneasy & physically sick.
What does it take to make somebody wants to end it all, this way, what reason, what pain, what state of mind.
Life is so short and precious, yet it's wasted in the pursuit of the impossible, and crushing us, our hopes & dreams at every occasion. And even if we attain that dream, by then, it will be too late to matter or to care...
R.I.P Young Man... I hope you are somewhere better, with no pain....

If it looks like ......
He asked me to try one, and as per usual I accepted and told him that they were very tasty, and all the while, trying to control my gag reflex.
I never tried those sweets before, but they were really, really bad (photos attached). Apparently, they are a Kurdish delicacy, made with grape juice.
So the question is; If it looks like shit, smells like shit & taste like shit; What could it be?
Greeks, Romans, it's all the same to me...
Apparently, the Royal Mint has dropped a BoBo when it came to creating Commemorative Gold Coins for the 2012, London Olympics, and they had chosen "Roman Gods", instead of Greek Ones... Here is a list of what has been chosen thus far...
Citius series (Faster)
Neptune – God of the sea – Sailing
Diana – Goddess of hunting – Cycling (No Connection)
Mercury – Messenger of the gods – Running
Altius series (Higher)
Jupiter – King of the gods – Diving (and Football)
Apollo – God of the sun – Rhythmic gymnastics (WTF)
Juno – Queen of the gods – Pole vaulting (and Pole Dancing)
Fortius series (Stronger)
Mars – God of war – Boxing
Minerva – Goddess of wisdom – Javelin (No Connection)
Vulcan – God of fire – Hammer (No Connection)
Me, I'm just looking forward to London's Roman Games MMXII - The fighting, the blood, the combat, the wild animals, the condemned criminals, the slaves, the smells, ,the weapons, and 'chariot' racing around the roundabouts. Followed by a a spot of vino & lager drinking, on a park bench & the customary orgy...
And then there were 9....
Every now and then I get something so shockingly bad, that I have to say something about; and now I have these bad boys, with their very own level of badness...
Bought 10, Sold 10 - Problems with 10.... Every day of every week....
I'm just praying for the other 9 to get stolen.....

Energy Saving Bulb - Has it been that long?
I thought that one of the major selling points for those "Energy Efficient" light bulbs is Longevity, so you pay a little bit more for the light bulb (10 times the price), and you are given the reassurance that it will last for the next 10 years.
And as per usual, and in life, reality does not pan out as planned, and I seem to be replacing those even more frequently than the older filament type (Average Life Expectancy. 6-8 Month).
The only question is this, who is benefiting & how much more in resources does it take to manufacture the new type of light bulb & is it worth it?...
