I was just listening to a John Otway clip in itunes music store - a live version of House of the Rising Sun, with audience participation.
"There is ... "What?" "...A house... "Where?" ."..In New Orleans... "What's it called?"

Spent the latter part of the afternoon cleaning out the pond in the back garden and hacking away at the ivy. Every year since the year after the pond was put in there has been frogspawn in it and since last autumn it has filled with dead leaves & other debris.

yes i cant imagine blunt giving out commands, or gaining any respect, but i also cant see my friend (who's a captain) actually being an officer either..or any of his friends for that matter..!
maybe i'm too old and wise, and i'm not seeing things from a 16 year old recruits point of view..?

This morning I was just on my way home from my cleaning job and a few steps away from the building I went arse over tit on a strip of ice.

Awwwwwwwwwwwww.
Ya, it is a nice city, but it's not great. Nice though. The pickpocket thing is still a problem appernently, but i think they only target over the top touristey folk. However, i did see thsoe people y'know that do those card tricks on the footpath, and they hoodwink you. Well, there was this guy doing that, and some of his friends were helping him out, and they got this dutch girl to bet 50 and they made her loose on purpose, pocketed the cash and walked away. She was in floods of tears, cuz she didn't really know what had just happened. And my useless boyfriend wouldn't let me give her 50.
But it was nice. Rant over.

My mother told me earlier that the elder of my two sisters was admitted to hospital for tests on Friday - a recurrence of a problem she had last summer - seemingly with her middle ear - which was affecting her balance - she collapsed whilst at work. They didn't find out what the problem was but she didn't have any further episodes . On...

That person in the first picture bears very little resemblance to the person I see in the mirror these days. It's weird!
