Last night as I worked I
listened to the radio as usual. Said radio served up its usual blend
of interest and drivel.
I couldn't beleive a year
has passed since the Scots voted to remain part of the United
Kingdom. But despite an overwhelming vote to stay, the Scottish
Nationalists are still agitating for another
referendum.
Don't they realise that
they had their choice and was told to get knotted?
And our old friend
science has detemined that the most painful place in which a bee
might sting you is
the nostril and went on to discover that all large mammals pee
for the same length of time. Apparently all large mammals empty their
bladders in twenty
one seconds.
You would think science
might have better things to do with its time. Unless it likes that
sort of thing.
Having done my bit I was
immediately seconded to chauffeur "er indoors TM"
from the garrage to her work. She's having her brakes seen to.
Apparently this is going to cost me six hundred quid.
So much for what I was
going to spend it on...
Wiith chauffeuring done I
took "Furry Face TM" for a walk.
Bearing in mind the conclusions reached by our old friend science I
watched my dog like a hawk. He'd not been out for a tiddle yet this
morning so I was able to conduct a scientific experiment. I concluded
that either my dog doesn't count as a large mammal, or science is
talking rubbish. Squeezing out one drop of tiddle every ten yards my
Patagonian Tripe-Hound still had plenty in his bladder after an hour.
We walked via the vets
where I made an appointment for his booster shot for Monday morning.
Today he walkled in there without a care in the world. On Monday I
will need to use all my might to drag him in there. How does he know?
We came home, I went to
bed. I lost count of the times "Furry Face TM"
declared "Red Alert" and was barking at absolutely
nothing at all. After a couple of hours "er indoors TM"
asked when I would be waking up as her car was ready to be collected.
So I fetched her and took her to the garage.
By one of life's myriad
coincidences the garage was next to McDonalds so we had lunch
together.
I came home, and didn't
really feel like doing anything particularly active. For a moment I
felt rather guilty and looked at thee bright sunshine outside and
looked at my dog. Then in the space of about ten seconds the sky went
black, the rain was torrential and the thunder started. So instead I
spent a little time working on my latest Wherigo.
Six hours later I'd
created about ten minutes more game play, and "er indoors TM"
came home. A bit of tea, then catching up with episodes of Bake
Off...
