Just fired off an email to Lily Lolo, a UK company specialising in mineral makeup. In their FAQ’s they say the don’t test their products or ingridients on animals, and neither do their suppliers. Very good. But I have the latest edition of the Naturewatch Shopping Guide, and Lily Lolo isn’t mentioned in either the [...]

Something happy to quell my rage…

PIGGIES!

So yeah, I’m raged because despite opening a dispute file or whatever its called over those two Betamax payments, Paypal have let one go though into my bank account! Wow, good job you nutsacks. ARGHHHH!

“Hey man, thats a swede swede you’re swedings”

The big news today aka OMG I NEARLY DIED. Not.

Yep, Market Rasen is roughly 10-15 miles from Lincoln (as the crow flies).  It was fun, in a completely weird way. Woke up to the house shaking and all these weird creaky noises and bright lights and my first thought was that the military had blockaded [...]

Two things that are awesome.

The first is nerdy, the second was yummy.
Awesome Thing No. 1 – Me being allowed near historical objects, viz:

The object is a slater’s knife, used surprisingly enough for cutting and applying slate for roofs (I’m convinced the plural of roof should be rooves but hey.). Its forged from iron and has a wooden handle [...]

This is a happy song.

I’m going to disagree with Go Fug Yourself here:

Marion Cotillard’s BAFTA dress is wonderful and craps all over the others (especially Thandie Newton’s, the so called best dress. Ditto Sienna Miller, everyone went loopy over it. It was frumpy in the front and trying too hard in the back. Those sorts of high neck, backless [...]

He got possessed by a dolphin!

The title was Leo’s answer to a video clip question on Big Fat Quiz of the Year last night. Unsurprisingly we got it wrong, but Leo and I (Team Wheelie-Bin)  got equal first with my parents. The tie-breaker from Danny (chemistry student) was ‘What is the melting point of tungsten?’
We may have had an unfair [...]

J’ai baisé beaucoup de grenouilles (I haven’t really)

‘Smack’, by Draco
 
I love this new Threadless design, it reminds me of something out of the old Diana/Twinkle annuals from the 70′/80’s that I have somehow acquired, despite not being born till 1987!
 

 
Anything that has robins on is made 10x better, hence why I chose to post the 1972 over any of the others (the [...]

I am sadly no longer with-bunny, as Wellie died a week and a bit ago. He was the weirdest rabbit we ever had. He behaved more like a dog, and thus will be sorely missed. But not by my leg.
