Lost in Translation.

Not wanting to be outdone by the latest wave of earthquakes and tsunamis that have been sweeping the planet, Iceland has thrown it hat into the ring with a cheeky left-of-field eruption.

But my question isn't when will planes be able to fly again.

It's how on earth do you pronounce Eyjafiallaioekull ?

And there she goes banging on about her nieces again.

Email conversation with my Brother-in-law.

Him.

Yesterday afternoon there was a long discussion about how reading in the car can make you feel sick, and stories from Eight-year-old about her being sick in the car.

When she had finished Nearly-six-year-old said, "I have never been sick in a vehicle".

Me.

Ten bucks says she won't be able to say that when she's 20.

P.S Vehicle ?

At five-nearly-sixth?

Him.

Yeah i know. she didn't hear that word from me.

' Fuck', yes.

'Vehicle', no.

Holy shit Batman...

....who left George Hamilton out in the sun ?

I've learnt something new today.

From Popbitch, so many of you may know it already but, did you know that Idi Amin had 45 children ?

Don't know about you, but I think that is plain greedy.

In hindsight

This ad hoovered up nearly a month of my life in January.



I really want that month back now.

I have a question for Sarah Jessica Parker.

How come sumo wrestlers are considered to (possibly, depending on who you are) be one of the most unsexy beings on the planet..

...yet baby sumos are considered cute?

It's a bit like large arses. On adults they're, well, large arses.

Yet on kids, they're impossibly cute.

I understand I am making a good story of it, but I do think I have a point. But what think you?

A conversation

'What's Soandso actually like?' Ask I.

'Boring'.

'Really?'

'Colossally.'

'Ok.'

'Sensationally, titanically, overwhelmingly boring.'

'Riiiiiiight.'

'In fact, she is so dull she could bore a not-very-highly-evolved species into extinction.'

Mental note to self: do not get trapped at a party with this person.
