Okay, my humbugging was a bit previous. I am warm again. A nice man came around and disconnected my cooker, albeit for money. He was rather more middle-class than you might normally associate with the term “gasman”. He kept mentioning the previous job he had been doing for “this chap” round the corner, we spent most of the time talking about Asterix and Tintin, and when I said I was going downstairs for a minute his reply was “Righto, skipper”.


Notwithstanding the fact that [livejournal.com profile] chiller saw the same programme as me and posted about this first, I tentatively suggest that we already have a Quote of the Year (or at least easily top five):
”Every 18 minutes a child dies from a landmine. It used to be every 22, so it’s getting better.”

Heather Mills McCartney



And, via [livejournal.com profile] judge_death, I urge the reader to meditate on this Japanese proverb:

Curry aji no unko ka unko aji no curry ka docchi ga ii?
Which is better: curry-flavoured shit, or shit-flavoured curry?

Well, it's shit-flavoured curry isn't it? Because then at least you're eating curry, not shit. Plus, I've never eaten shit and it might (might) be nice.
