Introducing...

I've been missing our kittens a lot recently and decided to bring them closer... from now on they'll be employed as critics and commentators of various posts :)

Also, I've been updating the template of the blog, so if you come along to read something and the page is totally out of order - no fear, it's all under control!

Something amusing too... got a bell at the door yesterday... picked up the receiver on the intercom:

Some Woman (sw): excuse me, do you speak French?
me: ummm... no
sw: oh... does anyone in your household speak French?
me: ummm... no
sw: I'm looking for a French tutor... do you know anyone in your block of flats who speaks French?
me: ummm... no, sorry
sw: ok, have a lovely weekend!
me: you too!

I suppose that's one way to look for something you need - just go door-to-door.


Marvin: "Whoa... first time in cyberspace ... this is exciting... I better go scratch something!"







Unix: "*yawn* so am I going to get extra patting for being on this thing?"

  1. It almost sounds like the start of some joke. All that was needed was for the woman to accuse you of false advertising...

  3. Rumours of my "dropping off the face of the earth" have been highly exaggerated.

  5. Could also be tofu-duck... those people at Shanghai Dumpling place do wonders in the kitchen... ;)

  6. mmm... tofu. Of course the definition of what constitues "tofu" in Shanghai Dumpling is highly subjective.

    MSG - bringing out the flavour in unidentifiable meat since 1909.

  7. hey - the main thing is, is that Olchiks accusations of you being a duck, have been unfounded, for you are a tofu duck that runs on MSG... not sure if that adds to speed or smth...
