This blog is asleep. Perhaps it will wake up one day.

This one over here is wide awake → gilest.org/notes

Don’t put that in your mouth

Stop all that leaping about

Don’t use that tone of voice with me

I said don’t put that in your mouth. Euw

No, we’re not buying that

Because I’m not made of money

Well we have to earn money before it comes out of the cash machine

Look where you’re going for heaven’s sake

I said look where you’re going

Now say sorry to the nice lady

Like you mean it

What’s that on your shirt? Goodness me

Mind where you’re walking

I said stop all that leaping about, you’re going to hurt someone. Or yourself

I told you to stop leaping didn’t I? Rub it better

Could you carry something please? I’m running out of hands

Well it is all your stuff

Is that thing in your mouth again?

The next bit of naughtiness means we’re going straight home

I said the next bit of – hey! Are you even listening? Hello?

Bought the latest Monocle (Nov 2008) on a whim (I liked the front cover image). Wondered about a subscription, then found to my utter bafflement that it would cost *more* than just buying the mag in the newsagent every month. This is surely bonkers. I thought subscriptions were supposed to save you a few quid.
