One of the great things while doing a season is finding out other peoples education/ employment history. For example when I started doing seasons I tried to get a job as a plongeur but was rejected for some spurious reason. It turns out that Harriet(Jump) applied for a job and was declined as an elf at Father Christmas's grotto in Scandinavia. This is strange as many peopl

comes another story of silliness. Not as blonde as sticking certain body parts into a blender (rated 87 on the Clairol nice and easy scale) but still lighter than Natural Auburn.

Items such as Ipods, glowsticks, magnets, marbles, coke & chicken and video cameras (to name just a few) have all been reduced to powder. In a similar vien(sic) dozy blonde Eliza (Powder white) is back in the news a

Late Wednesday night in Kalico saw some very nice ladies running a promotion for Russian standard vodka. When it came to tasting their wares it was another story. Magicians call it misdirection. Look over here while I do something over here. I was so busy starring at the window dressing that I only realised the vodka was warm when it hit the back of my mouth and I almost w
