New Numan CD

OK, a little plug for Gary Numan, as the Boosh say, ‘he’s a pop star but also has a pilot’s license… how cool is that?’ Well Mr Numan is back with a new CD. The new CD has it’s own micro-site here and it has all the info you need to find out more about Jagged (that is what it is called). What is even better is that for the offering of your e-mail address you can get access to a free download – pop star, pilot and giver of free MP3s, even cooler. And even if I do say so myself the track is quite good.

Also bought the second series of The Mighty Boosh on DVD today so I am having a veritable media feast.

Scintillating conversation

Had to go to the Post Office at lunchtime to get the car tax renewed. Thought it would be better to do it at least a day before it is due to miss the rush, however the Post Office was packed so don’t think I saved any time.

But…

… I was subjected to the wonders of local conversation by the old gentleman standing behind me. I was in the queue for about 15 minutes and he spoke one phrase over and over as he witnessed the length of the queue and the time it took to get to the counter.

‘… ‘kin hell’

That was it, over and over until he noticed there were only 3 chashiers working to which he added to this phrase…

‘… 3 chashiers’

… then back to the previous one. Until someone else decided to work, and then he added…

‘… 4 cashiers’

… the art of articulate speech isn’t lost in Bletchley you know.

  • why don’t people understand what I say?
  • trees aren’t orange
  • miscellanious grumbles too small to mention in their own bullet point
