Rows of owlses, originally uploaded by synx508.
I forgot to mention this, but it is an important moment. We have lived in this house for nearly 2 years. The owls have lived in tissue-paper cocoons in a series of [...]

new hair, originally uploaded by Purplekitten.
Deep Purple by Special Effects stains like nothing on earth. I went to get out of the bath this morning when my husband pointed out that I was roughly the colour of Ribena. [...]
On the 07:38 to Basingstoke, there is generally a herd of college kids sharing the train with me. Mostly, they are unobjectionable, but there is one young man who insists on wearing his trousers only half-way up so that anyone walking behind gets a good view of his scrawny emo-kid be-panted butt.
What the hell is [...]
A friend of mine, who shall remain nameless as one day he hopes to be a respected lawyer, came out with the following (during a conversation about latin phrases used in law):
“assuming polar bear poo freezes, so decomposition is very slow, if the ice melts due to global warming, will we get flooded with water [...]
Never have I been more aware of not being ‘one of the boys’ than I am right now. There is a pool match at the pub, arranged between the two male members of IT and two other people from the company. As it’s not unusual for the whole IT department to go out to the [...]
Yet again I’m stealing wi-fi in order to foist my opinions upon the world. I’m perched upon the sofa of my mother-in-law, fretting and eeking about the fact that I have a very minor operation scheduled for 07.45 tomorrow. Not that I want it to be a major op. I’ve just never been operated on [...]

Strawberry, originally uploaded by Purplekitten.
Owing to an impulsive plant-purchase, we are currently cultivating strawberries.
This is the first of the crop, and hopefully there will be plenty more to follow.
This strawberry was the nicest strawberry I have ever tasted: [...]
Rest easy, I am not temporally displaced, this is not an Easter reference. I merely found myself musing on the sudden insertion of both into my life and wished to comment thereon.
For the previous seven and twenty years of my life, I had remained blissfully unaware of the abundance of rabbits that grace almost every [...]
Before I married philb, I shared a house and a life with another man, and a varying number of cats. Victoria Elvina, the eldest, was a regal, totally-black lady who ruled the household with an iron paw. We lost her in 2001: found her lying on the ground outside, having died some time during the [...]
I’ve found it! That is, a phone that can contain my life cheerfully and still be useful as a phone.
The 9300i is fantastic. Okay, it’s a little bigger than my old phone, but it has to be to fit that glorious, lavish screen in. And boy do I appreciate it. No more lugging round those [...]
