If you're feeling at all glum this morning, I really do recommend that you read [info]davywavy's guide to picking up girls.

This was meant to be a comment on Kyle's post here about the passing of Momma cat, but it raged out of control and grew too long, so I'm linking to it on my own journal.

I'd also like to share a happy story, if it's appropriate. )

Am I missing something here? You can't build on it or keep the public away to enjoy it in private, so... what's the point?

Sadly, I found out a week or two ago that the Taurus Steak House is no more :o( According to their website, the staff and owner of this Welsh bastion of after hours munching just couldn't take anymore of the grim behaviour exhibited there every weekend. I fully concur with their thoughts behind why St Mary's Street has ended up like a scene from Dante's inferno and applaud [info]xxxrated's (from whom I nabbed the second link) decision to site the new Bogiez night well away from it. How very depressing.

Baaad weather predictors. Yesterday they said today would be sunny and warm with a high of 18 deg in my area. Woke up to grey skies this morning and a predicted high of 13, which will feel like 10 :o( So much for my planned picnic lunch next to the outdoor pool!

Spookeh!

I'm fairly ambivalent on the subject of ghosts, I did see something very bizarre once (in the company of boyfriend-at-the-time who also saw it), but I suspect it could probably be explained by a natural occurance in some way. But anyway, some of the photos featured are clearly the result of long exposures, but a couple are quite intriguing - I fail to see how the shot in seventh place could be explained away by a stick in the water!

Never buy faux suede lampshades in a fawny-camel colour. They may look nice unlit, but turn a completely dreadful retro-orange when the bulb shines.
