i was so tempted to write this in a bukowski way, it’s not true.
but i won’t.
some really good things happened today. i had a lovely lie-in and got up at twelve or so. compluterisational activities with nothing on were undertaken and then it was time to go to tesco for supplies of cider. we spent 3 pints worth of time talking to john in the pub. his favourite words are ‘mooching’ and ‘bosh’. talking to mad people, like myself, in public houses has always been one of my favourite things. i wouldn’t post it as such on simonG.org but i sure do like it.
the next good thing was that i saw a dreadful photograph of me has been selected for this week’s caption competition at simonG.org.
and the best things were that first of all, omally took the time to go to haslemere and find the cache that i had placed and that, secondly, the marvellous people at geocaching.com, after a bit of wriggling, approved and published my cache.
so cheersh and hoorah, you’re all my besht mates, you are.
swig stats: about 4 litres of cider plus 3 pints up the pub.
grub stats: lamb shank with veg
easy listening stats: loads of dionne warwick
sweet dreams, dear readers, sweet dreams…

| I suppose that omally will claim he was just passing? Oh and don’t hate me too much for submitting your piccy H. Comment by The Merman — 8/3/2004 at 1:05 am |
| Just passing? Just bloomin’ passing? Tchoh! I took a detour on the way back fom Kidderminster especially! Gah! Just ‘cos you’re too slow, Merman! Still, I did leave the bubble mixture in the cache for you… |

| Congratulations on the cache approval. It really does look like the most beautiful place in the world, judging by Omally’s photos. We will make a special effort to come and do it soon. (What was the approval problem, if you don’t mind my asking?) Oh, and Omally - could that count as a gratuitous abuse of technology? You want to find the cache, so I browse Hennery’s blog on wifi, cut and paste into a memo, beam it to you, then a minute or two later, your PDA says "Drive 500 metres to the south and turn left"? It certainly impressed me! Comment by Stu — 8/3/2004 at 10:12 am |
| Damn! You rumbled me Stu! Alright, it’s a fair cop, guvnor… |
| That’s a great photo, H! I can now picture you running amok in your local Tesco, diving merrily through all their loopholes and cackling wildly. As for yer GeoCache, it’ll certainly be on my list when we start moving a bit further afield. For now I’m just glaring at the screen every time I see Stu’s name, after spending all day figuring out his Cut Down Cache - the man’s an evil genius. If he’s not, then Sarah is!
