Morning coffee

As inhabitants of The Small Glass Planet will know, I usually meet Dive on a Saturday morning for a fix of coffee, a "grump" about the previous week and a wander around the book shops and back streets of Norwich looking for anything interesting.

Several signs have been seen recently which, as we are in Norfolk, could cause some confusion with certain members of the shopping public.

I don't agree with this one. The Norfolk landscape is superb any time of the year. Huge skies of bright blue dotted with cotton wool clouds in the summer, menacing storm clouds in the autumn and winter and an ever changing carpet of fresh worked fields, ranging from rich dark brown through green, purple, brilliant yellow and warm gold as the year passes.

Another misleading offer found in an office supply store which boasts a limb replacement service if you buy a chair!

We spotted a number of other rather amusing advertising faux pas and as the festive season is now arriving in our shops, I'm sure this could develop into a hobby.
Dive, don't forget your camera next week.

Catch up

So apart from work, what does a Deity get up to to keep him from Blogger for so long?

Well if you want the low-down on the Goodwood Revival this year, pop over to Dive's and see what you missed if you didn't attend. (and this one too)

That was good day #1

Good day #2 was a trip to London to visit the relatives. Well we are somewhat removed from them but with evolution and all that, there must be a link somewhere.
This is why they became extinct, supermodel diet regimes and heads full of plaster.

You should quit while you are still "a head" (well I thought it was amusing).






Good day #3 was at one of my favourite places, Twickenham.
I am usually here to watch rugby but I made an exception for The Police world tour, plus it was a chance to get on the pitch and see what it's like to look back up to where we sit.


Below is the view from our seats


It was one of the best gigs I've seen and the sound quality was superb.




They do look old on the big screens but they still put on a phenomenal show.

We have an open day at work this Sunday and I am taking Big Bro, so check out his post on that because he is excited about it and it's just an extra bloody day at work to me.
If you like big boys toys it should be good day #4.

Transmissions will be resumed shortly

It's been a while, so if anyone is out there, I should have some time to post some of whats been going on since June (ish).

It's mostly been work but I got to see The Police at Twickenham a couple of weeks ago so there's some piccies etc and if you follow my Bro dive, you will know I popped up to London with him to see the dino's and stuff.
Oh, and Goodwood.

Yours truly enjoying a pint of the Black stuff on the pitch at Twickers before the gig.



It was a good gig.
