Chucking it dahn at the Castle this morn, oodles of lack of
cold, more than a whimsy of atmospheric movement and no sight of solar stuff at
all.
And all the skywater is cocking up the interweb
thingy-again...
More than a bit late, been dahn to Tesco on the stale bread,
gruel and his Maj’s food run, and overslept from our grand day out dahn in the
motor museum place.
But it was enjoyable, we saw lots of internal combustion
driven vehicles, had a bit of a walk, thought about happy slapping some
teenagers until we realised that none of us could run fast or far enough to
carry it out so we settled for a cup of coffee and a bun near the toilets.
Followed by a "proper" roast beef, yorkshires, roast tatties, and some green stuff for lunch dahn by the seaside.
A bit of flash stuff
A bit of nostalgia
Something for the donor riders
And something to make happy men very old
And as always where there are motors there is always a dodgy
dealer.
A school has banned parents from watching their children
take part in sports events - unless they pass criminal records check.
The Isambard Community School in Swindon, Wilts, insists all
parents must clear a Criminal Records Bureau check to weed out potential
paedophiles.
The school introduced the new measure at the start of the
term to prevent strangers from accessing other parts of the school from the
playing fields.
A spokesman said: "It is with regret that from now on
we will be unable to accommodate parents wishing to spectate at our sports
fixtures unless they are in possession of an up-to-date Swindon Council CRB
check.
Oh dear here we go again...
There is apparently a new craze among students, in order to
get smashed quicker than imbibing they have “invented” the alcohol enema.
When Alexander "Xander" Broughton, 20, was
delivered to the hospital in Knoxville Tennessee after midnight on Sept. 22,
his blood alcohol level was measured at 0.448 percent — nearly six times the
intoxication that defines drunken driving in the state. Injuries to his rectum
led hospital officials to fear he had been sodomized.
Police documents
show that when an officer interviewed a fellow fraternity member about what
happened, the student said the injuries had been caused by an alcohol enema.
"It is
believed that members of the fraternity were utilizing rubber tubing inserted
into their rectums as a conduit for alcohol," according to a police
report.
While Broughton
told police he remembered participating in a drinking game with fellow members
of the Pi Kappa Alpha chapter, he denied having an alcohol enema. Police
concluded otherwise from evidence they found at the frat house, including boxes
of Franzia Sunset Blush wine.
"He also had
no recollection of losing control of his bowels and defecating on
himself," according to a university police report that includes photos of
the mess left behind in the fraternity house after the party.
Oh shit....well bugger me-or him...
Some sadistic Muppet has come up with a spiffing idea, a double-decker
cable car, reportedly the first one in the world, near the city of Lucerne. The
cable car, christened The Cabrio, soars up the Stanserhorn Mountain at a
dizzying height of 1.9km carrying 60 passengers at a time, with room for 30 on
the open-air top deck.
The journey starts in the village of Stans, about a
15-minute car or train ride from downtown Lucerne. The cable car base station
sits at 711 meters above sea level, and to access it one must first ride one of
the world’s oldest functioning funiculars. Dating from 1891, the wood and
wrought-iron funicular that brings passengers from the village of Stans to the
Cabrio base station has a charm of its own - its vehicles adorned with frosted
glass and curtains.
Funicular that....
Julie Smith decided to open up a luxury five-star hotel for
chickens due to the huge demand for the service in her rural Kent community.
She was inspired to create the hen hotel, named Fowlty
Towers, after being regularly asked to look after her friends feathered pets
while they were on holiday.
'A lot of people asked what they would do when they went on
holiday with the hens,' explained Ms Smith, who has 13 hens of her own.
'So I started looking after them as a favour and then I
thought well it might be a bit of a business and we'll try and get them
sorted.'
Free from their chicken coops, the feathered birds can relax
in five-star accommodation or roam free in the hotel's fox-proof garden.
The birds are also taken for walks and on trips to the local
village pub.
Apparently British tourists are flocking to a new shooting
range in Las Vegas which offers them the chance to shoot weapons like those
used in the raid to kill Osama bin Laden.
The people behind Machine Guns Vegas say it is unlike any
other gun range - featuring some of the most high-powered weapons in the world
alongside the glamour of Sin City.
And they estimate as many as 20% of their customers are from
the UK.
For $200 (£124) customers can choose from a range of guns -
one modelled on those used by US Navy Seals, who raided Bin Laden's compound in
Pakistan last year
The range has also teamed up with a nearby company
which provides tourist flights in fighter jets to offer a James Bond-style
experience.
Are we really that gullible?
And finally:
A man who was told
to wait 10 hours for a doctor to fix his sliced lip decided to use dental floss
and a sewing needle to do it himself.
Allan Dell, 26,
from Stuart Park, in Darwin, said he had no medical background but had pierced
meat in the kitchen.
"I grew up in
the bush in country NSW and I'm also a chef so I'm not too strange with
threading meat ... I used dental floss and a sewing needle - but I sterilised
it all first," he said.
Mr Dell had his lip
sliced from the base of his nose down to his teeth in a "pure
accident" that saw him hit in the face with a guitar.
He also cracked one
of his teeth in the same accident. He said he went to the emergency department
at Royal Darwin Hospital about 2.15am Saturday but was told he should "try
Palmerston" or wait until the doctor arrived for the day shift.
"I walked in
with my face half split - and (they said) come back tomorrow," Mr Dell
said.
After pondering on
it, he decided dental floss was the best way to go. "I think Crocodile
Dundee did it once," Mr Dell said.
"It
worked," he said.
Only a ten hour
wait? Wimp...
That’s it: I’m
orf to measure me black hole
And today’s
thought:
I never got one of
those with my Honda...
