I keep telling you, we here at BOOJUM! (Art, Steve, Oscar and I, Conrad) actively avoid politics. Although it is National Day in Portugal today. Art?
Ah, yes |
Anyway, that had nothing at all to do with what I wanted to say. For today is - World Gin Day! Can't stand the stuff myself, odious liquid as far as Conrad is concerned.
Pay attention, this pays off shortly |
Woold you believe it. |
No! Not metal-inert gas welding. Knitting! Art?
See - knitting.
"But the gin?" I hear you quibble. "What -"
From the old knitting phrase - 'knit one, purl one". The best I could manage at short notice.
Now, the Intro is over, let the motley begin.
Meanwhile, Back In Dangerland -
Conrad is continuing to work through his Wiki list of "Extremely Hazardous Substances", and has come across a really nasty piece of work called "Nickel Tetracarbonyl". I ought to post a picture of the 3D model for you. Art?
Like a Dada caltrop |
The Aftermath Of Art
No! I'm not referring to the sub-human, coal-eating, sump-dwelling troglodyte who puts up the blog's pictures and photos**. I refer to Art itself, which can be defined as <thinks> stuff you look at. Yesterday the family travelled to Gomorrah-on-the-Irwell to see a premier of Darling Daughter's presentation art work for her degree course, her and her course contemporaries.
None of which has anything to do with what follows.
Afterwards we said goodbye to Tom - Goodbye Mister Tom? - and headed to a nearby branch of Nandos, timing it just right before a whole collection of hungry students and parents arrived also. Art?
The detritus |
We did it justice! Looking at all that Art, you see.
Wicked Neglectful Humans
Sadly, Edna Wunderhund had to stay at The Mansion yesterday evening as there is a strict No Dogs policy within the hallowed walls of Manchester Metropolitan University. This meant leaving her for as long as four and a half hours, during which time she had gotten her sulk on. Art?
"FINE! I'll just lie here then." |
Empire Loyalists
No! Nothing to do with 'Star Wars'. I refer to the British Empire, which I would like to point out was achieved and managed without a single ruddy mobile phone <Mister Hand intervenes to edit a 20 page rant> nor "Focus Group Consultations".
Where was I?
Oh, right |
The United Empire Loyalists in bronze |
Chin chin!
