glimmer

I feel a glimmer of hope approaching on the very distant horizon. Will not say any more about this, until things sort themselves out.

Currently listening to DJ Vadim and lovin’ it. Got a couple of tracks from Kathrin de Boer in it - who is the lead singer for Belleruche (see previous posts), she has such a great voice.

Larry (not Ellison) catches up on Oracle

As promised:

One of the best putts I’ve seen, from the Masters 2007, by Rory Sabbatini:

horse, bath, neck

Fragments from some dreams last night:

1. Being chased around a fun-fayre (yes the medieval spelling is intentional) by people on horses; stealing pizzas and putting them outside metal-railings, to be picked up later on; taking pictures of a church.

2. Having to remove a bath from aunt’s house, but when I came to remove it - my cousin was washing up breakfast bowls in the bath, that had Alpen in them.

3. Watching somebody push a girl down some stairs and she broke her neck.

4. Talking to my aunt and uncle about them looking forward to a holiday in Belgium - they were showing me an atlas of where they were going.

Pictures from walk on the Malvern Hills today:

Need to find a mobile with a better macro mode:

as I’ve tried to take a picture of a ladybird that was living in the front room, but couldn’t get enough resolution.

sorry

Move your mouse and Incy will follow:

Apologies in advance to Saj :)

howl

Strange dream about having to kill a wolf with a sword, by cutting its throat.
Then another dream about having to sit a test for 10 year-olds, as myself now. I failed the test on getting -1 + -1 = X wrong. I had to go and see the headmaster called Mr Ogilvy, to explain why I failed the test.

wedding

Had a really long dream about my wedding (not going to happen) last night. It was almost lucid in places, where I felt that I was controlling what was happening.
It was all very happy, with people giving speeches and so on. The only problem was that I never got to see my bride in the dream! So - I have no pointers as to who I should be talking to now :)

hic

Why do I only hiccup once (no more, no less) when drinking cold lemonade? What’s the diaphragm up to?

A VERY lucky bowling game for somebody:

smelly

what is humour?

Why do we laugh at different things? What purpose does it serve, other than to support a feeling of well-being and dissipate stress?

This occurred to me when watching the Comedians’ Comedian on Channel 4 (hosted by the numpty Jimmy Carr). There was a sketch on there with Spike Milligan doing a weather report - I was in hysterics. I was also in hysterics at the end of Very Bad Things, where Cameron Diaz (mucho beautiful) is in shock at the state of her new family.
