Go and have a beer to celebrate, because today’s the day!
Seasonally Acquired Disorder (S.A.D.) gives way to ‘H.A.P.P.Y.’ as the big guy in the sky starts to work up a sweat and lightens up a bit.
From now on he’s getting higher up in the firmament and it’s downhill all the way, all the way to those long warm summery days of June, fluttery butterflies and chilled gee and tee’s.
For today is the Winter Solstice. Tomorrow, the daylight will last just a bit longer……… I’m feeling better already.
Outrageous discrimination…..
I thought overt discrimination was a thing of the past - but early evening telly has shaken me right down to my smug, pseudo liberal tree hugging, pc pandering Hush Puppies…..
An advert for the ‘OveGlove’ caught my eye. Coated in ‘Kevlar’ and purest ‘Nomex’ (whatever that is) you could plunge your OveGloved hand straight into the Sun itself and hardly break into a sweat…. Apparently, it’s great for the oven, BBQ and other hot surfaces. So far so good. The problem is, they come in packs of ‘one’ – which is just fine for all you one armed people. But what about all us bi-handers, we’re blessed with a full set of hands. One OveGlove just doesn’t cut the mustard. It only fulfils 50% of my total requirement……..
Solutions for this conundrum? Well, cut one hand off – or buy 2 separate ‘OveGloves’……..
I don’t know about you – but I reckon the manufacturers should have been a bit more even-handed……….
A joke for Christmas…..
I saw this on a message board today –
Two dyslexic blokes outside a cake shop. One says to the other – "Can you smell mince pies?"….
"Smell mince pies? I can’t even smell my own name"….
