Was in a line to get a small batch of groceries this morning. Was about 6 people in the queue. I unfortunately, have occasional allergies and sneezed 3 times (using appropriate considerate and approved methods) and magically and pretty much instantly, I was at the front of the line :)

 

Right now I can't really think of a better crowd dispersal method.

 

I did make a point of mentioning allergies to the people around me, out of courtesy.

"Hedge funds have made more than £1bn in just two weeks by betting on the downfall of major airlines."

 

 

 

This, provided my Kiwisaver managers were on the ball. Every cloud should have a silver lining.

That I don't have to iron any shirts for a month.





Sometimes I use big words I don't always fully understand in an effort to make myself sound more photosynthesis.

It surprised you that not as many people enjoy pickled dog testicles in eyeball juice, as you? :)

That IronH, from who I bought some headphones to get through all this, has organised looking after the needs of their elderly neighbours.

 

 

Made me smile a lot and gives me confidence that we'll get through this together.

The new Pearl Jam songs that have been released leading up to the full Album going live on Friday. 

 

First album in 6 years and they've allowed Mike Mcready to cut loose and wail on his guitar on a couple of the 3 songs that have been released. 

 

 

 

Did I mention that I am a massive PJ fan?

10 was my favourite Album, I've liked indivdual songs since, but since I have some extra time, I may try this new album :)

 

I went to the concert they did in NZ, but peoples behaviour was exceptionally bad and I end up covered in booze (which I don't drink) and so I left about 1.5 songs into the set after putting up with idiots for well over an hour prior.

With no traffic noise the morning bird song seemed a lot louder this morning. 





Here is a crazy notion, lets give peace a chance.
