Plenty of money in killing people but not a lot in keeping them alive - it`s a funny old world ?

Cruise Missiles cost a million pounds EACH!!! and over 1000 were fired in 24hrs into Iraq.

Bored ?

someone left an egg-slicer in the office

a new line - two bits

one does a trivial pursuit "cheese" cut and the other is a conventional
slicer - 8 or 10 wires

looks like the sound hole on an acoustic guitar

it strums like a guitar

i check the relationship between the "strings"

i plink about for a bit and can get the opening bars to beethoven`s "ode to
joy" on the go

a colleague walks in and i offer to stun him with this musical extravegance

it was like a 747 (completely over his head!)

Breast Cancer

.

I got really fed up with the people at work buying charity wristbands from E-Bay that I decided to start supplying official ones at cost price. This means that the money at least goes to the right place - even if it means I have to pay up front.

£16 in someone's back pocket (+ P&P) for a £1.50 Nike Anti-Racism Band - with none of the profit going to the campaign is an absolute travesty !

I've just got a lovely email from Breast Cancer Care giving me permission to use their images on my blog - which was nice :-)
