What's got 8 legs and one eye?
Apr. 1st, 2011 06:48 pmApril Fool's Day made glorious by 2 things.
Firstly the whole A4 page shopping list written for me by my daughter who, knowing how much I hate shopping, illustrated it and filled it with jokes. I opened it in the street outside the Edinburgh Woollen Mill and had to lean against the wall, wheezing with laughter.
And secondly the 1911 feature on Youtube, which doesn't work on every video but does on some. For instance the one I linked to a couple of weeks ago with flogging and pirates and stuff. Just click where it says 1911 in the bottom right corner.
April Fool's day also annoying because I want to write - desperately - but - I dunno. Maybe I need the comfort of a deadline or something. I've submitted a very short, for me, story to the UK LGBT authors freebie anthology but felt it was a bit of a cheek to try and write anything for the paid for one. However there's a nice tight deadline for that so I guess I could pretend and try to fool myself into buckling down and doing something - ANYTHING.
*sigh* I think I'll read my shopping list again. It has a big picture of Errol the dragon in the middle of it.
Oh and for those of you who maybe wondering what HAS got 8 legs and one eye ( Read more... )
