Bedtime...

...but I wrote this in RtS today and it really amused me more than it should:

Liz gaped at him. ‘You’re… kidding, right? You thought The Elephant Man was actually going to be about elephants?’
‘Well, clearly it wasn’t, Fish. And I was sorely disappointed. I thought that lopsided bloke was going to care for the elephants, or train them or something. It could have been a heartwarming tale for all the family instead of a miserable film about a man with a lumpy face who goes to the opera and dies.’


I am needlessly proud of the description of the plot of The Elephant Man as 'a man with a lumpy face who goes to the opera and dies'. I should write taglines, really I should.

Well! I was treated while out today - I had a polite little old lady admire Vi! Yes, you read right, polite! She actually asked if she could look at Vi. No complaints about the big floppy hat at all. Old ladies all seem to thoroughly approve of her name too.

Have decided to go dahhhhn Bluewa'aaaahhhh tomorrow - it shall be an adventure!

We spent Hubs' lunchtime today regaling Vi with TV themes from our childhoods - Namely Postman Pat (I amused Hubs by telling him that until fairly recently I thought the the lyrics went 'There'll be knocks, rings, "let us through your door"'. Hubs then told me that he only just realised Huey Lewis was a White guy. We are both so smart!), Pigeon Street (we needed some help from youtube for this - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vSIizC7WkiU ) and The Wombles, which decided sounds like it was written by Paul McCartney. I then impressed Hubs with my Macca impression. Apparently it's rather good.

On my youtubing travels looking for the Wombles opening credits, I found this little piece of Hobbity comedy gold BTW - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DmXo6k401fM

And, randomly, this Crystal Maze parody from Adam & Joe - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L8McKX8t1BA

Enjoy!
