Cats are Stupid

Several comfortable sofas, a couple of baskets, even the odd bed to lie on, but no, the cat decides on the vegetable box.

No Pets Allowed

...but apparently foxes are OK.
I have mice too but unfortunately I haven't been able to take any photos of them, and I decided that perhaps nobody really wants to see the end result of mouse vs. properly set mousetrap.

From Snow To Sand... and back to Snow!

From Snow in the UK to sunshine in Tobago... and I was delayed on my way home because of 4 inches of snow at Gatwick!

What Women Really Want....

I was trying to find a recipie for cake and I came across this list that I made up a long, long time ago. It made me laugh and it's still very true.


1. A Hot Bath
2. A Duvet
3. Chocolate
4. Trashy Movies
5. Boiled Eggs (actually, a lot of people hate these but I love them)
6. Things that smell nice
7. A bottle of wine

Combining 2, 3, 4 and 7 before 1 is of course completely indulgent but brilliant.

So True...

This picture, printed at PHD comics, with the footnote "Usually, my research interests add up to more than what I have time for, and some interests take up more time than what they are supposed to." just sums up my time in research. And could probably be subtly altered to fit pretty much any job. I would also like to edit "why other people's blogs are more interesting than yours" to "Facebooking"
