Er - Yuk

The other day I left my trackie bottoms draped over the end of the bed. When I came to bed Pinot was VERY interested in them.

'Hmm,' I thought, 'I must have run past something interesting and now my trousers smell interesting.'

She was really going for it. Biting, hanging off them with her claws, scrabbling at them etc etc.

Anyway, I put them a bit higher up and we all went to sleep.

Then yesterday I put them on. I could feel something sticking into me. Inside the right trouser leg. Around about my knee.

I reached down and pulled out a weta.

Let me introduce you to the weta again.

Parallel parking

There is lots of free parking around my office. In the interest of geting the one closest to the building I have become VERY good at parallel parking.

But even I was impressed when I managed to wedge myself so tightly between two cars that I was touching at both bumpers. Luckily I recognised the car at the rear. In a bit of a panic I called Nicole (who I work with) to ask her to come down and move her car so that I wasn't quite so tightly wedged.

Nicole came down alright. But onlyonce she had grabbed the digital camera and told the ENTIRE marketing team to look out the window at me and my car.






No idea how I managed to get in there. None.
