On my travels

This last week I have done a bit of traveling about for work. I've visit south Wales, Edinburgh and Leeds.

a few funny things from my travels...

while walking to the terminal at gatwick from the easyjet parked halfway to Edinburgh (or so it seemed) I noticed a sign on a box:

"for F.O.D use only! If you have a F.O.D problem or a large F.O.D call S.I.T.A on 5447"
What the heck does that mean?! I asked myself, while holding up the queue of people trying to get to their luggage.

while getting onto the train at Leeds to travel home I shuffled my way up the aisle to find my seat, being pushed and elbowed in all kinds of places - everyone getting rather stressed trying to get a seat and all that.
Well I finally found my seat on a table of four, there was two people sitting opposite each other - I asked the Lady if she would mind me sitting next to her gesturing to her bag on the unoccupied seat. Now by the expression on her face you would had thought I'd asked her to kneel down on all fours so I could use her as a foot stool for my journey home! She got very cross, all huffy and puffy towards her fella. I smiled, thanked her for moving her bag and sat down.
It wasn't till a bit later on when another passenger came along and said to this couple that they were sitting in her reserved seats! These two that got all cross with me were sitting in someone else's seat to begin with! I couldn't help but smirk as they sat next to each other, freeing up the seat for its rightful occupant.

on the same journey home from Leeds, a lady sat at the table adjacent to mine. She pulled out a couple of books and got down to her reading sraight away.
I read the spine of the book she had resting on the table...
"hands-on healing for your pets"
I nearly laughed out loud! As Lloyd would say - that's a whole lot of crazy!

thank the lord for my ipod, is all i have to say

The Hair

well, I've had a hair cut...

I decided to take stevo's advice and go to jacks of wimbledon.

It was ok - the nice lady cut away at the mass of hair and generally sorted it out!

Sadly I wasn't offered a drink or a head massage which the website promises.

Here a rubbish picture for those interested








And for those of you who wanted to know what I looked like with very long (but straight) hair...

Darths theme...

I'm sure most of you have seen this before but i like it and wanted to share it with you...

An update...

Ok so today I went along to get my hair cut - thought its about time I went for a trim...

Sadly its been such a long time since I've had my hair cut that the place I "usually" go to has closed down!

Oh well, I guess I'll have to find somewhere else to go.
