Slacker Shorts

Quote of the moment:
"I should be more like Prill - she gets all the boys!" - Rob at le party-age, discovered written on a piece of paper on my desk today.

Got some shorts in Peacocks in Chelmsford today, for my travails travels:



You're damn right, that's an interesting picture :p

Zulu went for a swim in a pond in the wood today, then when I called him out he charged straight at me and smashed his chest against my leg, just as he does when he charges at Ben. He seemed a bit surprised when I didn't move and he bounced off! The foolish dog left a huge wet imprint on my trousers too. D'oh! He nearly made up for it when we got back to the road by putting up a pheasant. The bird flew off low across the road and Zulu was left standing at the top of the ditch with a mouth full of feathers, looking very miffed. I'm not sure my mum would have appreciated yet another one to pluck and gut though!

I watched Mulholland Falls last night because of the cr-r-racking cast, including Nick Nolte, John Malkovich, Michael 'Mr Blonde' Madsen and Chris 'Nice Guy Eddie and brother of Sean' Penn. The real star, however, was the flat rubber cosh that Nick Nolte (playing a dirty L.A. cop) used to break various fingers, noses, jaws and injure assorted other bodyparts. Imagine if we'd watched it in a cinema with Jim...

Jim: it means that you'd come out, pick up something hard and try and slap us around the face with it, in the spirit of re-enactment that you always seem to get from the cinema.

Prill: the point wasn't that you get boys, the point is that ROB WANTS BOYS.

:p
