Random things

[bunn]

... Met two enormously fat people walking their cocker spaniel this morning, seemingly for the first time ever.  Dog was pretty porky too, but oh, so pleased to be outside!   I hope they keep it up.

... Most of the shops are just starting to put up Christmas stuff, but one shop I passed had in one window a big poster warning people not to accidentally roast hedgehogs in their bonfires tomorrow, and in the other window, a furry toy robot with a sign round his neck saying 'I am lost, I was left in this shop.  Does anyone know where I belong?'  Shades of Bagpuss.

... I bought a delicious looking bun from the bakery for breakfast, and when they scanned it in I found that its name was a 'Lardy Slice'. No illusions there then!

... everything smells pleasantly of woodsmoke.

Mmmm, lardy cake. I haven't had lardy cake in years.

Lardy cake I have had, but this was slightly different, it looked more like a fruited bread bun lightly dusted with sugar than your all-out, unashamed 'I CONTAIN 10,000 CALORIES' lardy cake. Only on buying it did I discover the hidden heaviness! It was delicious.

Surely robots are sort of metallic, instead of furry?

usually, I agree. But this was quite clearly a robot, and quite clearly furry. Weird.

What about the robot dog from the original Battlestar Galactica?

Your Bengal appears to have two heads and only one body. Is it a sort of Zaphod Beeblebungle?

Oh very good! :-D

Actually, I prefer Bunglebrox, I think. :-)
