People often complain about women doing their makeup, plucking their eyebrows, or people smoking but sometimes something is odd enough to take a sneaky photo of...This lady came and sat next to me on the bus and the proceeded to eat a bowl of cereal.

Someone understands the banks...

The bank next to my workplace received some rather choice graffiti last week.. Obviously someone understands the banks and has an environmental conscience....

Best job advert ever!

This was in the window of one of my favourite coffee shops in town this summer....I like their style...

Barbie loves language

I've always had a bit of a love of different phrases and local colloquialisms, but today one of my staff came out with the best sentence ever. To set the scene, she had gone to make coffee (I need lots of coffee everyday in the office to keep me alive ;) ) and phoned down to ask this...(written phonetically of course for full effect)...

"Cos' you've go' nairn o' them wee thingamees do you wan na sugar?"

(She had remembered that I'd run out of sweeteners in case you were wondering!)

Elocution lessons....Priceless ;)
