Let The Bodies Pile High

I'm sure they'll be scrutinising closelyEach others' testimonyReviewing the long and rambling answersHinting at ill-judged, corporate conspiracies As in turn they attempt to run down the clockWhittling down the patience of questioners
This practiced aristocracy the old-boys speakEntitlement and ill-founded confidence they breathe; You fools, you've tapped into an infinite resourceOf patience and desire for restitutionFounded …

A Story Of Hamsters

I've had a strange time lately. Croûton died 3 weeks ago which was semi-unexpected. She didn't look any less healthy and was still active and enjoying playing with her toys, but was occasionally breathing heavily. It looked a little worrying but then she'd be fine for a few days. Still, I was continually on watch …

But she continues to be as healthy and active as ever. She's an impressive hamster! This was a rare interaction with Croûton as …

I Am Laughing

Well, since I live alone and don't have any friends interested in Eurovision, going online was the only way I could find other peoples' reactions to the result. I can say that the whole thing is way more fun not knowing any public reactions! Nor reading the musical opinions of the terminally-online and overly-obssessed! I …
