OMG, OMG!!!


And.... this is what the view from the deck is supposed to look like...

Things I have discovered this weekend...
  • Sweet, sweet, irony.
  • Digging 8 X 600mm holes through pure Bulli clay, while back-breaking, gives excellent upper-arm definition.
  • Nigel Lythgoe is a complete waste of space who wouldn't recognise talent if it jumped up and bit him on the arse... Those gorgeous gorgeous slavic cheekbones, gone forever from my screen...
  • Small children + ponies = complete hysteria. There is now a small white pony agisting (?) in mum and dad's front paddock. Misses H & M discovered this fact on Saturday. Much jumping up and down and squealing ensued... The owner of said pony came around with another pony yesterday... a 20 year old brown pony who had been en route to the knackers. He's now company to the white one, and sedate enough for the girls to have their very first pony ride.... HOW EXCITEMENT!!!!!!! We're doomed.

Update: Required Reading for the day - Emma by Jane Austen.

I didn't see "So you think you can dance" last night - which Slavic cheekbones are no more?

KR - Stanislav, the ballroom dancing man. I can't believe they trashed him. He was amazing. Shows you what I know... I thought his Pase Doble was unrool.

Shroom - You would break the poor pony... hasten his journey to the glue factory. And yes, it's all we get at the moment. blah blah blah pony blah pony blah blah blah. They're not impressed with my suggestion that they take the soon-to-be-obtained donkey to Pony Club. Or the alpaca. Got no class these girls...

Yeah, mum's decided she wants to adopt one of those old-age donkeys. Don't ask.

"So you think you can dance" is the greatest show on tv! How did I only discove it last night?? My bro and I spent the evening trying to perfect our hip hop moves. We suck, but we certainly thought, in a drunken stupour, we could dance.

OMel - jump on the bandwagon - there's plenty of room, everytone else has been writing me off! I've turned into a dancing expert. "Geez - look at his feet! Completely useless! I could do better than that &etc &etc..." Love It!
