    People who wee in carrier bags, people who use processed cheese as bookmarks, people who masturbate in the travel section... you never know what your day is going to bring, that's for sure.

    I used to love reading travel books when I was younger...but not that much.
    I think....

    I may just be old and cynical, but that's the only one of your list that surprised me.:o

    Me too, but mainly because I think it would break too easily...no? Or stick the pages together. Oh, unless they left in the plastic. That hadn't occurred to me until now. But then it would surely just slide on out?

    Ahh, didn't surprise me - I'm sure viva's mentioned that one before. It does make me feel very unadventurous regarding my choice of bookmark (usually an old receipt or train ticket).

    If it was a library book, we thank you for your choice.

    The processed cheese slice was wrapped, but you can guess what happens when it's squashed in the middle of a book.

    Tbh, my knowledge of processed cheese is not that broad ranging. Does it bust the wrapper?


    All this processed cheese talking is making me want one of those triangle cheeses, laughing cow. ( which macputer takes more seriously than I and wants to correct to, laughing vow)

    We ended up at the Wellcome Collection. Thanks, Nikki.
    No reliance should be placed on the above! Absolutely none, do you hear?

    My pleasure. Hope the scan went well and the results are as desired.

    Doozergirl and I will have to find another way of establishing whether we can turn up the the St. Panc Grand in our trainers and proceed to breastfeed.

    I used to work in Russell Square. (Not in the square, but in an office with an address of Russell Square. Always a great debate whether it was quicker to walk, bus or tube from there to Kings Cross.
