My flat has lately become a meeting place for the above mentioned society. I don’t really know what to do except to let them out the window when I see them alive and collect and photograph them for posterity when I find them dead.
I suspect though that it’s the toasty warm of central heating that’s keeping them going and once they get outside they freeze and perish anyway.
At least it’s not cockroaches.
hilaryous Originally uploaded by Lloyd Davis. OK, so something weird happened the other day. I cut my hair myself – I know that you know this… after all it’s obvious that I’m a self-cut man. Oh god, I don’t like the way this one’s going. Ahem. So I had my clippers out and was using…
The heat on the tube and the introduction of fans to keep people more comfortable was a little news blip yesterday. Annie had of course covered it a few weeks ago and I meant to comment at the time, but y’know… didn’t. The issue that doesn’t seem to have come up at all is how…
A rainy start to this morning as I make my way through puddles with a damp left arm. Talking about umbrella loss and other irrelevant minutiae, an update on Public Service Conversations and my decision to move it over to Movable Type and start to tell you about my syndication idea but leave you hanging…
coffee one – leon Originally uploaded by russelldavies They are lovely. I wish there was one in the West End as expansive as this one in Spitalfields. I tried the new one in (upper) Regent Street today and it was lovely with predictably lovely staff but I really wanted to spread out a bit and…

Answers on a postcard or in the comments please to:1. What were they comparing the size of?2. Which of them do you believe? [btw I’m writing…
State of my onions Originally uploaded by Lloyd Davis. Oh mercy me! The old one’s are, of course, the best. The opportunity to share with you, mah felluh blogizens, “The State of My Onions At Rest” was irresistable to my pathetic sense of humour. Eat your heart out Dubya.
That’s really strange – we’ve had the same problem, although on a smaller scale. I have never in my life seen so many ladybirds in the winter, or indoors at any time of year. Some of the ones I’ve seen have been huge too – there was a 19-spotter the other day that got tangled up in my hair! Thankfully I disentangled it and put it outside none the worse for wear. But it is a very odd phenomenon, all these ladybirds.
Maybe they’re all searching for blokeybirds to hook up with?
I’ve got the same problem – was just about to twitter about it! I think using their dessicated corpses for art is definitely a way forward. It’s global warming telling us “sticking macaroni shells to paper is sooo last century”.
