Hall’s Extra Strong

I abandoned the Soothers as they were covered in paper, so I resorted to a packet of Halls Extra Strong that I found at home. When I excitedly opened the wrapper to get swift releif from my sore throat I was distraght to find that the thing was covered in sand. And the next one, and the next one, and the next one. There’s no picture as I’m too upset to even contemplate picking up the camera…

I caught an arachnid intruder sauntering across my landing. While it’s back was turned I bravely managed to catch the intruder. I’m sure I saw tears.

Holograms

Suddenly thought that you don’t see holograms much these days. Cereals don’t have free holograms in them any more and Cheddar Gorge has probably removed it’s selection of holograms for something cooler like Tupperware. Even the internet doesn’t seem that bothered. The best I could find was a website with a selection of holographic portraits of luminaries such as The Queen, Gary Lineker and Seal.
