Small Mercies

Edit: sadly, the image below is lost to posterity since the link didn’t update, nor was the image itself transferred when the site moved to a new domain a while back.

Can be viewed at my flickr site:

lots of loo roll

He even had the cheek to come and borrow the same marker pen!

Just to prove a point

My mate Andy, pored scorn upon the idea of me having organised stuff and things on shelves – he said my idea of tidy was separate piles of stuff on the floor. He said that photographs might change his mind.

So here they are:
CDs
Books and DVDs
The back side of the shelves at the foot of my bed
Big books in the metallic green chipboard shelves I made in spare time in a technology lesson twelve years ago
More books, and on the top shelf – borrowed stuff and the ‘Complete Babylon 5 Universe’
Comics
The front side of the shelves at the foot of the bed
more shelves that stand beside the bed.

Please forgive the dodgy chopping I resorted to in order to provide composite/kinda-composite images of taller units. (The CD shelves have a shelf of books running below them out of shot.

If anybody else has anything they want photographic proof of (within reason) comment and I’ll see what I can do.

This post has been brought to you by the letters ‘bored’ and ‘easily led’ and the number ‘shiny (almost) new camera phone’.

edit: links are all broken and point at a previous version of the site on a different domain.

A Story: Part 3 – My Childhood Romance

We got dressed up and had a wedding when I was six years old.
I promised I’d love her until the end of time.
She said she’d love me for ever.
I double dared her back and said we’d be together longer than that.
We pricked our thumbs and mixed our blood.

I was too young to have learned:
be careful what you sign,
never make a promise you can’t keep,
and
no matter how you put it off, the piper must be paid or she’ll come calling.

“E.G.” is not an abreviation of, “Example”!

That is all,
