Random Observations

  1. I am now in a position to declare that America is superior to the U.K. There are certainly many ways in which the U.K. is much better than the U.S. For one, consummerism hasn’t completely overtaken every aspect of life in the U.K. as it has in America (despite the best attempts of people on both sides of the Atlantic). But it really comes down to this: Americans have perfected the science (or is it an art?) of making tape that actually sticks to things. Seriously. It’s ridiculous.
  2. I don’t know why anyone would ever pay for boxes around these parts. We’ve obtained tons of them for free from the local liquor and fruit & veg stores. Of course, they’re all pretty small. But hey, free boxes!
  3. Does anyone else thing it’s really funny that Sainsbury has condoms in the beer section?

    1. I never would have guessed America to be superior in tape. Another reason I can proudly wear my American flag cape today.

    Regarding the 70’s furniture, the 70’s style is very IN in the US just now. Wild colors and retro everything, so you will be cool beyond words! Does a single alongside a double equal a short king? Think about that one! Also, what exactly were you shopping for in the spirits aisle? Yes, I think it is very funny, although maybe not unrealistic.

    Tor, hasn’t that couch lived it’s nine lives yet?!

    I always have to walk through the spirits to get to the “breakfast” section in the far corner. over there. I supposed I could go by the front way, but I always get bread and then go through the beer etc. to get some granola. Yumm. Or Crunchy Nut for Ben. Also yumm.
