May 23rd lunchbox


BREAKFAST: Marvellous bowl of Cornflakes with cold semi-skimmed milk.

The Walk to Work.

Sun was really trying to break through (fair play), but even with clear blue skies there was the odd drop of rain... well that's the UK for you!
Down the Taff Trial into the centre of Cardiff and it was cyclist mania this morning. And at last more on the wildlife front, noted two fierce looking ravens foraging for food on the river bank, as well as quite a few chilled out ducks on the River Taff below. The immaculate groomed white Husky passed me with his owner.


LUNCHBOX...
1 banana
1 plum
4 chicken sandwiches on granary bread
1 toffee flavoured Muller Light Yoghurt
1 slice of coconut cake made by Plugs of Trumpton.

THIS oven could do with a good clean!

Went for the cake first (and why not!), followed by the banana and then the plum. Sandwiches were rapidly demolished just before midday. Yoghurt will go shortly.

RANDOM THOUGHT

2333: Adam and Eve are brought back to life (don't ask me how) by a team of scientists living on the outskirts of the capital of Antarctica, AmundScott.
Eve's first words to Adam are: I was thinking of doing a nice crumble with the remains of that Apple!

>>>>Coming soon a podcast about the Welsh forgetter of the Year.

I know that Amund is Innuit for apple but I don't get the Scott bit. Is that your middle name?

Have you never thought about working for Ntl, or for a VoIP company?

No. But thanks for the advice. I don't walk to work either. It's too far.

Gee, I saw your post on The Vegan Lunchbox and I thought, "This guy is really wild!" I just love Wales and all the way through junior high I thought Tom Jones was as neat as could be. In Vietnam I had a poster of Shirley Bassey on a bamboo pole. It was when I tried eating the pole I decided to become a vegan. Sion, you should tell your story about how you said goodbye to meat and dairy products.

This is not well known, but both Jones and Bassey served in Vietnam.

BREAKFAST: Was in the gym at 6.44am this morning.... first time in a month. Returned to have a swell bowl of Cornflakes with semi-skimmed milk. THE WALK to WORK THE rain and wind tested by umbrella handing skills to the limit this morning. Down the Taff Trail and the home of Glamorgan County Cricket Club, Sophia Gardens, was looking particularly sad this morning. A cyclist waved as she passed me on the trail, turned out to be work colleague Anna Morrell . She later explained how she dreads passing pedestrians on the trail sporting i-Pods... good to get a cyclist perspective for a change! THE lunchbox: 1 plum 1 organic banana. 4 chicken sandwiches on granary bread 1 Toffee flavoured Muller Light Yoghurt 1 slice of Chocolate Crunch made by Plugs of Trumpton PLEASE don't panic it's only a fire drill!

Life after industrialisation

Sense, feel, industrial steel. Tears at the winter graveside. The mourners moving out of sight. A solitary figure in poetic motionless grief. Turn the page and look to the west. A new dream and stream of heart warming consciousness. Rest in peace.
