What bemused you today?

[donoreo]

My daughter's VW Tiguan (don't know if that's what it's called there) had a sensor that let her know she had low air in her tires. Took us days to figure that one out because it never occurred to us there was such a thing.

And do not forget the spare!  It may have one as well, my Highlander does.  My sensor light has been on all winter, I do not put sensors on the winter tires.

Hammer? Didn't they make horror films. 

Laughable ones at that, but nothing as funny as this!

Somehow ended up being one of 8 "artists " chosen to put on an exhibition in a church to be re-developed as yet another Leeds arts centre through their link up with a multi million pound shopping centre next door. Went to the 2nd planning meeting tonight and tried not to laugh too much. Me and a bunch of early 20 somethings. They all talk grandiose plans linking their estranged half sisters with the shopping experience/ talk about showing consumerism as the new religion etc. I say I am not an artist I like to think I am a photographer and am just taking some street shots showing small people struggling to make a living  in a big city. No sponsorship form this big development so we are expected to produce the artwork/ displays ourselves. I find it so hard not to take the leak out of pretentiousness. I have to do a written statement about me the artist - my wife made me delete the first 2 on the grounds of too much sarcasm. I look forward to trying to understand others great works whilst they admire my snaps - or not!

 Jinky. It is your duty, as the elder statesman of the group, to stand up and tell them they are all talking &ollo£&$!

Don't worry Jinky, I'm sure the others will be able to explain to you your inner feelings and 'creative motivations' that inspired your work.

Nice to be invited though, congratulations.

She bought it from a Chevy dealer and the sales guy was quite up front in telling us he knew absolutely nothing about VW's so he didn't spend any time showing us the features. I didn't know you could put the sensors 'on' anything. Don't have a clue how it works. I guess I should do some reading.

Listening to Look North whilst away in the Dales for a few days. Robbie Savage bet a Newcastle taxi driver £10 k that Newcastle would not finish in the top 4 this season. To paraphrase an ex - boss of ours I`d love it if we did and he had to pay up. Having said we would not be promoted after beating Derby (who he was hacking for then) he followed that up with us likely to be relegated last season and struggle this. We were, we were not and we have not. If it costs you £10 maybe you should realise you`d be better off as a dancer than a pundit eh Robbie!

[Alfonso_Frisk]

Give the lad his due, he did say in yesterdays interview that he will pay up and buy  the guy his cab if they do indeed finish in the top 4.
He wont need to of course. 

[jinky]

Not much choice had he saying as how he was recorded on radio discussing it and the cabbie has a signed sheet promising to pay the bet. Still makes him a crap pundit though who has always had a grudge against Newcastle. I just hope we cost him dear even if the odds are against us with the run ins we have.

[irv_b]

Jinky I hope your team does make him pay! I can't stand the bloke as far as I can see he is a know nothing, big gob who got lucky. He wasn't even a good footballer, just a guy on the field who went out to clump other players or wind them up because he wasn't as good and that was the only way he could compete with them!
