It's sunny and I've been to a place

where I can sit outside surrounded by students and unemployed people. To my left are some tattooed lads trying to do the quick crossword but they can't spell 'Memphis' or 'leotard' and they think the five-letter word for a leg joint must be 'thigh' so they're not making much headway.

On the other side are some female students discussing housemates, most of the girls agree that having to share with boys is the worst but then one girl describes her housemate.

... I'd had a romantic evening with Rob because he was heading off to Cambodia the next day but in the night I started projectile vomiting - fair play he'd had it a couple of days previously and gave it to me so he had to look after me but it carried on the next day and I was lying in bed listening to my irritating housemate parading her family around the house showing them all the rooms and she just opened my bedroom door without knocking with all her family there saying this is Julie's room then she saw me and said oh - are you still ill? then she stepped in a bowl full of my orange sick tipping it all over the carpet.

  1. I would be no help to the crossword boys. I rely heavily on computer spell check...

    1. Maybe Sudoku is more the thing to be doing? I'm terrible at number games

  2. There is something inherently funny about the words projectile vomiting even if you are the one doing it of course it's not funny during but right after if you tell someone I projectile vomited well it's just funny. For instance I just told my son projectile vomiting is funny the words I mean not necessarily the action and he laughed and I had proved my point. Thank you.

    1. Leakages of any sort are frightening - we have to make them funny or we'd run away screaming
