We are getting very interested in fizz-sicks at the moment (not that my sick is ever fizzy, of course) what with the grey cloud heading this way, TOWFM revising in the hammock and the realisation that i am living proof of the first law of thermodynamics (see, i'm not as thick as i look) - the change in the amount of energy i have is directly proportionate to how much food (or mud off the patio, or grass or hedgehogpoo) i can manage to eat (not enough!) less the amount of work i do (big fat zero there then tara, blogbriancox#1). And there's no truth in the rumour that i'm suffering from entropy - my legs are working just fine.
Anyway, less of that ....i've been moving very fast around the garden in circles this week trying to prove my theory that there is a Tara14 element by smashing into things and hoping it appears - i know there must be one as there's a Tara13 with a half life of 160 and i've observed plenty of dark matter on the grass (most of which you deposited there - blogshitshoveller #1).
I have of course had to be very careful of the ashcloud as i don't want to get it solidifying in my airintakes and and turning me into a supernova.
No sign of the titbits drying up at the holiday home yet - though they do seem to have got a bit healthier - and at least TOWTRV doesn't make my go to aerobics with her.........
