Was looking at the Amazon website for Christmas inspiration. I love that they are offering a delivery service called Amazon Prime. Sounds like a huge scary Transformer mega-villain.
Look out! Amazon Prime is on his way, demolishing everything in his path!
Heh.
My eye was drawn to the claim made about one of the in-car satnav guidance systems.
The headline said "Drive Like a Local". As if that would be a good thing.
This morning, driving like a local would have entailed being in a huge, mud-encrusted tractor, doing 14 miles an hour, your big dog sitting beside you in the cab glaring at the people in the cars following you, that you were splattering with enormous wet globs of mud as you trundled along in the middle of the road.
You bastard.

Brilliant Idea
Current mood: creative
Was chatting to one of my lovely on-line mates yesterday and he was talking about going out to read the grafitti (for fun, of an evening, you know). These posh city types.
I remarked that there is very little grafitti to be seen round here. Unless you count the writing on bacon, of course. We agreed that the locals were missing out on a wonderful life experience, not having access to a varied selection of high-quality grafitti.
And then it came to me.
Mobile grafitti walls.....
Like a mobile library, a huge, highly grafittied wall on the back of a big old flatbed truck, touring the villages and hamlets of the area, giving the poor deprived locals a chance to see what the hip urban kids are up to. And it would change every few weeks to allow the provinces to keep abreast of fashion trends.
That's a vote winner for sure. If the local council adopt my idea I shall probably get some sort of civic award.
