Busy Doing Nothing
I was subject to, I think, a little karmic payback this morning. I really didn’t want to go to visit our client today, but I got up at 6 anyway. As I was drinking my coffee and listening to the Candyman before the start of my mammoth journey the travel news came on. The headline …
Comedy Attire
I was going to let you know about the joys of my weekend. The highs and lows, the triumphs and setback, but then Simon put up a link to meatandcheese.co.uk: any thoughts of that ilk got replaced by me rolling around laughing.

Here in London the heat wave is well and truly a thing of the past. Bobo has been sneaking the central heating …
Absence makes the heart grow fonder
Right, we’re off gallivanting around the country for the next few days so the lights are going to go a little dimmer here at Whats Doing. To keep you amused I would like to leave you with this photograph which I have called "Man Boobs Do Not Contain Food";
Public Service Announcement
Folks, if you know your SoBig.F from your MsBlast stop reading now. Go and say hello to Scaryduck. Alternatively, if you don’t use Windows on your computer then this probably isn’t much cop either. Everyone else, listen carefully. After spending an hour or so on the phone to the 70’s throwback last week, and discovering …
