The Worst Movie Ever

Is, without a doubt, Nutty Professor II. I should know, I’ve seen it twice thanks to the joy of transcontinental air travel.

Do me a favour and go and vote for it at Scaryduck’s poll. Thanks.

P.S. From our overdraft department, the Wife has discovered internet shopping from Boots. Dear lord, at this rate we will be overcome by cotton wool and nappies before you can say "maternity leave".

Naming Names

There is a baby free zone, as previously stated, but I couldn’t resist pointing you towards the grandly titled Baby Name Inventor. Don’t like those? Well how about some boys.

This could explain why everyone in show business (predominantly from across the pond) has such a daft moniker. So, to give junior a heads up in the business that is show, what do you think of Kanntchan Betawnabi Todd? No, probably not a winner.

For the curious, further ankle-biter updates can be found over at the wife’s web site. Because if I were to talk about it here all you would get is me complaining about the price of nappies.

Finally, and just to be fair, I found the site courtesy of the fine, fine folk at NTK.

Quote of the Day

"He often makes a gloriously wristy 17 before slapping a full-toss to cover." – Lawrence Booth talking about Vikram Solanki in the Guardian Unlimited over-by-over report.

Every day and in every way I’m learning to appreciate the Guardian more and more. Bless.

UpdateIn the over after I posted this entry this happened;

VS Solanki b Mohammad Hafeez 36 (36b 6×4 1×6) SR: 100.00

Glad to see that the team are acting true to form. But if it does we can safely assume that Goughie will be bowling like a demon in the next innings.

The Drugs Don’t Work

Its that time of year again. Runny nose, itchy eyes, comedy sneezing fits. So I’ve just popped out to Boots and bought some Clarityn tablets.

I was really hoping I was over this hayfever thing, I mean it is soooo nineteen nineties, but it seems that my aversion to pollen is just as strong as it has always been.

Of course, in Australia (bugger, we just missed the food and wine festival) I suffered not a single sniffle. Does this mean that antipodean pollen is less offensive than the variety we get in the mother country?
