Sunning it

Brunch with M at Banana Beach earlier today. Can't beat sitting on the beach, not a cloud in the sky, while munching on some breakfast-type bagels. The sea was looking mighty fine, there were even a couple of swimmers about much to the amazement of M. Tried telling him that today was like a typical summers day in the UK, but he didn't believe me.

Off later for some babysitting. Yep, babysitting. Beats losing to Manure, I guess...

Keeping up the fun quota (my mission for December is to make you smile on every visit you make this month), another Essex girl joke for you:

An Essex girl goes to the council to register for child benefit. "How many children?" asks the council worker. "10" replies the Essex girl "10???" says the council worker. "What are their names?" >"Wayne, Wayne, Wayne, Wayne, Wayne, Wayne, Wayne, Wayne, Wayne and Wayne." "Doesn't that get confusing?" "Naah..." says the Essex girl "it's great because if they are out playing in the street I just have to shout WAAYNE, YER DINNER'S READY or WAAYNE GO TO BED NOW and they all do it..." "What if you want to speak to one individually?" says the perturbed council worker. "That's easy," says the girl... "I just use their surnames."
