Israeli Otters

as promised....

A: That is Ray Liotta

S: What Israeli otter?

A: eh? That (pointing at advert on TV) is Ray Liotta

S: what? What Israeli otter?

A: (frowning) surely you mean who?

S: no I mean what, or perhaps where. why would I mean who?

A: that makes no sense.

S: no, you make no sense. what is an israeli otter?

A: aha! Not israeli otter, Ray Liotta. He's an actor. Y'know, he's in Goodfellas.

S: Who is Ray Liotta?

and so on. A bit daft maybe but at least we can now blame any future misunderstandings on those pesky israeli-otters.

I wonder if they have otters in Israel.

Work drivel

a whole hour of my life has just been spent listening to utter, utter drivel. Spouted by the head boy of the company. He failed to answer any questions directly and just wittered on inanely.

But he didn't fool anyone....there's no bonus this year.

Again.

On the plus side, there was a lovely little Israeli-Otter this weekend...
"I like that sofa, what style is it"
"I think it's Georgian"
"oh, George and Barabara like it too"
"?"


I'll explain about Israeli-Otters in more detail soon.
