Hi BB, I've got the 1st one there on my ironing board. After some heavy usage the towel has worn away totally! !

Em, I don't think mine is a Brabantia actually but the cover is obviously a repro.

That giraffe design looks like those fake "crocodile" watch straps. The only possibilities I see in it are not buying it or not buying it.

Well, that's it.

I'm going to cut you and that funny doggie dead next time we meet. I'm fussy about whom I am seen to mix with, ye ken!

I'm in the huff now, just you watch it if I meet you tomorrow morning

Oh dear I think you will have upset Mr. Arachnid with that one

I'm sorry, BM. That's just a cross I'll have to bear.

The more I think about it though, I have no problem with the birds themselves in their habitat. It's the whole tea-cosy/poo tray/cuttlefish/mirror/weird stick thing of seeds that gets me.

Maybe I have a suppressed memory of our budgie (when I was a kid) pecking my finger. Or maybe I felt short-changed and wanted a cat. Gilo?

Mr. Arachnid's 100 or so budgies are all outside in their aviary!!!

So no mess for me to clean up and no need for " poo tray" etc.!!!

Which I'm quite pleased about!!!

When Goldbergs was derelict, we were on the roof in amongst that funny aviary-cafe bit, and could hear REM playing at Murrayfield.

I used to love that bit on top of Goldbergs.
as for REM Cool $\:D/$

PoP and I were at Murrayfield that day. It was rainy if I recall correctly.

But isn't it typical; you and I are at a top rock concert whilst dadaiist is playing in the roof top garden on top of a derelict department store.

Dadaist · Post by **Dadaist** » 25 Oct 2006, 14:33

Yeah well that's just the half of it. I'll tell you the rest some time.
