The 141 bus has finally been elevated to the dizzy heights of appearing on the electronic countdown timer. However its version of 'minutes' are not those I know and love. This morning's 'four minutes' stretched for what seemed like hours. Perhaps I was on Narnian time. In fact, yes, I could have easily defeated the White Queen and taken my throne at Cair Paravel in that time....
Forget Harry Potter. Read Narnia. Or read Robert Heinlein's marvellous "Have Space Suit Will Travel" which I am re-reading at the moment. The first time I read it I didn't even realise it was aimed at children.
Word of the day: annexe.
As in "Why are you walking round with a fork?"
"I have annexed it from the kitchen."
