Olympic study breaks

There is nothing like the 2010 Winter Olympic highlights from Vancouver to provide an exciting break from my books.. speed, snow and skiing!!  Maybe I'll have to plan a trip to the next one as a reward for all this hard work!

Rules for life cont..




Shave your legs before you go to a party, you never know who will ask you home.
A penny saved is……a penny saved.  THINK BIGGER.
The way a man drives tells you a lot about the way he makes love.
A jar lid screwed on by a man can never be removed.  Men consider acts like these tests of strength.
Fat people eat more than thin people.
Everyone hates a surprise party.
Don’t trust anyone who looks you in the eye.  It’s completely unnatural for humans to peer into each other’s eyes.
People with thick hair are more likely to succeed than people with thin hair, - or at least have a jollier time.
How long a minute is depends on which side of the bathroom door you are on.
Collect a few killer rebukes, such as “You’ve got low self esteem, but you’re entitled to it.”

A gorgeous setting, an amazing couple and touching vows.. superb day, finished off with good wine and a jazz band. Heaven!

Feeling a touch pensive..

This picture from Sharon Montrose is rather reminiscent of how I am feeling facing my first MBA exams this weekend.  Feeling a touch pensive, I tell you.  But before I know it, they'll be over and I'll have a glass of wine in hand.. Diemersfontein Pinotage or my favourite Haute Cabriere.. yum.  Right.. now I need to focus!

Pothole Gardens

Artist Pete Dungey plants gardens in the potholes on British roads. "If we planted one of these in every hole," he says, "it would be a like forest in the road."
