Church advertisement idea #1

We're still awaiting the commission to do those witty ads outside of churches. But it's surely only a matter of time with gems like this:

Today's playlist: 30love

• Octopus - If you want to give me more (really only for the first 10 seconds or so, but I must have played it on Apr 13 for the last 13 years now).
• The Verve - A new decade

and definitely, categorically, nothing to do with the fucking muppets :(

Blues ponder their next move

A word in praise of the mighty game, Carcassone. We were given the starter pack + two expansions as a wedding present, and our initial bafflement rapidly gave way to joy and a creeping obsession, along with a desire to spread the word further. Chances are that if you've spent more than twenty minutes in mine or CP's company over the past twelve months then we'll have tried to tell you how amazing Carcassone is. There's a strong chance that we'll have whipped the board out and played you, or just gone ahead and given a pack to you as a gift.

Our pack recently accompanied us to Egypt where we could fit in a crafty game and dodge the wonky hotel evening entertainment. We've also found ourselves fitting smoothly into conversations in game shops and being referred to as 'gamers'. Still don't understand the Count expansion though.
