Picture Perfect, or something...

Here are a few random snapshots taken at the weekend; some funny, one just random, and one that's decidedly not funny...
"Take the transversed path; the road less travelled." 
Is it just me, or is there something not quite right about this sentence?

 
"I found me Enjoya!"
Well done you! ;)
Sounds a bit Bristolian, innit me luverr.

 Mwah.

Here's the decidedly not funny one:

 I came across a shop selling plus-sized clothing. It's called Huge's. 
Hadi tried to tell me that the designer's name is Huge, but I'm not convinced...

And finally, the cute baby-grow for Daddy's girl! :)

I also did it to overcome my minor addiction to buying Cherry Cokes from the drinks machine outside my place of work. I was very proud of myself for sticking to that resolution for the whole year, minus one minor lapse in July when I sipped some excess Mr Pibb off the top of Jeff's drink at Pizza Shuttle... This year I have decided to make up for lost time by having multiple new year resolutions, which are... 1) Learn Indonesian! It appears to be a simple language to learn the basics of, and my kids love it when I tell them what words I have learned, so I have no excuse not to learn it. 2) Read at least two books each month, one for pleasure, one for work-related research. 3) Practice yoga every day. I could easily just bend over a...
