True facts about nature #1 : The mountain goat.

It's a little know fact that mountain goats utilise sink plungers to aid them in their accent of steep slopes, where as the mountain lion prefers a system of electro-magnets.

...nose to tail

So I've got to go up to London at the weekend, which means driving in the most god awful traffic.
Hate it.

...food safety

Yes its a necessity , but I kind of get bored with the level of health & safety awarness being thrust at me every day .

I think I might produce a line of warning lables that just read, "Danger beware or everything"
just so I can cut through all the arse covering rubbish & safety training regimes & get on with my work.





There that's just about everything covered.
Now you've been warned and informed do you feel safer ?

...honey pot

...and you think ants are irritating.

...cutting edge music

...steppe back in time

This is a case of me sitting down & doodling & never quite knowing where it's going .
Really not quite sure about the results of this method.
They usually end up just being odd.

Well more odd then my usual odd.

...heaps of sheeps

So the next windy day look up & just check.
The fluffy white things whizzing past might not be just clouds.

...red warning light

For the sake of politeness; I'm not going to follow up with the "shepherds delight"

...wooly excuses

...lemon preservation

Preservation of fruits within a fluid.

Pickling

I would like to point out simular techniques can be applied to other friut; limes for example or non citric varieties such as glassed cherries.
With the implication of some other equipment such as small paper umberellas , pointed wooden sticks & even the introduction of a naked flame. These can enhance the fruit preservation process.

The important thing to remember with any of these methods is the basic evapouration principle.
All preservatives should be syphoned off & replaced on a regular basis so as not to damage the fruits due to the results of evapouration.
I.E. evaprotive cooling or imbalance in the concentration of the fluid solution due to vapourisation of one or the other component parts.

...greener grass

mmmm, suckered every year , must be pay review time again .
