Testosterone talk

Boobies football and cursing

Hi-viz and muscles

A silly Haiku today, I was in our work canteen, lots of hi-viz jackets. The thing is, my Haiku does not represent reality in the slightest. The atmosphere was serene, there are ladies who work in the warehouse too. It was just my projection of some 1970s vision of what I think large factories or warehouses must’ve been like.

Farting, swearing and looking at busty ladies in topless calendars whilst drinking tea with three sugars. I watched too many “gritty” sitcoms back in the day seemingly. Although I can’t think of one which specifically had such uncomplicated characters.

I’m a bit of a soft pawed irreverent nobhead really, says more about me!

Sleeping filament

Lampada Annuale

no one saw it glow

Went to the Tate Modern after work, getting the most out of my membership! I sat in the members room for a bit with a scone and some tea and did a bit of work on my laptop, then I had a wander.

The Alighiero Boetti exhibition is great fun and very thought provoking. Like many people, I kind of was drawn to the Lampada Annuale (annual lamp) which only switches itself on randomly for 11 seconds in any one year. So naturally you are drawn to it, hoping to be bestowed the wonderful gift of light.

For an online experience of the same sense of expectancy, check this fun website!

I didn’t dwell for long, but I’m sure some people wait ages. Patience is a virtue. I strolled away with a wry smile.
