Tokyo Flash sells watches, yes that’s right, watches- something that, in it’s fundamental design, is supposed to let you know the time of day at the glance of an eye rather than you having to lug around your sundial….What’s the problem?….none, I suppose, if in the time it takes you to read the time, the time has actually changed!

Perhaps I’ve just completely and utterly missed the point and it isn’t really about being aware of your time keeping, it’s all about having a snappy little number on your wrist…I wonder if it would be quicker to get my camera/mp3/radio player/calculator/GPRS/internet ready mobile out my pocket and call the Speaking Clock….

"...At the third stroke, the time from BT will be...."

The Series starring America Ferrera as a person who is considered ‘ugly’  working for a fashion magazine but having no fashion sense, will not be returning to our screens after the climax of the forth series which will be aired later this year.

So to all of those Betty fans out there… I feel your pain

Seemingly there’s some degree of creativity when it comes to discarding a banana skin (be it purposely or accidental…)
….So much so that S. Astrid Bin has created a gallery website, London Bananas, that is completely dedicated to documenting where those pesky skins find themselves in our capital metropolis….

Slippy little sucker....

I know Manchester & London are 2 very different cities but I wonder if our fair city has the same volume of rogue fruit remains….? …I’ll keep an eye out.

Now I don’t know about you, but I wouldn’t particularly like to taste with my feet. All I would be tasting during the day would be socks, and I don’t presume that they would be particularly appetizing :S

Did you know though, that a koala bears fingerprints are virtually indistinguishable from a humans. In some cases, the resembalence between the species fingerprints have even been confused at crime scenes!!

Courtesy of the lovely people at Veer you can test your kerning skills and stamina by clicking on the picture…(it’s not as easy as it looks, you know!)

But did you know that amazingly we will forget 90% of our dreams once we have been awake for ten minutes?

People who have been born blind cannot see images when they dream, instead they feel emotions and their other senses, whereas people who have become blind after birth can still see images whilst they sleep.

It is also common belief that people have experienced at least one precognitive dream or have experienced déjà vu. The percentage of persons that believe precognitive dreaming is possible, ranges from a massive 63% to 98%.

If you want to remember more of your dreams, it is recommended that you get a dream diary. This is a notebook that you can keep close by, and write in it as soon as you wake up when the dreams are fresh in your head.

That is why I have decided to sign up for a night walk which is taking place in Manchester on the 17th April this year, raising money to help Cancer Research UK. The 13 mile walk, which I have signed up for, starts from the City center and will take myself up to Withington and back, whilst others who have signed up for the 26 mile walk will be taken around from Withington to the Trafford Center before heading to the finish line.

If you would like to take part and help Cancer Research UK (or perhaps walk for another charity) you can sign up by clicking here. Alternatively if you would like to sponsor me to reach my goal of £200, then please click here to be directed to my sponsorship page.

Thanks

Shocking isn’t it?

‘Are you married’ isn’t usually a question one thinks to ask when meeting someone on a first date, so good luck to all those singleton’s out there who are actually looking for love online this year!
