I knew I'd forget something. I didn't expect it to be Jeremy Clarkson & the knob of butter.

We walked past a shop selling jacket potatoes with "fillings you've never dreamed of". Naturally, I had to point out the extent of things I *have* dreamed of (though not, admittedly, as baked potato fillings). Hence [livejournal.com profile] faerierhona got the mental image of Clarkson spreadeagled across a piping hot potato, with a strategically placed knob of butter. And only then realised what she'd implied :)

Other stuff.

My Employers have been recognised as a Stonewall Diverstiy Champion. This is rather good.

The Bridgewater Hall, which I visited yesterday to collect details of its lunchtime concerts, has a capacity of 2,397. This struck me as very odd; why not make the usable space that little bit larger, for a nice round 2,400? The concerts do sound good - everything from jazz to piano / violin duets, a baroque set, and all free and over lunchtime.

[livejournal.com profile] brute_force? Get your coat, you've pulled. Pootle has barely moved from where you slept, and keeps rolling around & behaving like a little catnipped-up hussy. This is most out of character for her.

We have a new machine at college which has massive light up knobs on. It's also rather loud. For some reason it reminds me of Clarkson.

Massive light up knobs of butter would be fun, if a bit melty.

Do you remember that film from '89, called Skin Deep?
(which had a completely different poster in Germany)

She thought me odd for wondering whether it was a particularly large potato, or particularly small Clarkson!

That's not odd! That's a perfectly reasonable question! And given that the world record potato was only 18 pounds, I'd lean towards the latter...

I guess it was the knitted one. ;o)
