Mum and dad received loads of paperwork
about the house move this morning. I have had a look at it but it all appears
to be in legal talk, Even the dog says
legal talk is strange and the odd word moved about a bit can mean you end up
buying The Empire State Building instead of a bungalow in the country with
loads a apple trees and other stuff. The plan is to be more self sufficient and
grow chip butties.
Anyway everyone has had a
look at the paper work and gone AH ….. ?????????????? … mmmmmm its ?????? Well
everyone except Captain Flint the Parrot who thinks the plans are a treasure
map and all the words are in code. Well he is half right as the words are in
code. Captain Flint is also convinced we are now buying The Empire State
Building, but I have to clean the upstairs windows so that’s not good and I
have been told they don’t grow Potatoes in The Empire State Building and that’s
not good either.
Sorry I got distracted
again. Today in School we discussed the thermal dynamic properties of different
materials and we all had to take a material to school to do testing and stuff.
Dad very kindly gave me one of his Steam Powered Armadillos, he said he though
it very unlikely anyone else would take an Armadillo and he was right. The
teacher was a little surprised as he said it was not entirely what he had in
mind and the Steam powered Armadillo did fight with the Dynamic Mechanical Spectroscopy and drank
the teacher’s cup of tea. Then the teacher said Esmeralda you need to consider the Phenomenological Aspect of your
material and undertake a creep test and measure the time dependent strain ….. (t) = δ(t)/L. Well she got the
wrong end of the stick altogether so now the school will need yet another
temporary physics teacher. I really must try and get my poker back from her
(the one I made in metalwork).
I am sure that some of you
will realize things are in a state (not the Empire State) of limbo a present (and
not the dance); and that the possible impending move is making things slow up
due to uncertainty of timescales. Which have been made even worse by the fact
that we now have particles that move faster than light? That one fact alone
means you may as well throw your watches away and use a sun dial. (Or will it
mean a sun dial will now run fast bother). And moving in England and Wales using a sun dial is fraught
with logistical problems and men scratching their heads and pointing at
sofas.
Still, we are still
scratching our own heads at present at paperwork and going AH …..
?????????????? … mmmmmm its ?????? and putting things in boxes. Which as we all
know are of intense interest to cats?
Rob Z, most of the time you have me scratching my head in confusion but I do so love your tales.
ReplyDeleteWhen the book finally comes out, I will definitely be purchasing a copy...as long as it's under a fiver. Well we are in a recession.
