IF IN DOUBT …….

………. hide your head in a building.

Ostrich head

If a chap wielding a very dangerous standard lamp should pass by in a very threatening manner, you’ll have no idea.

This is my top tip to get you through the weekend.

    Maybe that feels safe in England, but in Malaysia showing your backside towards a chap with a very dangerous standard lamp could end you up in today’s high court.

    Most likely that’s why we wanted to become independent, TV wasn’t that common 50 years ago…

    Linky has a point there … he is giving off a sort of *ahem* *cough* ‘inviting’ pose … so he may have some idea when he has that light bulb moment …. (just got up brain is still in bed lol!!)

    ‘Light bulb’ moments are very rare and should be cherished ……. [Health and Safety warning - a circuit breaker should always be used]

    I’m glad to see that chap is following the new DP Manifesto (Health & Safety, Rule 47a, paragraph ii.2010 amendment) and taking his appliance to the store to have the bulb changed by a professional.

    The person (how do you know it’s a he?)in the wall is obviously indulging in a spot of cavity inspection, or assuming the position for same……..

    I am having a rethink and thinking that his positional invite is where all manifesto’s should be shoved… ;-)

    …took us years to get the meanin’ of Benny Hill and Tom Baker. Eventually we did. This…still trying to figure out which end of the lamp you’re meaning.

    In NYC it is not unusual to see someone with their head in a wall, or someone wielding a lamp. We also have people putting their head in a wall while wielding a lamp at the same time. However, this is usually done while singing God Bless America backwards.

    I tend to advise folks to stick their heads somewhere else, but since this is your blog I suppose you may advise folks to do whatever you wish. ;-)
