Adventure Number One - check!

This morning saw the commencement and completion of self-posed Adventure Number One - to explore the fields around the Business School. Now in retrospect, I probably should have chosen a slightly less windy day, because the declaration to go out exploring resulted in genuine concern from work-fellows about my sanity. However, deciding it would blow some of the detritus out of my poor brain, off I went. For your delight and delectation, here is a nice picture of the view that I found:


It looks like a generic picture I may have stolen but the bad quality proves it was from my phone camera! And here is a nice picture of the shed that I work in. Yes, that's right, everyone calls those The Sheds. Come to Durham Business School! Spend £30,000 on an MBA! Have it administered by some distracted women living in sheds!


Adventure Number One was at best moderately satisfactory. Here's hoping for more excitement from further adventurous instalments...

Tales From Liz And Lil - Episode 1, Walking The Cat

Friday night seems to be the night where Liz and Lil's House of Fun winds down a little and we end up sat vacantly with nothing to do. This brings on ridiculous moods like The Time With The Chocolate Santa and The Time This Girl Wrote Something On Facebook About You But It Was Actually Me. Last Friday, as a novel idea, we went for an Adventure, and took the cat (our female cat, called Reginald) for a walk!
Here is me with the unsuspecting victim…



..and here is Reggie trying to explore in the bushes…I say trying because This One Time Laura Saw A Rat Running Across The Door and I wouldn’t want Reg to come up against a Sunderland rat. It might batter her to death with it’s shiny white trainers. Anyway, proof of the lovely red leader in action…



…and ten minutes later we were bored and came back in. Now I realise it looks like the cat absolutely hates me and is shooting lazers somewhere (not unlike many famous Lol-Catz) but I think she just resented having her picture taken because it was stealing half of her soul, and she can’t work in those conditions!



Tune in tomorrow for more exciting Tales From Liz And Lil!
