Helpfull advice

These helpful notices appeared in the toilet cubicles at my work place this morning. Do they really think they have remind people? Can you imagine that some people weren't already? Ew! Yuck!

New Shoes?

Saw this lovely story in the local press, went to source on the Reuters news site, for better pics.

A penguin called Elvis wears a new pair of blue shoes at the Antarctic Centre's Penguin Encounter display in Christchurch, November 7, 2006. Elvis and 16 other penguins who arrived at the International Antarctic Centre in September have been given specially designed shoes after several penguins developed sore feet in their new home, according to Antarctic Centre director Richard Benton.

Winter Arrives

So, I went out to lunch today and felt the change in weather we've had over the part two weeks. The mornings are now crisp and cold, the trees are all bare but thankfully it's still sunny. Roll on the snow!
