Fab Fota Photos
Catherine took the darlings to Fota Wildlife Park two weeks ago. They loved every minute. Highly recommended for a day out.
You’d think this was the Serengeti:

Yoplait has a customer for life
We got a call from Customer support in Yoplait last Friday week asking if we were in to take a delivery and to apologise for the mis-labelled yoghurt. Shortly afterwards a courier arrived with two boxes full of these:
and these
Osc was blown away, he could not believe that he got all this stuff for, as he put it, “some words on a bit of paper”. He wanted to keep everything in his room so his siblings would get none of it but we pointed out that he needed a fridge for that.

My Poxy Children
Is is possible to get psychosomatic Chicken Pox? I think I may have it, I’ve been scratching for days.
Shibs got the pox two weeks ago and right on schedule the three boys got it yesterday. The baby is crucified with spots on his eyelids, lips and all over his head. Ois has a bad patch on his foot but is ok, Osc was flattened. I hope my mother was right about me having it as a kid.

I think this is the first time in 16 years of using the internet that I have been presented with a list like this:

I saw “The Matador” on a plane recently and raved about it. Catherine got it out on DVD last night and it still works on a second viewing. It is the story of a hitman with problems played by Pierce Brosnan, who befriends an average joe played by Greg Kinnear.

GG's Turkish Barber in Clonakilty
We missed another Farmer’s Market as myself and Osc spent longer in Clon that we expected. The place was mobbed, jammed with cars on the way to/from holidays and flooded just to make everyone’s lives harder. However, none of this interfered with our mission to get our hair cut.
Catherine had noticed a new Turkish Barber had opened up on the ring road in Clon and thought I should check it out.

Yoplait makes Oscar mad again
Osc opened a Melon and Orange yoghurt yesterday to discover it actually contained Fruit of the Forest. So did two others that he checked. In one of his favourite books “Stink and the Incredible Supergalactic Jawbreaker”, the hero (Stink) writes a letter of complaint about a jawbreaker that did not break his jaw. The result is that he gets sent a huge box full of sweets. I think maybe Oscar is hoping something similar happens here.

NZ Gangsta Rap
I just spotted this over at the Signal vs Noise blog. Brilliant Kiwi comedy duo called The Conchords. Hiphopopotamus vs. Rhymenoceros is definitely the best of them.
