I can exclusively reveal that Absinth tastes a lot like Pernon/Ricard/Pastis and is better with the whole sugar/ spoon/ pyromania rigmarole (sp?). Thoroughly recommend it. Delusions, hallucinations, madness and epilepsy failed to manifest themselves in our controlled experiment last night. Mind you, we left a little early…

Click the picture for the gallery. The tour goes from Grand Ave., the Oakland hills, to a bit of Berkeley. Am off to M’n’M’s now to see what kind of shape me missus is in after a day in the wineries. I’m sure she didn’t touch a drop. She just rang from what sounded like a Madonna concert, but could have been the minibus.

“I gave Klem 10 and Lulu 1.
Frankly, Lulu displays an enervating dreariness and a palpable lack of vim that makes one feel ashamed to even bring to mind the aspirations of rabbithood. Klem, however, instills in one a sense of lofty fluffiness and self-effacing coyness that cheers as well as comforts for its close to complete achievement of the lapinnic ideal. well done klem”
Oy, oy. We’re heading up the 5 to Oakland and nipping past where we got married 3 years ago to see if the weather’s improved at all in the intervening years… Asparagus and co are staying with the grandparents though. He refuses to eat breakfast unless he gets a fried egg mixed in these days, which can’t be right, if you ask me. We’ll be staying with Monica & Daniel and I might manage an update or two.
Sita’s on a girly wine tasting tour manana, I’ll be on a blokes’ day in working out the wedding settings on me new gadgets. My PDA spluttered to life a couple of days ago, but it’s on the blink again. I’ve worked out what’s wrong, the security setttings (thanks to google), so I should be scrabbling ™ away in the near future again. Fingers crossed. I’ve missed that particular piece of kit.

My Mum only reckoned Lulu was worth a “4″. We’re talking to each other again now. Just.
Here’s what I’ve made in the last 24hrs in L.A. so that’s what the hammering was all about… The new camera arrived yesterday and i’m v.impressed with it so far. I have 3 more days to practise before Meg’n’Matt’s wedding on Saturday. It’s going to be fun…
