Il Pleut

You will no doubt be delighted to learn that it is absolutely sheeting down in Palo Alto today so we've gone to the mattresses "Manchester style" for the duration (kettle on continuous boil, Hatfull of Hollow on the radio, Fray Bentos for tea). We ventured out this morning to get you these visual treats though.


The Glass Slipper Inn, Palo Alto. Nota Bene: "Glass slipper" is the industry term for the impractical looking transparent plastic shoes worn by adult entertainers. Lucky they don't have to walk very far.

No, Kate hasn't stopped laughing yet.

Also what's all this about eh?

  1. Curiously missing from Youtube, Whoops Baghdad. However, there's a fair bit of 'Curry and Chips', created by William G. Stewart (of 15-to-1 fame, and perhaps proprietor of the largest penis in England, after Richard Briers), featuring light-hearted ribaldry on the topic of racial tensions in the 70s.
