Bird blog by birdienumnum
July 10th 2008Watch the birdie they always say – where does that come from, what does it mean – all that happened was this huge flash of magnesium that left the subject blind for several minutes seeing multiple flashes with their eyes closed… things have changed a lot with red eye flash fill-in… like the photos you take of your pets – why do their eyes always look green or red? A round of Jagermeisters for the table please – oh you don't like Jagies? Ok Tequila for her then – oh with orange and sugar.
This is what Luke said i should do – pretend you're in a bar, you've had a couple of rounds and your tongue is loose.
Blahblahblah… Having never written a blog and not wanting to sound up my own a.. this is the best i could come up with at short notice, the site going live today… This is all very exciting. It all started with a meeting, a retrenchment, tears, then a new vision, freedom and blogdom, finding all my friends on FB, meetings at Deer Park Cafe with potential partners and it all started rolling and before we knew it BOW was born. We fancy a biking safari – not ones with engines – you know in the saddle under pedalpower, imagine just under your own steam, the challenge, the physical warfare with oneself… how many days? Five – nah. I'll watch the Tour de France instead.
It's mid Winter in Cape Town, the River Club flooded again this year, the shacks have washed away, the Olifants River is tearing its way through the flooded landscape and headlines read "Anger Grows over Flooding".. well who do you want to be angry with? God? Nature? How about thinking ahead and building homes on stilts – like in Vietnam, Thailand – when the monsoons and floods hit, you're well above ground. Homes on Stilts – a new South African concept in township living.
