Ups and Downs - a slightly self-absorbed posting!

And just when I thought things were boring…

 

Unfortunately the competition is closed but today was the day when you could win a week for two on Gough Island and a Datsun.

 

Solve this riddle:

 

Maw 'phones, panic stricken which means it is computer related.  Here's the scenario.  

She was innocently sitting in front of her PC, typing.  She leant forward to reach for something and her ample chest (it's genetic) inadvertently brushed her keyboard and her monitor went blank.

 

This has to historically be the first case of boobs nuking a PC.

 

After having a good giggle at Maw's expense my day hit a record low!  A friend had e-mailed me a photo taken when I was up north.   It is humanly possible to turn out so hideous on photos?  When I expressed my shock and horror my friend told me people say it's pretty.   I have a couple of MAJOR problems with that statement:

a)       That means "people" have seen that photo.  Who exactly is "people" because I have to go and kill them.

b)       "People" must have really low standards because if that is anyone's idea of being pretty, they are smoking their socks!

Yes, it did occur to me that maybe I am wrong because I am up against the rest of the world here but I am a Virgo, I demand perfection from myself and today I had to face the fact that I fall short of the mark.

 

Warning to all unsuspecting photographers out there:  If anyone ever points a camera at me again I will shred you, I promise.
