"I just wanna smoke it"
Peterborough *yawns*
Passport - Sorted
Flights - Booked
Anyway just a quick peep from me as Nice & I are sharing our last night together for a while.
I took her out to dinner earlier.
No, really!
So, we're just chilling & "Smokin'" by Super Furry Animals comes on the old I-tunes.
It always makes me smirk.
The chorus consists of today's titular lyric repeated like a mantra.
At the time of it's release ('98) I somehow managed to convince Temper Tantrum that it was a bone fide protest song in support of cornish fishermen who, due to new health & safety laws, were no longer allowed to smoke thier kippers.
Always tickles me, that does.

I had a sudden image of cornish fisherman, settling back and lighting up their kippers!
I'm glad you took Nice out for dinner.

That is such a great song, and I haven't heard it for ages. Must put it on when I get home this evening.

Bon Voyage et bonne chance, mon ami! I am so jealous! What kind of work do you do? I am mostly jealous of your friend who was in the Czech Republic. That sound so wonderful to me! Don't let your x get to you, The boy will always be happy to see you and she will never be able to take that away. Spin asked for French adventures, but since I grew up in Quebec, it did not feel like an adventure, merely like life. One adventure was getting my neighbor's MG out of the snow, by getting a bunch of us and simply lifting the small car out of the blanket of snow, and into the street! Cut down on shoveling snow.
Amuse toi bien en France.
