Today Rose and I had a very serious and responsible adult meeting about... shampoo? Something to do with our line of shampoo. I don't remember the details. I may have been doodling while I was pretending to take notes.

I do remember Rose's not-so-secret admirer sitting in some dodo poo.

Eggbert, this is why we keep you around! :D

Rose, just a suggestion (and it's really nothing to worry about), but you might want to... hold your nose for a bit. Or go and stand on the roof.

You know, I like living in London - there's always stuff to see and do. But there's far too much light pollution. Makes me miss the dark ages sometimes, and it takes a lot to miss places without proper flushing toilets.

Rose went away this morning for a hen... party holiday thing. Something about a spa and drinks and dancing? She's due back tomorrow. Or rather, later on today since it's now gone midnight ( Read more... )
