A lesson in R*E*S*P*E*C*T*

"BIG is BETTER and that is what I call RESPECT"......

I recall a visit from Little Nathan (that how mum refers to him) I on the other hand call him BIG BROTHER Nathan, anyway this fella, with his bad boy looks shows off his little Mater from the feature film "Cars" by Disney-Pixar. As he struts his stuff around my home, I am clearly disturbed by his hand held Mater as it's in my face.

I am secretively intimidated by him...I am forced to hide in my bedroom until the force of power takes over the better of me. I glance at the corner of my room and see a glimpse of hope ....

It's the real deal -  Mater in life form, quickly I hop onto this ride and dash open my bedroom door, needless to day Nathan is at lost for words...

He is surprised and realise that his own Mater is in a small world after all. We exchange Maters, Big Nathan gets the big one and Little Calum gets the small one. 

Lesson learnt by all: "Bigger is Better"  - "RESPECT" it's so cool to be in with the crowd.

It's my fathers Day

On Mummy's Day, she wanted a posh meal in a posh restaurant.  My father on the other hand did not want the fuss.  The moment I woke up, I  was directed by mum to make a meal from scratch. So off to the market i went early this morning.

We made mum's.....ooops I mean dad's favourite "a boeuf explosion avec pomme des terres traditionelle" or as they say en anglais & simply put "beef pie with potatoes"

I even walked into Park N Shop with my head held high and my pennies weighing down my little trouser pockets, i choose a bottle of bubbly for a grand total of HK$12.5 to compliment the meal.

Asked my mum what the meaning of Father's day is, her reply was "it's exactly like Mothers day,  Father's day is an opportunity for Papa to look after Mama ", and Mother's day?....."well ...it's the reverse, it's where Mama is looked after by Papa"!

Learning point, it's fair and square, on both occasions, I have to look after them both....sigh!

Curb your Addiction

Life is good when you have a steady stream of followers, but i can totally emphasise with those A-lister "Mammy" award winners especially when you're in great demand and pressed to feature the next album.

Whilst i was lying in my new lofty uptown apartment, soaking up the morning sun and sipping  "Milkarita", I suddenly came up with more inspiration to write.

To all those Lawlam addicts out there...."Curb your Addition"....there's more in the store for you.....

"Milkarita - hick....ooops"

"ah life is good when your in demand - juuuuust LURRRRRVE the attention"

Swimming Season

Kicked off my swimming season by joining the masses in Dad's private pool at work today. When we got there however, it was everything but private.  Seemed like all parents were out showing off their children.

I did a bit of showing off too - I had the best float "in the house"!

Happy Days

pumped up - ready to go
