Observations

Do you know what's great? Going to supermarkets and looking at what other people buy. I did this yesterday, and saw:

• An old man reading the paper (without buying it), with a basket containing 10 cans of dog food, an apple, and a bottle of milk. That was it. My dad suggested that perhaps he was too poor to afford food and planned on eating the dogfood himself. Apparently people do that. But it sounded like bullshit to me, he's probably just a lonely old man with a load of dogs. Who eats dogfood.
• An old man in what was clearly his "sunday suit" (it was made of this vomitous yellow-brown plaid), with his much larger, angrier looking wife, buying a horrible-looking cream cake and some teabags.
• A 30-something couple buying (and I counted) 6 loaves of bread, 3 bags of breadrolls, 3 bags of icecubes and a stick of butter. I have no idea what the fuck they were up to, the freaks. 

I also saw something amazing when I was in John Lennon Liverpool Airport (nb. I MUST have an airport named after me, even if I must build it myself). I saw a man and a woman who were transporting (I counted):

• 13 massive african drums. And nothing else.

Then, when I arrived in Cork Airport, I saw, in immediate succession:

• 6 monks in full monk-suit
• 2 hasdic (orthodox jewish)  men and their families
