To find daft things funny' and funny things daft.?

[ScousyFogarty]

Its an idylic day today. I was drifting along in a good mood. (No substances involved..except tea and ice cream)

I came across people penned in tables outside pubs...eating. laughing and supping. I said to one or two that looks good, mate. They said IT IS or words to that effect.

Then a funny thought occured to me: Am I witnessing the Big Society, the Cafe Society....or a little version of the Big Society posing as the Caffe Society....?

It would have been nice if a french man had cycled past with his onions slung over his shoulder. (A nice trick if you can do it)

It would make my year if I saw that. The bloke with the onions, obviously, not the people outside cafes.

I pass the people outside the pubs regularly, Tidey. They are sort of penned in. It amuses me. No offence meant.

Its just a sign that I am in a better mood than is often the case. If I could bottle the feeling I would.

To see a real French onion seller......complete with bicycle, beret and stripey jumper go to Lymington market. He's there most Saturdays.
