Introduction

This blog was created to pass the time whilst I am on the dole waiting to start work. Being skint and bored makes you appreciate the little things in life. Cheap thrills and simple pleasures. I'm not talking about warm fuzzy feelings from watching a sunset, swimming with dolphins or receiving hand written post. It's the smaller stuff that gives you a kick, that nearly kills you or knocks you out. That isn't crumby, corny or phony. That you think no one else notices or appreciates, but probably everyone does.
Inspired by the following short film, "Foutaises" (things i like, things i hate) by Jean-Pierre Jeunet the director of Amelie:
John Coltrane playing "My favourite things":

the toilet maze in cheap restaurants

I've always had a sickening fear of never finding the loo at restaurants. Departure from the familiar table, heading towards the mysterious, unpredictable toilets rattles me, while my bladder fills. Having seen this rendition I will not feel so alone in my wanderings down those unnatural hallways.
Sarah, don't make me laugh too much when we next have a drink, i may wet myself.
