The Giraffe and the Pelly and Me

Possibly the best story ever! The ladder-less window cleaners.

Ted Baker Eye Infection

Not the best photograph, but the opticians in Kirby Lonsdale was shut and I couldn't walk past without capturing this advert. Initially I thought it was something for the NHS promoting the importance of having your eyes tested to avoid conjunctivitis or losing your eye. Yet on closer inspection it's purpose is to advertise cool, trendy, british Ted Baker eyewear. Not sure it answers the brief which is a shame as the tag line 'glasses on the blink?' is quite witty. Not sure the gamy eye is the best way of illustrating it.

This is one of my Dad's favourite gifts to give newly weds! I'm sure Will & Kate would have just loved them... I came across the 'little nipper' mousetraps today in 'Pellymounters' of Ulverston, a traditional ironmongers, which sold all things miscellaneous. It was ridiculously busy inside many just walking straight to the counter requesting, traps, weedkiller and egg cups to name a few. The lady behind the counter knew where everything was and efficiently sold the strangest of things to the local people!
