Tigers lost … but the sound wasn’t

So the Tigers lost again. Thought I called in a favour with those guys, but I guess it fell on deaf ears. (Groan!)

But even though I didn’t get to hear 40 odd thousand voices singing ‘Tigerland’ in victory, on Sunday, I did get a better auditory experience than I could have hoped for.

A drive to the library … and a rundown on MAP # 2

Yesterday, with car battery nicely charged again, I decided to drive to my local library and pick up some new audio books to listen to.

The first thing I heard, when I turned the key in the ignition, was the familiar hum of the engine running (only it was more of a bellowing hum than a quiet hum).

The second thing I heard?

Squeeeeeak.

Oh the brakes! Not good! I bet that’s the first time I’ve ever smiled at that noise though!

Don't care for Cher

Cher. In high definition. Prancing about in fishnet stockings on a 3 x 2 metre television screen. Stereo sound.

            Babies crying. Kids shrieking. (Did that have anything to do with Cher? Quite possibly.)

            Phones ringing. Names being called out.

            This is the scene I was met with at the doctor’s waiting room on Monday.
