  2. Flashback Friday: Oh, this isn’t a water fountain?

    April 17, 2009 by Gail

    I don’t know what’s more weird: the look on my face or the fact that I’m trying to nonchalantly pose with a fount of penises. I don’t think it’s possible to pose nonchalantly with a fount of penises, it just looks ridiculous. Best to make a silly face instead…

    Oh, this isn't a water fountain?

    This was my first trip (of four) to Amsterdam, a brief side tour while I was visiting England for Christmas in 1997. Lucy and I flew from Manchester to Amsterdam, Ansgar travelled from Cologne, and Fedor drove in from Lisserdijk. It was the same trip when we got gussied up in Volendam for a portrait wearing traditional Dutch clothes. That photo never fails to crack me up… even 11+ years later!


  3. High Time For A Cleaning

    April 17, 2009 by Gail

    My car has been in an embarrassing state of post-winter grunginess and disarray, which called for a complete top-to-bottom cleaning yesterday: exterior hand-wash, vacuum, pressure washed the floor mats, and we even WAXED it. (All that junk you see in the photo behind the car is mine!) I don’t think I have ever waxed a car before — David would’ve been really impressed!

    Jeff did the bulk of the grunt work, so I took him for a well-deserved fish and chips in Port Credit. After hours of washing and cleaning, that halibut hit the spot!
