You always know in the back of your mind if you’ve left a half cup of tea or a half-eaten biscuit somewhere.

I’d Scream, You’d Scream
Over on Twenty Major’s site on Friday last he posted about the fact that they are playing David Gray’s ‘Babylon’ over and over again at the prisoners in Guantanamo Bay to torture them. This led to a discussion about songs we’d hate to have continuously played at us.
That got me thinking – can you imagine what it must be like to drive an ice-cream van? The same one hurdy-gurdy tune over and over again, all day long?
How do you pick the tune? Does it just come with the van or is there a catalogue? If there is it’s a very small one, as they all seem to have either the Match of the Day theme, the Magic Roundabout theme or O Sole Mio.
You’d dread getting out of bed in the morning. You’d dread turning into each new estate.
I’m on my way to work at the moment, and suddenly feeling a whole lot better about my job.
