"Watch" this & LM gets another Robin

"watch this" If there was a prize for "silliest watch of the week" the new Samsung Gear S might take it.  Its the latest in "new technology" watches by the likes of Samsung and LG.  The story relates how "Apple" is waiting until next month before it launches its "device" . The story does have a bit of "tongue in cheek" in the telling about the  Motorola effort launched earlier in the year dubbed "The Moto 360" it is described as having  a "distinctive trait" - - - by being round! - - -

ooooppps! says Zara's online shop for promoting what the story describes as its "Holocaust uniform" the online catalogue pic looked too much like the concentration camp uniform of WWII.  Complaints from the public lead to "Zara" removing it from sale - - -

A novel way to get people to dig up your beach is to Hide gold in the sand   This is what an artist has done on Folkstone beach in an effort to appreciate the "art" produced by what it is hoped will be hundreds if not thousands of people digging for the gold - - -




Closer to home
Our local Doctors phoned me the other day and left a message for me to have a "telephone appointment" with a doctor?!   At the appointed time I spoke to one of the practice doctors about a repeat prescription.  Last time i had to do this I was given a slot on the normal appointment system, I guess this way it saves them a slot and lots of time.  - - - very forward thinking! - - -

Little Sainsbury is still much of a nocturnal animal and spends most of the daytime in a comfortable spot, like Sally's easy chair in this pic.  Presently he's hunkered down in the bottom of the spare bedroom wardrobe.

One of last nights victims was laid out on the floor this morning poor "cock Robin"

With the onset of this "early Autumn" that i keep banging on about its time to start digging up, clipping and pruning various bits and bobs in the garden.  You can just see on the right of the pic a little coloured screen i put up to give my neighbour a bit more privacy because he seems unwilling to complete his fence at the moment - - -

Enjoy the day
