I was once asked why i read so much. I think this quote sums it up.
"The best moments in reading are when you come across something - a thought, a feeling, a way of looking at things - which you had thought special and particular to you. And now, here it is, set down by someone else, a person you have never met, someone even who is long dead. And it is as if a hand has come out, and taken yours" - Alan Bennett (The History Boys)

Chilli Challenge
Nov. 2nd, 2011 05:16 pmA fairly warm and sunny day up till the afternoon as I wondered around Sittingbourne looking for some very hot ghost chillies (Bhut Jolokia). There is going to be a cook off between my cousin and the neighbour next week to see who can produce the hottest chilli dish. It also has to taste good but it has to be very spicy. Phil at the Dover Castle will be doing a blind tasting. Bring it on!!
Palindromic day
Nov. 2nd, 2011 07:03 pmToday is very unusual, and as such is a very rare event – it is a palindromic day – in numerical terms it is 1102 2011 (that is month /day/ year in the American format).
Apart from this odd bit of information , it has been a rather humdrum day. I noticed that in the local rag , the extremely boring East Kent Gazette, there is a bid to have a new cinema complex with the council in talks with an undisclosed company. The last one closed down in 2009 due to lack of customers. I reckon this one will not see the light of day, but if there was , say an Odeon or Cineworld , it would be a much viable option to go out to to see a film, and would be closer to visit.
If only the damn fucking buses in this area would be as efficient and good as the ones in the Brighton area. To have no evening bus is scandalous in my opinion. Even Medway gets evening buses. It needs Go Ahead ,who run Brighton and Hove buses, to challenge the status quo of Arriva, and set up some bus routes in this area. Pie in the sky, perhaps!
