the groaning sound you can hear is the disappointment of a dozen ‘one-handed surfers’, taken in by today’s incredibly witty and original title.
since, as i mentioned previously, i’m at the thumb-twiddling stage now, until i tax herman at the end of the month, i thought i’d take advantage of blue skies and sunshine to throw the oul’ vaccuum cleaner round the inside of herman’s cab, fill his windscreen wiper bottle and generally just tidy him up a bit in the front.
what was more remarkable today tho’ was that the sunshine actually managed to surgically remove mazza from the intarwebs for about an hour or so, to give me a hand. since this is such a rare occurrence i have pushed my flash animation skills to their very limits to bring you this ‘reconstruction’ of the amazing sight of mazza steam-cleaning herman’s seats.
behold and marvel!
full steam ahead!
today was also notable for another major breakthrough; mazza’s cat ‘sworth’ is obviously extremely curious as to WTF herman is and why her ‘dad’ spends so much time crawling around underneath him, covered in oil, swearing and hitting things with a hammer. up to now, the closest she’s got to venturing inside tho’ has been to stick a tentative front paw on the step and then run away when i looked round. today, however - fortified by the site of her ‘mum’ inside the van - she actually dared to come aboard for a nosey round. the moment was captured in this stunning wildlife photography sequence.
venturing in for the first time

checking out the cab

hey! - it’s just like the flat. there are window sills to sit on
