Teletubbies' Hidden Gems & Semi-Clever Toilets

So it's the end of my sports massage course! All I've got to do now is write up 5 case studies, undergo an hour practical exam and a multiple choice theory exam. Doesn't sound too bad really. I can't quite decide whether to spice up my case studies a little with interesting cases such as 'epicondylitis due to excessive Guitar Hero playing' or 'carpal tunnel syndrome due to excessive wanking'. I like to think the examiners would see the funny side...

Alongside with learning various massage techniques and what's up with a load of injuries, I've also learnt a bit of trivia from some bizarre casual conversation. Got any idea where Blackpool is? Turns out (from my very small sample) that the majority of people mistake it for being North East, when it's in fact North West (win for me!). But that's pretty dull... do you remember the lion in Teletubbies? I didn't either but I looked it up and, oh yes, there's a lion. Not a 3D one though, a cardboard cut out on wheels. It's somewhat (humorously) ridiculous...


I went to see Avril Lavigne last night at Hammersmith Apollo and there was one of those self cleaning toilets... pretty cool although not good for a quick turnover. One day I will stay in there for the cleaning cycle as it doesn't seem that bad! It has one large squeegee that scrapes over the floor twice and a metal thing that sweeps over the toilet seat. I'd kind of prefer to it to have toilet roll though, or at least for it to fill with water in a washing machine style. Anyways, Avril's American girl pop punk style was actually rather good. She performed well and didn't talk constantly although her encore was just a tad staged. No one can deny that Avril Lavigne isn't catchy and her songs make for a good reliving of 90s and early 00s dancing! The large amounts of alcohol may have had an effect, especially as it was Frosty Jack's - something that I have not consumed in a long, long time, but it all made for a good night out.

The other half of the large, plastic bottle made for a messy night out.
