The armwarmers adorn one arm each of two friends.
Two attempts to diagnose the macbook pro rattle. Is it a rattley cough (the fan) or a rattle of approaching death (the hard drive)?
Two baubles from the rather attractive Christmas decorations in John Lewis on Oxford Street
And two pictures of one rainbow.
Which do you prefer?

Screw the rainbow – what the hell is that in the foreground? A float from a physics parade?
Computer rattles are certainly disconcerting, aren’t they? My desktop’s fan has just recently begun to sound hoarse; up until now it’s been inaudible.
OOh, I want arm warmers! I have monkey arms, too long for my coats so my wrists are always out in the cold. Those look quite wonderful.
I like the bottom one. Such odd juxtapositions.
I think I like the raindroppy one the better. The hands are lovely, slightly disconcerting as you expect it to be a pair of hands from one person. He has a nail-biting proplem though…
whatever is that strange arrangement of inflated condoms? Surely this is not this year’s Oxford Street Xmas theme??
Second rainbow; first bauble; first computer diagnosis, because you look in it as if you were getting the spark from god, or possibly handing it on to the mac. I worry about Tall Girl’s experience of condoms.
Dave, Tall Girl, the inflated (teatless) condoms are indeed this year’s Regent Street Christmas lights (see here for another picture). I have to say that, for the first time ever, I find myself actually liking them. Although they’re all pink in the linked picture they actually change colours through a spectrum in a very pleasing manner.
Leslee, is that a request? it can so easily be fulfilled if it is 🙂
acb, further proof of the non-existence of god then, in that the noise has not yet ceased. Sigh.
I prefer the second rainbow myself, but I was wondering whether anyone who hadn’t actually seen it would know it was there.
Look you loved the same Regent Street lights!
I like Bauble 2 (makes me think of Pac Man and my youth, though I never played the game). Can’t say about the diagnosis – first is getting the spark, as mentioned, second is bowing in praise and homage to the possible source – inseparable and hilarious. I like both rainbows, but any rainbow will do – I live in the Southeastern US and very thirsty – for rainbows and brollies. I like both armwarmers equally and unequivocally.
second rainbow!
Thanks dw and readersguide. I’m unequivocal about the armwarmers too.
