Welcome to a new segment here on Smaggle! Every day in this crazy, crazy world I notice little things that are weird, wacky and wonderful. I thought I should start to share these with you. Lucky bastards…
- Ginger Spice can’t sing. At all.
- When I swallow my massive multivitamin pill I point my finger in the air and ‘guide’ it down my throat with a strange mid-air gesture. I now choke every time I do this because it’s so funny.
- When people say ‘Thanks a lot!’ really quickly it sometimes sounds like ‘Thanks, ya slut!’
- Shredding paper is very soothing.
- The treadmill at the gym in Mr Smaggle’s building does not gradually slow down at the end of 20 minutes. It stops dead, mid-stride, level 8, incline 12 and launches Lady Smaggle’s pretty little face smack bang into the middle of the screen.
- Boys can get really emotional about computer games.
- Old people put ‘the’ in front of really weird words. Like ‘the email’. Or ‘the facebook’.
Any discoveries to share today my poppet pie?
Love Lady Smaggle

Hey there lady!
I have been wanting to do some sort of online blogger clothing swap and I figure we are about the same size and height, would you be interested. It could be one great thing or a few, I just think it would be fun. We could either do something that we don’t want anymore or find something at a thrift specifically. Let me know if you are into it.
P.s. I love it when old people say funny things like that, they are usually so cute anyway and then the funny language tops it off perfectly.

I still say the alphabet when I twist the stem off an apple.

I still say “signed by administering nurse” in my head every time I sign my name. How mental is that! And I haven’t been a nurse for about a thousand years!

Other road users and pedestrians – who, when they get fed up of waiting to move into traffic or cross the road – often turn their head away from oncoming, heavy, hurty-hurty vehicles trundling towards them and pull out/step out. They are then suddenly shocked by the resulting smashy-smashy, swervy-swervy mayhem … “Oooh – I didn’t see them officer”.
Old people who put ‘the’ in front of really weird words, like ‘the email’ or ‘the facebook’ are often just doing it to mess with your head. MrE and I often comment on popular beat combos in this way ie The U2, with particular pleasure at the teeth-grinding caused by it. Bless.
Really old people often run down your entire genealogy whilst trying to remember your name – “I asked Steven, Katherine, Ray, Ian, Edward mmm – no you’re E; I asked E ….”
Just because someone can get into a garment – it doesn’t mean it fits them.

My dad was lying when he told me that your arm gets longer if you rub your elbow.

Pater Stumpy checks “the email” on “the broadband” and was happy with his new computer has the old one didn’t have enough jigs (as in a dance)
