around the world in a day

howdy doody


just one of them for family and friends around the world, look you see, what features my family as they, to be sure, stand around the world. or sit, i suppose, if they have access to chairs and the desire to do so.

family, friends and, of course, Grant enthusiasts. it is for you, you particularly interesting latter group there, that i have some excitement in the form of a relatively recent image of him, as it were, so to speak, in action.



yes there he is, fellow enthusiasts - Grant as promised very much in action. or, more appropriately, at the pinnacle of the climax of the action, for this looks like it is at the end of some sort of race which he has run. a marathon, i believe.

one can more or less ascertain that this is at the end rather than the start due to that exhausted look of elation, achievement and accomplishment he has. quite different from me, then. i am not so fit. as in i would probably keel over and hope for medical attention after a few steps of such a race.

let us progress away from Aotearoa for now, then, and on to Azania. such as it was spoken by the Greeks, who i quite like.



yes, indeed. well, no, but yes. my brother Richard, to clarify, is indeed encouraging his (and his lovely wife's) three children to embrace the art of riding a camel. this is one of the single most valuable life skills you can get, and it is my shame that i have made no such effort to teach our boys how to do this. oh well, never mind, i am sure they will work it out as and when required.

actually no, not really. we don't get so many camels here in Yorkshire as you would think, so i am not entirely sure that they will encounter a camel. or have need, for that matter, to ride one. but still, it would be jolly handy if they could.



quite right, yes, that is young Daniel. he is proudly showing off some of them fancy - i think they get called "tye dye" - t-shirts what he made. the purpose of making them was to sell them so as to raise funds for his school. a most noble action, and a successful one as i believe he sold out in a short space of time.

such wizardry in the ways of business will, no doubt, attract the attentions of his Grandad. young Daniel may well find himself producing more and have the expectation to sell further and harder so as to please his Grandad. i am certain he will take such a challenge on and succeed.



to bookend, then, there you go - Gillian engaged in the completion of the same race what we saw Grant in at the start of this post.

it would seem that Gillian has her headphones on, which would mean some quality vibes were listened to throughout the race. i would have every confidence that The Stone Roses featured on the playlist, along with other bands who aren't quite so good but try all the same.

anyhow, back off to my world and those things what i must be getting on with.



be excellent to each other!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
