The internet’s famous Susi Weaser came over today in order to work from a different home to her own.
As you can imagine, Crystal Palace was aflame with the burning humour of our wit and intelligence. We had many interesting conversations that probably should have been recorded for posterity and stored in some well-guarded vault for the benefit of future generations.
Here are some samples of our conversations:
Me: Do you like my Vax Cone? It glows when you charge it up.
Susi: Why do you need one of those?
Me: Just think of the spot cleaning I’ll be able to do once the baby’s here!
Susi: That’s true, I could do with spot cleaning my rug at home, the fluff gets everywhere so I have to walk around it.
Susi: Actually, Dyson is launching something in a few weeks and they won’t tell me what it is. I’m excited.
And
Susi: I’ve got to find battery chargers that look nice for this article.
Me: I love battery chargers! Energiser and Sanyo both have nice looking chargers.
Susi: I’ll send it to you once it’s done so you can enjoy reading it.
And
Susi: You like To Do lists don’t you? Check out this To Do list app I’ve got.
Me: That’s great. I’ve been looking for something like that. I’m not happy with the solutions I’ve found so far. [Insert lengthy conversation about To Do lists apps followed by a digression into the wonders of Drop Box and Fresh Books].
Etc etc all afternoon.
So, as you can see, the nation really has missed out on something magical happening right here in my living room and it’s a poorer place because of it.
Next time maybe I’ll set up a webcam and you can all sit and gaze, agog at just how interesting two humans can be. In the meantime, here’s one of my favourite videos we made back in the Shiny hay day about a gadget no one was interested in.
