Monkeys - more comments

Problem
What do you say to the member of staff you meet on the path in Singapore?

Answer
"Have you seen the monkey?"

He answers enthusiastically:

"Cannot catch. Monkey very clever. Cannot kill. Government catch three families. One got away."

A bystander says afterwards: "He can't catch it. The government can."

Except for one.

Watch this space. On second thoughts, make that watch this tree.

Sea Pebbles Secret Behind the Smile

Sea Pebbles - see the fish motif with the name Sea Pebbles above it on the t-shirt? Yes, this is the man you've seen for years at Sea Pebbles fish and chip restaurant and take-away in Hatch End. The reason why he's smiling is because he has a new restaurant opening within the next month, fortnight hopefully, in Bushey Heath. It's where the Catch restaurant was, just near the car park. As soon as the builders have got it all ship-shape, so to speak. It will be open. If you are driving through the area, keep your eyes open for the new restaurant. He's promised to email me when it opens. I gave him my card. I hope he remembers. I want to see it and sample the fish and chips.
