Flickr

Tonight I am making insincere comments on people's flickr pictures to see if I get any return niceness.

I made a note of them all to send to my friend ponyintheair but Gmail has swallowed them all. Hopefully they'll return later and I can post them all up here.

There are some good photos of shiny red cars though.



Today school started and I ran around at lunchtime and was bored in the staff meeting so made some stupid jokes. In the afternoon we went to the infants school and learnt what to do if a child chokes - you can hit them on the back, or shove your fist in their ribs - and what to do if a child is dead - you can blow in their mouth and push on their ribs.

We got told a story about the latter. The man taking the course said that the last two times he has had to do blowing in the mouth and pushing on the ribs he kept the dead person alive for long enough for the ambulance team to bring them back to life, but he also said that both the people who were revived then died within two weeks. I thought that this was a little bit sad, and a little bit funny.

I also thought it was very funny when he said that if a person has gone into shock and is lying unconsious you should just leave him or her in the recovery position but that you should not give them anything to eat.

I now have an image of running up to an unconsious child with a plate of cake and saying "are you sure you won't have another piece of cake?" over and over again until the child wakes up.



I imagine chocolate cake would be most effective.

Check out my blog a year ago - ground hog day - if you did read that post through, i did, indeed, make the "I've gone blind" joke, as did my colleague Ollie who also wears glasses.

OK gave me back my comments - here they are...

I am bored of doing that now though, as my comments started getting a bit nice.
