Mixed bag part something or other

Every once in a while you come across great ideas and the first thing yoiu say is “Now why didn’t someone think of that before?” How about wallpaper by numbers [via Melissa]. Genius.

I’m vaguely uncomfortable with this, Frank Sinatra sings “Strangers on my flight”. It’s very cleverly done - am I over-reacting?

I didn’t like the Frank thing either. It’s bigotry.

it might be bigoted karan. or maybe its poking fun at people that think that way.

maybe the trouble is that i can believe some people will like it without realising there is any irony in it.

whatever. it does sound uncannily close to the real frankie (who probably did think that way!)

My colleague John, at work, came across your blog and your entry about Property Ladder and Sarah Beeny when he was doing a search for her - it was very funny. He and his mate, like many others I’m sure, have a thing about her - he finally managed to find a picture of her in a skip and that, I think, has made his day…

Thanks for your replies guys, I was going to edit the link but TypePad is playing up at the minute so will have to do it later tonight.

Em² - dammit, now I can’t get your version out of my head!

Fluffy - I do remember your wallpaper idea

Thanks for that Richard!
