europrattle: Toiletry* and household goods innovations
http://europrattle.blogspot.com/2005/09/toiletry-and-household-goods.html
A bit of wotnot from a British person in mainland Europe. Sunday, September 11, 2005. Toiletry* and household goods innovations. Some product developments in the field of toiletries and household goods are, definitely, good. Also good is the Oil of Olay (Ulay? All of these things should make marketing/New Product Development type-people very proud of themselves. To inflict pain on yourself. Is it possible to use 'toiletry' as the singular of 'toiletries'?

europrattle: Merry 06
http://europrattle.blogspot.com/2006/01/merry-06.html
A bit of wotnot from a British person in mainland Europe. Wednesday, January 04, 2006. I have made some resolutions. I'll tell you about them, right here. 1 Take all that hard work in Ki-Box classes (basically, aerobics with boxing gloves on) and actually turn it into an ability to do sport: namely, join a kickboxing class upon return to London and become really, really excellent at it, resulting in new fit, lithe and marvellous looking self in time for the summer. *ahem*. So what can I tell you? What I ...

europrattle: Cleaning
http://europrattle.blogspot.com/2006/01/cleaning.html
A bit of wotnot from a British person in mainland Europe. Sunday, January 08, 2006. So as everyone knows, upon leaving rented accommodation, if you want your deposit back, it's a good idea to give the place a thorough clean. Of course, with M being back in London, this pleasant task falls to me, toute seule. Perhaps I'm being a bit harsh on myself. I have made a start: last night I took all the oven racks and soaked them in the bath, as per the piece of advice from 'Bernadette' on this page here. They mo...

europrattle: July 2004
http://europrattle.blogspot.com/2004_07_01_archive.html
A bit of wotnot from a British person in mainland Europe. Thursday, July 29, 2004. Welcome to my new blog! So I hope it's of interest. And if not, you are dismissed. PS It might be a while before I work out how to do photos and things on here - but in the meantime you can see pics of our new flat. This is a friend's website - the pics are, however, of our flat, although as we live in the same building he can get away with using them and telling people it's his apartment as they are almost identical).

europrattle: Site statistics
http://europrattle.blogspot.com/2005/11/site-statistics.html
A bit of wotnot from a British person in mainland Europe. Wednesday, November 23, 2005. I tell you what, site statistics are great. For instance, I can tell you that over the last two months of pretty stony cold silence from me, most visitors to this blog have got here because they searched for "the difference between a hurricane and a tornado", which took them to this page. I hope I was of service. Posted by anonyme at 7:25 pm. Toiletry* and household goods innovations. A Free Man in Preston.

europrattle: Fat lady
http://europrattle.blogspot.com/2005/09/fat-lady.html
A bit of wotnot from a British person in mainland Europe. Thursday, September 22, 2005. No, I don't mean me. Almost every day, as I walk to work past this graffitti, I also walk past a really very. Plump lady, on a moped. She's there almost every day, and she always looks a little sad. Today she was not sitting on her little yellow moped as usual, but leaning against a wall, still with her helmet on, still looking sad. What does she do there? Why at 9.15am every day?

europrattle: What's the difference between a hurricane, a tornado and a cyclone?
http://europrattle.blogspot.com/2004/09/whats-difference-between-hurricane.html
A bit of wotnot from a British person in mainland Europe. Sunday, September 12, 2004. What's the difference between a hurricane, a tornado and a cyclone? The above question was one of many that M, the Canadians, an Irish chap and I pondered last night, during a long afternoon and evening of wine, beer and grappa. (If I never smell grappa again it will be too soon.) The answer. So now you know. Getting Mabel into her blue-plastic-wire-fronted-very-this-season cat box was something of a trial in itself, as...

A bit of wotnot from a British person in mainland Europe. Wednesday, September 07, 2005. Today (via Random Reality. Which absolutely blew my mind. You'll see what I mean. Anyway. On a happier note, may I introduce you to my other blog. It's devoted to the single topic of M's sleeptalking. I hope you enjoy it. And my final bit of news: look what. Was released this week! PS Sorry. That was a very dull post. I promise to do better soon. Posted by anonyme at 8:26 pm. A Free Man in Preston.

europrattle: October 2004
http://europrattle.blogspot.com/2004_10_01_archive.html
A bit of wotnot from a British person in mainland Europe. Monday, October 18, 2004. Just a quick one. Today I bumped into one of the two tall blonde ladies from my first evening out, all those weeks ago - the one who was not the Finn. In fact, I was lucky enough to bump into her twice, giving not one but two sets of passers-by the chance for a smirk, dressed (by chance) as we were in exactly the same coat. So, la fin de la Finn. Posted by anonyme at 11:21 pm. Thursday, October 14, 2004. 2 I'm not convinc...

A bit of wotnot from a British person in mainland Europe. Saturday, September 17, 2005. I have that feeling of doom that comes after a night of too many white wines, not enough food and far too much conversation, during the course of which I may or may not have said embarrassing and personally revealing things. I must go. There are activities I must undertake that will distract me from this feeling of having acted like an utter muppet. Posted by anonyme at 1:41 pm. A Free Man in Preston.
