A bit o'shopping

So a trip to Merry Hell; some stuff I needed and just some general browsing. Anyway Battlestar Galactica Season 3 is out. £49.99 from HMV, £40 Virgin, £39.93 WH Smith, and £34.95 Sainsbury's oh and £37.98 from Amazon. Kind of fun when they put them next to Season 2 at £20.

HMV have obviously reopened and with a whole new look and a great smell of builders dust; big open aisles with flash shelves makes it feel even more sterile and unwelcoming.

Passing back and forth I ended up walking behind a girl who was wearing this severely short skirt and was hanging off the arm of her boyfriend; possibly for support. Seriously, from ankle to knee her legs were bone-thin up to a bulge inwards at her knees, before another bone-thin straight section that visibly angled outwards vanishing beneath the skirt. Now don't call me a body-fascist, but she was obviously happy enough to be wondering around showing her legs off. Sure she might have been ill, but if that wasn't how she looked normally why would she want to show herself off like that? And if she wasn't ill, what does it say when someone is happy to wander around looking like a famine relief poster child.

Looking at the traffic situation with the Dunley Road closed off for this week (it should be easily and quickly bypassable) I spotted something interesting on the Worcestershire hub, namely the Bridge Street work listed as starting on the 17th of September and finishing on December the 14th! Excuse me three months more unknown work starting today?

And yes I will post the carnival photos,hopefully tomorrow.
