here's abit of irony,
the newly opened one pound store in bristol is closing down and having a bankruptcy sale.

does this mean that the economy is improving and bristol does not need a one pound store after all?
or is the economy so bad people are not even willing to buy cheap, low quality one pound goods?

suddenly i wish i was home.
or had my family here with me.

its time for that high five

the time has come to be still for awhile.
to allow us a moment to remember all the good times

so remember all things bright and colourful

happy 2009
may it be exactly as u imagine.
