funny names

Yesterday we decided that it was about time we got some roller blinds for our living room the window faces west and as the sun sets it is blinding and we have to pull the curtains just to see.

So off we go to IKEA they build the IKEA stores like a maze and you have to pass every single thing once entering just to get out, anyway as walking around I noticed that all the stuff they sell be it a table, chair, sofa or box, they all have strange silly name's.

Now I got to thinking who the hell thinks up these name's do they have a special office for making up silly name's, why call a chair "harold" why call a table "isbit"or "llitl"why is a wardrobe called "ginflextion"any way it is just a thought, but I wonder how much the job pays because I could sit in an office all day and think of silly names for furniture.

Anyway we live about 20 minutes drive away from Birminghams Botanical Gardens and you know we have never been.

So we went and spent all afternoon walking around this haven of tranquility that is so close to the city centre. We had a really nice time and had ice creams and pop.

The weekend is here and our short break is over so we shall slob in the garden for two whole days.
