A Thai restaurant in Japan

This is a Thai restaurant in Japan and I have a feeling that both nations may well have been involved in translating the name of the restaurant, stealing the typestyle from Coke and proudly sticking it outside their restaurant.

Cabbages and Condoms indeed, well I suppose it is original unlike stealing lettering from Coke.

Of course if you dear cuddly reader have another explanation I would be glad to hear it and the best selection will receive a copy of my latest ebook.

Marina Bay Gardens, Singapore is a very special place…

Leave a comment

Yes Marina Bay Gardens, Singapore is a very special place because at long last someone has discovered the Lost World of Arthur Conan Doyle fame.

Oddly enough it isn’t a subterranean world as described by the author who wrote Sherlock Holmes and spent too much time worrying fairies from Cottingley, oh no you’ll find the way in on the 6th floor of Singaporean Hotel!

Lost and Found in Marina Bay Gardens Singapore

Well it doesn’t look anything like what Sir Art. described does it? I feel let down, robbed and not only by the cost of entrance!

Romanian Honesty

Leave a comment

Shops in the the states and Europe don’t tend to be all that honest in their approach to enticing us the unsuspecting customer, with phoney discounts, rubbish made in China but with expensive ‘labels’ and so on. Which is why I thought that this sign in a Romanian shop was thoroughly refreshing.

Cheap crap Romania

I should point out that I don’t think that sign refers to the Nestle, Kraft and Kinder products below though I suppose it might thinking about it!

#Meet Justin

Leave a comment

My youngest daughter just got a new Pushchair dangly thing, a Beaver (you can tell it’s a Beaver by the faithful, natural colouring and design of course) and I was asked to give it a name.

Justin Beaver

Well in my book there could only be one name for such a handsome Beaver.
Dear cuddly readers please meet Justin Beaver, I called the new toy that because he does look rather like the… I’m sorry I had to go away and look up exactly what Justin Bieber did, apparently he is a Canadian singer-songwriter, dancer, and actor, well you learn something everyday!

Dubai has everything you would want in a vacation destination

Leave a comment

They say that Dubai has everything you would want in a vacation destination, but what do the people who live there think about the invasion of foreigners to say nothing about them being strictly non-believers.

Well I think that I have found the answer.

Call to let of steam in Dubai

Obviously if you are a local and disconcerted or angry about the number of tourists you can call the number on the back of the Toyota Pickup for a rant!

Hmm I would have thought that Dubai being something of an up market destination for the above average holidaymaker the “Call for a rant” organisation would have used a rather more luxurious automobile wouldn’t you?

Have we at long last seen something from Dubai sans bling? Surely not! No don’t worry it is still like Blackpool with Baubles or Vegas with (real) Gold leaf!

Is this sign for the English

Leave a comment

Below is an election poster for a Romanian politician I wonder if it’s for all the English people who expect millions of Romanians to migrate to England when they joined the European Union, only to discover that they err… didn’t.

A sign from a Romanian politician is it for the English

But then who would want to make an appointment at a doctors and not be seen until you had cured yourself or died? Wait ten hours at an ER to be seen by an overworked teen in a white coat, to be poisoned by all of the fumes in London… need I go on?

Oh dear! It’s exam results time in the UK…

Leave a comment

They say that Japan has the best education system in the world and believe it or not the UK is second, with South Korea third.

Well I don’t know where they people who complied that list get their information from because according to the list of answers to reasonably easy questions (that a Cat could answer without reference, and I don’t mean Google) a lot of students in the UK are very very dumb indeed.

Question: The first cells were probably…?

Answer: Lonely.

Question: Suggest one reason why it is a good idea to collect data by asking the public to observe when conkers open:

Answer: So the government doesn’t have to do it.

Question: What do the following chemical equations stand for – HCOONa:

Answer: Matata.

Question: Write an example of a risk:

Answer: This.

Question: When should a motorist use his or her bright beams?

Answer: When he wants to be an asshole

Question: Why are there rings on Saturn?

Answer: Because God liked it, so he put a ring on it

Question: Give a brief explanation of the meaning of the term ‘hard water’:

Answer: Ice

Question: What is the process for separating a mixture of chalk and sand?

Answer: A process called flirtation

Question: What is methane?

Answer: Methane is a smelly greenhouse gas which is produced when trees and or cows are burned.

Question: What is the meaning of the term ‘activation energy’?

Answer: It’s what is needed to get me up in the morning.

Terrible student

Dogs

Leave a comment

I thought I would move away from pictures of badly translate and altogether daft signs today and share a couple of pictures of Dogs.

I like Dogs in the main, which is odd for a Cat but then most people seem to think I am an odd Cat so that sort of works doesn’t it.

Dog 1

The first picture is for my pal Teagan, who I expect wishes that she was in that puddle with those pals.

If you go to Teagan’s blog here Teagan Times you will see just why I think this puddle picture is perfect!

The second picture is for Dog lovers everywhere and needs no introduction, by a Cat, at least.
