2010/05/10: 58 Wonderland moment

58

I was coming back from lunch today when I saw someone pruning the bushes
outside our office with these giant shears. For some reason it made me
think of the Queen of Hearts in 'Alice in Wonderland' who made all the
knaves paint the rose bushes red then white (or was it the other way
around?). Not really sure why my brain made that connection but there you
have it!

Someone told me about this place called 'Marvellous Orchid' on Lynwood Rd
and I went there today to get a gift for someone. I walked into this
warehouse and there were just orchids everywhere! I spent about 30 minutes
just wandering around absorbing it all before I even begun to think about
which one to buy!

(FYI: Travelling towards Silver Lakes on Lynwood Rd, Marvellous Orchid is
on the left just after Gift Acres shopping centre.)
