I hope I didn't stop you going into that bar for a quick one?

Mielessä nyt: 

pääsiäinen (hieman ylimääräistä rakkauslomaa & aikaa päällekkäin pötköttelyyn), uusi keittiö (vielä pientä viimeistelyä vailla, mutta ihana), syksyn matka (Roomaan nautiskelemaan & Marian ja Carlon huomaan?), pizzakivi (tätä ilman ei pärjää), Dennis Potterin Karaoke & Kylmä Lasarus dvd (Pavun ihana maanantaiyllätys Murulle), Domus tuolit (saapuvat vihdoin ensi kuussa), parveke & siellä silmujaan aukova syreeni (kesäksi kasvamaan tomaattia, mansikoita, rosmariinia, laventelia..), tulevan viikonlopun herkuttelu ystävien kanssa (ehkä hieman sivutaan kesän yhteistä Berliinin matkaakin?), uusi ruokahuoneen riippuvalaisin, Aallon "käsikranaatti" (1950-luvun tyyliä edelleen), porkka-kookos-inkiväärikeitto tuoreen korianterin kera (arjen herkkuja), kolmoisodotus (kaikki orkideamme ovat puhkeamassa kukkaan yhtä aikaa!), rakkaat sukulaiset, jotka kohta lehahtavat Barcelonan kevääseen (taitaisi olla meidänkin aika julkaista viime kevään matkakertomus täällä blogissa ;)).

Nothing important

René Artois: "My name is Rene, this is my cafe. But at the moment, my life is one big problem. You see, I have to be nice to the Germans. They are my customers, they are winning the war, so if I am not nice to them, they will shoot me. I have to be nice to The Resistance..."

Edith Artois: "Otherwise they will shoot him for being nice to the Germans!"

René Artois: "I have to be nice to my wife because if she finds out I'm having an affair with Yvette, she will shoot me. If Yvette finds out I'm having an affair with Maria, she will shoot me. Now, Otto Flick, the Gestapo officer, is having dinner in the back room. Upstairs are two German officers in their underwear because I have borrowed their uniforms to help two British airmen to escape. The pianist over there is in fact a forger for The Maquis. And the German officer at that table fancies me. And it is only Tuesday."

Richie Iannucci: "Okey. Goin' in to your head, you're goin' to have to choose one. Would you rather have toothpicks showed under your fingernails or take the subway, at rush hour, naked?
Doug Heffernan: "Hmm, let's... I'm going to go with the toothpicks, just for everyone elses sake."
Richie: "All right. Gime me one."
Doug: "M-okay. Would you rather have, have your big toe amputated or make out with Larry King for 15 minutes?
Richie: "We lyin' down or standin' up?"
Doug: "You're leaning against a car."
Richie: "Argh, it's right down the line!"
Doug: "Yeah. You think that one over."

And there's something else

Jim Hacker: "Sir Humphrey! To what do we owe this pleasure?"

Sir Humphrey Appleby: "Prime Minister, I must protest in the strongest possible terms, my profound opposition to the newly instituted practice, which imposes severe and intolerable restrictions upon the ingress and egress of senior members of the hierarchy and which will, in all probability, should the current deplorable innovation be perpetuated, precipitate a constriction of the channels of communication, culminating in a condition of organisational atrophy and administrative paralysis, which will render effectively impossible the coherent and co-ordinated discharge of the function of government within Her Majesty's United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland!"

Jim Hacker: "You mean you've lost your key?"

Antelope 1: "Running is mind thing. It is a mind thing."

Antelope 2: "It is a mind thing. It is not just..." 

Antelope 1: "It's not case of just putting one foot in front of another. It is a mind thing. If you haven' got the frame of mind to run that day, that time, that minute, you're only one step away from a walk. That, that just it"

Antelope 2: "That's a good point."
