Quick! To the Bat Trousers!



Sometimes I see words that make me happy. In today's newspaper there was an ad for Fletcher Jones that pronounced "Trouser Bonanza!" Say it aloud. Go on, spoil yourself.

In the Eastern suburbs local paper where I used to live, an ad would regularly appear for "Chainsaw School". I always wanted to go to Chainsaw School.

Husband recently read me a wildlife rescue story featuring a Bat Hospital. I became very excited. Did the Bat Hospital have a Bat Ambulance Service? Would new arrivals be sent to Bat Emergency? Would serious cases be sent on to Bat Intensive Care? Would Bat Doctors demand Bat Cat Scans?

Who needs drugs to have fun?

I am still amused by the French word for sale "solde". When you see it in the windows of shops "solde! solde! solde!" it makes me giggle as I think, why advertise it if it is sold? : )
