My boss at Lambeth

I saw a job reported about on the BBC website and immediately thought that my boss at lambeth parking, Carena Paget,would be going for it and should get it hands down !

The witch job that pays £50,000

A job centre is advertising a "witch" vacancy with tourist site Wookey Hole, in Somerset, for £50,000 a year.

The witch, who has to live in the site's caves, is expected to teach witchcraft and magic.

Wookey Hole staff say the role is straightforward: live in the cave, be a witch and do the things witches do.

The advert for the post, placed in the local press as well as job centres, says applicants must be able to cackle and cannot be allergic to cats.

The job has come up after the previous witch retired from the role.

"We are witchless at the moment so need to get the role filled as soon as possible," said Daniel Medley from the tourist destination.

'Key career move'

"Wookey Hole wants the appointee to go about her everyday business as a hag, so that people passing through the caves can get a sense of what the place was like in the Dark Ages.

"This was when an old woman lived in the caves with some goats and a dog, causing a variety of social ills, including crop failures and disease."

The £50,000-a-year salary is pro rata, and based on work done as needed, largely in the summer holidays, but also at Halloween and at Christmas.

"Wookey Hole is advertising nationally and hopes to attract a strong field of candidates with the £50,000 serving as a major incentive," said the site.

It said ambitious witches looking for a "key career move" should arrive dressed for work armed with any "essential witch accoutrements".

Due to sexual discrimination law, the job cannot demand that the post is filled by a woman.

Under sexual discrimination law, unless Wookey Hole can provide "documentary proof that the original witch was female it can't issue a gender-specific job description".

Interviews, which will involve on-site assessment incorporating a range of standard tasks, will take place on 28 July at 1100, stipulates the advert.

Kuryakyn Products 'Aircraft style' Flush Mount Gas filler cap.

Although I'm naturally averse to 'accesorization school of customization, there is a piece of off the shelf kit that I'd wanted to put on my sportster for a couple of years but as it was strictly aesthetic and non performance practical it kept getting put off and the funds used elsewhere. However after a boring evening on ebay and finding myself on a a page of Kuryakyn accesories I put in a low bid on an aircraft 'style' flush mounted gas cap.........a screw in one which didn't need welding etc but fitts in the stock tank filler hole, thereby dressing the tank filler to look like it's a genuine welded in flush filler. I then forgot about my bid and a few weeks later recieved an 'e'mail from 'e'bay reminding me I had to pay for it as I'd won.
It arrived and I've gotta say, it was so easy to fit. - it took about 10 minutes reading and orientation and about 5 minutes to actually fit.
It is exactly as Kuryakyn say :-
- High-tech look of aviation-style fuel fillers
- Simply screws into the stock opening in your gas tank
- Keyed entry permits the low profile and prevents unauthorized entry
- Outer rings prevent chips around gas opening
- Kuryakyn's Flush-Mount Gas Caps are available in vented and non-vented styles for 83 and later screw-in style tanks.require reusing

Sons Of Anarchy - Bykuz.com

Yeah I was surfing the other day and visited one of my most favourite sites - bykuz.com.
at present there is a large amount of interest in the new Bravo TV series 'sons of Anarchy, due to start very soon here in the UK. Like the guys at Bykuz.com I also caught several episodes in the USA and think it is a pretty entertaining series.
Most worrying is the fact that some guys , I suppose the same way as Trekkies do, take the programme and dress up and pretend to live the life. One even asks whether there are plans for the series creators to establish the club for real...................Muppet...........he probably wrote off for a membership aplication after watching the Godfather movies.....! - shouldn't be allowed out without a nurse medication or no medication !

Sons of Anarchy.

I caught the premier of this new TV show whilst in the States August 2008.....watch it and decide for yourself. Without a doubt it is well researched and gets some things right and others wrong..........Hey ....It's entertainment ! although having seen a couple of muppets comments on the forum/blogs to the series from individuals who ask - where they can buy a set of Colours/Patch, and another asking if the series producers have any plans to set up an MC from the series....? I despair..........I guess the one individual probably wrote off for an application form to join the mafia after seeing the Godfather movies ! some people shouldn't be allowed out without a nurse !

The Sons of Anarchy is a fictional - yes fictional ! outlaw motorcycle club with many charters in the United States. The Charming local is the original founding charter of the Sons of Anarchy.
The show has already aired in several European countries after the success in the US, and is due to air in the next few months in the UK on Bravo.

Oscars Nomination

was initially really astounded/dissappointed that the movie 'Defiance' with Daniel Craig was not up there in the main Oscar nominations. Granted it did get a nomination for the music score but nothing more.
But then when I began to think about it in context I began to feel a lot better about it.
Firstly, the Oscars being industry awards, are really about little more than a pat on the back and marketing - oscars not only increase the bums on seats, longevity and DVD sales of the movie but secure the bankability of actors and filmakers alike for the next project. It's the Movie 'Business' lets never forget that.
Secondly, ok the publicity of the oscar nomination/win does help but as long as the movie was made and watched then the story has been told.
Thirdly, yes it's a great story,a true story, but although it is a story well told, cinematographically well made,it isn't a G.R.E.A.T movie.
I guess it's just unfortunate that often a story worth telling doesn't get the attention given to some indulgent piece of fiction.

I think the most dissappointing thing I saw about this movie was a description on a major website movie chart as "a movie about 3 Jewish brothers who get revenge for the killing of their parents"...........mmmm
