Hush Puppies

College Christmas dinner last night. I always make sure I get there early since there isn’t enough space to sit everyone in the canteen and I don’t like eating whilst sitting on the floor. It was nice food; it always is on this occasion. Read something on the internet about tides, I’ve always been uncomfortable about Physics text books explanation about this, they always talk about centrifugal force and the like. But I found this website that is basically about misconceptions in physics with many bad examples of incorrect explanations from text books. It has a lot about tides and now I think I understand what they’re all about. Why the big interest in physics text books? All will soon be revealed. I played in a table tennis comp today. I used to play a lot, my dad ran the local youth club so my friends and I would spend all Saturday there. I was quite good but whenever I played in a competition I was suddenly useless. My friend, Paul Toogood (Toog) was really rubbish but he was an only child and his parents took him on a table tennis coaching holiday. When he came back he still looked rubbish but thrashed us all. Toog also had the most horrible shoes any of us had ever seen, we were all glad he had them though because we had a lot of fun laughing at them. They were two tone suede. His mum had bought them for him and he couldn’t get any new ones until he worn them out. That’s why he always dragged his feet trying to wear them out. It took him several years. Good quality shoes hush puppies.
