Almost blossoms

On Sunday we went to some park somewhere to look at the cherry blossoms, which of course were finished blossoming. Penny made me take some shots for mum's, in the blossoms.
Very beautiful.









This is Penny with a statue of the guy who invented the Korean writing system. He is on the money too, Korea's own Apirana Ngata, except people actually know what this guy did.










The Korean road workers union came up with an 
elaborate scheme to maximize their smoko breaks, by dressing a mannequin up in workers uniform and have him stand there looking busy, or at least as busy as workmen normally appear to be. This was all right under the noses of the government and police buildings. The government officials were sitting there discussing the best communist jokes they had, meanwhile  a gang of workers were screwing the system eating all the green tea and biscuits they wanted, laughing their blue collar asses off about their ingenious plan. They were probably doing overtime too, suckers.

On a park bench somewhere in Seoul, I slowly but surely make my move.

Thanks for the blossom pictures - you know how to make me happy! Must be nice to be a bit warmer. Enjoy it now, all too soon it will be too hot! It's good to see you out in your summer clothes again though.
