From this BBC article.
A washing machine complete with a warning not to put anybody inside has been given an award for the “wackiest warning” by a US lobby group.
Have you seen any particularly wacky warning labels on things? My hairblower has a warning on it saying it should not be used in the bathroom. 😕 Seems to me that’s where probably 99% of people use them.

A bit too much wine … after a bit of dancing around … the American Pie challenge!
Nog has yet to win. Anyone else out there know all the lyrics to American Pie? Eh?

Gaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa! It’s the haircut from hell!!!
I shoulda known better as it had been that kind of day. Nog met me after my first and only class this morning (we’re both off for the rest of the day) and suggested we go to see an exhibit called Discover the Discoverers at the Alcázar (Royal Palace) about old sea voyages of discovery, and then look for the wonderful wall of pointsettas there that I’d heard about. And then Nog said it might also be a good day to get my hair cut as I’d mentioned I wanted to get it cut before going to Barcelona. So, sounded like a fine plan for the rest of the morning …
