Ms Batville: Sub-editor humour

Someone at The Age just could not help themselves. Nothing like an old adult cinema gag....

A few of my favourite things

Waking up on the weekend knowing you have no obligations all day
Fairy Bread
Guerlain's Imperiale perfume
Fred and Ginger films
My front loading washing machine ... I will never have to hand wash again
Leather gloves squeaking up against the leather steering wheel of my car
French onion soup on cold days
The patchwork crochet quilt my dear old Nanna made for me when I was only a little 'un
Artic Banana Choctops at Melbourne's Astor Theatre
Staying in bed on a Saturday morning in my pajamas and reading all the Saturday papers
The promise of books unread in large independent bookstores staffed by people who actually read
