Wii Fit spoof. And other links

I like this video spoofing the new “Wii Fit” – which is sort of like a bathroom scales add on for the wii (now largely used in this household for the BBC iPlayer, which irritatingly doesn’t even do full screen)

Also this week – Neil brought us this story of lift horror – and this video footage.

And Books and Coffee brought us this list of 1001 books to read.  I’ve read 52 of them.

And I went to see what happens to the waste that goes in our recycling bins.  More on that when I’m a wee bit less busy.
