Just looking out of our windows as I write this and I have the residue of our low key, low budget, Christmas shindig FAKE snow on the windows with a backdrop of the biggest fattest REAL snowflakes ever. I mean, boy was it fun squirting that fake snow on the windows. I mean really really fun. But surely nothing in the world (or at least the snow-related world) beats snow falling down on London? ESPECIALLY when its been happening everywhere else all day and not settling here in central.

So this is the theme of my pondering. Which version of things is better: Fake or Real?

Noooo noo noo not thinking page 3 material here. More like, What’s better fake banana flavour or real bananas. Definitely real i’d say. What about Xmas trees- there’s this whole eco debate- (and perhaps some would say an aesthetic debate!)- what’s better for the environment real or fake?

I’m thinking REAL will triumph over FAKE in most cases, but also getting quite into thinking about the anomolies where it’s all about the phony imposters.

So I put it to you:

What’s better Real or fake Coffee?

Real or fake money? (gotta be a diehard monopoloy fanatic or true crusador against capitalism to go for the latter..surely..)

Real or fake flowers?

Real, or fake, fires. That plastic molded charcoal that flickers electronically and is tipped in fake fire effect oranges and gold.

Fake sea (swimming pool) or real sea (ocean- seaweed? Tsunamis?!)?

I think I’m more of a realist. But I’d like to hear what you think
