what’s behind the road sign
a geocache of course
the poppy on the drive
this poppy has sprung up in a crack in our driveway. well done it.
fruit smelling balls
this sounded rather ‘south park’ but it did get me wondering why you’d want a fruit smelling ball. (and why ‘smelling’ is written so small-ly). perhaps it’s to ofset the smell of stinky footballers feet ?
the avro lancaster
we went to a donkey derby yesterday which included a fly by of a rare avro lancaster
according to the blurb in the program it was “an underpowered and singularly unsuccessful aircraft”. classic british design therefore
there’s only two in flying condition in the world, the other being in canada
this one did a couple of nice swoops over the local houses
just look at the state of this chap’s aerial
a great show
here’s the complete set in case you are interested. and if not, why not ? don’t answer that.
weaving

hassock of the week (special guest edition)
this hassock was sent in by top regular reader phil. he explains it thus:
My girlfriend came third in an embroidery competition for
Livery companies, organized by the Broders Livery Company(embroiders), attached
is a picture of the second place entry. I am sure that this has to be ,at least
a candidate for hassock of the week
I think that this is going to be my one opportunity in life to
say that, and as I am never one to miss an opportunity, I had to take it
Thanks Phil !
exit via the alligator
do you see what they did here ? it’s a good way of making sure no one ever gives the zoo a bad review AND it keeps the alligator fed
check your speed
these are cute speed reminder signs.
an outrageous spoon ratio
the latest spoon situation at the regulator. often the spoons are shared fairly equally between two saucers, but last time i went there was a huge imbalance. whatever happened to impartiality ?
