Raw power. And twin afterburners.Doesn't follow the Whitcomb area rule either, how on earth do you think it's going to break the sound barrier?

I used to play with stickle bricks when I was at nursery, good to know they are still popular after all these years

Well, the Stickle Bricks fighter plane was taxiing along the kitchen worktop a few minutes ago, but as it took to the air the wings fell off.
In retrospect, I think what people really want is transport rather than military hardware.
So I've repurposed the materials.

Just back from a funeral.One of my old mates from Royal Mail.There was laughter as his son told us stories.
So later as we were introduced i told him a story about his dad.
Mick and i both liked to do overtime.One duty got you the most money Sat night Sun morning.22-00 till 05-30.
So i asked Mick would he be doing one again next week,no he said.His eldest lad ,one of Mick's SEVEN kids,wanted to go to Agricultural College.So they were going out for a day to the Yorkshire Show Ground for a Farming Day out.Too see if he liked it.
Well there was a special area set up for the Prize Bull.His lad wanted to see it.So Mick and his wife plus seven kids approached the kiosk to pay.On finding out it was £3-50 per person on top of what they had already paid to get into the showground Mick asked about a family concession.The bloke leaned out of his window and asked are these seven children yours.
Mick smiled proudly, yes he replied.
The bloke said stay there,i will ask them to bring the Bull to see you.

Oh, heavens no. Where I start, there was lightning, and it's dark when I go to work. My employer has discouraged me from biking to work, due to my distance from job and necessity of my presence.

Apparently it isn't going to rain tomorrow so I might get some weeding done. Today is a mix ofand very heavy
Tomorrow sounds both good and bad, bad because I wont be out on my bike, good because I'll be spending a good four hours on the M6 and a dry drive will be a little bit nicer, on our last trip to Warrington we had a wet and dark drive home which wasn't pleasant.

Unfortunately my printer is about eight years old and knackered, anything colour comes out in shades of pink, prints black OK though.

That's heavily based on the Renault 10, isn't it?
We had one when I was about 11.

Looks to be a license built copy, if you ask me. Kind of like the Yugo, based on a Fiat 127.

I parked in a huge and almost completely empty car park miles away from any other cars and come back half an hour later to find some twit had parked an Astra so close to mine that I had to get in through the passenger door.
On hindsight I should have moved my car to the other side of the Astra, waited and left him/her with the same problem

The Fragrant MrsP has put the tent up in garden. This is a test run. It is pissing down with rain.
Next weekend we are go camping in Devon, I haven't been camping for 35 years and MrsP has never been camping.
We have all the gear and no idea. It will be interesting.
