Back from watching the latest Mission Impossible. Loved it.

Who's ready for Antonio?

I'm going to work. At least I'll be getting paid to get wet!

Who's ready for Antonio?

I won't need to water the triffids.

Day spent watching cycling on the TV. I think the cricket will be washed out.

And I will need to sort out my car insurance.

During this afternoon's downpours I ended up doing the things I was saving to do during tomorrow's ones. I may have to do a bit of bike fettling instead on Saturday to fill in the time before heading into Ipswich for a colleague's leaving do.

 

[Reynard]

Another restless night

Morning .
Raining here , trees swaying back and forth a bit . Can't really see how bad the wind is yet but the telephone wires are only swaying slightly.

The rainy season continues.

I picked my dad's old 6pdr brass ashtray last night and thought I would check in my book to see what the writing on the bottom meant . 6pdr 7cwt means that it was a round for an anti tank gun . This morning I thought I would compare it with a shell case that I bought in an antique shop in town . Similar stamping ,both dated 7/42 Lot numbers differed by just 70. I just found it a bit fascinating!

What a glorious summer's day outside, it's full bore wall to wall outside







In other words it's raining. .....

In our town museum they used to have what I am sure is the pointed end of a 22mm incendiary cannon shell from the war . It was found in the river some years ago . The tip has been dented and the back end of it has corroded or burnt away. I need to get an opinion from an expert as to whether or not it is one but it makes one wonder if it was fired and hit an aircraft during the war . Beaufighter,Spitfire, Hurricane, Mosquito. Not likely to be from a Whirlwind , Typhoon or Tempest .

Well I won't be riding this morning
First cuppa went down ok
I reckon a lazy day could be on the cards once we have visited the parents, checked on the offsprings , had a walk and done some house work

Um...it's not raining. Confused, thinks it's a trick and it's just hiding round the corner.
