Today it's not going to rain. It should be a nice day. I'm spending it indoors doing a first aid course....

Early start, bit of XC while its pleasantly sunny. Its going to be a bit soggy under wheel though.

Morning. It is sunny here but with some thin cloud about . I'm just about to go and make another
The weather here yesterday was lovely and sunny but windy. We went in to town to see what display the museum had put on for the D Day aniversary . They had managed to put on quite a good display with some re -enactors outside with weapons . I didn't know that parachutes were that big !
We wandered up to an antique shop looking for any old clothes suitable to pass off as WW2 period as we are minding the museum for a couple of days.We discovered that the antique shop was having a closing down sale ! We didn't find any clothes but I found a nice silver ring with a faceted tigers eye stone.

I use the garage in the village for MOTs - and have for years. In the best part of two decades of driving across 3 cars have only had three failures, one on each car. One was on the front suspension (the roads out here are truly shite) and the other two were general wear-and-tear (one general tinworm, one knackered brake pipes). Not bad considering all those cars were 15 years old and up.

If you walked into my favoured station, it's in a village, the fella appears dour until you get to know him, the place is an utter shed, messy and unkempt....but its no nonsense fair attitude brings people back. My late brother was always searching for places that do cheap MOTs...and accordingly often came back with a load of (probably uneccessary) work done on his cars. I tried telling him but no....a cheap MOT is the kicker for some people, no matter what.

Washing is on the line, litter tray us clean, bins emptied, fingernails trimmed. Typical Sunday morning.

The tea maker the selling point?

For me, it may well be.

I like Maggie Thatchers' armored bus, as well. I'm not allowed to own a tank, I'm afraid.

I have been up the garden watching a Dragonfly . It had already emerged from it's empty and was crawling up from underneath a leaf.
I have come in for a rest for a while whilst it hardens off.

I've been smelling bad recently.

Two days ago I told my brother about some 'famous' author/screenwriter whose name I couldn't recall who'd apparently been looking at my 101 Songs About Robots blog. My brother was understandably unimpressed.

Today, as usual for a Sunday, I'm listening to 6music and by some bizarre coincidence, the auther/screenwriter Frank Cottrell-Boyce is presenting a show based on robot songs... he even mentioned my blog and described it as 'wonderful' and 'full of surprises' (grammatical surprises I expect).
