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

Just get someone else to do the driving. You go along for the ride as gunner or tank commander.

Been yellow stickering in Tesco.

Thanks to yesterday's deluge, it was all bbq type meats, soft fruit and asparagus.

The fridge and freezer are suitably stocked.

Now sitting watching England v Scotland

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.

I think I pay £56 for an MOT.

Not cheap, but the place is on the doorstep and I'd be hard pressed to find anywhere better around here.

Or I could join the National Guard, and get paid to do it.
Oh, that's right.
A- Danged near 60.
B-Leftist.
C- Already work Saturdays.
D- That whole bicycle thing, which also tags me as B-above.
Although I have ridden around in the 105mm howitzer when younger. Journalism type thing.

Actually, I was approached by my major at work about getting bicycles for, and training, park guards on their utilization.

Just one problem with that.

US National Guard don't use British tanks.

Today was a damned GOOD day.

The first Dragonfly flew off over some trees and then I spotted a second one underneath some Bog Bean leaves . The second one was slightly behind the first in development and was further delayed by a rain shower. It has folded it's wings for the time being but I'm not sure if it will sit it out where it is tonight .

I have used a new shampoo, it smells quite strong.

Completed an Emergency First Aid at Work course today. Interesting stuff and I hope I remember everything I learnt as it will be very useful for years to come.

 

[Illaveago]

The one which got away !

Oh, that's what it was...

Afraid so

Next month 2 colleagues are celebrating big birthdays, 40th and 50th so there is a lot of talk about going up town for a night out, I have not involved myself in the chatter because I won't be going.
