At least he won't have to watch it on Eurosport with Carlton Kirby on commentary duties!

I'm sticking to Radio Le Mans plus whatever they're showing on Quest.

I'll miss the start though, as I'm stewarding at the joint Siamese and Oriental shows in Moulton on Saturday.

And there's the Touring Car meeting from Croft on Sunday.

I'll be a pile of goo by Sunday night. But in a good way.

What I thought was a weed growing in one of my palm trees pots outside turned out to be a potato plant, when i plucked it from the soil.
I left It by the side of the palm tree intending to put it on a nearby compost heap. As it wilted due to lack of nourishment I felt sorry for it,so I replanted it not really expecting it to survive. After a day back in the soil it's perked up. The potatoes on it were about the size of very small eggs. I'll leave it another few weeks then dig it up again to see how big the spuds are.

Ode to the solar-powered bird-bath fountain:

Saturday, installed in haste
Gloomy clouds then buckets of rain
Oh bird-bath fountain, when will you work?
Sunday came, the anxious wait
Blackened clouds became light grey
Bird-bath fountain inert again
No solar power, just more rain.

There's a lot of small spuds around here. It's like they're multiplying instead of growing.

It's still raining and the slugs are having an orgy on the patio. Wish they would keep the noise down.

A would be nice right now.

Watching the highlights of the EWC bikes from Oschersleben.

Well, they've never had one of theirs elected as party leader before....

Just been out and caught some fish and chips and now we have a little bit of sunshine .

My Long John Silvers' closed a week or two ago, so now I only have JJ's for cheap fish and chip option.

Cheap as in cheap?

Cogito Ergo Sum Ego Somnia

What is reality
Is it this daily grind
Tainted with grief and pain
In a world built by strife
Or is real when I sleep
Cradled by gentle dreams
These beautiful moments
Shielding me from myself
Perhaps there is much truth
Should I tell you that
I dream therefore I am

 

[Gravity Aided]

Cheap as in cheap?

Oh, about 8 dollars US, not bad for the Midwest.

Oh, about 8 dollars US, not bad for the Midwest.

Not cheap food with an expensive price then.

having a conversation with a stranger on your way to work may leave you both feeling happier than you would think.
