The Fragrant MrsP and I have been out for a bike ride, we are back now.

Cleaned and lubed the bike. Running nicely now.

Be an interesting exercise to find out if Beeching or his family had any links to, or financial benefit from, road haulage and/ or buses and coaches or motorway infrastructure construction before or after his axe fell!!

It would be all over social media if he did these days.

I think Ernest Marples the Ministrone of Transport at the time had a transport company or was some way involved in one .

13 year old daughter's hamster is on its last legs... it is 2 and we have been expecting to find him lifeless every morning, he is old in hamster terms.
Anyhow, just given him some sugary water to try and perk him up for an hour or two.
Daughter wants to make him some nice clothes to die in tonight!!!

 

[Illaveago]

Well I've been out crawling around underneath my car changing the oil and filter. I had to get on my bike halfway through as they had given me the wrong filter. It started to hail as I was finishing the job off .
Just got to finally check the oil level now .

I think Ernest Marples the Ministrone of Transport at the time had a transport company or was some way involved in one .

He was MD of Marples Ridgeway who were into road (including motorway) construction. Pure coincidence of course.

It's sad that such energetic little creatures burn up their life so very quickly. Unless like mine they like to bite you???

 

[carlosfandangus]

??

He has outlived his brother by 6 months, we know when they are about to die, they go crazy for a few days beforehand, bit like a dying fly!!
Worst bite was from a Chipmunk many years ago, straight to the bone!

I'd have chipmunks over hamsters anyday

 

[Reynard]

Lexi has no preference. Hamsters and chipmunks both get filed into the snacks-on-legs category...

Just put my painting away, as I've lost the light, my concentration has gone (all used up working wet-into-wet) plus I need to let the bit I've done dry completely before carrying on anyways.

Now sat down with a and a biskit.

 

[Reynard]

Trebuchet !

I may have to charge for the use of mine, then...

 

[EltonFrog]

Heathy egg and chips tonight. I’m hoping that the Fragrant MrsP has another Starbar hidden away for me later. ( she has to hide them otherwise I’d stuff the lot ) .

Covid19 has reached my town.
