Can anybody identify this bike? Sorry the picture is not very good but if it had been better I might not have had to ask for identification! ^_^

The headbadge is reminiscent of a Gillot, but its not the same...

Just carried out a small repair on the draw-string bag which holds my sleeping bag as one of the straps had pulled off.

I found it surprising difficult to thread the needle as I couldn't really see the eye of it, or the end of the thread; leaving me wondering is it time for reading glasses or a more powerful light bulb:cry:
Sometimes the end of the thread splays out and actively resists threading. With a little humidity, fold the thread near the end and see whether the folded end threads more easily without the splaying. (Family of boys, we had to learn these things.....)

Tell me about it... :wacko:

Now there's Saturday night to negotiate. *wibble*
A bridge to be crossed when we get to it... I do feel slightly less apprehensive though, after the way our (once more changed) defence coped with the constant Liverpool pressure tonight. Martinez was magnificent again from what I saw and heard. I certainly don't worry about him being in goal now.

Emi Martinez has pretty well much been our best player alongside Bukayo Saka since the restart. When Leno recovers from injury, the gaffer is going to have one heck of a decision - there's no guarantee Leno will go straight back into the side the way Martinez is playing.

And that's not just my thoughts on the matter. Various pundits and commentators have said much the same.

This part of the storm looks cooler, though. Manipulated in Photoshop

Apart from the City game, we have just two matches left in the Prem - away to Villa and home to Watford. Both very winnable but Watford are one of our bogey teams and they (along with Villa) are fighting against relegation. If Bournemouth get a result against Southampton on Sunday, and Watford lose to City on Monday, Watford may well drop into the bottom 3 by the time we play them. We could potentially relegate two teams in our last two Prem matches this season!

Do you live in 'tornado alley' then GA?
No, I live east of there. That's why I have more moisture than they, but that also means my tornadoes are usually wrapped in rain, hence the use of Doppler radar. Often, tornado warnings come from radar indicted threats. Often, around here, tornadoes may come at night, and be hard to distinguish as well. Like in the deep south.

I live in the middle of Illinois, but we get quite a few tornadoes as well. I have seen about ten, but I photograph weather phenomenon as a hobby, so these were probably a part of the territory. I don't particularly look for tornadoes. Too many accompanying dangers, and everything can go sideways on you in a great big hurry. For an example: just now, as I was eating dinner, there was a gentle rain and some thunder. Now, high winds, torrential rain. All in the space of two minutes.
