The postman hit the corner of the kerb in the car park outside and bust the front tyre. I wonder how he will explain that to his boss.

Just seen a postie van go through a red light should I report him??

Apparently the two helicopters here yesterday evening were Chinooks.

I often hear helicopters overhead, not usually at night and this was much louder.

Chinooks are noisy, but these Osprey thingies are really loud!

We get them overhead quite often and you can't but fail to duck!

I'm starving .... holding out for a nice lunch soon at a local french restaurant.. the staff are all french, wonder if there will be any footy banter?

I won't touch Cadbury's chocolate because it's not terribly nice.

Well there's that as well. Curiously I find much of the own brands chocolate to be as nice as more expensive stuff.

What you expect it’s American they can’t do anything nicely. We mostly get passenger aircraft. Though we get every so often battle of Briton memorial flight going over on way back to base. Now they are things of beauty and engineering at its best.

The Fin Carre fruit and nut from Lidl is very good, and Hebe Jr likes their Pretzel chocolate. I'm partial to Ritter, when they have it in, especially the almond one. There's definitely a time and place for Galaxy, and Cadbury's Whole Nut (when I can find it).

They are digging up our road and laying Purple Pipes, backfilling as they go. Should be fun in about an hour as the SUV brigade collect their children from the school around the corner and try to navigate the pinch points.

Fruit and nut for me 2 of the 5 a day!🤣🤣🤣
