Tea? (Part 2)

Just seen this on twatter, a job application letter from Leonardo da Vinci -> CLICK ME and the first thing that went through my mind was, NT is Leonardo da Vinci .................... you tell me what you want and I will not only make it but I will make the machine that will make it

Been snoozing on the sofa. Is there ?

 

[Night Train]

The car is stuffed with fire wood. The stuff in the builder's bag is all chopped. The rest of the car is stuffed with cut discs ready for chopping. I will take my axe with me.

I am really hoping I can get it dropped off tomorrow, when the kitchen cabinets are supposed to be available, don't fancy all those slugs and wood lice in the car for too long.

I am flattered.

I like the bit at the bottom of that letter that in effect says oh by the way I do a bit of painting as well

And if any of the above-mentioned things seem impossible or impracticable to anyone, I am most readily disposed to demonstrate them in your park or in whatsoever place shall please Your Excellency, to whom I commend myself with all possible humility.

Humility - my a*se - he makes himself out to be some kind of genius!










Granted, he was some kind of genius!

I especially like:

I have also types of cannon, most convenient and easily portable,

Sounds like something from an Innovations catalogue!

Well done on the logs NT, looks like it was a nice day to be out chopping wood. It's been actually hot here!

Well, it wold have been cooler, but I had to keep an outer long sleeved top on, since the zip on my trousers finally gave up the ghost, and I needed the outer top to cover the resultant gaping...

Thanks for the reminder: I need to find a safety pin for my trousers before venturing out tomorrow. It's only been a year since I swore I'd get round to mending them.

Evening All...

Jo, About The Bridge, is it back on the telly? I saw it last year and was hooked. In fact I've been looking on ebay over the last week for the DVD, but they seem to be selling for around £25. A bit too dear for me, might opt for a T shirt instead !

Evening. I don't want you to spread this about, but I might have cycled to work today.

Shouldn't that say:

After a day with my Mother, my blood pressure also goes through the roof. A glass of sparkling wine helps upon my return home.

Talking of accents, as we were, a day or so ago, I do not really have any sort of definable accent. I was born in Yate, aka Chipping Sodbury, near Bristol, but at the age of four, we went to India for four years. Then Saudi Arabia for two years. The school I attended in Jeddah, was an American School. The only other non-American at the school was a Brazilian boy. You might be able to imagine what sort of accent I had when I returned to England at the age of ten.
