Double

When your politicians start to look like plasticine characters, or is it the other way round LOL..?

Grievance

Out shopping today and stumbled on this real life example why the Scots might feel a bit miffed. One edition is for England, and the other Scotland. I mean two pence a week extra for your tv listings guide soon adds up! 

Seriously if anyone can explain/justify this differential I'd be curious to hear.

Coffee Stop

When you're so busy you forget to have a drink, until it's nearly too late, even a stop at the supermarket seems like a victory LOL.

Wrong Way Round

Am I the only one thinking this sign should be there for those leaving, instead of arriving at, the village LOL? 

At least later there'll be lunch and dinner on offer...

Shipment

Nothing but the best, newly delivered, mmm.

What's New Pussycat

Back to darkest Buckinghamshire, might be habit forming LOL.

Understated

It's often said the British are the kings and queens of understatement:

It's a bit warm out LOL.

Bull In A...

...China Shop. Well not quite: a charity shop LOL.

In fact very recently I came across the same dinner set pattern I recall my parents had back in the 70's, when I was growing up. I'm not sure whether this was a quite expensive set at the time, or if it were "free" with Green Shield Stamps.

Yes, I did resist the temptation to purchase but I did snap this image for nostalgia sake.

Location, Location

Two drinks venues in one fine, summer afternoon. Whatever next LOL?

52

Today marks the sad twentieth anniversary of the London terror attacks. 52 people were killed and around 800 injured in a coordinated attack on the capital's transport system by four religious extremists.

Tails' End

Six absolutely brilliant seasons have finally reached a conclusion. Quite a harrowing story but compelling and highly recommended nevertheless. It's been premiered in the UK on channel 4 and Amazon Prime. Well worth watching and I may yet purchase the novel the series was based on.

One Ounce Leo

This splendid two pound coin has also been issued by Britain's Royal Mint. It's quite marvellous in all it's uncirculated silver glory.
