T800..?

Came across a contractor using one of these on a steep bank in the park this morning. It definitely brought out the inner child in me; it was like watching Robot Wars but on steroids LOL.

The guy very generously asked if I wanted to try operating it.

Underground Overground

The witty girls and boys of London Underground (aka TfL) have posted this for St George's Day. 

Too good not to pinch.


St George

Celebrating England's Patron Saint, a man who never set food in Britain. If in deed he ever existed LOL.

Naughty..?

Cod and chips, with mushy peas and curry sauce, mmm.

Really shouldn't on a Tuesday night but I thought in these difficult times for retailers,  I might do my bit for the local economy LOL.

Island Sleuth

The first season of the reimagined Bergerac was obviously enough of a success, it will be promptly returning to our screens. Great drama.

It's Coming

After an extremely wet and miserable Winter, it does appear at long last Spring is putting in an appearance. Thank goodness.

Buns

Hot Cross Buns, what better way to mark Good Friday?

Despite all the chocolate egg hunts and Easter Bunnies etc, it's important to reflect on the true meaning of Easter.

Deepest

You can tell when Spring has finally arrived, the Mower emerges from hibernation and it's time to tackle the very long, unkempt grass in the garden. To borrow from the Rod Stewart hit (penned by Cat Stevens dontchaknow), the first cut is the hardest LOL.

It certainly was hard work.
