Now We Know

This must be the very definition of snatching defeat from the jaws of victory. 

How else can anyone explain turning a 3-1 lead into a 3-4 loss..?

Partial Eclipse Of The Heart

Likely won't be around for then next Solar Eclipse. The Selfie mode wasn't up to the job but hey the sun dis look quite impressive as it set.

Oak

That's the decking treated for at least a year LOL.

Alliums

It's hard work watching the Bees work hard.

Two Hundredth

If ever there was proof items manufactured today do not last anywhere near as long as they used to, I have receipts.

I finally said goodbye today to my parents old upright freezer. For the past decade or so it had been running happily in my garage as a backup or additional space. This bad boy had been purchased from a store called Bejam, who were a frozen goods specialist, back in the mid 1980's. The branch in question (Woodley), according to Wikipedia, was the chains' 200th outlet. 

At the end of the 80's Bejam was purchased by rival Iceland and the Woodley branch is still trading from the same location, although now they only sell food.

It's possible the hot (for Britain) weather we've been enjoying all summer finally got to this freezer. However I think it's fair to say the family got its' money's worth from this item, despite quite a bit of food spoiling thanks to its sudden demise. I can confirm however this piece of chilly excellence weighed a ton to shift LOL.

Ramshead Manor

Nice to see the antipodean version of BBC's Ghosts has made it to these shores, joining the US version and of course the original on the BBC iplayer. The narrative is broadly the same but with tweaking of characters and local references. Establishing exterior shots, do naturally showcase the beauty of Australia, what's not to like?

Lots of fun.

Smug Much?

There must be a name (in unpredictable Britain) for that smug feeling when you wash all your bedding, dry it outside on the line and get it back on your bed in around 6 hours. I can't be the only one who feels a sense of achievement and ever so slightly smug about it LOL?

(Ordinarily my bedding would be completely changed for one of many sets I own but hey why go to that extra effort today?)

Perfect?

The weather in my little part of the UK is just right. Others may disagree but this is just fine in my opinion. Enjoy.

Ice Ice Baby

What could be better than spending some time in the company of a Iced Americano? Well, there are far worse ways to kill time LOL.

Study

YM has done really well for himself. Proud Dad moment.

Parallel

Evening out in darkest Surrey LOL.

Good times had by all.

 

Day Of...

The Triffid-like Fig is definitely trying to get inside LOL.
