Bwah, Ha, Ha

Spooky season is nearly upon on us and this TV spin-off movie will be out in cinemas, just at the right time. 

Tickets booked for the opening night; should be spook-tacular LOL.

Nought

Is this the Golden Ticket LOL..?

Ho Ho No

I've just been subject to my first Christmas advert on TV of the year GRRR.

We've not got past Halloween, Guy Fawkes Night or even the Black Friday and Cyber Monday sales!

Mystery Box

Just look what the Postie delivered! Any guesses what might be inside LOL?

Best Of Insults

Spotted elsewhere on the Interweb LOL.

Arnott's

Random things you find in your local LIDL supermarket LOL.

 

True

Found long, long ago, somewhere on the WWW.

Oak

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

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?)

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.

Day Of...

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

 

Official

It was posted by Horlicks, so it must be true!

200 And Fifty

Just a bit of fun for any visiting Transatlantic patriots LOL.

T-Time

From the official Yorkshire Tea (the best tea known to mankind LOL) Social Media team. Made me smile.

Count

Tomorrow there is a Parliamentary by-election in a place called Makerfield, that may determine the next leader of the Labour Party and therefore our Prime Minister. 

Thank goodness there are people like this guy to keep our democracy, at the very least, from not becoming boring. It is true: Count Binface (of the Count Binface Party) is standing as a candidate, alongside more run-of-the-mill* hopefuls LOL.

Happy Days.

*It should be noted Howling Laud Hope, leader of the Official Monster Raving Loony Party, is also standing.

Bra-vo

What a great name for a coffee shop, don't you think LOL? Spotted recently in Sheffield city centre.

That Time Again

It comes around so quickly LOL.
