Knowing the sort of eggs he lays, thankfully not!

Rain, tarp, dog and a stove. It's good medicine.

Wife thought I’d lost the plot because I was so excited to get out in the rain.

Joke’s on her, I never had the plot to begin with.

That's where my family were. All passed on now but one of my cousins still lives in Lerwick.

We went to have a look around Beverley Minster today and were lucky enough to catch just the right time of day for light to be spilling through a smaller, high window onto these flowers.

This is from 2008.
I attended a gathering for cooking and eating meat cooked in a hole in the ground, don´t know what it is called in english. Took some 6 hours or perhaps more to get it cooked. Well meanwhile a few pints went down the hatch.

Giant House Spider

 

[Pattree]

Careful

My daughter used to be very arachnophobic. They put a programme about arachnophobia on TV. They would have known that arachnophobes would watch it but the stupid twonks opened the programme with a sudden full screen shot of a spider. Two feet across on our TV!!!!!

My daughter ended up hyperventilating behind the sofa. All power to her she watched the rest of the programme.

The Painted Lady

Had a good old bimble around part of the Forest of Dean yesterday morning with Finn. 6 or so miles through high ceilings of predominantly oak and beech.

I know of it as a Hangi. I believe that's a Maori word, but well, Brits, y'know.... we pick up words from all over the world.
