wanna see my snake?
We were within 10' of one last week, it didn't seem to care. Then a duck appeared and it was off like a shot, stopping only briefly to grab a fish in the ducks landing zone.

Sun shining again.
Some years back I took a picture of a heron from within a few feet. It was standing by the canal just where it emerges from the Netherton Tunnel in Tividale in the Black Country.
I think the herons up that way are a much less nervous because if you've got to sustain yourself on what lives in that canal, you're more than able to knock back a nosey two legger.

To be honest I hadn't really thought about spirits being vegan! Ooops!
A quick google tells me - YES! As long as they aren't cream liqueurs we're all good!

I'm most excited about having a compost heap!
I'm so old!

Looks like we've got these storms for the rest of the week !!! (WOW ... God must be getting a lot of coal in. Do you think he/she knows something we don't ... the old Stark saying ... 'Winter is coming.' )
Just to cheer everybody up, after Saturday ... the days start drawing in ...

Rang HSBC this morning to inquire about mortgages.
Lovely gent took the usual details - I completely forgot where I lived!
Complete mind blank! I had to shout to the husband 'Where do we live again???'
Poor bloke on the phone must have thought I was a weird scammer as he asked me 'casually' three more times throughout the call....
Hope they haven't blacklisted me?!?!

That'll be all the vegan food.
I once set out on the Honda to go to Wolverhampton.
On the way, I not only forgot where I was going, but suddenly had now idea where I was.
By this point, I was just south of Dunston, although I didn't know that at the time.
I resolved to continue, until I saw where I was, on the basis that that would remind me where I was going.
I saw the tower of the church in Penkridge and suddenly 'knew' that I was approaching Kildare on my way to my uncle's farm.
Then I saw the sign for Penkridge and my 'sat-nav' had to 'recalculate' again...

If you are remortgaging try Trussle.com, they were brilliant when I remortgaged and I'll now recommend them to everyone.

My only problem is few banks are offering 10% deposits, most now want 20% due to covid19.
I'm going to need the cash to spend on whichever derelict tumble down house I choose...

Yesterday morning I woke up after a vivid dream about M&M's. Was most disappointed when I woke up to find I didn't actually have any , and been fancying them since .Haven't had them for years, or even spotted them on the shop shelves for ages.
Today, whilst giving the car a run out to keep the battery charged, stopped off in the garage to fill up. Right in front of me , sitting prominently on their own on the shelf in front of the till were a couple of massive bags of M&M's .....I was just meant to buy them!

I’ve never watched Peaky Blinders but I’m guessing that they didn’t get it from Linwood in Cannock?
