General drivel.

Some time ago I showed you a painting of two birds(feathered) that I did when I was 17.

An old friend called in the pub last Saturday. I hadn't seen him for 11 years, so we had a good natter,and he mentioned a mural of a record cover that I had painted on my bedroom wall. I remembered it vividly, but didn't have a photo. I was 18/19 at the time.

A couple of days ago he sent me a photo of the mural.

The album is by a German band called ELOY.

The album cover is bottom right to give it some scale.

Joke Tuesday.

A drunk staggers into a Catholic Church, enters a confessional booth, sits down, but says nothing.

The Priest coughs a few times to get his attention, but the drunk continues to sit there.


Finally, the Priest pounds three times on the wall.

The drunk mumbles, 'Ain't no use knockin, there's no paper on this side either.

General drivel.

Dad excelled himself last night with an evening meal to die for! Braised steak and mash with loads of veg.

Joke Tuesday.

Wong Chow calls into work and says, 'I no come work today, I really sick.
Got headache, stomach ache and legs hurt, I no come work..'

The boss says, 'You know something, Wong Chow, I really need you today.
When I feel sick like you do, I go to my wife and tell her to give me sex.
That makes everything better and I go to work.. You try that.'

Two hours later Wong Chow calls again. 'I do what you say and I feel
great... I be at work soon.....You got nice house.'

I thank you all.

Garden news.

I posted a photo of a Fieldfare a few days ago, but it was a bit too far away. Patience is a virtue, so they say, and I managed to get this today!

It enlarges a treat.

Joke Tuesday.

A nice, calm and respectable lady went into the pharmacy, walked up to the pharmacist, looked straight into his eyes, and said, "I'd like to buy some cyanide."

The pharmacist asked, "Why in the world do you need cyanide?"

The lady replied, "I need it to poison my husband."

The pharmacist's eyes got big and he explained, "Lord have mercy! I can't give you cyanide to kill your husband, that's against the law?

I'll lose my license! They'll throw both of us in jail! All kinds of bad things will happen. Absolutely not! You CANNOT have any cyanide!"

The lady reached into her purse and pulled out a picture of her husband in bed with the pharmacist's wife.

The pharmacist looked at the picture and said, "You didn't tell me you had a prescription."

More snow!

After a relatively quiet Saturday, with just a few light flurries, I awoke at 8-00am this morning to find it was snowing. It is now 5-00pm, and it is STILL snowing! It must have put at least another 5" down.

It made me cast my mind back about 4 years to an article published by a so-called "expert" climatologist who stated that, "due to man-made global warming snow in the UK and Europe would, in a couple of years become a rare and exciting event". The fact that there has been only an insignificant (0.1c) increase in temperatures in the last 16 years, despite an increase in CO2 emmissions throws all the warming alarmists computer predictionS out of the window!

Mother Nature will continue to be controlled by the Sun, and there isn't anything we can do about that!

Snow!

Six inches of the 'orrible white stuff today. Got to the pub and back though! I did say to Dad if he wanted to risk it. "This is just a dusting", he said.

Had to keep the birds fed though.

The last pic. is a Fieldfare. It will enlarge.

What's in your food?

Forget about the horse meat and pork in beefburgers, this is far more worrying!
