well, we're back below -15 here and the *inside* of the driver's window is now frozen. At least the trip to the airport last week appears to have recharged the battery nicely. My amp might also get done this weekend - and after dinner (which is simply some pork escalopes cooked in a hot oven in f...

If it's inside it could be a hibernating queen. Either evict or eliminate, you don't want a wasp nest in the house! My mother-in-law had one in the attic a few years back, the little varmints were everywhere and when the nest was killed there were MILLIONS of them!!!:wink: Yes the missed it...

At least the music industry never went 100% over to cassettes which they were going to do a few years back claiming that was what the public wanted :shock:

The best bit about being a grandparent, so I'm told, is winding the grandkids up and filling them full of coke and Macdonald's then giving them back to their parents. It's called revenge for all the sleepless nights while being only a parent.:D

Lots of white stuff here. The roads are really treacherous as it rained hard yesterday the snowed then froze and then snowed again. Just been out clearing the drive a bit and the footpath. I'm running out of salt, and fed up with shovelling. I'm not as keen as the neighbours though - one was out ...

Captain Beefheart has died :(. That is sad... they don't make them like that anymore. Some may say "thank heaven they don't!":? But not me, I wasn't a fan but was aware of his impact on the music scene back in the 70s. That won't be said about half the 'singers' nowadays. got to go, just he...

No, but I was awoken by the 'Dudley quake' of a few years back (thought a lorry was colliding with the flats downstairs, thought 'meh there's nothing I can do about it' and went back to sleep), and the one in North Wales when I was a kid (most exciting thing that happened that holiday!)

I had my first hairy moment of the winter yesterday. Roads were fine on my way to work, well a bit slushy, but I expected that. Then when I got to Kenilworth there was a complete white-out, several inches of snow on the road, and worryingly no traffic coming in the other direction. I'm not too w...

Had a feathery moment yesterday! Driving home from work down the lovely M11 and suddenly, as if by magic, a pigeon appeared out of nowhere and threw itself at my front windscreen with a bang that made my ears hurt! I pulled over to pick the remains off but unfortunately not enough for a pie! -...

Hello all... back again - have taken a break from here since about sept time due to work (way too much, 18 hour days...) to barely think about photography much - so...um...any exciting news/drama/spam to catch-up on? :lol: I haven't got a K5 yet (see above!), still in two minds having been blow...

We got back today to find that the guys doing the glass on the balconies probably tried to get in... they said "as of 0800 and we'll use the general key". Well, the door was locked on the big lock and I've only been out since Thursday 23rd at 1800. So they say over Christmas?! It's not the first tim...
