Morning everyone

Another mild start to the day. Not sure how long this good weather is going to last.

Morning all.

Overcast and dull but dry. The sun is due to make an appearance at some point this morning .

Quizzie had a walk at dusk last night. She absolutely loves going later. I don't know if it's the smells or what, but she's nose to the floor, hurtling across the fields in the most random pattern. I'm not so keen as it's not so easy to spot stuff you can trip up over .

Got to the Nano social after successful surgery to replace the clutch master. Had a good catch up with Rob (Trebor), Scott (Sewerman) and Jamie.

Mind you I ache in all sorts of odd places this morning.

Take care

Colder start to the day up in Edinburgh, fright of my life when I went out to feed the Guinea Pigs when our cat decided to fight another cat under the kids trampoline and both ran out hissing each other!

Default The Black Pearl.



Seventeen years ago Derek (Windrush) ordered a car from Swain and Jones in Farnham Surrey, The Black Pearl the name that I call her was off the assembly line on the 2nd of December 2004 at 15.15pm, she was the 168th 75 Tourer in Pearl Black to be made out of 229 tourers in this colour. today she is seventeen years old and when she was first registered and picked up by Derek with loads of added extras. miss him lots.

Happy Birthday Black Pearl and here is too absent friends.

Rev Jules.

Afternoon all, Brr! It's getting cold out there now, Just harvested another bucket of potatoes & it's brass monkey weather.
Configuring that HHD drive with the latest Linux 20.2 Uma OS cd that arrived in the post today so that's installing on the other desktop.
Gotta find something for tea, Might be a pizza night.

Not really been a good time for the family in the last couple of weeks. I lost an aunt a week or so ago, just found out my last remaining uncle passed away. Don't think I'll be going to my uncle's funeral, he lived in Tasmania! Only one aunt left now.
