      Currently watching "Grand Designs" with some lunes building a house on the edge of a North Welsh cliff.

      Which is receding as the sea washes it away.

      Also drinking some pear cider.

        One has to admire their optimism.

        Hang on, I mean "shake one's head at their imbecility". Damned autocorrect

          I find myself strangely uninterested.

          4 metres of cliff washed away last winter.

            Someone I've never heard of is finding out "Who do you think you are?".

            Basically descended from a talented banjo player.

            We are, apparently, unable to call ****** minstrels ****** minstrels any more.

              Just seen that too. About 30 miles from my Ex's family farm on Pen Llyn. Strangely enough, their 'spare' farmhouse was abandoned* about 10 years ago when the erosion got too much. Last time I was there, it had 5 times the land between the house and the sea as that place had.

              * - when i say abandoned, i mean sold to some English person lulled into a false sense of security by the summer weather. They haven't been seen since they bought it. Indeed, one of the barns blew down last winter, probably in that storm on the telly just now. Saeson twmffat.

                The banjo player appears to have torched his own pub.

                Ooooops.

                  But, but, but it's sooooo lovely in the summer.

                  In other news, the arsonist banjo player got off.

                    Until he fell off his perch at 50 odd.

                    Much weeping & gnashing of teeth over someone who's been dead for over a century.

                      You would have thought the orchard growing at 45 degrees would have been a hint.

                      Remarkably, the chicken hut (which started life as a WW2 observation post to spot Luftwaffe chaps heading for Liverpool), is utterly unscathed on the cliftop. Even the chicken tulip hasn't blown out
