Morning

Driving to Whitby for a long 10 mile walk along the coast followed by Fish and Chips

@all in cloggers - Good day drinking!

@Nick, alias - Good day shopping and Geordieing respectively

@Zeity - Happy lizarding

Alias isn't a Geordie he's a smoggie....

Alias isn't a Geordie he's a smoggie....

Technically, i'm not a smoggie either

But that's got nothing to do with my day...it will be a day of ferrying the kids around to various clubs

[Alias]

Not really to do with anything but mostly true...

Morning all.



Just to celebrate the weekend, the gigantic telly I was given some years ago decided to blow up 8 minutes into the prog I was watching.

Deep joy.

Off to find a new one in a charity shoppe.

Ho hum.

One of the tasks I may get around to this weekend is taking my old 1980s-vintage Grundig CRT telly to the tip. It still worked the last time I used it, but it's been useless since the digital switchover. Mind, maybe somebody's fixed the house's communal aerial since then, in which case the digital box would work again.

I'll give it a try before finally carting it off. I made my three-yearly declaration of not having a telly to TV Licensing last week, so I suppose if it works I'll have to pay them after all

Lots of Richard III shenanigans going on in the city this weekend, and indeed next week. I saw many students heading into town from their accommodation blocks, attired as tourist guides.

Seems a little odd that people will get guidance and information about historic Leicester from people who probably only came here a year or two ago, and who will probably leave again in another year or two.

Still, I suppose the alternative would be letting the locals loose on the hapless visitors; and I think everybody realises that would not be a good idea

The king's cortège will pass the end of the road on which I live, about three-quarters of a mile away. I don't think I'll put myself to the trouble of ambling up for a gawp, though.

Right, breakfast has been eaten. Pairing those Gloucester Old Spot sausages with applewood smoked bacon makes for a good sandwich

Once I've finished my coffee, I think I'll get the washing on and work on my Google Maps toy from the other night
