    This evening: birthday (not mine) barbecue, then BINGO!
    Tomorrow: cleaning windows.
    Plans get a bit vague after that.

    Apparently this is only the 5th time in the last 100 years that it's been on public display.
    Yep, don't want too many people spotting that it's a fake.

    Stunning likeness of Jaques de-Molay, don't you think?

    The Beatles were personae non grata, what? up until the late 70s? A copy of their first album would get you banged up long after Lennon had been shot.

    Stupid country, stupid people.

    I say if it was good enough for Tolkien who lived and worked few miles away from me then it will be ok for me...

    I would think shaunbhoy has seen a bit of life, on the other hand you came from a country where the Beatles were hip in the 80s, Birmingham is the centre of the world for you (!?!?!?) and the last/first sexual encounter you had was a paid service down a lane.

    Which model?

    It looks like there's a lot of polishing to be done

    My solution when I was living elsewhere was to turn it all into lawn. I started off by renting the biggest petrol lawnmower I could, but ended up buying one.

    It would take the best part of the day to cut, rake, cut again, rake again (repeat and rinse until done). Hard physical work but well enjoyable and I'd start a bonfire in the late afternoon which would last until the early hours. Spuds in the fire, plenty of salady stuff and adequate reserves of beer and wine rounded the day off nicely.
