Weekend Funnies

Dear Family and Friends, Today started a bit misty, but it soon cleared to leave a sunny morning. I walked to the beach, it was high tide with not much wind, really nice! Back home I had bought a strip of LEDs to illuminate my ship models, only to find they were total rubbish! They went in the bin and I have ordered a different set. Time will tell! Now for more fun stuff which I hope you will enjoy!

Remember 'The Third Man'?

Thursday's Funnies

Dear Family and Friends, Today it rained most of the time, so I wimped out, and stayed indoors. I spent the morning searching through my photos, looking for a elusive piece of furniture we once had, but couldn't remember when. I found it eventually, and it was back in the mid '90s. I did my exercises, (no gain without pain)!!! PM more 'Bones' episodes, and now it is that time again for me to create tonight's blog which is chock full of pictorial fun, which I hope will be entertaining!

Must be dead!

Midweek Funnies

Dear Family and Friends, Today dawned with fog and mist, but the sun soon came through. I walked to the beach and it was very calm and pleasant, with plenty of people out and about. We did some re-organising in the study today. A new shelf arrived which we fixed to the wall for my ship models, and other stuff was moved around. We are happy with the result. PM we are now on Series seven of 'Bones'. Now is the time once again to gather together the fun stuff that I feel will hopefully amuse, and perhaps raise a smile!
