Funnies for a New Week!

Dear Family and Friends, Today was mainly bright but with an icy North wind. I walked to the beach and watched the ships. There is a dredger working in the harbour, it has one of the biggest backhoes in the world, the bucket can hold as much spoil as a container! I worked on my fishing boat, another coat of paint on the hull, and the gunwales are now painted too. PM we continued with 'Foyle's War', we are now on series 2, but there are 9 series so that will take a while! Now for the fun stuff!

This isn't quite what it seems, the boy is Tim and he is quite famous in France.

PS I hate the silly subtitles!

Skittles!

Thanks Stuart!

Not funny but nostalgic to my generation!

Ouch!

Ecclesiastical Truck!

Stop motion!

Maybe the Corinth canal?

Health and Safety where are you?

Mini car strategic problems!

That drift is DEEP!

I remember this when we started cleaning the fish there was not a gull in sight, but within minutes they were there in their hundreds!

Must be Russia!

Pedantic English!

Mars and Venus again!

Boom Boom!

The Master Speaks!

I am old enough to remember when these were a thing!

I won't fall into the trap of saying 'Two big birds'!!!

Trampoline skills!

Sunday's Funnies

Dear Family and Friends, Today was dull with low cloud to start, but no rain, and it did brighten up a little later. I walked to the beach, and the wind has swung to the East, and temperatures are falling. I earned a few brownie points vacuuming downstairs, and later made progress on my fishing boat, the bulwarks are now painted and I have cut all the deck planks to length. PM we watched 'Down Cemetery Road', followed by another episode of 'Foyle's War' Now once again it is my raison d'etre to find for you more fun stuff - I hope that I have succeeded!

Towser is a little 'Tea leaf'!

It's the Big O!

We'll keep your secret Grandpa!

Clever minimalist wall art!

That's what mariners call a 'Hard Centre'!

Juxtaposition!

Not many acorns about - so he's hit the bottle!

Chainsaw art 'Telling lies'!

Thieving little bastards!

Juxtaposition 2!

A bottle of beer and a flare - what more could a warrior need?

Sorry, this is long, but it resonates with me!

I am hoping that thing is dead!

He may not recover!

Geriatric Hit Parade!

Dilemma - will she get home before it melts!

Not being heightist but that girl is very tall!

Oil up the engine they said - so she did!!!

Saturday's Funnies

Dear Family and Friends, The day started wet but it dried up later.I didn't walk today but did exercises instead. I made progress with the model fishing boat, the two parts of the hull are now joined together and I have built the stand. PM we watched 3 episodes of NCIS. Now I have visited the hell hole that is the nether regions of the Web to bring to you the very latest fun stuff. Hoping that you like them!

Like me he has Apple kit!
