Dear Family and Friends, Today was a great improvement on yesterday. I walked to the beach, and made it to the far end of the promenade for the first time for several days - it's amazing what a little sunshine will do. I am now working on the rigging of my ship model, which is unbelievably fiddly! PM we watched 3 more episodes of 'Bones', they are really old  as evidenced by the flip phones they are using! Now for your funnies!














The Darkness have a new version!

Thursday's Funnies

 

Dear Family and Friends, Today it rained all day with strong winds. I therefore gained a few brownie points and vacuumed the ground floor, an then applied silicone to the bed frame. Now that we are nearing Christmas, I must yet again confess to my liking of Christmas lights with music, so each day you will see things like this below. Please enjoy them!

Midweek Funnies



Dear Family and Friends, Today was similar to yesterday, bright early and cloudy later. I walked to the beach, and later we hit Lidl for a few more Christmas bits. PM we had more episodes of 'Bones'. We are on series 3, but I have just noticed to my chagrin that there are actually 11 series! Now I have trawled up more material which you will find fresh and new, and amusing too!

Juxtaposition!














Actually another juxtaposition!

Straw Bale Art!














I wonder who is afraid if whom?













More straw art!

















Love the Cousins' slogans!















Oh! Puck!
















Star Wars birthday cake!














Jump man - jump!













Grammar!

















Yes who tried first?















Very satisfying!

















Physics Fun!















Venus and Mars again!















Dad Joke!













Carols! 
















Ooh! Teacher!
















Meanwhile down on the farm...........!

















Remember 'Cheers'?














Liking the Moves!
