Sunday's Funnies


Dear Family and Friends, Today started with fog, we could hear the ships horns. It had cleared by the time that I went for a walk to the beach. It was mild with little  wind. I chatted to a few old mates and later refilled our water softener with salt. PM we watched more 'Bones', we usually manage 3x episodes per afternoon. Now you will be able to sample the collection of fun stuff that I have just published on the blog. Please enjoy them!






























'I want to break fee' with 130 instruments!

Saturday's Funnies



Dear Family and Friends, Today started wet and raw so I decided to stay indoors. Ironically, later the sun came out, but by then I had done my exercises and was rather hot and worn out! Later we installed some LED lighting behind my model boat collection, which worked out rather well! Now I have done some snorkelling in the morass that is the nether regions of the Internet and succeeded in bagging a number of pictures which I hope you will enjoy!






























Some tunes seem to live forever!














Acting the hero!









Sorry but that could be me!









Tibbles isn't afraid of a robot!










Who let one go while smoking in the loo???










Unusual icicle formation!

Juxtaposition!

Either very brave or very stupid!











Yummmmm!










Ooh look a smoke ring!











Yes! I want one!










Unconventional baptism!










Towser gets it!










Sandman!










I'm not sure is it glass or gloop?











Clever metal work!









Another Great Truth!












Farm girl!









Ooh! A giant choc chip cookie!









Driving range - anyone?









Is it magic?

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'?

















I can identify with this!

Plumber's chess set!










It's OK it's a whale shark - they are harmless!










OK you broke down and you can't handle it!!!










Giant tortoise made from scrap!
