Glenners, took the wheels off, but I do need a rack.

S&M, how did you drive the Jagdpanther home with no wheels on?

The roof on our outside cludgie is reputed to be part of a Ju 52 which was shot down over the airfield in 1940.

The reality is Battert half inched it from the reclamation yard in Upper Trivton when the guard dog was at the vets for an ear replacement.

I know this to be the case as I was footing the ladder for him at the time.

Reminded me of:

I just happened to glance at the night sky and I marvelled at the millions of stars glistening like pieces of quicksilver thrown carelessly onto black velvet. In awe I watched the waxen moon ride across the zenith of the heavens like an amber chariot towards the void of infinite space wherein the tethered bolts of Jupiter and Mars hang forever in their orbital majesty; and as I looked at all this, I thought, 'I must put a roof on this lavatory.

It’s not old ‘Iron Annie’ out of warlord is it?

The J52 that nearly won the war?

On the bike of course.

You do make me laugh, Bomma!

Now I'm wondering what the vet replaced the ear with?

I'm thinking a door mirror from a Citroën AX, reversed, with the glass removed?

He was very funny. There's a programme about him on BBC4 at 7pm tonight.

Now that's what I call poetry.

A masterful piece of work that deserves a good wipe.
If only somebody had remembered to replace the finished roll of IZAL.
Ah, who left this old war comic? I'm in luck...

I believe the replacement was fashioned from a nice piece of pigskin acquired from Messrs. Skirt & Fillet Butchers (Purveyors of Scratchings to the Gentry) in Lower Trivton.

Hence to dog's nickname of "Porker", apparently.

Marvellous stuff

[Magooagain]

Some form of tin drums! Tops and bottoms cut off then sliced open and hammered to some sort of flatness I'd say.

[glenrobbo]

S&M regretted not replenishing the IZAL in the outside cludgie...

I hope no Trinidadian Steel Bands were harmed in the procurement of materials to clad that barn...

We've just thrown a couple of burgers in the oven, sliced them up and made sarnies with the fresh baked loaf!!!

Hellfire. I hope bobbers has finished his burger when he gets around to looking at these

Anyhow, Futtette's gone into the kitchen to "slam in the lamb", see if we can get dinner done and dusted before the Tottenham Hotspurs game this evening.

She'll give me a shout if she needs my assistance with anything, somehow I doubt she will...

I’m shattered. We (me, GF, The Idiot) were out at 6 and did just over 6km (that’s 2 gallons (Imperial), or M5 with a 12 pitch Acme reversed LH thread for you Bobbers) through the dunes. The path we wanted to use, which is flat, was basically a lake, so the only option was a more... contoured option up and down the dunes.

I’ve another field session with The Idiot booked at 3pm. I suspect we won’t go very far, either of us.

I’m toying with the idea of a takeaway for dinner tonight. That, or some cheese and pickled onion barms.

If I hear any more of that nonsense from you, young Dibble, I'll report you to the Sunday Observance Society.

Cheese and picked onion barms for Sunday dinner?
Show a bit of respect man!

Everyone knows it should be crumpet on Sundays!
