Whilst you are all noshing, I thought I might update residents with details of the capture and debrief of Old Gusset.
Having spent weeks dodging all attempts at capture, OG was finally discovered hiding in the old Cold War bunker under the Slaughterman Daughter's Arms. The smell of brewing the Spring Thunder Ale had, until yesterday. disguised her spore and a search of the underground tunnels, using the latest technology, finally discovered the hiding place.
Lo and behold, Old Gusset turns out to be none other than Herr Hauptmann 'Ginger' Beckenbrukker who went missing in '42 from Pequod Hall POW camp and has been in hiding, disguised as an old hermit, ever since!
I have made the North (secure) wing of PH available for the fellow to acclimatise to his new situation.
He was holding a picture of the Brigadier when captured ...
I'm still trying to figure out just how he survived so long out there, with the locals being the way they are!?!?! Let alone ApO's security dogs roaming about!!!!Having spent weeks dodging all attempts at capture, OG was finally discovered hiding in the old Cold War bunker under the Slaughterman Daughter's Arms.

The security in this place is in serious need of a thorough review and there is still the question of why Herr Hauptmann was clutching a signed photograph of the Brigadier...
Found a sheep on her back last night, legs akimbo for all the world to see, did the gentlemanly thing and helped her back on her feet.
Keep your eyes peeled lads when you're out on evening patrol, if you see one like that, give her a hand.
They're up the duff and inclined to tip over sometimes at this time of year, and rather like my ex wife once gravity takes over the whole ship capsizes and can't self right.

Is there an art to it or simply grab hold and turn her over???Keep your eyes peeled lads when you're out on evening patrol, if you see one like that, give her a hand.

Inverted sheep? It's a new one on me, I too would be interested to learn the correct "righting" procedure.
There's some sheets of plywood and a crate of cargo straps in the hangar if they're any good?
For a start, you need a decent pair of wellies that aren't too tight on the calves.There's some sheets of plywood and a crate of cargo straps in the hangar if they're any good?
And you need to be committed.
Could this be the English equivalent to the American cow tipping scandal?!?!?
So, I bought a watch off Ebay, I've fancied a Pepsi bezel divers watch for a while and a version of a Citizen Promaster NY0086-83L turned up with a best offer on it, which I sent and was accepted, it arrived today, I opened the box and what was inside can only be described as an absolute fake and nothing like the watch advertised, it was quite literally a cheap fake and not even a fake of the right watch!!!!
I immediately requested a return stating all the issues and despite the seller saying they didn't accept returns in their listing they immediately agreed!!!!

I'm home now after having to wait for Jane the tipper driver to deliver a load of type 1.
Top girl and can drive anything.
Although it was interesting some years back when the person loading forgot to lower the back Jib on a JCB and she lumped a local rail bridge!
A very big hoo ha and a large insurance claim and large scale repairs.
The velo rail was out of commission for over a year!

I'm making a bolognese to go in our lasagna tonight, I'm wearing a pale being tee shirt, it now has tomato sauce all down the front of it!!!
The best course of action is to chuck the whole tee-shirt into the sauce, give it a good splosh around to ensure even coverage, then hang it up to drip dry over a big saucepan so none of the delicious sauce is wasted. Mmm-mmmmmm! 
A few cans of beer will help things along nicely.
Just trust me...

I expect it's some sort of Goth thing he's into:
They're generally quite pale.
She's rather nice!!!! Thanks for the advice glenrobbo old chap, I've taken your suggestion on board and thrown myself into the sauce, it was quite a squeeze forcing my pert little body into the, OI!!! Stop sniggering slopes!!!!
As I was saying, I threw myself in, splashed around a bit and am now stood astride it gently dripping back into the pan!!!!
