I like the black and white top one , but that is just me.Good morning everyone on a a pleasant garden watering morning here in the dark and dangerous north
The wonder wheel of garlic butter chicken with a heap of sautéed cabbage, onion and pea thing mixed with mint and coriander and lashings of gravy came in at 5.4 this am
Another quite warm day yesterday so kept under the trees in the park for a brisk stroll and then a slow meander down the beach - a bit repetitive I know but it gets us out. Mr Pickle’s team won this weeks footy tournament - another one next week. It’s good that sporting activities are put on over the school holidays.
Bit of a dilemma yesterday - when do you stop and put your brushes down? A bit of dry into wet on rice paper and then fiddled about with it - you choose. Have a Fabulous Friday. Koffy is on the go.

Belarus paf child's play, you try living under the watchful all seeing eye of Mrs J.

Newgale beach was the site of several family holiday dramas when I was a child. There was the time my we tried out the dingy my father and brother had built. None of us had sailed before and we consistently failed to get beyond the breakers. Retuning occaisionally to the beach to empty out the water. Someone thought we were in difficulty and called out the coastguards. Oops. We did eventually get it right and then zipped along at a breathtaking speed. Hugely exciting for my teenaged self and rewarding all the evenings and weekends of construction for my Father and brother. Later on Mum fell during a ball game on the beach.... perhaps the origin of all her shoulder troubles since?Many a holiday we've crossed the Wirral, gone over Queensferry and gone up into the Welsh hills to Bala as the next toilet stop on our way to Cardigan bay and Newgale in Pembrokeshire. Great hols when the family was young.
I remember your bit well.

Wonderful memoriesNewgale beach was the site of several family holiday dramas when I was a child. There was the time my we tried out the dingy my father and brother had built.

At the time my parents had four children, two cars, a caravan and a boat to get home. My father drove Mum home, with the dingy and the two boys, leaving myself and my sister in the caravan. He returned by train three days later to collect us.
While he was away my sister and I walked from the caravan, parked at Nolton Haven to Newgale and swam in the sea. There was a hailstorm which we ignored ( oh to be young again) when we emerged from the sea, we surprised a young man in a chip van by appearing out of the weather still in our bikinis. Think we were the only people on the beach that day.
That Errant has a secret stash - or a begging bowl. Do you have the support of someone to talk to when black dog visits?06.08.2021

His battle scars from last week are healing, small tufts of fur falling out as they do.
He has been having the same amount of food for three weeks now, but last week he put some weight on.
My battle with the black dog continues.
You can hire your local MP who will pump out more hot air than a heat pump. Keep it in a soundproof shed and poke John Gummer burgers in every now and again.Hi
This is a rant, but this guy talks sense, dont get caught out. I am up for getting my heated jacket and trousers!
Popeye sounds just like my dad.
