Morning campers, how about we just all take the rest of the week off.
It's hard to shake off such a...
...long weekend aint it ?
I just want to go back down to my garages and mess with my cars again all day - with wife and child in tow of course. They both have their own collectors pieces...
This is Noah's
This is Tasha's
Alas it is not to be as life calls once more.
Things are disappearing and I want to call a worldwide ban on all cupboards deeper than six inches.
Not one but two pairs of sunglasses have gone walkiies, both prescription lensed up - nightmare. And the cupboard thing - well,
I went to spice up a bit of chick chick on Saturday and decided to delve a little deeper than normal, there's stuff back there that hasn't seent the light of day for months. This got me going on all the other cupboards and they were all the same from the tins to the booze, the stuff at the back ain't ever gonna get a look in.
Shallow cupboards for all that's what I say, cupboards are the none refrigerated version of freezers and we all know they're a waste of time. I can feel another freezer party coming on, we were discussing the possibility of having a joint one with our neighbours - we reckon we could feed most of Berkshire.
Fridges should have an ice cream freezer and that's it, we don't need freezers in our lives, it's one of those things we've all just gone with but none of us know why.
Happy short week again ! Whoopee !!!

Cupboards! Tell me about it.
We have a cupboard under the stairs which contains all our alcohol (spirits) and all my vinyl albums from yesteryear. To play my vinyl I have to do battle with umpteen bottles of goodness knows what - long since forgotten liqueurs from holidays past (fig cocktail, anyone?). The same cupboard also houses the crisps and sweets.
A popular cupboard, but you're in trouble if you want to play any Yazoo or Z Z Top!!
Coffee tasting surprisingly good today!

Thank goodness you're back. Glad you and the family had a good weekend and I'm with you about taking the rest of the week off.
I tided out a cupboard yesterday, I've got one downstairs (live in a flat) in the undercroft that I chuck things in. Managed to fill one bin bag and three recycling bags. I can actually get to my bike now! Did think about spring cleaning my food cupboards, but couldn't really be bothered, perhaps you've inspired me now.
Have a happy Tuesday, the sun is trying to breakthrough here in Kent.

CLP don't talk to ME about the cupboards. There's things at the back of Renee's cupboards that Damian Hirst, the Natural History Museum and NATO would be interested in. I swear. When she's lost 'er glasses or the TV remote I'm treated regularly to the alarming sight of 'er bottom where the cupboard door should be, muffled words like Damn and Blast and By The Crin and the next 3 days lookin' at photos of half the Polish Air Force and dog-eared postcards from Aunty Fanny in Blackpool. It's not funny.
Anyway the wedding went down very well thanks for askin Beez. The weather ovver t' Wrong Side of t' Pennines was absolutely gorgeous, as befits my lovely nephew, know throughout his life as Lucky Louis. Can't put a foot wrong, that boy.
The day was somewhat fraught with danger, what with the Brother-Outlaw, the cousin Baz, 2 paige-boys, a small bridesmaid who was an obvious descendant of Lucrezia Borgia, 2 catapults, water-bombs and a 6-tier wedding cake all under the same roof.
All I can say about the result of that is that it was lucky they cut the said cake early, and that the squirrel population of Yorkshire is considerably down this week from last.
AND I was mentioned in dispatches during his emotional speech, thus;
"Can I, on behalf of my gorgeous wife (to jeers and applause) and myself, just thank everyone sincerely for your generosity, we're blown away. And, by the way, looking at me Aunty (Clodagh)'s hat, it appears even she has had her purse open.." More rapturous applause and laughter.
Cheeky little bugger. I wouldn't mind but them were butterflies, not moths.
He got thrashed to within an inch of his life later so all is well.
Ok must be off. Renee's lookin' perplexed and readin' the Wigan Observer upside down. Best take her out before she starts lookin' for the glasses.

Of course, confidence has gone soaring and he's looking forward to flying on his own again....soon!

Chris that model car reminds me of of a blog entry probably almost three years ago. Rachel Blue Angel had a dream involving a model red car, marriage children, how spooky is that.

I'm reminded of the time a couple of years back when my now Dear Departed, then 92 year-old Uncle, had his mobility scooter nicked one night from outside his 86 year-old girlfriend's house. The nightmare cousin Baz insisted it was subsequently used in a daring raid on the Pound Shop in Wythenshawe.
And Christoff. If yous are likin' the sounda the All-Star formation mobility scooters, yous should get yourself to this year's All-Ireland National Ploughing Championships in Tullamore, and get an eyeful of the Dancing Diggers of County Carlow. Synchronised buckets. Oh yes. I've a video somewhere. It's not very good quality, mind; I couldn't keep me camera still.
And Beez. Oh yes indeed the pansies were there amidst the butterflies. In fact the pansies and the stuffed budgie survived the evening rather better than the butterflies did. 2 laps of the castle grounds, backwards, with a jelly baby on the end of me nose, followed by a personal best time at Flap The Kipper and there was only one left. The others disappeared without trace, save for one that was last seen floatin' in the punch and nearly choked the groom's mother, and the one Uncle Sid used for flossin' his dentures.

Well, got home, ran hot bath with bubble bar of nice things, poured glass of Pinot, Mr Deev provided a bowl of cashews, add to that the latest Mike Gayle and a face mask ... and Deev is back in the room!
Feel much better now - I reckon it was just office fatigue. Who in their right mind has a meeting a 5pm? Oh yeh - my boss!
Dinner almost ready - a masterpice courtesy of Mr Deev, and then its footie time (if I'm allowed to watch it!)

In the red corner, Errol - reigning world champion.
And in the other red corner, Diva - a regular contender who has yet to slay the might that is Errol.
Errol currently stands at 298, with 3 remaining.
Deev - 324 with 2 remaining.
Looks like the underdog finally gets a go on top. (ooer!)
