  2. Crush a viagra, mix it with water, up they will come
     
  3. As will the weeds :D
     
  4. Got a fake text from dhl but with no number, now my phones gone squiffy. Thankfully it's so old and with no internet that a reset sorted out them rascal scammers.
     
  5. Yeah, but, I/we (read SWMBO) wants a kitchen garden so we can grow our own vegetables free of plastic wrappers.

    We still have this and more for the wild flowers:)

  9. today I learned why....

    Why did the British wear red coats in battle?

    During the recent royal wedding, the millions around the world saw that Prince William
    chose to wear a uniform that included the famous British "red coat."

    Many people have asked, "Why did the British wear red coats in battle?"

    A long time ago, Britain and France were at war.
    During one battle, the French captured a British Colonel.
    They took him to their headquarters and the French General began to question him.

    Finally, as an afterthought, the French General asked,
    "Why do you British officers all wear red coats?
    Don't you know the red material makes you easier targets for us to shoot at?"

    In his casual, matter-of-fact, way, the officer informed the General that the reason
    British officers wear red coats is so that if they are wounded, the blood won't show,
    and the men they are leading won't panic.

    And that's why, from that day forward,
    all French Army officers wear brown trousers.


    So, now you know.

  19. He’s nearly outgrown the medium wheel Beta so will be on a full size bike when he’s eleven next year.
    We stood watching on a grass bank and got talking to a family who’s son was racing one of those Ginetta’s. The dad said they can start at age fourteen. I told my lad we will be sticking to two wheels unless I win the lottery.
