So what have you done today..?

After the success of getting a lander onto a comet (albeit the thing seems to be dying through lack of battery power), I was reading about the solar system today .

Did you know that scientists have shown that the moon is moving away at a tiny, although measurable distance from the earth every year.

If you do the maths, you can calculate that 85 million years ago the moon was orbiting the earth at a distance of about 35 feet from the earth's surface.

This would explain the death of the dinosaurs. The tallest ones, anyway

 

"So you're able to carry shopping to a customer's car free of charge?" I asked the guy in Saisbury's this morning.

"Yes." he replied.

I said, "Can you carry mine for me?"

He said, "Sure."

As we walked across the entire distance of the car park, I suddenly stopped beside my motor and said, "I guess I could've carried it myself but I'm a bit of a lazy bastard."

"I gathered that." he replied, "Here's your newspaper."

 

you being deliberately provocative to stir up the natives ?

 

Which lane were you mostly occupying this season?

 

checked belts on 750 Elefant plus oil change so all set for the winter

 

grandchildren came today - they always call me "Spiderman"

I asked the wife "Is it because they think I have superhuman powers ?"

"No, it's because I told them that you can't get out of the bath"

 

Bought a slow cooker, made a stew.

All good.

 

went for a ride, didn't fall off

 

I too did m25 today.

Why can no one use the inside lanes?!

 

last two days have been braw, warm and sunny, got my chainsaw out for the first time this year, cut and split a pile of wood, wee man chopped a few wee Birch trees down with his own wee axe, mates up from, edinbro and the isle of millport,
last night got them stacking wood then up to the clachaig inn on glencoe, place was hoetching with fit and healthy woman adventure types (as always)band playing,whiskie drinking and shite talking, superb.
wife found me in the kitchen at 7.30am sleeping sitting up, cool i is getting better at that. one of them brought a bottle of the glenlivit Nadurra, v.nice and v.strong, empty just noticed my bottle of laphroaig quarter cask is empty also. boo. luckily they/we didnt find the right good stuff. so, soar from chopping soar from drinking and by the sounds off it our rugby team did not to bad which obviously spoiled yon Australian fellas thread.yip all good.

Funny, seemed to be fast enough for me at 72 cruising along inside without any reason to move as no slower traffic was there

Tbh it royally fucks me off. Especially 'professional' drovers like cabbies and white van man. MOVE THE FUCK OVER
