How did that melt?
I'd left one of my bikes out in the sun, to make room to work on another inside the shed (I had already undone the seatpost clamp to use on the other bike but not yet removed it). Some hours later there was a loud fizzling noise and loads of smoke, didn't see any flame, but it must have got pretty hot, and it stunk really bad too.
Moon Nebula rear light. Don't leave bike lights out in the sun for hours on end!



Alynda Segarra of Hurray For The Riff Raff - if anyone is wondering what the text is on the paper they’re holding, it’s a poem, relevant to events in the Middle East.



I used to go to air shows as a kid with my ex-RAF engineer uncle, a lovely, very funny man who died a few years ago.
My mum and my auntie were looking through his photos out of the loft the other night and my mum sent me this. I’m guessing Farnborough or Finningly. I’ve absolutely no idea of the year. Late 70’s, early 80’s maybe? God only knows where he took the shot from.








@binners I don’t think that photo’s that old. It’s 558, so the last airworthy Vulcan, then look at the generator pack in the bottom left and the Luton transit bottom right. Both are really modern. It’s possibly within the last ten to fifteen years. Farnborough 2012 perhaps?

5 miles of family trail with my youngest today. He's getting less wobbly each time we go out. Need to find some brakes that actually fit his hands though, Giant didn't get the sizing right as they're huge!

With my back to the traffic, I stoped here to cross the road, when the car hit the lamppost.
all parties are perfectly fine.


That Suzuki 👆🏻is, in my opinion, a write-off! The frame is obviously bent inwards, as is the roof. The car must have rotated right around the light pole! I can’t make out the company name though. Glad it’s not me having to phone the boss… 🤣

Another day another cricket ground.
A very tiny bee, on my Pyrocanthus flowers, as I was trimming the hedge earlier. The only photo I got, but it does show the large amounts of pollen on its back legs.

















Cricket time again.
