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.

Cricket time again.

Flexibility…

@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!

#the devil looks after his own:

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.

Also posted in the ride thread, but I quite like this….

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.

I keep taking photos but forget to post until a day (or so) later

@countzero

Im inclined to agree with you about the car being a write-off.

It seems like the boss was in the passenger seat. He seemed to know whereabouts in the boot to find the insurance documents.

The car bounced quite impressively off the lamppost.

Had that been a similarly sized tree…

Im still having to pinch myself at the sheer flukiness of it all😛😛😛

Is that a portal to some kind of watery hell?

😖

@Ambrose it’s at Leeds Castle, there’s a little grove unde their hedge maze.

Yesterday we went to a Mexican street food festival.

There’s half a dozen of those coconut shells, a feeder with six fatballs in, four wire mesh feeders full of suet pellets, and a feeder full of calci worms, all fresh in the evening. Pretty much everything gone by teatime the next day! 😳🤷🏼
