Good Morning Good Night and General Chat.

You'd be surprised how many people come to the shop and ask for for a Fish sandwich! 

 

And the look on their face when one of the girls says "do ya mean a fish buttie"

Now that takes me back. Saturdays, walking over to Villa Park from Aston Cross, past the (Mitchell and Butlers?) brewery with a fabulous smell of hops then, shortly after, past the HP factory which stank to high heaven.

It can be very confusing for some

 

 

Stirling services Aprx 1am long time ago, late night stop on a run to the Highlands.

 

Can we have 3 coffee's and 3 bacon butties, yes, pay at till and sit with coffee.

 

Kitchen person appears and asks if it's bacon sandwichs we are after, WTF,  and  would that be 2 slices of bread and 2 slices of bacon in each half.

 

Never before or since have I had to confirm the process of making bacon butties.

 

 

dont forget the brown sauce

Good Evening from my least favourite place

Good Morning 

[Tiggie]

I better go to bed early. Apart from doing the bathroom I've now got to replace a few floorboards too and to top it off my eldest has just messaged me absolutely terrified because she found a mouse under the sofa 

 

Guess who has to go there first thing in the morning to hunt for it? 

 

I might take my cat with me 

[dynax]

Good morning

[husoi]

Good morning.

Overcast, not too cold and no wind.

 

And I'm working from home instead of riding the bike 

[Slowlycatchymonkey]

A more promising forecast at last 🏍 🏍 🏍

Seems to be brightening up a bit now, I might take the CG out for a run later as it hasn't really been used since it's MOT back in November

Woke up this morning to see more flashing lights than at a 90’s rave. There’s not normally a vehicle in sight but two fire engines, four police cars, two ambulances and eventually frogmen are all clogging up the road. There was a Jag upside down in the ditch, the cab underwater and the doors shut so no way of knowing if someone was trapped inside. Fortunately there wasn’t but unfortunately for the four men who towed the thing down the lane and then spent yonks trying to push it in the ditch there is CCTV on those buildings

It’s the most entertaining 20 mins CCTV I’ve ever watched, hilarious, they get the car half in but it won’t go all the way so they have to pull it back out (not easy) and take a run up at it, took them ages. It was 16.45 so daylight with confused dog walkers going by! 
Anyway if your inclined towards insurance fraud then after dark and torch the thing is favoured route for that lane, idiots

Do you think that four came from the same household?

Definitely birds of a feather so maybe

[Tiggie]

Couldn't find the mouse or any likely places it came in from. I'm guessing it ran in a couple of days ago when she was having central heating fitted.

 

She says she wants to move back in to our house until its found. I've told her to go forth

[Steve_M]

Good evening. I had a nice little trip out to Screwfix on the bike today. Out by the shortest route, and return by the route that Google maps recommends (it doesn’t think that a road on the shortest route is passable). 
 

This view makes me stop and pause for a moment every time I see it.

They forecast Saharan sand being blown up from Africa and they weren't wrong.

Therein lies the problem with having a clean car. The slightest bit of Saharan desert shows up.

we had something similar on one of our dustbins 

[Mississippi Bullfrog]

I had a similar issue. Turned out the farmer had been a tad over enthusiastic with his shit spreader and it all came over the hedge. He owes me a pint when the pub reopens.

Good Evening
