Patriotic Micra

I pass this car every day, i’ve never particluarly been a fan of the new shape Nissan Micra but think the colour scheme would look good on some cars. If only I had a spare car that needed a respray… oh wait a minute, maybe I do!

Plans for the weekend

Colleague: “Up to anything good this weekend?”

Me: “Not really, foregoing two drinking sessions so I can go to the house in Nottingham and finish off replacing the roof on the garage that I started last weekend.”

Colleague: “Ah.”

Me: “You really know when you are getting old when you choose DIY over a night of drunkeness…”

Colleague: “Yes…”

Me: “Are you up to anything more exciting than me this weekend?”

Colleague: “Not really, i’m starting to paint the bathroom tonight.”

Me: “Hmmm…. nice.”

Mmmm Bacon…

It seems it wasn’t just me who had to get a photo of “Bacon Buoy”!. There is also a photo online of the new Bacon Buoy which sits above Bacon Ledge outside the harbour on St. Mary’s, Scilly.

A new low

I’ve found a Wetherspoon pub that sells a Beer & Burger meal for £3.99, significantly cheaper than the previous £4.69 record in Nottingham.

The Calverts Court in Stockport is today also featuring a guest appearance by Mr Vomit on the carpet. In the half hour i’ve been here, the manageress has only got round to strategically placing a chair over it presumably to stop people standing in it but nothing else.

I assume it may have been giro day for the local unemployed based on the condition of some of the customers.

The food price is good, however I tend to prefer frequenting Wetherspoon pubs that haven’t been trashed by teatime.

River Medina, IOW

I chose to walk between Cowes and Newport along the old railway line which is now a cycleway. It follows the River Medina, and makes for some good views.
