    There was the usual " Do your own Cleaning" chappie there today. He's the one with a bucket of sudsy water, a blue plastic pipe with a brush on the end. I did tell him that, when he finished playing there, a fair few of us were available on car park E 3 but I didn't understand his reply ( Think it might have been a Brummy dialect  undecided )

    Had a walk round the accessory stalls 'til lunch on Club stand 12:15 - 1:00 then went on the " Buying  Circuit " - new fire extiguisher, few other bits n bobs and  some Snowdonia Cheese .  I'm not sure if anybody else has heard of that  laughing. All in all not a bad day and not a bad show either, altho I did not see anybody I knew not even on Club stand.

    Could have done with a Chauffeur for the drive there and back --  then I might have managed a decent foto or three of the area round Stafford by the Sea --  never seen it flooded so badly. Feel really sorry for those suffering and with the knowledge there is no end in sight

    Just browsing on here  this morning and I came across a thread about KAYAKS.

    That started me thinking about how the NEC Holiday Show has changed - there used to be water-based things from Canal  narrow boats  up to the sort of clever hard work thingies CY might have been interested in --  they might have had a few takers this week I think frown

    If you see animals moving around in pairs, then you need to worry.

    undecided, hmm --  Saw loads of pairs of animals moving round the  NEC yesterday --  but I'm not sure why I should be worried. So I'll head for lunch & try to workout your conundrum CY .

    There are times when living at the top of a hill has advantages. I’ll send the doves out soon.

    But you are at the bottom of the country, according to my latest atlas undecided - but whatever wink.
