At this time of the year as today, our acers start to turn that "fiery red" colour, but often a slight frost puts paid to it, they don't get any...
I did all I wanted to do as the rain held off. The hardest job was wiring up around the azaleas to stop the cats getting in so they can pounce on...
What impressed me about this photo was that these girls always looked like this at the start of their shift in the late eighties and nineties....
I think Christmas present choices kids make can indicate chosen career paths. Our daughter was into dolls. She always wanted one for Christmas...

I was attempting to drive out of my golf club car park on Friday afternoon when I found I had no clutch. Now Honda's are considered "bulletproof,...
