      Let's hope they don't realise and continue to use the same template for many years to come
      This launched me on a search for a reference to "Nidian" which is the Neath Boys' Grammar Skool magazine.

      Looks like there isn't one.

      Apart, of course, from this one, which will appear shortly, once the spider has done its thing.

        Also had a chap with an ancient chap (even more of an than I) who was potching about with the passenger seat of his Reliant Robin.

        Asked him if he'd owned a BMW Isetta back in the day since it was always parked where his Reliant resides.

        However apparently not.

        Isetta - Wikipedia

        Though communication was difficult since he was rather deaf.
        He probably thought you were asking him about French letters!

          The rain finally moved on while I was busy, so now it's just grey and a bit breezy. Might shut the window as it's now down to 20°C in here, against 19° out there

            steady rain all day so far here.
            23C indoors, so quite nice after last week's 39.

              The rain seems to have eased up for now and it seems quite bright compared to earlier.

              I am toying with putting the duvet back inside the duvet cover as I've gotten a bit chilly these past couple of nights, usually around 3am.

                  I dug out the summer duvet once the place started to cool down to a reasonable temperature

                    Tea: liver and bacon with onion "gravy" (did something wrong there, it and the liver were pretty meh), orange segments and custard, 0.91 pints of good Glengettie tea.

                    Entertainment: The conclusion of "Ice Station Zeeeeeebra (1968)" which was amusing enough.

                    I was quite correct it had "Exit Music" a.k.a. Extro.

                    Now watching War Factories, this week all about VW.

                    It's raining again.

                    Now watching In search of Nazi Secrets on Blaze, the poor man's Nazi History channel.

                    23.4 in here & getting warmer.

                    Dr PimplePopper is doing her thing at 22:00 on Really.
