😃 The Little Pleasures of Everyday Life

Every Sunday something called Toyah and Robert’s Sunday Lunch appears on Mrs SOGs face book page. It features Toyah Wilcox and her husband of many years Robert Fripp (King Crimson) doing batshit crazy things or playing cover versions of various classic tracks. It has become our weekly guilty pleasure. They also do a weekly agony aunt feature which is worth a watch if you want some proper British eccentricities.

Always on the lookout for picturesque but rundown locations to take my Classic car to I noticed a pile of stones stacked up on the side of the A303.

Not the best of backdrops I’ll admit but the entrance to the quarry was barred and entry looked unlikely. Fortunately I had a pair of sturdy bolt cutters with me and as there was nobody about I nipped off the padlock…

If you visit France or know anyone who is heading there for a break, get yourselves a pack of Pelforth Brune and another of Pelforth Blonde. My all time favourite beers from my 40 years of liver-battering, and the only ones I genuinely miss now.

In the world of “id’s”. This week has been the Leonids.
Now despite that being the name of an ex boss who screwed me over, it’s also the meteor shower this week. The Rhind Tutt comet left overs or something.
Anyway. With one due every 5 minutes or so, while having a smoke on my south facing balcony I’ve clocked 2 actual brighter than Mars Fireballs & 1 actual meteor streak.
That was cool.
No. Actually it was fvcking freezing.

Ferrero Rocher gift packs, they’re so yummy…

Going to amazon to watch the football and seeing a “lightning deal” for a 1l bottle of Kraken Black Spiced Rum for £22, sadly I could only buy 1 bottle…

£22?
That’s 2.5 litres of Vodka in real money.
Jeez

Mrs G’s logic:
Me: “Glass of wine?”
Mrs G: “I don’t think so. It’s only 5 o clock”
Me: “Cocktail?”
Mrs G: “Oh go on then.”

Only got one but she can be a little terror. Fully expecting her to bring me her tug-toy halfway through the first half of the game this afternoon.

However she does get me out and about…beautiful lighting this morning…if you look closely you’ll see her in the foreground.
