😃 The Little Pleasures of Everyday Life

I’m informed that it is an arum, American Skunk Cabbage. Apparently an invasive species but introduced to many parks (where I saw it). A problem if it spreads into the wild.

They come over here, brightening up our parks… :rage::rage:

They clump together and don’t integrate - wrong 'uns

On the abortive jab drive (20C sunshine) we approached the small town of Skala.
I speak up
ā€œThis was the scene of my greatest Tour Guide Tour Guideness! It was here I told my customers was the home to a family of Eagles who range over the Forest nearby. At that moment, one literally flew alongside the Vanā€
Bullshit says Mrs P_F there are no Eagles this close to Krakow…

And there she was not100m away on a telegraph pole with a young one up above the field.

I took great pleasure from the Holy Fuck! Response from a shocked & impressed Mrs P_F

Wearing smug grin all day now

If we don’t get an update in the next 30 minutes, I suggest we send the emergency services down there :thinking:

Educating bar staff on how to pour a bottle of beer.

Am them saying ā€œI never knew thatā€

The ridge at the top of the bottle should rest at the edge of the top of the glass to give better control when pouring the bottle.

IE: No spillage.

Lady Slowlane and I were sat in the Orangery this afternoon partaking of our customary Tiffin.
ā€œDo you remember the first time we set foot in Slowlane Mansions, my dear,ā€ she enquired.
ā€œI do indeed,ā€ I replied, ā€œit was January 1977, I’ve just found a picture of you perusing the rather daunting sceneā€

Here’s the picture…my good lady in the foreground and Chambers looking on, thinking, "Oh shit I think I’m just about to be named ā€œProject Managerā€

She clearly married below herself :smile:

But Mrs Slowlane (assuming it was before their Ennoblement) was clearly fitter. (Can I say that :thinking:?)

Before their enoblement? 'slowlane was born with the proverbial silver spoon in his gob.

Lady 'slowlane improved her station upon matrimony…not that I am suggesting that as a reason for their nuptials…

Looks like a Fairport Convention album cover.
I didn’t realise Chambers was a hippie!

Looks more like some ghastly sixties art photoshoot. I expect Lichfield had a hand in it, and a moment later the bird had her kit off to reveal Pirelli logos on her skimpies.

Here’s what the main hallway and stairs looked like before the fire in the late 1960s…

Thank you all for your fanciful speculation. We are private people and like to keep our home just to ourselves and the odd wedding party of around 100-200 peoples. PM me for details. :lou_lol:
