We had a refreshing break in Northumberland last week. On our journey to Berwick-Upon-Tweed we stopped for a wonderful meal at the 'Anglers Arms' at Weldon Bridge, Longframlington.
Here is one of the old signs displayed at the Pub.
(For those in the know, do you think it would go down well at the KH?)
So I bought a few of these new cowls from Cyclops Bricks, and I have to say they're extremely disappointing. The cowls are sized so close to the minifig head size, once they're on they ain't moving. At least not with out damaging the paint job or minifig head. I gotta say for as much as he's charging I would've expected better quality, if anyone has had luck removing these safely please let me know. And if you bought some of these be very careful about how you put them on because that is mostly likely the place it will stay.
Une photo prise du bord de la route, un gros vol de grues est passé au dessus de ma voiture et je n'ai pu me garer qu'imparfaitement en mettant les warning .....L'APN étant toujours présent sur le siège passager, le choix du cadre est aléatoire !
Despite its dishelved look, this EC-121K still looks great. Saved by the Yankee Air Museum, at the request of the US Navy, when the Chanute museum closed in 2015, it will be fully restored and exhibited in the museum's new hanger at Willow Run. The aircraft, S/N 4435 B/N 141311, was delivered in 1956 to VW13 at Patuxent River where it served until 1965. It was then off over to Pt. Mugu, California, where it flew missile tracking flights until its retirement in 1979. In 1983 it was flown into Chanute Air Force Base in Rantoul, Illinois and was displayed at the museum until its closure.
Instead of High Surf warning, it should be Men Wearing Banana Hammock. Which is the first thing we saw as we walked in. This was taken at Hanalei Bay. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hanalei_Bay I will be slowly coming back on line next week. Until then, peace. B
Warning
Jenny Joseph
When I am an old woman I shall wear purple
With a red hat which doesn’t go, and doesn’t suit me.
And I shall spend my pension on brandy and summer gloves
And satin sandals, and say we’ve no money for butter.
I shall sit down on the pavement when I’m tired
And gobble up samples in shops and press alarm bells
And run my stick along the public railings
And make up for the sobriety of my youth.
I shall go out in my slippers in the rain
And pick flowers in other people’s gardens
And learn to spit.
You can wear terrible shirts and grow more fat
And eat three pounds of sausages at a go
Or only bread and pickle for a week
And hoard pens and pencils and beermats and things in boxes.
But now we must have clothes that keep us dry
And pay our rent and not swear in the street
And set a good example for the children.
We must have friends to dinner and read the papers.
But maybe I ought to practise a little now?
So people who know me are not too shocked and surprised
When suddenly I am old, and start to wear purple.

Here is an unseasonable as well as unreasonable warning about poisonous snakes near our home. Temperatures last night hit minus 15C so there's no chance of seeing any snakes poisonous or not these days. I do appreciate the authorities' attempt to trivialize the problem with a friendly green snake with a cigar in his mouth! I spend almost every day hiking in the woods surrounding our area and have only seen one snake in ten years! So how pressing could the problem be?
Eternal goodness waits for you
or eternal sadness
be then fair or crumble

River may be subject to rapid fluctuations!
There really was a sign posted right near me that said this! Judging from the poor canoe, those fluctuations must've caused some havoc!

A Cooper's hawk spotted a pair of shorebirds on the beach and launched itself after them.
He captured one and held on with a death grip.
Ultimately it flew off with his meal.
Rondeau Bay.
Accipiter cooperii
A Cooper's Hawk captures a bird with its feet and kills it by repeated squeezing. Falcons tend to kill their prey by biting it, but Cooper’s Hawks hold their catch away from the body until it dies. They’ve even been known to drown their prey, holding a bird underwater until it stopped moving.

A huge inflatable Octopus on the Council House in Old Market Square, Nottingham. Apparently its linked with Halloween. Yeah, I'm scratching my head to see the link too!
