My daughter is on a road-trip 🚌 from Adelaide to the WA border. The above pic is of silo-art from Fowlers Bay, which is where they reached today, after leaving Adelaide on Sunday. It’s the 1/2 way mark.
Here’s a couple more, of many across Australia.
They all tell a story about the area they are in.

Stunning aren’t they. ☀️😊

Here's something I know nothing about, Not unusual I hear you say. :laugh5:

Shortly, possibly later this year, the EU will require biometric data as well as a passport. This will be in the form of a digital photo plus a scan of fingerprints at a suggested price of around £19. Another Brexit benefit? Some of you may be in a position to explain what its all about.

I know bugger all about it Ken but I'll lay a shade of odds that it will cost more than £19.....
Well worth paying for sovereignty we are told.....

Not the best seats, for me anyway but fortunately there was no one sat in front of me so I could put my feet on the seat in front. A very good show though, highly recommended.

Back from Billy Bob's and a good time was had by all. Finlay had a good hour and a half in the barns before we had our tea. I finally settled on the Chilli Burger which was embellished with Monterey Jack cheese, Jalapeños and a spoonful of beef chilli on top, sides of home made French Fries. Finlay had the junior cheese burger with fries and Sally had Spicy Bean Chilli with Natcho's. All the food was excellent and we had seats in the school bus. :smile:

My mate Bob Clark an ex-pat American who once worked at Menwith Hill managed to leave the NSA and settled here starting a chain of American diners. I wonder if there's any connection with Billy Bob's at Embsay....

Had a walk around Cliffe Castle this afternoon, spot o' lunch at Steeton Hall on the way there. There's been a bit of refurb work since I was last there. Certainly worth a look.

We got back last Wednesday from 11 days in Sirmione on Lake Garda in Italy, it has been boiling, weather never known before at that time of year.

Went for a walk after work on Wednesday, thought it was about time to dust off the camera and charge the batteries. The sky was interesting, this is over the lower reservoir, from the churchyard, towards Pendle Hill (you can just see it in the bottom of the pic) around 8pm.

Took a short excursion to Barlick Town Square last night to give the camera a run out. Middle offspring was on with the Overload boys at Bands on the Square. They went down well with the crowd and the camera behaved itself.
