I couldn't say what it was...it was massive...and such a shock to see a dog with standing room only in the small tray at the back.
We followed it around the roundabout after giving way to it and it took a few seconds to get my iPad out to take a pic....by then he was quite a way ahead.
By the time I snapped the pic, the gap was getting wider as hubby was slowing down to turn right.

Not sure where to put this, please move if need be. Taken from Facebook.

Only a week/14 days to endure. Problem is winter sun is still normally a cold day, unless you can find a sheltered glass house.

A dog with its ears back isn't happy.....

Not your usual entrepreneur, in fact she looks very much like the daughter of Fu Manchu who was on TalkingPics TV last night, and the whole idea looks like it came from a James Bond film.

What could possibly go wrong?

Well the local paper says tonight that the sale has fallen through Papworth due to the purchaser being unable to meet the conditions of the contract despite an extension being made. Quelle surprise.

In fairness though - the Ice rink which I was doubtful about, has finally opened.

I hadn't been watching that David. I remember at the time it all looked dodgy to me.

Love the word ‘dodgy’, my daughter and I both use it.

Dodgy and lurk are two of my favourite words Cathy!

Slutch, I love that word.

Ooo that’s a new one to me, what does it mean Gloria?
(are we on the wrong topic, sorry)

It is a good one Gloria and not common these days. Cathy it's muddy conditions.
Cathy. What I noted was news of the 'mega fires' near Sydney which are threatening a coal fired power station. The main danger is ignition of the outside coal stocks by drifting embers.
I see this morning that you had your hottest day ever on Tuesday and as that moves across Australia highs of 48C are possible.

For SA the hottest place looks like Coober Pedy with 47C this Friday and staying in the low 40’s all the way till next Friday. Opal mining country, not somewhere I would want to be at the best of times, and a lot of people live underground there.

I have been doing Ancestry again today, as it is a quiet pursuit.
Have discovered one of my son's 10x Great Grandfathers (Richard Holt)was an MP in Rochdale in c1680s -1700. ( am still trying to determine his political views!) and one of my son's 13x Great Grandfathers (Bonner)was Mayor of Portsmouth ( think it was 1612 but my brain has fogged over since turning the PC off). Wow...

The mild weather this morning.
Quiet progress in the shed.
Mainly progress at Burnley!

My eye was caught by seeing that Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison has apologised for going on holiday in Hawaii this week while the nation's bushfire crisis worsened. Bit of a faux pas! (LINK)

Yes, and 2 Firefighters have died.
He is on his way home.

Least he could do. I hope he pays the political price.

Private Eye on sources of recent donations to Tory Party. It bears seeking out and reading. It tells you exactly what their expectations are, all property developers and off shore hedge funds. (With the usual peerage hunters)
Not good news!

I'm not sure what he could have done if he'd been here Stanley. Nearly every state is on fire, he can't be every where at once. It's dreadful.

Our weather is nuts. SA has been scorching, and Victoria's weather has been ridiculous. This week 19C, 20C, 38C, 17C, 42C and today is a cool 18. I can't remember summer weather ever being so inconsistent.

Looks bad though Liz, popping of for R&R in Hawaii while the place burns.
I thought it must be cooler when I saw you were cooking...

...and especially when he keeps denying that climate change is happening while Aussie coal is stoking the power stations in Asia.

I see his deputy is trying to damp down the matter a bit by saying that more needs to be done on climate change. Talk about stating the bleeding obvious! These politicians seem to imagine that all the voters are morons, they forget that most are more intelligent, experienced and wise to the ways of the world than politicians are.

This is a weird but wonderful hobby!..

I like that . Where do I get one?
