I'm going on to Google to improve my gourdology.

Gourd help you!

The Robins around here are so vocal that the Boat Tailed Grackles are imitating them.

I cycled through Lambhill cemetery today.

I'm going through again tomorrow.
The paths are getting tidied up by the community service chain gang most days.

Reminds me of my school, when the grass was cut, a bunch of fellows in a trailer would show up from the county jail, with with push mowers and a deputy on horseback .

Last night I arranged to meet a mate of mine for a bevvy this evening.

This afternoon, I was a bit bored, so I popped out for a pint at lunchtime. Which became two.

Later, I was waiting for the bus. It was going to be a long wait. I was nippy. Another pint.

We met up. Smashing evening. Six pints.

I walked towards the bus stop up the hill (Kirkdale in Sydenham for those who know it). The bus went past me. I thought, "oh, crap, now I have to wait another 20 mins".

It stopped about 120m up the hill. I thought, 'why not"? So, despite the kecks I had on nipping into me, I sped off up the hill.

I caught it. I bloody well caught it. About 14 seconds worth of sprinting, uphill. Not bad for a 51 year old.

I'll feel it in the morning though. A proper nine pint hangover, with the addition of knackered hamstrings.

My knowledge of gourds is limited to pictures of PNG locals wearing them on their genitals. I think they are also used to carry water. I have a hill to climb.

Isn't that one of those things Getafix put his magic potions in for Asterix?

Yes, but Obelix wasn’t allowed any magic potion as he fell into the cauldron as a baby and it had a permanent effect on him.

I love the Asterix books! Both my son and daughter read them too!

Reality hit this morning as I was de-icing the windscreen

Morning, I'm just waiting to set off to Swindon . I've made a small packed lunch, a couple of cheese and solid cream sandwiches and a hot cross buns just in case we are there for a while.

Have you got a force field to utilise when negotiating the multi magic roundabouts in Swindon?

Sorry about that, by the way, in bird news, an American Robin.

Actually closely related to, and the size of, a thrush. Just thought I'd share.
