I had a Talbot Sunbeam in my younger days for a few years. Was ok. Sort of toffee brown colour.

They were a nice little car, most got snapped up for rallying. Now very rare.

I'm in a Team's meeting now, and I think someone has fallen asleep - we can hear loud snoring ! Camera off, but not mic !

Whenever I see a Heron it is always being harassed by Crows. I think I've only ever seen one on its own enjoying peaceful solo flight. Don't know why Crows have got it in for Herons.

Here, the crows harass hawks, and are in turn harassed by blackbirds. The great blue heron does not seem to get crows attention.

I guess l have nothing better to do right now except drink my coffee and give CC a little glimpse of my home village.
It is actually a bit rainy today to be honest but l still feel lucky to live here

Looks like a Dodge Omni or a Plymouth Horizon.

Since yesterday, I have had two inches of rain measured at my rain gauge.

They were based on a Peugeot 104. Mine was a later one with the more powerful engine and was basically a powered shopping trolley.

I had a Talbot Samba cabrio in 2007, long after they'd mostly disappeared. There's 9 of those left, not including mine which is now in France.

And they're now worth a decent amount

I'd love a Samba Cabrio

Mild, overcast and showery here chez Casa Reynard.

I've had another quiet day so far, just some gentle puttering around doing things that need doing. And transcribing some hard-to-read late night notes into something that actually makes sense.

It's almost lunchtime. And after, I plan on curling up with the snooker.

Still no rain here, but I did have a shower on the way home from work this evening thanks to a water cannon placed about 10' from the road by an inconsiderate farmer.

Eaten dry from the bowl/plate I hope. Sugar Puffs also make a good late night snack.

Some snagged straight from the box. But I did have a bowl of them with milk too.

Here too, was dull yesterday and stayed dull until evening.

I went for a nice ride about 7 on last night weather was ok

Protecting their young?

That would make a nice watercolour, you know. If only I wasn't so shite at painting landscapes...

Sounds like the old KA I had
