Ready, steady, go! Or don't go 😎

I will take that as a yes

I'm surprised nobody has ever built a drive through grocery shop considering how lazy some people are.

Australia has / had drive thru bottle shops (off licences)

Warm, sunny and breezy here chez Casa Reynard.

Had another rough night (yes, I'm looking at you, hot flushes) and feel rather meh as a result. At least the heffalumps have cleared off for another month though. That aside, I've had a good morning watching coverage from Brum and doing a nice bit of writing.

In other news, I've got some tomatoes that are almost ripe. Really looking forward to sampling those - just sliced with a bit of salt and pepper.

Am not really in the mood, but I do have to run some errands this afternoon. I'm running low on a few groceries and the parental unit needs her prescription. Ordinarily I'd be doing a full grocery shop and yellow sticker lurk this weekend, but there's still way too much in the fridge, so just a top-up shop it is.

It is almost time for luncheon.

I splashed out on a Tilley, which I thought expensive, but I've been wearing it rather a lot. Worth the money.

My grandad Arthur always used to say "I'm too poor to buy cheap stuff" - and I totally get that.

I've got an Arsenal baseball cap.

Ramsgate gulls like an ice cream, too... 🐦

I've just googled Tilley Hat. Its a brand of bucket hat if anyone was wondering

Car almost packed, ready to finish work at 4 and escape to Welsh Wales.

I have a garden peanut feeder for the birds.
For the last two nights something has pulled it off the branch it hangs on, opened it on the ground, and eaten the nuts.

I suspect a badger.

Culprit identified

Two slices of wholemeal toast for luncheon, one with salami and one with cream cheese and tomato chutney, plus a flat peach, half a lovely ripe mango, some blueberries and two

I had half a lovely ripe mango yesterday. I'll be reuniting the remaining with its other half very soon.

Or should that be "very spoon"

I leave them in the fruit bowl till they're *really* soft and a bit wrinkly. I avoid pre-cut mango like the plague.

Anyways, time I went erranding.

That cone gave me a flashback to " Close Encounters of the Third Kind " 🤔

Sitting on the ferry now ready for the return trip. Having great fun watching people in huge Suvs trying to manoeuvre them into place on the deck and clearly struggling despite directions from the ferry staff.

If you can't drive, why buy a Tonka Toy

If Laurel and Hardy were alive, I'm sure they could work this scene into a short comedy film!
