You can get recumbent tricycles you know.
And if you've stabilisers fitted, wouldn't that make it a quadricycle?

I saw one once which had a sail fitted. I don't know how he coped with overhanging trees?

Don't know which air show(s) they were returning to base from, but at different points today I have been overflown by this Avro Anson and this Douglas DC-3C. While out on the bike I also saw a weasel and a green woodpecker which was quite nice. An enjoyable 30something miles despite the sudden change of direction and increase in the strength of the wind while I was out.

Very little has been done this evening other than to put my feet up, relax and price up lawn mowers just in case.

I also saw a Green Woodpecker whilst I was out on my ride on Saturday. I haven't seen one for years.

First cuppa went down well

Gwylan's dilemma. Do I face up to coping with Wimbledon and WC football?
Or, pack the bike and wander off.

An alternative is buy another TV. That's cheaper than the first option, but what's on TV worth watching?

I managed to eat my doughnut without losing any jam this time.

Some nice news this morning: I've won a prize of some bags and a rental voucher for campervan hire, which will help with planning the next trip.

[Once it all arrives I'll edit to include the company.]

I'm not sure about the Avro Anson but your DC-3 is actually Douglas C-47 Skytrain "Night Fright" (serial number 42-100521)~This one~

Here's a photo of my Brommie at Sywell Aerodrome last weekend 🙂

I'm no plane expert, I was just going by the photo link that was given by Flightradar24 when I looked up what had flown over.

Good morning, here it is overcast with rain forecast for most of the day.

Good morning from a grey cloud covered corner of Suffolk. Coffee has been had.

I've got two different click & collect orders to pick up today from places about 10 miles apart - one in Felixstowe and one in Martlesham. Once I've done the later pick up, I'll know how much space there will be left in my back pack and will fill that up with biscuits and packs of instant noodles from Tesco & Aldi.

Wasn't the DC3 the civilian version?
