Our new arrivals

We have 2 young woodpeckers that spend a lot of time at our bird feeders eating (in particular) the fat balls. One got over enthusiastic today and flew into the patio window.

It was a bit stunned and spent a few minutes clinging to one of the outdoor chairs to recover. It flew off a few minutes later unharmed by it's experience.

Was nipping out to the post office when i saw a tribe of these buggers hanging off the yucca plant in my front yard. No idea what they were at the time so i took a picture.

I think its a Rosemary Beetle. I'll have to let the gardener know to get the crop duster ready.

Lovely!!, the last of the proper cars from them
I'd love a diesel estate

Almost as nice the Holdsworth (mk2) Cortina

Maybe, I still run a very well looked after 306 XND normally aspirated diesel, 25 years old and going strong.

Shaugh tunnel on the former GWR Plym Valley line

Not sure why so named, probably some local legend

The only thing I can see, on the 1900's OS mapping, is a Gas Works at New Sharlston Colliery, which would have been in view from the top
Maybe, there was a flame at the Gas Works?



It's the yellow road, heading east

Love going off road, no two rides are ever the same and today was no different, these four chaps caught my eye sitting on the posts of an electric fence.

Later spotted a huge plume of smoke between me and home, this was as near as my route took me and with the explosions was as near as I wanted to be.

Fire service was in attendance, nr Brigstock, Northants..
