Or widened the existing pavement.I've just noticed how odd that paving is... Instead of starting from one side and continuing to the other, it looks like they started from both sides and worked their way in!

They had a big Christmas tree with lights lit, and with presents scattered around the base. Tinsel and baubles draped around the ceiling and walls... On November 10th!!!
He does, but he didn't. He just refused to move for a couple of minutes, then got back up and started walking again as if nothing had happened. Maybe he just wanted to catch his breath!
Maybe... I'm not sure where that picture was taken. I had a quick look on Street View in Todmorden and Hebden Bridge but didn't spot the location.
Just over 12 weeks to go now until my state pension starts...
Not that I have been counting down since 76 weeks to go!

Unless this was correct, and you never picked up.I thought so too, but couldn't see it.
Not that it really matters anyway...

We were stuck staring at him the whole time. He did nowt except glare at us, and then got up (with a clean pavement behind him!) and started trotting along without a care in the world.
He's in his own little world, and doesn't like to be rushed, or taken to where he doesn't want to go. It is almost impossible to get him to step out of the house if it is raining. I had to lift him into the car when they were leaving today because he didn't like the look of the heavy drizzle that had started after we got back!

That is probably what it was actually... Male dogs like to sniff around and mark their local territory, and he wasn't given enough time to do that to his satisfaction.

Ever had some selfish idiot park in front of your driveway and block your access?
This farmer did, but found his own solution to the problem...

Morning all. Can anyone explain why smoke detectors always wait until the early hours before complaining of a low battery?
The sodding thing might have had the decency to start chirping yesterday afternoon, when there could hardly have been much more juice.
Why wait until now?
And so to bed, perchance to lie awake until 7:30, when I have to get up anyway.

Currently waiting on a set of 3 being delivered to comply with the upcoming new regulations up here. Nice of the government to tell us we must have them but no thought for the poor buggers who can’t afford them. £170 for the set as they have to be wireless. I can afford it but there will be many who can’t. No word of any assistance for them so far. I wasn’t going to bother, but no doubt if you had a fire the insurance wouldn’t pay up.

I have risen!
Good morning folks,
A pleasant evening at the Tivoli last night watching John Shuttleworth. We’d only previously listed to his show on the radio. He was very good, comedy on a different tangent. The Tiv had been revamped during lockdown, and is now wonderfully Art Deco. Added bonus was the small bar has a couple of decent beers available 🍺
Have a peaceful day folks 🌞👍☕
EDIT:
While watching the show I did wonder if it might be @Accy cyclist of this parish moonlighting 😁

Morning all, another damp and grey start to the day here.
A soggy dog walk soon, and then a bimble on the bike, calling in at the barbers, the Barnet is getting a bit unruly and needs a trim up. Then onwards to the local shops for some essentials.
Enjoy your day everyone.

Good morning folks, a damp grey start to the day, floors to be mopped this morning, then a spot of lunch and down the club this afternoon.
