Well hello there Gentledudes. I hope that you are all well. The weather continues pretty crappy down here and we think that man may have developed trench foot somewhere along the line. He has been going out and about a bit more than normal as he is doing the bidding of the sadist and using Broadstone rec to be his outdoor gym. Yes he can be seen hoofing around it and doing strange things with benches and steps every once in a while. The bonus for us is that this has widened the search area for post box toppers. Now the latest ones do not quite fit our strict criteria but comes close enough to be included as they are a pair of very fine bollard warmers. Now don’t laugh bollards need warming you know. This fine pair can be found outside the local Methodist church when they have their coffee mornings. We really like them and are going to nip inside and have an epic slab of cake at some point to admire them from the other side.
That man also went out for a cup of tea recently and came back with this very atmospheric shot of some new arrivals on the quayside.
A nice spot for a refreshing cuppa I think. Anyone care to join me and see if we can nick one of those boats and go out and about for a spin in it? Just let me know and we can arrange a plan.
I am pleased to say that man is going to be going out of county this weekend as he will be meeting Aunty Helen, Uncle Noel and my stalker for a memorial lunch for Uncle Dave. It is going to be a riotous affair I can tell you as that man plus alcohol plus chips plus custard can only lead to one thing-mayhem. Pity the poor eagle is all I can say as I am the one that has to pick up the pieces afterwards. There will be tears by bedtime I fear but I will do my best to cope. I am that kind of eagle you know. All heart and purveyor of common sense and kindness. Oh sorry even I don’t believe that. We hope that the event is very riotous indeed as that would be very much Uncle Dave’s style and it will be wonderful for all of them to get together. Bottoms up.
It is with a great deal of sadness that we have to pass on to a darker subject. Yes another outbreak of middle aged madness. That man was let loose online and bought some new leisure wear. Not sensible slacks and comfy shoes. Oh no. This is full on mid life order me a Ferrari and a dolly bird secretary crisis stuff. He is still toying with the 70s porn star tache concept and now has bought unsuitable clothing that is about 50 years too young for him. I say this with confidence as he turns 60 this year. You figure out the maths on that one. Yes he went online and ordered this shirt.
The worse part of all of this is that he actually went out in public wearing it the other night to dinner and people complimented him on it. I fear that it is going to be a very long summer indeed as he is already talking about buying the matching bucket hat! Beam me up I am ready to go as he is now talking about a steampunk inspired corset type waistcoat. It looks fabulous but even so I ask you really?????? Will no one rid me of this turbulent “owner”?
