I thought that was Hunter S Thompson there. Man loved a hat.

Built the actual model two weeks ago. Been sat looking at it out the corner of my eye since. Hopefully try to get tit done on time.
On the other hand, I've managed to build and paint a load of other things in the meantime 😁

My current steed, a Triumph Speedmaster 865. Basically a Triumph Bonneville in different factory trim to make it into a mini chopper. A radical departure from my usual tall "adventure" style bikes of recent years, but I thoroughly enjoy the different riding style.

When a friend of mine died his widow gave me a box of books. Inside one I came across a pack of photos.
These are obviously of some sort of amateur railway enthusiasts. Other than that, I have no idea where or when they were taken, but I thought that I’d share them anyway.

Fingers crossed.

Appears that my brother picked the wrong weekend to go to Puerto Vallerta, Mexico for a relaxing break with his gf. He's stuck in his hotel and they've closed the airport so he can't just leave.

I was wracking my brain trying to work out what the lad at the back left reminded me of, and then it hit me. Remember the Australian breakdancer from the Olympics? 😁

In case anyone might be interested.
I did a quick search and it seems legitimate, but do your own research before proceeding.

Just saw the 70s show "I Claudius" described as being like The Sopranos/Game of Thrones. That's not so far from the truth. A crime family in togas 😆

Seeing the sign for the cask ales reminds me of the time I was in London and the barman recommended that I try the Caledonian 80/- because it was an excellent ale. He seemed rather deflated when I said that I knew it was, and that I lived lin Edinburgh where it was brewed.

Get “born again” which, apparently, wipes out all the shit you used to get up to and you start over with a clean slate. You can then criticise those doing what you used to do and as a nice bonus join the r/w grift machine.
Hallelujah and pass the ammunition.

I’m waiting on the gigantic robot squirrel to distract us all. It’s going to have to be a doozy.
