Gus in da house

Gus came round to look after us both today. We did loads of cool things. Played with marbles, read Postman Pat and Noddy books, had a sleep, played in the garden and gave carrots to Janie.

Specially liked driving the Gator at Grandad and seeing him jump out of the way. Kept missing him so washed and waxed this off-roader instead.

Cancelled an existing personal appointment because I was asked to attend one in Ilford / London Borough of Redbridge tomorrow. Then, at the last minute, they cancelled. Seemed very unprofessional to me so told them to forget it. Too old to be messed around (grumpy).

Wine vs. Water

It has been scientifically proven that if we drink 1 litre of water each day, at the end of the year we would have absorbed more than 1 kilo of E coli bacteria found in faeces; in other words, we are consuming 1 kilo of poop!

However, we do not run that risk when drinking wine, rum, whiskey, vodka, beer or other liquors, because alcohol has to go through a distillation process of boiling, filtering and fermenting.

Ergo, it is better to drink wine and talk crap than to drink water and be full of it.

There is no need to thank me for this valuable information. I am doing this as a public service

Speaking of people who drink designer water and drive their Chelsea Tractors at speed in the middle of narrow country roads (picking young Jocelyn up from his prep school) our village is trying to get a 30mph limit. It already has a 40mph limit and the Parish Councillor and residents have lobbied for mobile control cameras. Thought you might like to see one in action (picture below).

I'd be more interested in seeing the car that produced this result (and owning one.)
