Been a nice day on the Humber today,plenty of sunshine but the rain has just started and is forecast until bedtime. As I am due to go out in an hour to my grumpy old mens club the rain forecast is on time! Senility is creeping in, when I went into the bathroom this morning and started to shave it be...

Not sure if I've mentioned this before. When I was at nautical school studying for my Masters ticket their was a case in the local paper about a chap being sentenced for raping a girl in a Ford Popular. The bloke said it was with consent and the girl said she was taken by force. The chaps in class o...

Seems like you have had a few nice days of relaxation Reddo.. Mrs 1DC and I dined out with friends at one of Cleethorpes's decent restaurants last night, Figs is the name if anyone ever gets to the end of the line!! Turned cooler on the Humber, down to 10C with a cool wind. That figures because Mada...

Mrs 1DC's fell about the 20th., I didn't bother..

Good Wishes from the Humber Wodders apart from the us lot the lady who matters is also paying you plenty of attention. The Grand National horse race will be run in a few minutes, and our local TV news man wanted to know who was for it and who was against on the local news last night, in his piece he...

Been a warm day on the Humber, about 19C. Yesterday morning Mrs 1DC said she wanted to buy a lottery ticket and asked me how to do it, so on our way out I stopped at the post office in the village and told her to go in and buy one. Today she asked me how to check it, I found the numbers for her and ...

Butterflies like our bottlebrush.Went all the way to Beverley to get a new battery In my watch, a foreign voyage over the Humber bridge, over an hour. Went to the place it was purchased from. I owed Mrs 1DC a bracelet for Christmas, which she hadn't found yet! She saw a ruby and diamond ring that sh...

Vauxhall Velox,bench seat. The bench seat was a plus!! Seemed a big car when I had it, saw one last year and it looked very small..

Been some considerable time since we had an eclipse on the Humber although we have had total eclipses before, I will be dead by the time the next one comes along! The thing that sticks in my memory about total eclipses is the silence rather than the darkness! Interesting,last nights spring tide was ...

We have had solar panels for six or seven years but have never had the problem of bird trouble. Not yet !! Been a nice day on the Humber 15C, was made to go for a walk and the tide was a long long way out must be spring tides.Did get a very nice bacon sandwich though, made nicer by the fact that I f...

Full gale on the Humber,presently 12C and 16 predicted but blue skies although we have had showers. We always seem to have showers! Found Hydro's missive interesting, nice that most of the people on here seem to know what they are talking about. Made a chicken curry last night now in the fridge fest...

Does it say anything about having to read a watch?

Overcast on the Humber and a surprising 18C, Grandson came to visit so booked us in the fish and chip restaurant for lunch. Couldn't get parked for damn trippers so had to use a car park where I had to down load an App and then mess with my I phone to pay for it, think I did it ok. Sign of the futur...

A few years ago they stored these temporarily on our local disused WWII airfield and they were always delivered in the horizontal. As in the photograph five in the BBC article.

A sunny day on the Humber with 13C and no rain although a fair downpour is due overnight.Found the clock I forgot to change over the weekend, there it was in plain sight through the kitchen window on the outside wall. 18 inches diameter who could miss it..Such a lovely day was advised I was going fo...

I have changed all of the clocks except for the one that I have forgotten, I don't know which one it is but sometime during the next week or so it will reveal itself, it happens every time we change the clocks and it is a different one very time!!!

Thank you for all the Happies, much appreciated..

When I started writing it was to say I don't have any feeling in my toes now, but I forgot, Oh well!!

Nice and blue on the Humber with 14C,rain isn't forecast until Wednesday,if that comes to pass it will be the longest dry break this year probably since about October. Fortunately we don't flood but one village south of here has been cut off for six months, the river bank that breached is due to hav...
