They weren't sure, possibly something he ate (doubtful, he's incredibly fussy) or maybe a virus of some sort. Glad to hear Chester is ok!

That sounds exactly what Chester had. Something odd going round maybe? Glad he's on the mend, sick doggos is never fun.

The aldi/lidl stuff is ace too, not seen any recently though

I've not seen the Lidl -30 concentrate for a couple of years around here, as it was my go to screenwash for winter.
ECP did do one from Normfest? that went down to -70c, but I think they've stopped stocking it.

The female lead Rey has survived, as well. I liked her performance -- she's young enough she can carry on for another 40 years, unlike some of the other cast.  I read an up close and personal blurb claiming Daisy Ridley was working as a server or bartender just five years ago in a  city in the U.K. & that she made minimum wage (= 8 USD) at that time. Those rags to riches pieces are made up a lot...and I wonder how much of it is true.  She doesn't do a lot of talking in her role....but to me she sounds more Australian or New Zealandish in her speech.  

Most actors spend their lives in poorly paid obscurity, 'resting' or doing things that aren't acting to pay the bills.

Just had an advert from a local pet shop pop on my arse book thing.

 

Quail as pets. Quail.

A fucking game bird.

 

First question : can these live outside.

 

 

Honestly.

 

I worked as an under keeper when I was younger, they were bred in their thousands to be blasted with shotguns love.

That was a brilliant concept. Not the sort of show you could have a second series of though.

Started emptying my garage of stuff I can't take to Spain and useless crap today.

My brother helped and has taken a load of stuff that he has a use for. Crap was loaded into the van ready to take to the tip.

As I was about to leave, a scrap truck ringing the bell came along. Big geezer in a vest took  a look, then unloaded 80% of what was in the van into his pick up. Lovely bloke (really) and he had a very pretty blonde girl driving the truck.

10 minutes later I get a call from the Estate Agent saying he has received a (good) offer on the house. Good enough for me to accept. Things are moving along.

Look out for my post in the for sale section for bits of car, motorbike and auto related stuff.

Parked at Daddyhole to walk the mutts... right next to, the first I've ever seen on the road, scruffy as fuck with scrapes to corner, a 2.2 DCI clattering away to itself.

 

A bloody Vel Satis!

In Torquay for Gods sake. Didn't think anyone in the 'bay had any taste...

Watching 101 Dalmatians with the kids (the 1996 version) and it's pretty mid 90s shite tastic! Ldv vacs, disco 1's, mk5 escorts, omegas, corsa B's, astra mk3's etc... 

Eva's told me to be quiet a few times so far

Download the 'torque' app. Great bit of software.
