After all, the sun is shining today!

Yesterday we have heavy rain most of the day ... so much for having a day off to relax. So, in the end I spent a super lazy day ... read some stuff, and watched TV. I did end up watching a documentary on Deborah, the WWI tank and how a replica was made to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the battle of Cambrai. I saw the tank a couple of years ago, and I do wonder whether Granddad ever saw her, as well, as he was in the Cambrai region in 1917.

Now I am doing a few bits and pieces before heading out to work in early afternoon.  Hopefully it will go smoothly.  On Saturday during the shift, the car-park pay machines were down.  So I spent a lot of time clearing the cars.  I wonder what happened after I went home.  Sadly the company is not "user-friendly"!!  So let's hope that they got them sorted out this morning, so life is slightly easier.

I mustn't forget my A to Z photo. Week 9 – Feb 23 I is for INFO

As you know, I love my annual trips to London. So over the year I go through these books, to find out any IFO about undiscovered corners.

Right, let's get on.  But, before that -






22. It’s International Sword Swallower Day! Have you ever seen someone swallow a sword?
No

23. What was your favourite toy when you were growing up?
A toy I called “Lorry Milko”. It was a pull along truck with small milk bottles, that I used to deliver all around the garden. Then the fairies (umm, Mummy & Daddy) would collect the “empties” so they could all be delivered again!

24. Have you ever been skiing?
No … after all, I could trip over the pattern of a carpet. So, learning to ride a horse was scary enough!




See you tomorrow x

Um no...have no desire to see a sword swallowed either. My favorite toy was a little lamb with a green bow as a kid. Skiing? I went once. Not my thing.
