New photos today

Lots of new photos today but no birds again.  Hopefully we shall be out birding on Friday, we're planning a trip to Rainham Marshes and then hopefully to the Ilse of Dogs to look for the Monk Parrakeets that are supposed to be around there.  I know they're not on the British list, but so what?  Beside which I want to go see the Thames Barrier too and that's in the area as well.

So to start of then ...

My two favourties folks, Jan and Kile.  This was taken in a pub in Banbury ... nice pint in there too ;-)))

The kidz in their bed resting for once ...

And again on my recliner chair inbetween my legs.

The Horseshoes pub on the Bull Ring in Dorktown.  Some time ago it was called the Three Horse Shoes but it closed down, was refurbed and reopned as the Lancet ...

... and clsoed down again.  Now a local micro bewery called Tunnel Brewery has bought it an done it up and reopened it.  Tunnel Brewery is based at the rear of the Lord Nelson pub in Ansley, about 4 miles outside of Dorktown and their beer is pretty spectacular.  They have 4 of their own on tap plus 5 other guset ales too, I can see me spending a lot of time and a lot of dosh in there ... ;-)))  Ok, you taste it but here's two of the four ales ...

... Late Out on the top, Trade Winds on the bottom ... very nice too.

Now, there I was driving down Manor Court Road when I saw this sports car and crabbed a quick shot.  It wasn't till I came to work on them this evening that I saw the sign above it.  Now I can't make up my mind if the car is bad that a Raleigh bike would be a better way of getting about, or if the bikes are so good that it's actually worth swopping the car for one ;-)))  What ever ... it amused me when I saw it.


So then, the Yanks have got him at last.  Mr Bin Linner is in the bag, sort of thing.  Love 'em of hate 'em the Ynaks don't mess about when they get on with a job.  Kick a dog enough times and it will turn and bit you back.  WOOFWOOFWOOF!

Tomorrow is polling day folks ... don't forget to go and vote, I shall, just as I always do.  Dunna matter what you vote for, just go out and do.
