You may remember how pleased I was to get shot of the Honda a couple of weeks ago and clear up the unit as in viewtopic.php?p=662503#p662503
Well today, while county photo hunting, I came across a couple of photos of the unit just after I moved in, bit of an eye opener!!:

Some rather fine yew trees in a village churchyard

Castlethorpe churchyard

I've been out church spotting today... Although I hold no religious beliefs I love churches and really enjoy looking around them and photographing them

And another fine yew tree The one nearest the church is full of gorgeous red berries...

Came across this today while rummaging. Visiting friends in Hoogvliet near Rotterdam - some time back!

Excellent stuff Peter and Jim,

I find you cant get enough Topiary Pigs particularly if they are fashioned out of Yew, and hidden away, and not very well known except to the entire audience of the French Car Forum...

Topiary pig hiding somewhere in Northumberland

Its down this road here

Its down this road

And Pylon Spotters with a link to the Electricity Transmission power line database and an ordinance survey map should be able to locate our little pig from the pylon and transmission line ID

Yes if you cant make it out the code is
XB 214

Rediscovered the magic lantern today, and selected 1972 from the boxes of slides. Well it had a holiday to Scotland in it. Just how good is the West Coast of Scotland...Its amazing....and an everyday classic on most slides in the form of very own landcrab. Top family car!

wish I had a grey landcrab....

Meanwhile later in the year at Blackpool, Shell were claiming good milage, and Haig were imploring you not to be vague

You can be sure of...

Ask for Haig

You started going up there before we did! I think '77 was our first year. I like the BMC 1800, at least I take it thats what it is.

Yesterday I was (as usual on Tuesdays) helping out my Mum (currently in Newbury) when I heard a helicopter overhead.

The only picture I have taken today was to show my friends in Elstree how our Hot Lips plant is still flowering, but any picture is better than no picture so here it is:

Still flowering in November
