Have been working at my daughter's. Went to Screwfix for some stuff and when I returned there was a fire engine just leaving the street.
Had to go out again to Plumbase and when I got back from there, this was the scene:

Kids (year 11) leaving school early set fire to the woods in the park, then again after the fire engine had put it out and gone.
My first intentional call to 999. The phone does call them at random though.

I was going to do a picture of the day yesterday but got distracted...........................it would probably have gone down like a lead balloon anyway.
For the first time since I moved in here in 1994 the close was completely devoid of parked cars so you would have had a photo of an empty area. :)

That would have been Jean Baudrillard-esque Gibbo, like his "famous" photograph of the empty chair subject of much philosophising.

Number 24 out of the hat in the "Today's County in the spotlight" thread https://www.frenchcarforum.co.uk/forum/ ... 04#p722404

Here's a bit of It we had never stopped at before...

Ayton just off the A1 roughly level with Eyemouth, and with its Castle, its Church, Its Tower, and the Eye Water running by.

and oddly the Hemelvaart Bier Cafe
