This Will Be Our Last Post For Some Time,

cue roars of laughter and cries of shame,

this afternoon we will be away, in my case to Thailand and for Diana the Philippines and Hong Kong as well, back to Saturday, the fox continually gets mugged by the crows, today 5 of them were in the scramble for the peanuts he enjoys, also a couple of magpies put in an occasional appearance, the colours in the photograph are a bit bright, I forgot to turn off the flash on the camera, Diana was at work during the day, I just bimbled around the flat, hoovering, taking out the rubbish, watering the plants, all of the usual things,

which took me up to my evening read and sherry, 

for tonight a butter chicken, which was one of the most spicy butter chicken dishes I have ever eaten, it was nice but a tad unexpected, 'Cheers!', as it was Saturday the usual weekly fly on the wall series were not showing, so a film it was, I decided on a old favorite, 

 Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World, in April 1805 during the Napoleonic Wars, the H.M.S. Surprise, a British frigate, is under the command of Captain Jack Aubrey. Aubrey and the Surprise's current orders are to track and capture or destroy a French privateer named Acheron, a lifelike depiction of life on board ship in those days, as it ended Diana arrived home, her last day at work for the next 5 weeks or so finished, we relaxed as we watched a Midsomer Murder, then for us we were off to bed.
