Three hours before I realised the cameras missing-----never did miss the phone and wallet until I found them.
Getting close to 90 already ----went to the car boot this morning just gone seven----forecast is for thunderstorms Saturday so the world and his granny decides to get there before me--result--total chaos. Foraged for an hour but never found the lamp or the lost Rembrandt -----did find a rake of sealed bearings that I blagged for a fiver, but very little else. Nap time, will show you some of Jilly's work later.

These are just a couple of Jilly's works-----she's the real artist-----I just pretend.

Told you her indoors was good ------This time I didn't lie.
These are all upstairs, on the landing and in the bedroom.
she offered one as first prize for the golf tourney, told her the cost of posting to the US was horrendous, so forget it!!!
What a night! Thunder and lightning in large portions, hot and humid, one or two really heavy showers, not a lot of sleep.
Went to bed worried about the fall out from the Malaysian aircraft brought down over the Ukraine.10Brits and over 20 US citizens. Ruskies already have the black box, so that can be altered to suit. Rebels blame the Soviet and they say it was viccy-Verdi , nobody wants to take the blame for this one. Worlds leading Aids scientists on board too-----all going to a conference in Australia.
There will be a cover up of gigantic proportions, everyone pussyfooting, Putin the first to shout out,
attack being the best form of defence---President Obama being "Diplomatique" Cameron yet to call it. Lot of snot and gore flying today!!!
Me myself cleaned and treated the pool----it's at 84 degrees, entirely due to the heat wave---buffed off and did it from in the pool----that don't often happen! Woke up this morning with aches and pains and protesting muscles, have to get me a pool boy in future. Trouble is ---the buggers don't work for less than £10 an hour----and I never yet met one that could get a wriggle on, it's a lazy thing, cleaning a pool!
The hoards arrive this weekend---in large portions----yes schools out and the first wave are staying over with us for a week -----next door there's a lamb roast on Saturday, then Sunday it's my turn to Barbee, let's just see what transpires. Talk lunchtime.

Will look at the news later and see if we have A SITUATION, meanwhile here's another couple of Jilly's paintings------she can do anything ----animals----people----countryside or town, all out of her head..
Just had a quick look at the news.
Ruskies got their missile launcher back home safely, but not before the Ukes filmed them doing it, interesting to see how soon they produce the black box( if they ever do, too many questions to answer there.).
All the top dogs are bristling and growling but not one of them dare to bark yet.
There are no JFK's in the world any more so Putin can crap where he wants!!!
Had my nap-----time to rhumba !!!
OK so Obama barked from behind the fence----what will he do----threaten sanctions which mean in reality bugger all----Cameron is hanging on to Obama's shirt tails and muttering unfair but has no balls, Merkel is just monitoring the situation and doing nothing.
Putin is laying low and distancing himself from the mercineries the soviets funded to overrun Ukraine and did the deed-on the Malaysian aircraft.
Now the black box and the missile launcher and the mercineries are back in the Soviet Union, Putin is holding all the aces, question is, what will we do about it,?
Answer----shout and scream----but no action !,,,!
JW...I'm sat here suppin' my tea in slow measured style reading your reports from the front--It occurred to me you might be better off roofing over that pool and creating an air raid shelter what does the deep end measure??.
You are right about JFK though...
Sh-t hasn't hit the fan yet Ron, but it's going to, just amazes me how long it takes to feel the bullet once it's hit you, shock, disbelief, not possible, horror, omg, long time after comes what the hell we going to do now ?
Most of you will read this and think , silly old bugger, what's he on about, well I hope I'm wrong but I know I'm not, Putin's testing the water to see how far he dare go and who it is who steps up to the plate,? Aren't we all???
Worlds biggest chess game is about to begin, most civilised countries are now involved.
80 children dead.
10 British
24 U S. citizens.
untold number of Dutch.
Ukraine blames Russia---soviets blame Ukraine----only thing is, Ukraine does not have ground to air missiles, guess who does.
All over the world Foreign Diplomats have been put on high alert, now the chess game begins.
Time for me to get off the pot, I'm not qualified to comment on this further, so thanks for your attention, but I will not be posting any more views on this subject.
Let me tell you about today .
got really stuck into creating stuff and nonsense, am well on the way with four "HEYLANGO'S as you all know by now, these are Swedish trolls, fondly remembered by hard drinking Swedish folk when they hit the "AQUAVITE .
Have a very good friend MR Runo Cronström, retired Swedish naval surgeon and art affecianado , collector of HEYLANGO'S -----He already has a few of my attempts skulking around his place in Ronneby and more in his house in Bouzigues .
Was too hot to work for long this afternoon, so I smoked in the pool ( bloody stupid spellcheck, that should read SOAKED )-----got friggin sunburned didn't i------what a Pratt ----82 and still posing, didn't notice it 'till I got in the shower------did step a bit lively when the warm water hit.
Doing the Saturday car boot if it's not too wet and windy------really bad forecast for tonight and tomorrow-----if it's that bad I'll just roll over and have an extra hour in bed.
See Hamilton and Rosberg head the Friday practice board at Hockenhiem, but Red Bull have finally made progress-----maybe it won't be a two horse race after all.
beddy byes, MYGGWY . J
Man did that ever chuck it down at the car boot!!!
Got there by seven but it was already raining cats and dogs and most folk didn't even set out the stall.
Found a 'lectric radiator for the conservatoire -----who the hell buys an electric oil filled rad. in July? I did ---for £3, not such a pratt after all.
Will watch qualifying, see who does the biz today-----pole is not ALL important at hockenhiem---- there are plenty of passing opportunities.
The hoardes will overrun us by noon-----could be the last report before bedtime, have a nice day!!!!!!!
Jack, check that the thermostat! make sure #1 it works #2 you set it to a pleasing number-- The reason those bangers go cheap is not because of the colour but because if they are not happy the hottest place in your tent will be the meter cupboard.......I know I was that soldier..Phill ( Electrician 1964-On)
