This is one I found in a box, that I hadn't seen before. My great uncle Norman. He was a soldier in WW2 and died of TB*. I have very sketchy memories of him but have a few of his belongings still. Passed away in the 1960s.

* Sanitorium or hospital bed in the background?

Most of the important B&W pics from my family are still to be looked at. We are busy emptying my mother's bungalow atm and my sister is being a total arse. We got the scanner to make sure we can make copies asap, in case she walzes off with them.

We have a new, portable flatbed scanner and we're digitalising old family pictures.
Like this one, from the mid 60s! What a cutie!!

It is better to have loved and lost the box than to have never punctured its flaps with your fangs, ... or something.

Was it to your cats?
S'OK, they won't tell.

It's not just the effluent, fuel and footfall impact of these monsters, it's the nitrogen and sulphide oxides output whilst in port. The stats on cruise ships are truly eyebrow raising.

Time for a special programme on media bias yet?

Perhaps there's a hugh level editorial meeting to decide whether they should they use the word faeces or slurry, or just say "cosplaying as a fighter pilot, dropping tonnes of steaming sh*t on American citizens".

NEVER SAY "QUIT" It's easier just to give up quietly when no one's looking.
