I think he comes into the estate from the pine woods not far from here, there's always free scoff put out, him, the Hedgies & birds don't do badly out of me. :)

That looks like a decent pint in the front of the Family get together picture Dave, it even has the remnants of a "head" on it. Nice Photo's.

It was Draught Bass Tads, best option they had on offer, I even had to get behind the bar to get their system working or it was Becks (produced for the UK market, I don't even drink it here! :rolleyes:). That said though, they did give me a free pint for my efforts. :D

Incidentally the folk around the table from L to R are Auntie Rose (my Dads Sister), Auntie Joan & Uncle Derek (My Godfather) & my Dad.

Marge you could not be more right, many years ago a farmer friend of mine asked if I could help him find some cattle of that he had lost on land on top of the coppice in snow drifts, we did find them and they were not lost they had merely laid down behind drystone walls and were covered by the drifts, the reason I am mentioning this is because it was the last week in MAY. When I mention it to some of todays younger generation, I.E. under forty or so, they tend to think that I am having a giraffe.

Re: Today in pictures
 

Nope, I too can remember having snow in late May…in fact I think I remember it snowing in June.
Ok it did not last long, but it was enough to cover the grass, but not enough to sledge on.
Back then, I enjoyed snow.
Now I hate the ruddy stuff.

Re: Today in pictures
 

Oh dear and here's me thinking that ruddy is a reddish colour, I have never seen ruddy/reddish snow.:D

Re: Today in pictures
 

Ruddy can be used as a mild expletive Taddy…in place of a similar sounding word, gory in nature and beginning with B
