When I got home from trading plants and having lunch at the Pub today saw these guys, the Quail family in the backyard. Haven't seen them for awhile but I do believe this is a Papa, Momma (or 2) and...
I noticed an interesting development on the news today, the UK has apparently stripped the well known ISIS terrorist 'Jihadi Jack' of his UK citizenship. It seems we can do that because he is also a...

I don't have a prediction I KNOW what the plan is :evil: :evil: :evil: Trudeau has no problem whatsoever with bringing back ALL Jihadi terrorists. They're merely misunderstood and if we help them...

There is a lot of scientific evidence to say that it does not happen due to the Earths rotation, but rather a random effect that could go either way. In perfect conditions it would happen and is...
Now this may not look like much to many but these are treasured and sought after here on the Island. Luckily enough today I came across one and just couldn't resist and had to snap it up :) :)...

The unfinished burl is about 14 long. Hard to say how big the bowl will be as it'll also depend when they start the cuts if there are holes or rotten parts too.
This type of event of people gathering in a circle and drumming is relatively common here. Drumming is taught in elementary schools to all the kids. They'll get their own hides and learn how to...

Horus Actually the drums here are treated with a high level of reverence. Don't think I've ever seen a kid just playing with one or just standing around drumming on it for the fun of drumming. The...

No more word about it this morning and now that I've slept on it and thought about it I'm thinking it possibly was one of the HUGE raccoons we have that stroll around here. IF this was a Mom Raccoon...

There are actually lots of eccentric people (but NOT me) living on the Island. Truly we have a super duper bunch of people who are able and capable of doing almost anything. I had no idea anybody was...
Grandad, have you had any dealings with Mobility Giant near Maidstone?

Yesterday when I headed out I noticed for about the 3rd time a local fellow motoring down the road here on his 4 wheel scooter. I specifically noted he was driving with 2 wheels on the pavement and 2...

The Granddaughter was at a dance competition down island this past weekend. She came in 4th in her categories so she isn't doing too bad. She absolutely LIVES to dance now so am figuring where there...
A bit late to give you all a heads up, but tonight they started a new series of ‘5 Go Barging’ which is a programme with five celebrities on a canal barge. This one will be touring through my local...

Watched it myself, but it seems to be much of the same although you do have to wonder why John Prescott is on a barge of his own. Is this a new series or a continuation of the other one? if so why...
Went with the Grandsons to a small outdoor Museum in the next town up Island. Boys loved it. It is the re-creation of what original settlements on the Island looked like.
Remember these?...

I agree with Horus sounds like you got logged out or the hosting were doing some maintenance which temporarily made the forum offline whilst you were making your post.

I have no doubt that there will be problems, but it will certainly be on both sides of the channel, the EU can easily avoid it by removing the backstop, if loss of jobs and trade are more palatable...
They kick off now and again LLL, its their way when they are being ignored, biggest problem is that all the oil companies will use it as an excuse to raise fuel prices, they do it everytime.
I referenced on another post that I didn't get a chance to take a photo of the First Nations War canoe that was coming into the Marina for the evening.
