Wasn't sure where to put this.

Blue plaque unveiling for Sam Allen tomorrow and the second one in Kent Road.

Much more important than the cup final or celebrating the breeding programme of the House of Saxe-Coburg-Gotha.  Smiley

Why don't you knock it off with them negative waves? Why don't you dig how beautiful it is out here? Why don't you say something righteous and hopeful for a change?
Crap!

Definitely. At the home of a family friend too, they're really nice people! (Although not that into football, which is a shame, but very proud of Swindon's heritage)

The Royal Wedding, interestingly the sermon by the American minister is rather captivating (says the non religious man), kind of reminds me of Reverend Lovejoy from the Simpsons.

Well said Legends....as one coming out of a faith background it infuriates me that weighty scholars and preachers are now analysing and judging his 'performance', when, in one sermon, he has made a greater impact with the non-religious than they will make in a lifetime!

Doing 180+ miles on the bike in Holland and Belgium over the weekend and getting home 2lb heavier than when I left....

It was a fairly alcohol and meat rich weekend.  Cheesy
