Picture or Video of the day.

I remember my mam cooking beans in a pan on the open fire there were more black bits in the pan than beans by the time they were hot but it did us no harm

In my student days my flatmates and I competed to see who could make the laziest meal. I won by punching a hole in the top of a tin of beans and sticking it in the oven for 20 mins. Came out perfect.

We used to put empty crisp packets on the poker and hold them over the hot coals until they shrank and then had mini hard crisp packets. Christ knows why though.

I remember doing that too. Great fun!

Really nice picture . . . . . Did you take it? If so, then I'm very impressed

 

[Chippy_Tea]

I will be honest i never took it but do have pictures of a kingfisher on my phone, we live near an old diseased canal and if you are very lucky you may see a Kingfishers when walking the towpath its only happened to me twice but SWMBO and my son have seen them more regularly.

 

[Obadiah Boondoggle]

We used to have a garden with a stream running through (since moved house) - we used to see Kingfishers regularly - what stunning birds they are

We did manage to take some pictures

and also one of a sparrowhawk on a wall near the house

Taken in the small town of Kampen whilst on holiday in the Netherlands. I've no idea what the story behind the name is.

This is a rubbish picture of a buzzard I took when out with the dogs.

Looks like the back end of an Anglia 105E. I had one in my early days of car ownership . . . . . You could see daylight through the floor on the driver's side

We have very similar structures at our bus stops except fewer sheep.

 

[Chippy_Tea]

Do your bus companies allow sheep to travel on them?

Do your bus companies allow sheep to travel on them?

Only leader sheep but they have to have the harness and flap saying "I'm a leader sheep. I'm working. Please do not sheer me or pet me"
Edit: to be clear, I am joking. You won't see any sheep where I live.

 

[DavidDetroit]

Seriously, if a sheep were someone's therapy sheep, I would guess the buses would allow it.
We have funny rules in the US. Some places pets are totally welcome even in restaurants. As much of a fan of animals as I am, I don't think it's good.

I was 12 years old feeding that pig the other pig was a boar called Oscar.
