First there was that weird CGI Thomas with American voices. And now this! :cry:
Pretty sure Pat never had a helicopter.

Helicopter Warning
May 4th, 2014
I don’t remember this sign from the highway code. Suspicious as it’s in a forest.
Incremental Improvement
March 30th, 2014
Did the Hastings Half Marathon last weekend in 1:33:51. A whole two minutes faster than last year!
Another fifteen years of this rate of improvement and I’ll be a winner…

Thank You Tesco

I just don’t know what to spend my 2p coupon on!
AutoRip Fail
February 16th, 2014
I love Amazon’s AutoRip feature. For just a few quid extra you get a real physical product and the convenience of downloading MP3s right now.
Recently though I’ve noticed cases where Amazon wants you to pay more to not receive the CD in the post. E.g. I came across these two in the last few minutes. Not that I’m complaining, mind.
ISO 3103
January 27th, 2014
I was recently alarmed to discover that my tea making regime is not ISO 3103 compliant. I have amended my practices and suggest you do also lest a surprise inspection visit from ISO Technical Committee 34 (Food products), Sub-Committee 8 (Tea) finds you non-compliant.
Gotta Catch Them All
December 31st, 2013
After a hiatus of over 20 years I got another Pirate Lego set for Christmas! My parents tracked down from eBay the one set I was missing from the 1989/90 Pirate range, 6270 “Forbidden Island”. Got all the bits and the original instructions! Flag was a bit borked by I replaced it with a spare on I had.
Here it is with the big pirate ship and raft. Probably acquired those on some previous Christmas. Apparently there’s some newfangled “Pirates of the Caribbean” themed pirate Lego: kids these days…
Impeccable Timing
December 16th, 2013
This evening I went running for exactly 41 minutes 41 seconds and 41 hundredths of a second.
Compressed Air
December 16th, 2013
Ah, the humble can of compressed air: is there any problem it can’t solve? Just now with his sidekick Henry he managed to repair my dead CPU fan!
