Nice picture :)

I reckon the snow and cold has caused me to think Tuesday is Wooden Wednesday, but, wood it is for this Tuesday. I am also back to seeing critters and now big fish in Desert Ironwood. For the pile side of the Viper, I do declare I can clearly see "Moby Dick" !!!! 🤣🤣🐳

Very nice pictures. This swayback is superb. 😍
 
My check up went well yesterday so, today I'll be celebrating with a cheese, ortega chili, and sausage omelette at the Wagon Wheel Cafe after dropping off a package at the Post Office for one of you BF members. I haven't carried this Bull Nose for awhile so, it will accompany me on my travels today.

I realy like this Barlow I bought on Sunday.

I went to see my Dad and his partner today they are getting on a bit.

She doesnt eat much lately, but does when I bring tasty sandwiches around for them.


He lives 2 minutes from the REME museum which was my corps in the Army.

So I nipped in on the way back to check my dog tags where still on display and had an excellent cup of tea from the cafe.

Its a strange feeling being a museum exhibit makes you feel very old and ancient,but also no one can call you a Walt (walter mitty,or stolen valour as they say in the US) 🤣

I got copy's of the Corp magazines with the Queen on the cover for a few friends I served with which I will post out.

I also bought a sign for my shed,which is 100% English in thinking. 😇


The museum is in Lyneham in 1978 it was an RAF base,our Hercules broke down on the way back from a tour of Northern Ireland and had to land there for repairs.

My parents lived 30 miles away but I wasn't allowed to to go straight there for my leave.

The Army insisted I go back to Germany first then fly back out to England,this is of course typical of Army's world wide,no common sense (hurry up and wait was our motto)...:rolleyes: 😂

Great ride back there wont be to many more sunny warm days,so make hay while the sun shines.






























 
That's a cool sign :cool: Looks like an interesting museum too :thumbsup:

I gave an interview to a feller about 15 years ago. Four hours got cut down to 20 minutes. Then it was being shown at the Imperial War Museum. I was a bit embarrassed as he had told me it was for some, much smaller, project :rolleyes:
I knew you would approve of the sign 😁
