If that's your kind of humour have you ever watched "Jungle Burger"? A very blue, hilarious cartoon version of Tarzan.

It looks a lot like mine used to but still very similar. I "inherited" all dad's tools plus all the stuff that came from our haulage business when we closed it down in the early 90's. Whatever you do, don't move anything or you will be in trouble! I went to university (at 41) when we closed the business and I ran my diesel car for two years on the diesel drained from the "scrappers" that had been in the yard! All run through a "Purolater" filter! I see that we have around the same number of hack saws too! Dad used to lose stuff and just buy another one ( or two, just in case!) instead of finding the missing one!

Just remembered I've still got this!



One of the few videos I still have. Still got a DVD/VCR.

One line that sticks in my mind, June (Jane) has been kidnapped. Shane (Tarzan) says to himself "Shane must save June" then he thinks for a minute "but if Shane try save June maybe Shane get sh*t kicked out of him!".

That so reminds me of me (and my dad). Jars full of nuts, bolts and screws that "Might just come in for something"! Seeing the saw, I recently sharpened and cleaned up the "American" saw that my dad brought back from the States after visiting my uncle. His favourite trick was to show how flexible it was, by feeding the end of the blade through the handle! I bought a new saw file and did it the "old fashioned" way! "Like a knife through butter" he would say and he wasn't wrong. I've been using all the stocks of nuts, bolts and screws for about twenty years now and have hardly made a dent in the pile! When I cleared his garage, I shifted about a hundred part tins of paint "In case anything needed touching up"! A local engineer took his stock of metal angle, hollow sections and tube as I couldn't get it all on the van! A local woodworker had all the hardwood and the softwood went for the "plot" as it was towards the end of October!

Good morning, we had a light breakfast prior to boarding for the flight to London. The eggs were a tad runny. I hope I can keep them down.

Have a great day 😀😀

A good day to yourself and all on 75&ZTOC. Tea and croissants consumed, another snooze, followed by a bit of touching up! The fence and shed need a little more of the paint that doesn't do what it says on the tin!


SWMBO is off on a mother and daughter day, so I can leave the seat up all day!


A quick mow of the lawn too. It needs a trim. The box hedge had the dreaded caterpillar/web infestation, so I pressure washed it! (just plain water) Much quicker than trying to pick it all ou by hand! "She" reckons that it might kill it but I have radical ideas when it comes to gardening! A pressure wash = a heavy storm! Looks much better now! Time will tell!

All onboard but not sitting next to Jessica, despite paying extra to sit together another passenger has come between us and although he is in the middle seat, he doesn’t want to move. The joys of flying economy. Overcast and cloudy here in Nairobi
