O/T:- Front of my land bulldozed today

[navypie]

It was a joke.

Lighten up shipmate.

Finding it difficult when the end of the world is nigh. Could be worse I suppose, might have bumped into Laddo when I went for a pint.

This is grim. Hope you're ok, Tarquin.

Let's lighten the mood everyone.....they ain't been back.....yet.

My last words to Ecologica truck 70 was "I don't mind paying privately for a couple of his guys to trim my/their trees with machetes, but no heavy machinery".....the mention of dinero here usually works....he asked me if I was "Americano.....mucho dinero?" and looked disappointed when I said "Ingles, no mucho dinero"....he started to trudge off as I had a brainwave " dinero en libre cervezas manaña" which I think means money and free beers tomorrow?.....things looked hopeful as he turned, smiled and said "possible"

They ain't been back yet as I sat all afternoon without my normal English radio diet (weird in the middle of Mexico) of Radio Ga Ga, Livin' on a Prayer and Thunderstruck all afternoon, worrying I might miss the dozers returning.

Told this story to my mate Dickie in Tennessee, who's offered to bring a Harley biker gang of "good ole, boys" down plus a guarantee of a drone strike by his "personal buddy, Trump"....he makes me laugh......he sent me this that made me smile, saying "you Nottingham English guys are crazy anyway man, play this at full volume through the hotel loudspeakers until we get there".....enjoy.
