I can sympathise there my friend - after more than three months I've finally got some relief, by way of an injection, from the pain of a trapped nerve in the neck (can't remember the name of it), and a stretched sciatic nerve - so I understand exactly how you feel !

And I can't believe I've repeated the mess I made the other day !
Opened a brand new tin of matt black enamel paint, just to paint an area around 3 x 5 mm. On replacing the lid, my stupid rigid fingers once again flipped the tin over !
Not quite as bad this time, as only about 25% of the paint was lost, and it didn't reach the carpet - just my trousers !
Double B*ll*cks !!!!!

No wonder why I'm slowly switching over to paper models.
 
Dang deer at the little park at the end of my block started "snorting" at something at 3:45 this morning and kept it up for a good 10 minutes. This is in the middle of the city, not out in the country so it's odd to hear a deer making that kind of racket for so long. Sounded like it was standing just outside my bedroom window! Must have eyed something that it didn't like, probably a cat sneaking around the neighborhood?
Of course I couldn't get back to sleep for over a good hour and a half after that! Thank goodness for free coffee at work.
 
Got the regular e-mail newsletter from the RAF Museum, Cosford today, giving details of the next 'Open Cockpits' night.
It's on September 18th and 19th - the same weekend as the BoB 75th airshow at Duxford, so I'll miss it !
Apart from a number of cockpits and aircraft interiors which will be opened up, and that I'd like to get detail pics of, the World's oldest surviving Spitfire Mk1 (shown below) will be open (for viewing only, not to sit in, understandably), a very rare chance to see this aircraft close up.
B*ll*cks !!!

Surely in the days of high definition video the museum could make a video and stills record to satisfy all parties?
 
Very probably, but it's not quite the same as being there in person, and actually seeing the interior of the Spit, and in the case of the other aircraft and cockpits being opened, such as the Anson and Pembroke, for example, being able to see, smell and 'get the feel' of the interiors.
OK, in the past I've been fortunate enough to sit in more than one Spitfire (and taxi one, under supervision), and have also been in, sometimes flown in, some of the other aircraft involved, but to be able to obtain one's own detail photos is very useful, especially of such 'rarities' as the early Mk.I Spit, or the Bristol 188, which can be shared with other enthusiast and/or modeller friends who are unable to get there, mainly due to their geographic location.
I have absolutely no interest whatsoever in football, and in fact can't stand the exposure it gets, but I can fully understand why a 'fan' would, for example, love to have the opportunity to tour the Manchester United facilities, even though a 'virtual tour' probably exists somewhere in the boring world of the game !
 
My son, the dear sweet obedient boy that he is, decided, after being told repeatedly not to, that it would be a good idea to have a rock throwing fight after school. Long story short, a little boy was hit and once again I am sure we are branded a playground pariah.
 
The local Robins, which have two or more broods each year, are gathering in family groups and feeding like mad. Getting ready to head south. Also some trees are beginning to change color. Gad, winter is coming.
 
My cat is in heat...

While her antics are driving me to the verge of insanity, I know that within a few days, the vet will cure this madness and all will be right with the world again.

I wonder if a trip to the vet would have cured my (ex)wife's bullsh!t, too...

Unfortunately there is no cure for that. Too bad Adam couldn't have just been happy with his right hand and a sheep.
 
Heard on the news that the whale turd wants to bring 10,000+ Syrian w*nkers to the U.S. If they are Syrian Christians I have no objections as they are targets of genocide and should have asylum here. If they are the "other", send their butts packing elsewhere.
