Don't generally play flight sims and my friend bet me and my other friend we couldn't land an F-4 Phantom on an aircraft carrier.
Well my friend in charge of the tail hook and gear sent them out a bit late. The gear proceed to snap off, we missed the hooking on to the cables, slid down the deck with fire coming out from under the plane and hit 4 other planes on deck. We lived, ejected, and he never said it had to be a perfect landing!!!! Score for me.

I had a call out yesterday to get a snake out of somebody's living room (wild snake not a pet). After I did my thing I noticed the elderly resident had a "WWII Veteran's" hat on and I asked him about it. He started telling me some stories about what he did. He was based in Europe during the war as an artlleryman and saw a few things. One that he was proud of was meeting Patton where he verified that Ol' Blood-n-Guts DID carry pearl handled pistols! As I couldn't stay long, we talked for a short time and then I thanked him for his service and al that he had done some 60 years ago. He was smiling broadly as I left. Cool day!

having two hotels offering me a head chefs job.
was a difficult decision but i've opted to be head chef at Hallgarth hall hotel, a decision based on its only twenty minutes from my home so i'll use less petrol and i'll have more chance of a family life and more money to spend on model kits etc, thats if theres any left after my wife and daughter have finished that is !!!!!!!!
so give me a month to whip everyone into shape and if your passing drop in and i'll cook you something

Congrats Rochie, that's wonderful! 
Here, it's midsummer night's eve tonight, complete with bonfires all over the country, and the traditional send-off of witches to Brocken. Please see The Brocken - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The broom is polished; flight suit, helmet and radio checked and ready, guns cleaned, olied and loaded and missiles are loaded - I'm ready!
Jokes aside, I invited biker buddy Jørn, and we're going to have dinner (- boiled chicken w. new boiled potatoes, cucumber salad, sauce, garlic baguettes and salad), and later we make us some coffee and head off by the small, curvy country roads on motorcycle to watch the midsummer bonfire at Roskilde Fjord right next to the viking ship museum.
It is absolutely wonderful - you can see several bonfires along the coast, and the warm summer evening makes it just about perfect. I'll see if the camera'll cooperate later in the evening.

Congrats Karl.
What cheered me up today (other than the England result) was that today I finally graduated from St Andrews University with a Bachelor of Science Honours Second Class (Division 1) (Upper Second/2:1). I'll have some pics up in the next couple of days.

Had a wonderful evening - thanks for the good wishes, guys - good food, good company, wonderful weather, motorcycle purring like happy kitten, curvy summer roads, no deers, hares or other critters getting in the way on the way home around midnight, and an absolutely stunning view over Roskilde Fjord w. calm water, plenty of boats out to enjoy the evening, bonfires along the coast, fireworks, and good company.
Mmmmm, gotta love an evening like that!
