TWO DOGS DINING




the song of the nightingale

sitting in the garden tonight, listening to the sound of the sun going down,as always, I noticed a nightingale looking for food,when another one (nightingale ) came and joined him the first one was very aggressive and a fight followed,accompanied  by a chorus of song from at least 4 other nightingales up in the trees. so there you have it, when the nightingales are singing so sweetly all night you can bet there is a punch up somewhere near and they are laying  their bets. frank

Windsor W/end and Cav Sunday

Will I see many ROYALS this time as I believe we were a little thin on the ground last year.
I did not go due through ill health.

Oh Dear!!

What a shame to hear that my good mate and good friend Osama has left the building. This means that I can no longer nip out for quick kebab and a cosy chat. SHAME... I do hope that he isn't going to make a pig of himself with the 40 virgins that have been reserved for me....

becks was improperly dressed.

Did you all watch the Regt reunion world wide on TV today . & did you see Beckinham wearing  his MBE on his R/H lapel. I thought you only wore it on that side if it was originally awarded to a dead relative. drinks all round I think Becks. Frank.
