Perhaps all good things come to an end - the weather included.

Last few days here have been brilliant, lovely to be able to sit out, or potter in the garden,  but we are apparently in for a bit of a change in the weather over the weekend.

Spent yet another four hours on the greenhouse yesterday, thought I was finished, then there were even more nuts to unscrew and jiggling about to do - never mind patience is a virtue.

Terrible state of affairs when a fourteen year old boy in the UK can try and organise a terrorist attack at an Anzak Day ceremony in Australia.   From the UK there is a constant stream of  dangerous "crackpots" heading out to the Middle East, being trained by terrorist groups, and returning to the UK to cause mayhem here.    Thinking back to my recent  holiday in Egypt, folks there were on the ball, security conscious, however, here we (as a nation - as individuals) still do not believe enough that it will happen here, sooner than later, and the more aware we become the more likely we are to protect ourselves.

If this is not making sense, then make sense of the pheodophiles, (sick perverted bast***s) who are out there grooming youngsters and even raping toddlers - see this weeks TV highlights for an update on the team of depraved s**t who were arrested in England this week.

Just need to change the mind set and think nice thoughts for a change.

Was in at the ERI today and sat for ages watching the construction site where the new Sick Children's Hospital will be,  totally enthralling watching cranes, diggers, borers, lorries, etc all on the move in a relatively enclosed space.  Certainly saw the need for hard hats !!

Used the "Time machine" again, and now getting used to it, which is handling much lighter than the K75 did, but a more modern machine, and despite that still got a sore backside when on it for a while.

Doggie weekend started this evening with a quiz night, not for the dogs, but the owners.  Thinking of dogs, the collie dog which drove the tractor onto the M74 south of Glasgow yesterday certainly hit the headlines.
