A label printing joke.

I've shared this before, but it always makes me laugh. The pettiness of the joke.

Morning Suzanne, have a good day.

Morning Didi.

Good morning ORCs from back home in Medway. Laundry day today before hopefully getting back out on the road again tomorrow. Freezing in Warwickshire yesterday but much warmer in Worcestershire for some reason. Have a good day all.

Leamington Spa looked nice from the bus!

Tbh the museum was a bit mid but it passed some time. The SS Great Britain was a lot more interesting, and I’d like to try to get to M Shed next time I’m around.

Good morning all from Bristol. I visited the SS Great Britain yesterday, where the passenger bunks are about two-thirds the size of my hostel bed, imagine that on a long voyage. 😮 off to Warwick this morning and then I’ll try to find a drive to take me vaguely in the direction of home.

Not visited any of those places yet, alas. It does look like a lovely part of the world. Maybe in future if I can get a drive down here again. :)

Thanks - I’m just going into the city museum and art gallery, which sounds interesting. Wishing you a good day too. :)

A dog and a lamppost have a special relationship as well.

Good morning ORCs from Bristol. Hostel has a burst pipe and clueless residents. Bristol is very noisy and Minehead was … strange. Day exploring today before driving again tomorrow. Happy Sunday all!

Happy anniversary!

Haha, thanks!

The above list of people in a photo together from January 1994

Suede’s best lineup: Brett Anderson (vocals), Bernard Butler (guitar), Mat Osman (bass), Simon Gilbert (drums), Stephen Fry (euphonium), Ian McKellen (kazoo), Pam St Clement (vibes).

I once had a roofer turn up to work a bit late and apologise profusely because his wife had left him that morning and left their baby with him too. I was astonished!

It is indeed a supermarket delivery truck, and it has consumed £65 worth of diesel since leaving Hartlepool yesterday. At least it’s no longer raining inside the cab …

Good morning ORCs from a motorway services in Somerset. Weather is horribly dull here, I wonder if it’s the Sahara dust? At least it’s not raining, which is a good thing because the van’s roof leaks copiously. Have a good day all!

New pet peeve: motorway services that remain open despite having major building work happening in the car park. Looking at you, Tamworth Moto. 😠

Casting call! Looking for a woman voice actor, 50+ who is versatile and a vocal chameleon / can play many different bit parts in an audio comedy.

We’re recording in London on 13th & 14th April. This is a paid opportunity. Actor does not need to be autistic!

You have truly surpassed yourself queen!

Hope so, thanks!

Belated good morning ORCs from Wetherby services. Today I am driving the world’s worst supermarket delivery van towards Somerset (I think). Horrible weather and I need a coffee.

Modern cars are so weird! I drove a Cupra recently, hit the wrong button on the steering wheel and a lap counter appeared on the dashboard! What the hell do I need that for?

Oh dear, was that a similar experience?

Good evening from Hartlepool. Today’s vehicle was a Maxus E-deliver 3 (no, I don’t know either), which handled like a milk float and cannot be recommended if you’re the kind of autistic person who can hear electricity. Also it took me ten minutes just to figure out how to get it moving.

Thanks Didi.

Egyptian prince Thutmose was entombed with his companion cat Ta-Miu (aka “little mewer”). Here’s the cat’s sarcophagus ~ the inscription says “I myself am placed among the imperishable ones that are in the Sky / For I am Ta-Miu, the Triumphant” (1,500 BC)

Good morning ORCs from the train, I’m en route to Hoddesdon to collect a vehicle and head north. Glad to have a day’s work at last! Lots of fog around, I hope it isn’t going to make driving difficult. Have a good day everyone.

Morning all. Not been sleeping well at all lately, I seem to have forgotten how to get through a night without waking up. No suitable driving work available at the moment, everything seems to be starting from the north of England or Scotland. Must try and have a productive day!

Thanks Fran.
