Eldritch

There is some evidence that oil is not a finite resource.

Nope. Even ignoring whether we could go all electric for energy we'd still need oil for many other things, plastic being a fine example. Most fabrics these days have a basis in oil somewhere down the line, many paints . . .

So nope.

Well as the saying goes 'He did fuck up'.

Forgive my crude bloke frankness - but hell I would. You're gorgeous :) My you find someone who loves you as much as I love my wife.

According to the Alt text that was effectively the 'before'? Damn you're hot as hell and the bloke deserves to die without ever experiencing the love of a woman for the rest of his life.

They can sod right off.

Bad reporting. The ambulance did reach her, it just couldn't park where it wanted to. Big difference.

Some of you may recall I had some of my images on display in an exhibition. Rather pleased to say one of them sold :)

Cunningly titled 'Lichfield lunar eclipse'

Totally agree - the public should not be the ones expected to detect them. Be interesting to see if anyone brings an ICO complaint against someone wearing them.

There's an app you can get now that warns you about these being near you.

It's like he thinks taking his ball away is somehow going to stop the others from wanting to play.

Can't beat some sunlight on your plums.

Sometimes.

Just had to separate two male swans who in a fight over the local female got themselves firmly wedged between the base of a willow tree and our jetty.

Picked the top one, returned him to the water, retrieved the other one, escorted him to a safer location.

No arms broken.

I am told that in Poland they are referred to as kidney donors.

We're on fixed price electric for the next 18 months and living afloat means we don't use much. Car wise, can't get around that but mine does best part of 60mpg so a fill up every two weeks is enough.

As far as I know Tango man has said pretty much the same thing?

Its the usual case of selective reporting. It would appear that obtaining it may be '4 times cleaner' - but the only reason we obtain it is to burn it and then it is parity at point of use.

Good start to the week - expecting 3 new students for forklift training - got 1 so far and course was due to start 15 minutes ago.

Editing has been around pretty much from day one - but I think there is a very fine line between 'heal brush' tool and 'generative fill'. I think 'Harmonise' is another that is hard to put in a camp.

I think so long as the buying public are happy to buy an image not a photograph we are being honest

I fear photography is a dying art. Editing has become more and more a part of creating an image and each succession of software makes it simpler to achieve very credible results. It is now hard to decide which editing features are 'editing' and which are AI effects that have been applied.

I'm prepared to say its probably a fire.

Got round to starting to repaint the boat interior today. Biggest challenge is moving stuff out of the way so I can get the job done. Managed maybe 2m of one wall and will slowly do section by section until job done.

I do like the colour though and overall pleased.

We've still got a few more weeks to go in the UK

Well, compared to an emu or ostrich . . .

Just thought "I really should get this listed." Spent time creating the images for listing, prepared the little promo video the discovered I'd already done it :(

So sod it here's the 2nd promo post of the day.
