Have always loved a Grey race horse, and always in the past bet on a grey horse. Though I wanted Mystik Dan to win so we might have another Triple Crown winner, I was silently hoping for Seize The Grey to win. I had the station...

A few days ago, some friends gave us three lovely mangoes, the ones you see in the photo. It was very kind of them but, to be honest, we’re not hugely keen on mangoes. I know many people love them.
Vince’s sister was one of...

Even thought my middle son couldn’t go to his derby either today due to having the flu. His Den leader was so kind enough after we had emailed him yesterday to see if he could get one of the boys to race his car for him. Once...

My daughter did the red car with little flowers. I did some of the little...

The Biblical Flood features on quite a few pub signs. It pleases nearby churches as a reminder of the faith, while also pointing out that the pub is a great place to shelter in a heavy storm, staying dry and drinking until the...

Dating from 1580, this is Derby’s oldest pub, and I enjoyed calling in for a beer on my whistle-stop tour of the city.
The hideous looking three dimensional monstrous fish creature on the sign is supposed to be a dolphin, and...

A busy time looming, which explains why I have posted so little this last week or so. Wednesday 19th June 2019 saw my routine doctor’s visit, to check my blood pressure which is coming under control nicely. The rest of the day...

My last few diary entries have become weekly summaries rather than daily ones and I must get back to daily entries here, but overall the last week has been very quiet for me.
The chance to watch the movie Robot And Frank was...

Over the weekend my 6 year old has his first Derby race with his Scout Troop. The race went well. There was 4 heats where the kids cars when 4 times one in each lane. My son’s car wasn’t the fast nor the slowest. He was the second...

My 6 year old son is in the process of making his pine wood derby car. It’s his first one that he is ever making for scouts. In 2 weeks they will be racing their cars against each other. All we have to do now is put his wheels on...

I left shortly after I finished notifications and breakfast this morning to do laundry at my son's. I never know what to expect when I go there, and today was no exception. I can hope for a movie, watching him play a video game,...

Many pubs in Lancashire bear the Stanley family name of the Earls of Derby, who hail from Knowsley (itself a name given to Stanley family related bars).
The family itself owned this central Preston pub until 1923, and the pub...

I can't believe Man city beat Man utd in their own stadium. It was an interesting match, and the better team won at the end.

I think it is time for another car story. I remember one of our best/worst cars. We called it the war wagon. It was a station wagon that was built like a Sherman Tank. It was green and almost indestructible. It had some bad...
