Whilst we were away recently we found a diorama that included the cathedral used as a filming location for King's Landing in Game of Thrones, so naturally we took a suitable photo and 'shopped a background in.

I know we have snow forecast for resort at the mo (it’s on the mountains down to about 150m above us!) but I really don’t think he’ll need the snow clearer this week :lol: :lol: :lol:

You're right. That tape will take all the paint off the walls when removed. Blu-tak would have been a better option.

This reminded me of that episode of The Simpsons in which Homer was allowed to design a car.

Could be. As long as they're not processionary moth caterpillars. :(

We get those, Pine Processionary. We don't have pets so not an issue. When they're out of the tree they wander around for a bit, find some soft ground and bury themselves, it's not like there's millions of them all over the place every day. I've seen one procession this year.

Only ever seen them processing once, across a road on a Greek island. I think the line went from one side of the road to the other. There was no traffic otherwise there'd have been a few gaps!
