Pics or it never happened missus. Did grumpy get one too?
Grumpy did not get one - he had a massive half sleeve done last year though.
Mine is a ~smidge~ smaller 😆

Here's a pic the tattooist took:

Point of order! Tarantulas don't sting ya, dey bite ya!

But they do inject venom - a bit like a bee sting to us hoomans - with their fangy bits. 🕷

True spiders have chelicerae, jaws that move sideways, so they don't bite, in the traditional sense, to inject their venom, they pinch. :thumbup:

I am a significant Pendulum fan. But this is unrelated.
A happier coincidence than the swinger theory, mind😆

Course we have proper cheese but the cheap craft slice on the bacon makes the taste. A nice bit brie would be crap. I would not make Macaroni Cheese with anything other than a nice cheddar as that is what makes the taste for me. The pretentious over priced cheese shop has a time and place but not when i want a cheese and bacon roll.

The prices on the restaurant side of the place are cheaper than McD's & the food is stupendous... and it's in Beverly Hills. Eaten there quite often when I'm in the area. :)

The correct wine to pair with a bacon sarnie is Chablis.

Went to Machine Mart and bought a 27 mm socket and a Rubber Hammr.
Was going to go for a short spin but it was too cold.
Adjusted the chain on the NC - Not entirely sure the rear wheel is complexly straight so I’ll have another go at the weekend but I’ve no time left the rest of this week,
I think this non DID chain is on its way out anyway.

Probably a tad far from me so i will have to stick with what Tesco has in stock or wait until i am in Edinburgh next for M&S :thumbup:

Not a great fan of white wines so ill stick with a cop o tea.

Jesus christ, my keyboard is loud!
The door hinges on the SBH need lubing.
The keys on the fob for the SBH rattle too much

I’ve never been one to complain about the heat. I’m still not complaining as it’s only temporary, even so, with the aircon on full chat it 31 inside.
I bet it’ll be well over 60 in the Tin Shed ‘o Shite.

I envy you. I'd much rather turn on the air conditioning than the central heating!
