Re: utterly random picture thread.
The chicken/kebab shop near me used to be a Jardines pharmacy. They've still got all the stock photos of smiling couples, elerdly people confidently taking bites out of apples etc. stuck in the windows

It's actually Dyson's new mow-bot. (Expensive, looks nice, doesn't work very well).

Re: utterly random picture thread.
There's a small Battle of Britain museum in Hawkinge, Kent which has, IIRC, two full-size fibreglass models (Spitfire and Hurricane). I asked about them and apparently they come in a kit to be assembled and cost a few grand each. You then have to paint them. I cracked an admittedly weak joke about the tube of glue being huge but the bloke just gave me a withering look and carried talking.

Re: utterly random picture thread.
My sister and my neice live in Hawkinge. Next time I visit I'm going to check that out.
However, my neice is arriving here on Sunday so visiting the museum will not be anytime soon.

Re: utterly random picture thread.
That screw you couldn't find.
When sticking all the crap back on the Suzuki after blowing the main fuse, I was missing one small screw. I use one of those magnetic tray but still lost the bugger. The floor is painted white so nowhere for it to hide. Nada.
Bollox...
Putting the tray away today...
