Messing About in Boats

 

Here in the You-Kay, Summer has been blighted by high temperatures and limited rain, so this slide is of a scene that might be difficult to recreate.

Bonus - 

Deckchair under Stress

 

Actually, a deckchair under Euphemia McGlumpher and he Grandkid "Alberta"

Not much more to add to that.

Bonus - 

Man on his deathbed

Motions his wife closer and whispers, “I want you to wait 6 months after I’m gone and then marry George”. 

Wife responds, “Marry George? I thought you hated George”! 

And, with his last breath, says, “I do”.

Swan Farming

 

The farmers of Chipping Farkleton meeting to harvest the swans by hand.

Nowadays, this is done by machines, but sometimes, the old swan-strangling ways are best.

Bonus - 

A Happy St George's Day to all.

 

All throughout England, the merry citizens are celebrating the saints day of St George, the Patron Saint of Engerland, Bulgaria, Malta, Catalonia Scouting and Syphilis.

And how better to celebrate St George than with a view of Merrie Olde England.

Polperro, I think. Here?

Curses

Bonus - 

The Disappointment of the Seaside

 

You never really get over your first disappointing visit to the seaside.

It's touted as a wonderful, sunny, cheerful romp on the beach.

It turns out to be a cold grey day at the sewage outflow from Clacton.

The Smiths - Not Even The B-Sides

 

One of the side effect of this slide collecting hobby is the realisation that some slides might make reasonable Album Covers.

It's then a small step to thinking "Who would that be an album cover for?"

Ta=Da ?

Bonus - Further evidence that "The Camera Never Lies" is a busted maxim.

The DeepFake Terminator.

A Fine Saturday for a Wedding

 

And for once, I'm not going to make up some sarcastic details about these folks.

Bonus - I went to the store and said to the worker, "I need a battery so I can tell the time."

 He asked, "Is it for a clock?" 

I answered..."I don't know! That's why I need the battery!"

Edgar...with George

Obviously enjoying their coach trip around Cornwall. Looks like Polperro, I think.

Bonus - Dog Tired
