That pie looked so tempting that I just had to go and buy one for myself....! I am enjoying it now

I'll go for Lamb Keema?

Bumped in case anyone hasn't seen the PE cover.... Mine arrives on a Thursday now - after years if being on a Wednesday. Not conclusive, but I suspect the Royal Mail have quietly stopped the daily delivery. Anyone know anything about that? Pete? I've noticed a big deterioration in postal deliveries...

£88.70 here at Pete towers.

I know from 'experience' that this is caused by a phosphorus deficiency in the soil...

I've put it on Youtube after slowing it down to half speed (for clarity)

Hope my link works

I heard anatidaephobia used today, a fear of being watched by a duck. A new one on me :biggrin2: I had a touch of anatidaephobia last night..... I bought a Chinese takeaway and on the drive home I heard a rustling noise from the bag. I looked inside and saw two eyes staring back at me. Panicked, I ...

I've got the less sophisticated version without the handle...

It's the top of a chocolate powder shaker for sprinkling on top of your morning cappuccino?

It looked to be landing at the back of Hope Technology.

Just taken off again 11.25 heading West.

I've just had a look at their 'cycle route' and the directions given take you up Red Lion Street in Earby instead of the proper route of Stoney Bank Road...!

Being a Cumbrian by birth, I recognise this as hematite (or kidney ore) I had a piece which I found on a spoil heap near Frizington in my rock collection when I was a kid ..!

I'll go for Mold (because it's easier to spell..!) and i'll say the photo was taken with a telephoto lens with a very wide aperture.

I'll go for Victoria Cave near Langcliffe?

Thank you all for the Birthday greetings...! :smile: I always know when it's my Birthday because they play 'God Save The Queen' for me on the radio at 8am :biggrin2: I have reached 68 years young today - maybe I should change my username to 'ExPostmanPete' after being retired for 2 years..? Kev, I n...

Looking at the rainspots on the camera lens i'd say Southampton?

I'm now the proud owner of an expensive pair of Altberg walking boots, specially shaped to accommodate my bunion deformed feet. I'm also suffering terrible anxiety about getting the lacing right and when and how to treat them with the special waxes provided....are they too warm sitting in my utilit...

I think that I should claim the prize for this one. I use my kazoo as a candlestick...!
