Did your kids give you that mug for Father's Day?

It feels like 33 C, but that's an improvement.  

It's currently 94/34° but feels like 97/36° the humidity has improved slightly, earlier it felt like 99/37°. The front isn't forecast to reach my area until tomorrow. My headaches.

Well, in my defence, I would point out that what he was holding in his right hand wasn't the first thing that caught my eye in the photograph...

There's nothing in his left hand 🤔 oh, you were enamored of his facial hair.

Had me reaching for one of my disposable razors.

One of the best cheeses in the world is Lancashire - really sharp taste, and  lovey crumbly texture. Cheshire is similar, but maybe a slightly milder taste. They both make the most delicious cheese-on-toast.

Maybe that's just something to do with the fact that they were the local cheese brands when I was growing up.

(In fact they're so local, that hardly anyone who's not actually from the locality even knows they exist)

(Marty's useless piece of information #2752)

 

Lancashire seems familiar. Not that I've had it only heard tell of it. I don't recall Cheshire.

Incidently, my mum's family the Mathers hale from Lancashire, village called Lowton if I recall correctly. They emigrated in the late 1590's.

Wegmans the Publix of the Northeast...or Publix could be the Wegmans of the Southeast...😀 Both great supermarkets...

 No doubt.  My BFF and I were instant best friends when we started quoting Monty Python to each other when we first met.   

Arthur King of the Britons regularly attends faire.

White and green...Dennis was working at the office, then helped his friend fix his rooming house and one of the tenants (guy was shot 5 times in the head) hit Dennis' nose with the paint brush...(that was the Green..the white was when Dennis painted the door and a tenant opened the door into his nose...😀 ). Dennis is taking 4 of his friends tenants to a job site tomorrow (including the guy with 5 bullets in his head, the 3 others are felons, but his friend tenants are nice, too.)

Now I remember where I heard reference to Lancashire cheese and Cheshire.

Ni!   Oh no I said "it"!

My aunt gave me a copy of Monty Python and the Holy Grail for my birthday when I was 15. I'd already seen about half of it before, and I couldn't finish it. That DVD went straight into the donations box for Salvation Army. From that point forward, I concluded that the best present she could possibly give me, would be to stop giving me presents.

Nope.  Arthur, King of the Britons.  

I didn't vote for him

Well I should have said Arthur, son of Uther Pendragon, King of the Britons. That's likely the source of confusion.

I have it on DVD, VHS, and can quote the entire thing verbatim.
