The totals for the month: another light one with 103 miles running, 20 new pubs, 4 kebabs, 5 “fish and chips,” 3 short reviews. Here’s the cartoon of the month (not necessarily a monthly feature):
It was colder than it should be most of the month, rarely breaking 70F (21C). Throughout the same time, Tucson (our last US residence) temps exceeded 104F daily (40C). To paraphrase the trope from there, ours is a damp cold.
I got out quite a bit at lunch or just after work and explored some new areas for me. On one journey around Rubery, I spotted the culvert just beyond the shopping trolley, above, and immediately thought what a good hash trail I could put together if hashing was something I did, anymore.
Probably thirty years ago, now, we gave Debra the iguana pipe in this photo, which she sent captioned, “Iguanaman Lives!” She doesn’t use it for dope, anymore, but this story does seem to suggest she has another pipe to hand not far out of the frame.
Attending some training at the Med School, I encountered an old school toilet. Love the overhead tank which, should you need to flush a small dog down the pipes, provides an excess of removal pressure. In a cramped little box, this photo of it is comprised of a three shot panorama. (I am officially Britain’s most boring man but definitely not Ireland’s most romantic one.)
