But engines aren’t pretty Wß At least in the last picture it’s clean. So no more lifting the bonnet, hitching your skirt up a little and looking lost when the car stops? You can fix it Where next? Mercedes F1 Team? Red Bull? They needed good engine builders last race.

I've been getting into dry aging beef, so far I've been able to do a 35 day dry aged rib eye steak without killing myself or my friends. For anyone interested in the process here's a little overview.

WB showing his age! haha.
I think I'd be pretty good at engine re-building I'm good with that sort of thing but I would have to make it look perfectly clean, there is no point half assing a job! You gotta do it properly!
As for that Beef... it looks way too fatty! Yucky yuck yuck!

Grrr!
So I went to Tesco's last night with my brother who's 20 and we got about £50 worth of items, including some common items like bread, milk, pasta, butter and cheese. We also decided to get two energy drinks, one for me and one for him.
We get to the self-checkout and put everything through, put it into bags and then the self-service checkout flags us up because we have an age restricted item (the energy drinks).
The lady (probably in her 60s) walks over, she looks at both of us... and then says "neither of you look 16, can I see some ID?" to which I replied "I'm 27..." and chuckle, my little brother replies "and I'm 20", he pulls out his ID and she looks at it and looks up says "So you are, sorry about that". She looked over at me and I said "I don't have my ID unfortunately" and she just decided to let it go and overrode the warning. I guess she thought why on earth would an under 16 year old be hanging around with a 20 year old buying stuff like milk, bread, butter, cheese and pasta... lol
It was pretty funny because my little brothers had his car keys in his hand, 2 keys for properties that he is selling/doing viewings for (estate agency) and had his business card which shows he's been working there for 3 years.
I only had my phone so the only way I could have proved my age via my business emails (scan of passport) or maybe they may have accepted me getting "Yoti" out, which is an ID Verification app, which I've verified with my driving license & passport + picture of myself + video of myself saying certain words/phrases.
I'm coming up 28 this year and my little brother is coming up 21... still getting ID'ed for energy drinks! That's not even alcohol! lol

Don’t knock it RyRy. When you’re 57 and only look 37 it’ll be pay back time!

I've been traveling... on a real vacation (holiday) with absolutely nothing to do but enjoy every day and where it takes me. I'll post some pictures when I return but suffice to say that I've been at one with nature in the great Pacific North West.

Grove of the Patriarchs these aren't even the biggest in the Pacific North West, they're just the biggest in Washington State. There are sequoia (a type of pine) trees that are over 2000 years old.
The one thing that's cool about the US is that we've got snow capped mountains, tropical mangroves, deserts and everything you can think of in between as a climate in one country.

Yes , your country is SO big. I thought they were sequoias, they’re amazing! I’ve only been to America once and it was Florida The things I wanted to do there were go to the Everglades and to the Keys, but we didn’t, we did the parks...which were really not brill. I have to give America another go...so many things there I’d realky like to see.

Saw the tour come past my chalet today. The stage finished at La Rosierre about 5k further up the mountain. We saw Chris Froome. He’s the third one in the following picture. He’s lying in second place now with another Brit,Geraint Thomas , also from the Sky team, in first place and now wearing the yellow jersey.

Out of curiosity stonemonkey who commissions work like this? People with lots of money. As far as I know, the home owner has to pay for it but the building is listed and its some national heritage organisation that orders and oversees the work. I'm not 100% sure though.
