Served the Queen. Now happily retired. Married to an animal angel. Owned by pets & a horse. Trying to get the degree I flunked the first time.
Using your Detective skills. Can you guess where we are?

It’s a bit moist.

Mrs W came home from her horse ride with a bag of dognuts.

She’s a keeper.

In 1994 when I worked in Cambridge I went to the Boat Race pub after a day shift with some mates. After 20 minutes we decided the live band that was playing were pants so we went into town.

The band was Oasis.

Gareth, making crap decisions for 30 years.

I have today discovered America has a place called Beaver City.

I love America.

Morning people. You’re over the hump. Well done. Only two days to go until the weekend. You’ve got this.

I know many of you will be keen to know what I’m doing.

Well, I will be working very hard at doing f’ck all.

How do we always end up at a horse supply shop when the boss has a day off.

In car with the wife. I’m driving.

Sam ‘why are we driving so slowly’?

Me ‘I’m being sensible, I’m driving to arrive’.

Sam ‘Any chance we can arrive today’?

Jonesy is stressed to f’ck.

Happy Monday. I’m sat in the sun whilst Mrs W makes up some straw nets for the horse. Not a bad start to the week. How about you guys?

Yes, I know. You want feeding.

Mrs W has been educating me regarding a cat’s primordial pouch. It’s an extra flap of skin which is positioned along the length of its belly. One use of the pouch is to store extra food in between meals. It’s perfectly natural.

So, as of today, I’m identifying as a cat.

Think I’ll stick to calling them a Dr of ears!

How did I convince my educated and clever wife to marry me. Reason #27.

Me ‘What do fancy watching tonight’

Sam ‘I’ve been listening to a podcast about the ‘Ascent of man’. Are there any documentaries on iPlayer. What were you thinking of’?

Me ‘The hangover, part 3’

Watching the cricket.

Commentator ‘She’s a left handed swinger’.

I didn’t realise there was a preference as to which hand you used to grab the car keys from the fruit bowl.

Every day is a school day.

I’ve investigated complex criminal conspiracies which have resulted in lengthy prison sentences.

But, I will never understand the LBW law in cricket.

Sat here watching ‘The Hundred’ cricket match. I was wondering why the bowlers only bowl 5 balls each over.

Then I figured it out.

I’m not just a great body and a cracking sense of humour.

Mrs W is doing a horse jumping pole lesson. So, what is a man to do? Go and see his mum and get lots of cakes. 5 down, 5 to go. I’m no quitter.

Mrs W is sorting out Norman’s stable. I’m sat in the sun offering advice. I’m good at offering advice.

So, one of only two flying examples of a Lancaster flew over us this morning. In my hast I tried to get a photo. You’ll just have to trust me. Not sure I’d make an action photographer. If you squint, you’ll see her.

You might be a cool dude, but you’ll never be as cool as the 6 million dollar man dropping a Coors with Steve McQueen.

Is there anything more terrifying than when you’re in another room & the wife uses your full name and says,

‘Gareth, can you come here please’.
August 15, 2024 at 3:34 PM
The boss is buying horse stuff so I’m sat taking artistic photos of the East Anglian fenlands. Described by the Anglo Saxons as ‘The home of monsters & hermits’.

Norman needs a new head bridle thingy.

Bugger. This won’t be cheap.
