Good morning fellow Mastos and hello to Thursday. Flying home today after MrsD's birthday bash in Tenerife. It's going to be a dreary, tedious, mind numbing day for me!

Hopefully you will have a much better day than mine. Take care. Have fun. Laugh a lot.

Cheers.

Good morning fellow Mastos and hello to Tuesday. Hope you slept well? I didn't as MrsD has a new hobby, snoring like a two stroke chainsaw! 😟

Hopefully you will have a grand Tuesday full of fun and laughs. I'll be trying to sleep and stay in the shade!

We'll be home Thursday to check if the house sitters have eaten and drunk us out of house and home! But even better, to pick up Wesley from his other mum and dad.

No photo today again, weird WiFi restrictions here.

Good morning fellow Mastos and hello to a hopefully peaceful Sunday. Yesterday's trip to La Gomera, basically a huge extinct volcano, was fun. And hot!

Have a quiet Sunday, and have a few laughs along the way!

Yesterday's mystery object was this massive thing. Alt text has the details, but see if you can guess what it is...

Good morning fellow Mastos and hello to Thursday. A late breakfast today, but nice. I do like the continental style breakfast - lots of pastries!

Today is a wandering about day. No fixed plans. Have a great day whatever you are doing.

Today's random photo is missing! There's a problem here at the hotel. @Tusky is blocked on WiFi. A couple of games don't play too. Works on mobile data though. Unfortunately today's photo is taking forever to load.

It was last night's "smiley" moon and Jupiter.

Just been for an after dinner wander with MrsD. Saw two "naked" geckos, Jupiter, the moon upside down, a Star Link and a Chinese satellite. How did I know the facts about the satellites? I have Stellarium on my phone. Very useful.

Good morning fellow Mastos and hello to a new week, provided that your new week starts on a Monday!

Have a great Monday, if such things are possible, but have fun too. That bit is important. Cheers

Today's random panoramic photo is from yesterday. This is the view from the toilet door of a café near La Coleta. The whole area is littered with these tiny stone "cairns". Someone had way too much spare time!

Good morning fellow Mastos and hello to Saturday. Saturday the 9th of March. Also known as MrsD's birthday. I wonder if we'll be shopping again today? No party planned, she says she's too old, and I definitely am. But we should have a good day.

Have a great weekend, have fun, stay safe. Cheers.

Today's random photo is from Tenerife and the waves are breaking over the rocks.

Good morning fellow Mastos and hello Friday. At least I'm sure it's supposed to be Friday, so I'll run with that. 😉

Are you up to anything special today? I have MrsD's birthday tomorrow so I better get some shopping done. Any suggestions?

Note that I already bought her the hiking shoes she wanted but I don't class "clothes" as a present so I will get her something else.

Today's random photo is called "a rainbow on my bed". Physics people: I know, it's a spectrum! 😉

Good morning fellow Mastos and hello to Thursday. Hope you have a great day without me! I'm going to be out of contact today for a wee while. See if you notice! 😉

Stay safe everyone. Catch you later.

Cheers.

Good morning fellow Mastos and hello to Tuesday. I'm hoping to be shot of this cold sometime soon, but it's not looking hopeful at all. I'm not happy!

Wesley will be well annoyed today as he's booked in for a haircut. If he realises where he's going, he's a bugger for turning around and heading off in the opposite direction. He's been carried into the groomers more than once!

Have a great Tuesday folks. Enjoy your day. Take care

Today's photo is from June 2019. Mount Etna, from Castlemola.

Anyone else on @mastodon.scot not seeing any images this evening? I see the ALT text and a blurred out image in the timeline, but just a black display, with the alt text, when I click the image.

I'm using @Tusky on Android in case that makes a difference.

Thanks.

Good morning fellow Mastos and hello to the weekend. It's Saturday. Sadly the forecast is not conducive to a happy day out! Sleet, rain and freezing temperatures. Wesley will not be happy to go out!

Have a great Saturday. Make sure you stay dry and warm. It's pretty naff out there today. 😐

Today's random photo is from December 2020 and is frost on a wooden gate post.

The late Ken Dodd was so well endowed in the "gentleman" department, he wrote a song about his manhood.

A penis.
A penis.
I thank the Lord.
That I've been blessed.
With more of my share of.
A penis.

Good morning fellow Mastos and hello Thursday. Another night with little sleep but I did get some. I hate this cold with a vengeance and it's only day three!

Hopefully you all got a full 8 hours and are ready to greet the day. Or not, if you live it another timezone if course. Have a perfect day everyone and try to keep laughing. People will think you are nuts! (Works for me!)

Today's random photo is from 25 December 2018. I got a hat from Satan and I had to charge it up. Bluetooth speakers!

Good morning fellow Mastos and hello to what appears to be Wednesday. I've now had two nights with no sleep. Pretty soon, I will be wrecked. I hate this damned cold!

Midweek already eh? Where do the days go? MrsD is off walking 12 miles today, through mud I believe. I'll walk Wesley and go back to bed!

Have a great day whatever you are doing and remember to have fun. Take care.

Today's random photo is from 31 May 2020 and is a bear with no name, made by MrsD. Currently guarding my piggy bank!

I used to love tractors when I was younger. Sadly, no longer. I'm an ex tractor fan!

So, I clicked a link in my timeline and found myself on the bird site for the first time in about a year. This screenshot was the first thing I saw!

Spooky!

Good morning fellow Mastos and hello Sunday. Frosty and foggy again. Oh well. It might get above zero later! Whatever, stay warm, stay safe and have a great day. Have fun too, don't forget.

Today's random photo is from December 2021 and was taken on the Bolton Abbey estate a few miles from Leeds. Before they put their entrance charge waaaaay up in price!

Shame about the fuzzy grey line through the image, if I remember the wood pile was behind a fence!

Oh dear.
How sad.
Never mind!
