Speaking of birthdays, y’all I just turned 23 today! (April 12th), it was a fun day. Spent time with family, had an evening drink at my local Boars Nest. A man couldn’t be happier! - Tom Duke

Thanks for joining up guys, everyone’s welcome at The Boars Nest! Yep, Thursday nights are wings, Friday/Saturday are karaoke. As Boss might say, a dollar a day keeps the riff raff away lol. 😂 but seriously y’all, thanks for joining!

There was definitely more overtaking this week at the Bahrain Grand Prix. The McLarens were quickest in practice, and Oscar Piastri put his on pole for the race. Lando Norris wasn't as comfortable in his McLaren and only qualified sixth. Max Verstappen was also unhappy with his Red Bull and started seventh. Oscar led the whole race to take his fourth F1 victory. George Russell got his Mercedes up to second at the start and managed to keep the place until the end, although at the moment he's under investigation for a technical infringement. Despite at 5-second penalty for being out of position on the grid, Lando moved up from sixth to finish third. He was followed home by the two Ferraris of Charles Leclerc and Lewis Hamilton. Ferrari had an upgraded car this weekend, but Charles said it wouldn't show much improvement in this race due to the nature of the track. Max got past the Alpine of a fast Pierre Gasly on the last lap. Haas got both of their cars home in the top ten with Esteban Ocon in eighth and Oliver Bearman in tenth. Between them in ninth was Yuki Tsunoda in the second red Bull. The race highlights are here. Only a week until the next race in Saudi Arabia.

Happy Birthday, Tom.

Happy Birthday Cousin!

White (Wedding) Billy Idol song

I'm beat. A friend and I dug up the plants and split them today. Happy we were able to save so many plants. Rose of Sharons unfortunately no one wanted.

Thank you Roger. OOOooo great save there, Roger. I didn't even thought of that reference. HA. My Rosie is a shih tzu corgi mix. They are so cute and smart. I bet Lulu is cute and sweet too. Dogs are the best!

This is an excellent club......but you boys better remember.....they have a dollar cover charge to keep out the Riff Raff!! ( I never DID see anybody collecting the cover charge money! LOL !! )

Of course, Tammy Wynette also famously sang about the subject, but to keep things light, here's Scottish comedian/musician Billy Connolly's take on the song.
