Sophie and Angus have a long walk to the Holy Oak. Twenty minutes there and thirty minutes back. The return journey is conducted at a more leisurely pace as every blade of grass has to be sniffed.
Some folks say that this airport restaurant is the best of its type anywhere :http://www.oneflewsouthatl.com/foodanddrink.html

golly, I haven't heard tappets mentioned since I was helping father re-seat the valves on his old Austin some fifty years back... and they do make a worthy racket if they are out of sync. Possible TOF is being 'selective' in his hearing? Knowing that this time it would need the aid of the young garagiste... YAM xx
Merlin would not have been a fan of the 'tikes' and there 50cc motor bikes.
My car engine-obsessed nephew would happily sort out the Old Farmer's tappets. How nephew came to be so preoccupied with what is I think no longer a common passion in younger males remains a mystery - he certainly doesn't get it from either parent!
The tykes mother must already be counting the days to the end of the holidays, and has already calculated the moment down to the last second! We used to have the same thing here, but fortunately the boys have all grown up and are now proud owners of immaculately kept cars.
We had a walk along the seafront this morning, very pleasant in the weak sunshine, but sadly nothing much for Inca to sniff after the tropical downpour we had all day yesterday.
Many parents wonder about some of the traits their offspring inherit.
Sophie certainly isn't but I can't tell whether it's the tikes or the 50cc's she disapproves of.
I fear that being out of synch is th elast of the Old Farmers tappet problems.
The poor tikes mother has to get through to mid November.
