Shwmae Bluemoon. One Popeye pizza from Peppermint in Wind Street, Abertawe. There’s a branch in Caerdydd too yet I’ve never spotted them elsewhere.

I converted to vegetarianism after bowel cancer last year as I ate utter crap daily. I think I’ve shed about two stone now. Anyway, it was nice. Diolch!View attachment 77981

A good veggie pizza is top scran, and I'm a meat lover.

had this beast in the garden today about 4-5 inches long, thought it best not to touch it, anyone know what it is?

Whereabouts are you? Doesn't quite look right but if it's got red/white stripes on it's side it might be an Io moth caterpillar which does have venomous spines so you wouldn't want to be touching it. Not native to here though hence why I asked about location.

Probably a snack where you live.

You moved to Oz.
Being upside down gravity pushed the bad shit out of your lungs.

That's not an eagle, that's a pigeon.

But yes it's The Eagle.

Didn't it become The Seahawk?

Hmmmm now you are testing the memory. I do remember a Seahawk but I would have said it was a different pub.
Back in a moment.

Yep I was right. Hang on whilst I accept the accolades, pats on the back and of course the medal.
OK back with you. The Sea Hawk was on Bold Street the Eagle was on Robert Adam/ Charles Barry Crescent.

Some designer will have been paid thousands for that and will no doubt win awards.
John Nash, William Kent, Robert Adam and some other bloke designed and built the Crescents in Hulme. I dont think they ever did give their awards back when the deserted derelict uninhabitable Crescents were bulldozed.
That building is an eyesore.
