Meanwhile, from The Times (paywall), via Rob Price's Twitter feed. ???

Amazon have a temporary job as a TV host.

Ideally candidates should be tall, have an extensive knowledge of progressive rock, and be required to wear pre-washed denim. I think that the last requirement will rule out most people here.

[Chris]

I'm more put off by the prog rock requirement…

Thanks G, that link worked.  The other one greeted me with a username & password.

Anyway, kick ass vid.  Thanks.

Good luck Texans with Hurricane Harvey. I hope you and your Iron Hearts stay safe and dry. It doesn't look good.

Hope you've got a generator, buddy…

I read that the speed of the wind gusts has gone down… Down to 110mph though, so still absolutely crazy...

Be safe, y'all!..

Could not have timed the move to San Antonio better.

Of course, we're supposed to close on the sale of the old house on Thursday, so that might get pushed back.  But things here in SA are not bad at all (yet?).  I'm worried about friends and family in Houston, though.  And parts of the coast are going to be well and truly f*cked.

My girlfriend's mom's house north of Houston flooded a bit, but she didn't get hit as bad as people in Houston.
Meanwhile in Austin our ceiling is leaking in the guest room of our apartment.
Still counting our luck considering how bad Houston is getting hit.

A couple of months ago Paula and I popped over to Spain for a few days.  Whilst I was there, I saw a photo of this path.  Urdon to Tresviso.

I promised myself that one day I would do it.

I'm back with Paula, weather permitting, tomorrow is the day….

Love the Picos,
hiked there three times!

Once, after a days hike, we had to climb down the Fuente De wall because the cable car guys refused to take our dog on board.

I had to throw away my hiking boots after that.

Enjoy our vacation!

[Seul]

Where did you bury the cable car guys?..

[Graeme]

The dog ate the bodies.

much fun guys…
