Happy 147th birthday to a local man Hubert Cecil Booth, he invented the vacuum cleaner. It was powered by an internal combusion engine nicknamed "Puffing Billy". It was rather noisy as a result.

 

He came up with an alternative version, an electric one, where the electricity was created by a dynamo with a large treadmill in the garden where alpacas had been trained to run on the treadmill. I have not been able to find any pictorial evidence of this though

 You’ve got alpaca-itis 

Hope it’s not catching  

It's Alpacalitis which is highly contagious for Camelidae. Symptoms include an insatiable appetite for plant material.

I've now found some pictorial evidence to sort of support this. Here's today's Google Doodle:

though the animal on the right is closer to a horse rather than an alpaca.

Goodnight and sweet dreams, Ros.

Hug for any night owls 

night yogisummer if you pop in

Popping in to wish you all sweet dreams it’s been a busy day, the alpacas have arrived and we’ve been showing them around! I spur of the moment decided to strip Bramble’s fur, it takes hours but is worth the effort. She was so fed up, bless her, but now she’s gone WILD!!!!! I think she’s happy lol  

hope you all had a good day, will catch up tomorrow  

Good morning everyone

Cloudy here at present, but forecast to become another sunny and very warm day.

Summer, I hope the alpacas are settling in and are house trained. It might be a bit disconcerting for you if you wake up one morning to find that they are lying down on top of you
Bramble must be feeling cooler now

I hope everyone has a good day

Good morning everyone  

Its very hot here already and not to much breeze 

I shall shop then back home and do, well, we shall see but not a lot comes to mind 

Bramble sounds a happy bunny now, Sweet 

Have a good day Buddies 

Good morning everyone, there's a lovely breeze coming in through the patio door at the moment, lovely.  It was a little cooler last night which was very welcome and the blue sky is back.  Bramble sounds like she is going to have a very happy day now.

Enjoy your day everyone

Good morning everyone 

It’s sunny with some cloud and it feels a bit muggy.

Off grocery shopping, have a good day, all.

Besides astronomers looking for exoplanets they are also looking for exomoons some of which could be earth-like.

There's a nice little cartoon picture of the Kepler telescope finding such a moon

Another sunny and very warm day here.

Here's one cornetto you would not want to eat. It was popular from around 1500 to 1650.

I hope everyone has a good day

BBC article todaay about the complexity of the terms and privacy notices of well known social websites:
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-44599968
Spotify has the longest at about 13,000 words and Netflix the shortest at around 6,000 words.

As I've had to do the same for my clients re GDPR I thought I'd check the length of mine, privacy notice 1,766 words and terms 3,359 words so 5,125 combined. Still lengthy but a bit shorter than Netflix.

Good morning everyone, it's turned humid here but thankfully it's a little cooler as well.

Enjoy your day everyone

Squiggle, it's still very warm here with the heatwave looking as if it will remain until Tuesday when it becomes a bit cooler.

Good morning hestwavers  

we’re finally having a calmer morning here so I’ve caught up on admin and I’m thrilled to be free to say hello  

happy Friday how are we all? 

Good morning Summer All is well here and it's good to have a calmer morning from time to time

Good afternoon Buddies  

 Very, very hot here again. Hardy any breeze either 

Have a great day everyone and stay hydrated
