    Way to go Dan! Now tell us what keywords to search for! Or perhaps add one keyword we can use to find all your pics, like 'Wordforge' :D

    Some pics from a rather mad day out. I went with my dad to Blackpool to tie up some of my late grans affairs, check the gravestone, check the flat(which is/was for sale) and decided to come back the scenic route via a garden centre. Amazingly, as we were driving to Blackpool my dad got a call, he pulled over, took it and it turns out someone had made an offer on my Grans old flat, he negotiated a bit and sold it there and then for 92 grand. The thing had been on the market nearly a year and only had one viewing and no interest up till that point.
    Did my good deed for the week, as we were driving home through a village about 10 miles south of Lancaster i saw a wallet in the road, got me dad to stop and retrieved it. Turns out it was chock full of cash (about £160ish) tons of credit cards, debit cards and all sorts. Managed to get a phone number off a business card and used my dads mobile to get hold of this guy. We were heading north out of the village and it turn out he was heading south. I told him to turn back and meet us at the village square. He was rather amazingly pleased to get his wallet back and offered me £20 for returning it (which i refused, or course) Ive never seen someone grin so much
    Then i bought a great new Chinese Elm tree at the garden centre (where i saw an uber gorgeous Ferrari 360 Modena), some low nitrogen feed and some bonsai soil before going to the pub and having a top steak in guinness pie and chips with me dad
    All in all a top day out, pity i didnt take more pics

    What the fuck, you posted a picture of a spider similar to that yourself, without spoiler tags, you even started a thread on it IIRC.
    How come you can post a pic of a spider and not me?
