Tudor manor house in Carrick-on-Suir, Co Waterford. The older bits sticking up at the back are the remains of a Norman castle. I'm certain last time I saw it there was no rendering on the front, but the Office of Public Doodahs are quite responsible about things like that, so (without verifying it) I'd assume the rendering is pukka lime-based, and likely what it would have looked like in its heyday.

It got a bit hot and bothered yesterday, though.Originally posted by dorkburger View Post
I took it for a motorway blat to see what the fuelling is like at a sustained 90-ish. Hmm... oil temp off the scale, but I suspect the gauge is lying. However, it was a bit hot, there's no doubt of that. The apparent high temp wasn't accompanied by the usual signs of a genuinely overheated engine, but some fiddling is needed. A small oil weep from the valve cover was entertaining me by smoking like a campfire when I stopped, and the downpipes at the exhaust ports are turning purpley-blue. I don't like that.
Even though the AFR gauge was telling me things are ok, they're not quite.
Just as well these are tough old brutes.
Yesterday was the inaugural run-out of my recently acquired Canon 5DII and just for fun I stuck on a Tamron SP 35-80, which has given me many good shots on my Pentaxes.---- Dave

Had to go to Walgreen's this morning and though I'm not sure how or when it got on, I found this guy walking up onto my clutch reservoir as I was parking in my driveway. He let me get a few head shots but the humidity fogged up my lens pretty good and I didn't bother to wipe it off. By the time it started to clear up some, he decided he had enough
