Andysworld! wishes you a Happy British Summer Time!
“Britain was the first nation to adopt daylight saving schemes in 1908.
Some people believe the pragmatically minded British did it to make economy on candles.”

and originally GMT and BST started and ended at 2.00 AM until the Summer Time Order of 2002 to link UK Summer Time to Europe permanently!
I’ve blogged a few times about Willies Delectable Cacao. Because I had completed all my household chores this week, Lindsey bought me a present!
If you fancy some proper Rich Dark Chocolate flavoured with Orange this Christmas, rather than that overseas “stuff” from the EU, “tap it and unrap it “ - “you know the one that Dawn French advertises!” (we do not mention their name since they left York!).
Try Willies Delectable Cacao Cuban 65, Luscious Orange. Made in Devon, England, Great Britain!
and if you are interested in where the Baracoan Cacao beans are from, here’s some pictures taken in Baracoa, Cuba, when we visited. (and also spotted the worlds smallest frog!) - it wasn’t a chocolate frog!
Hiya Willie!
I do not know how long I’ve been collecting one and two pence (1p and 2p) copper coins, I’ve just been throwing them in a terroctoa urn, until I broke it! Times are hard, and Christmas is coming….
…. so time to cash them in.
This plastic bag weights 10kg, contains approx 1000 2 pence coins, and 1255 1 pence coins!

For almost two years, I drove past these every week, but never had the chance until now, to get up close and personal with these pre-historic monoliths called the Devils Arrows!
Away from the office and computer yesterday to get some fresh air, and pass the time whilst the car was in for a MOT and service, (okay I did have my iPad and 3G wired into the Net!), I thought I would go for a wonder in the turnip field to visit these giant monoliths, considering the night before was Halloween, I did not notice any cult activity!
I think I’ve also sprained my left ankle, too much walking yesterday, some would say that’s because your too fat!, or just sit on your bum at a desk all day! (I thought I would get that in…..)
Anyway here are the photos….
You may have noticed the abscence of blogs, in the last 12 days, that’s because I’ve been back “home” to the land of the Cream Team. That’s Devon and Cornwall if you’ve never had a scone with Cornish clotted cream.
A good friend of mine “Boot Ferrule Man” got married. (So Congratulations again to Paul and Sally). Drop by his website http://www.jlbelectronics.com/. So spent 10 days in Devon and Cornwall catching up with folk and doing a few touristy things, like eating Cream Teas, visiting St Ives, Tavistock and The Garden House.
The last time we visited Devon and Cornwall was in 2007.
Well I think it’s better known as Tokyo Metropolitan Government Building, located in Shinjuku, Japan was the tallest building in Tokyo. Shinjuku also has the busiest train station in the world! (and it’s busy!).
Tokyo Metropolitan Government Office Building
It has a two panoramic observation decks, one in each tower on floor 45, we went there one evening 7 days before the big one of March 11, and we also had dinner in the resturant.

and just to prove we were there, here’s a screenshot from an Ipad, using Assisted-GPS (it annoys me when people keep telling me they are using GPS with an iPad or iPhone!) of Google Maps in the Tokyo Metropolitan Government Office Building, Shinjuku, Tokyo, Japan.
