Reminds me of the Asterix cartoons - one of the Romans was called Titus Aduxus :p

I've not read that many Asterixes but I do enjoy them.
Don't remember this character.
Of course I read them in French when I get the chance and the names are far funnier, the translations or adaptations aren't always "on it".
But I like Titus, sounds fun.
The little old man with the fab girlfriend, Mlle Boutfiltre, (Miss Filtertip), is called Agécanonix, which in French is quite rude!!

Having got all hot'n'sweaty opening the pool am now sat down with a Gin and Liptonic.
(This was an accident, thought I was pouring a large tin of Tonic for W, realised too late so just thought "I know, I'll put some gin in that and see what it tastes like!" In fact it is very nice! She has no gin in hers! Shhh!
 
I was just congratulating myself on not spilling any sump oil (tratter oil n filter change today) and then dropped my ratchet wrench into the bowl full of 7 litres sump oil. Splashed some on the driveway :mad:. A few naughty words escaped my lips. Any road up I used the race track method of cleaning it up - spread some neat cement powder over the spill and brush it around a bit, soaks it all up and leaves it skid free. (my driveway ain't the prettiest so a few blotches don't make no difference)

Seems awfully quiet out there. Have the lockdowns started already?
Might finish painting the shed.
