I'm so disappointed in you, Doodoo, because you the Great Helper, flunked the test. You could not help.

LULU
If you reread my entry and then step back and give it a moment, I have helped you. Rather than giving you the answer like a parent would do to a child, I have provided you the avenue to obtain the proper answer, something like Teacher would do for a Student.

I would have assumed you would benefit more by this method, but again maybe not.


Again, Hope this helps

Uncle, I reckon you need to take Doodoo an apple to express your contrition.

Uncle, I reckon you need to take Doodoo an apple to express your contrition.

Initially, I was thinking he might go for a Georgia peach. However, I decided that Doodoo deserved a raspberry instead. Is that contrite or what?

[Doodoo]

Now Lulu
you just went and proved that I have to treat you as a Parent would treat a Child and not a Teacher helping a Student

Thanks for the fun food holiday reminder! I never realized September 19th was National Butterscotch Pudding Day. As a lover of all things butterscotch, I'm excited to celebrate by whipping up some smooth and creamy homemade pudding.

Butterscotch pudding is so underrated compared to chocolate and vanilla. It deserves more time in the dessert spotlight! That rich, warm flavor is the perfect ending to any meal. I may even top my pudding with whipped cream and crumbled cookies for a decadent treat.

Food-focused holidays like this are such a tasty way to break up the everyday routine. I'll definitely be observing National Butterscotch Pudding Day and invite others to join in the enjoyment. Desserts like this are meant to be shared!

Let's give this classic, nostalgic flavor the appreciation it deserves calendar 2024 . Thanks again for the delicious reminder of one of my favorite comforting desserts!

'll second that. Butterscotch and caramel are delightful treats. I can hardly wait until the next National Butterscotch Pudding Day, in some nation, rolls around.

Buy British Day – October 3, 2023

In 2014 an organization called Best of Britannia organized a Buy British Day event in Clerkenwell, Central London, dedicated to promoting British brands and businesses. However, this was not the first time that a day, or a campaign, was established in honor of supporting British-produced goods.
In 1968, a short-lived campaign called ‘I’m Backing Britain’ was created and put into action by five Surbiton secretaries who agreed to work an extra thirty minutes each day, without pay, to increase productivity and encourage others to do so the same. It drew an enormous response from the British public and quickly turned into a patriotic movement that even got the attention of the then Prime Minister, Harold Wilson.

Some even credit this incredibly random event as the reason for the high visibility of the Union Flag logo that littered the high streets. After that, media proprietor and former Member of Parliament, Robert Maxwell, expressed his desire to take over the campaign by changing its name to ‘Buy British.’ A few months before putting the plan into action, it was realized the campaign had not made an impact on businesses or the economy at all, and it was eventually scrapped.

It is said that, in 2014, this old, scrapped, and patriotic campaign was given a new life, probably by the Best of Britannia. Since the 1960s, the British public has once again taken to buying British goods.

A problem with buying British post war was quality. More than anything else, the auto industry produced a lot of rubbish. Jaguars were notorious for being unreliable, BMC had some howlers so a major industry went South, bad management and hopeless unions did Britain no favours

True Whistler
I had a cousin that was a Licensed Jaguar Mechanic had his own shop and worked for many people who thought they were buying a topnotch piece of equipment. Unfortunately he owned a Jaguar himself and while on vacation he had to pull it into a garage and work on it himself. This was the only one he ever owned.

GOLF DAY

The modern game of golf may have originated in 15th century Scotland. However, it is unclear and very much debated as to its ancient origins.

The world’s oldest golf tournament is The Open Championship. Its first tournament played on October 17, 1860, at Prestwick Golf Club in Ayrshire, Scotland.Golf in the United States:

1779 – The Royal Gazette of New York City posted an advertisement for golf clubs and golf balls.
1796 – The Georgia Gazette publishes notice of an annual general meeting for a golf club in Savannah.
Golf became firmly established in the late 19th century.
1894 – Delegates from the Newport Country Club, Saint Andrew’s Golf Club, Yonkers, New York, The Country Club, Chicago Golf Club, and Shinnecock Hills Golf Club met in New York City to form what became the United States Golf Association (USGA).
1910 – There were 267 Clubs affiliated to the USGA.
1922 – Walter Hagen became the first native-born American to win the British Open Championship.
1932 – There were more than 1,100 Clubs affiliated to the USGA.
1980 – Over 5,908 Clubs affiliated to the USGA.
2013 – Over 10,600 Clubs affiliated to the USGA.

National Poetry Day.

The Tay, the Tay. The silvery Tay,
The greatest river on this Earth
It passes the shipyards every day,
And up and down to Perth.
