Raspberry's are nice, but I like Strawberry better.

No, that's from the 1968 series, any other characters are from later series or one offs.

Hey, good going. They were well drawn for their time!

Great fun!!

Obscure trivia: I believe Dastardly did win once, but was disallowed...

Wikipedia - Dick Dastardly
wrote:
... On one occasion Dastardly did cross the finish line in first place, but was revealed to have extended the nose of his car at the last moment, and was disqualified in favour of Penelope Pitstop; this despite the fact that other characters had pulled similar stunts in the past without punishment (and indeed the original footage showed that Dastardly had not extended the nose of his car). In one episode in which he accidentally crossed the finish line first he was still disqualified; due to a series of crazy car mix-ups, Dastardly and Muttley were in the wrong car!

Posting after doing my couple of hundred odd metres of edges/borders around the yard.

I'm now going to enjoy a few beers and cool down before deciding on whether I get the mower out for a run (maybe I'll just do the front yard).

Cheers.

Well it looks like the weather is going to make my decision for me as a lite rain is now falling here and I just hate mowing wet grass.

Cheers.

Here, we still have total indecision as to whether the weather is winter, spring, or summer.

At least the quagmires are draining. Our road should have been opened by now also. Must check on that...
