    Good morning all  :) hello Pat  :) If any of you were looking in this direction an hour ago you would’ve seen a woman of 27ish running across her front garden in her nightwear waving her arms and whispering threats at the neighbours’ rather surprised looking fluffy tortoiseshell feline who had been scraping a hole in the arid dust bowl that used to be a lawn. 😠 She hadn’t expected me to be awake and on guard😉
    The sky is a hazy blue ... think it’ll be another warm and sunny day ... I can hear green woodpeckers yaffling out there.

    I've clicked on it Dove - at least it was different stuff today...
    Morning folks - afties Pat. Rain here too - no washing going out  ;)
    Hosta - I did notice that when Geraint won, the first headline I saw said British, but I think someone musthave been whispering in ears because they seemed to bend over backwards after that to ensure the Welsh bit was mentioned!  :D
    Better shift - I think this may be a long week at work...colleague is on hols, so I'll get the flack to deal with...
    HAve a good day folks  :)
    It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....



    I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...

    Morning all. 
    Not as much sleep as I'd have liked, but hey ho. 
    I took my break yesterday morning in a car park with a car boot sale next door. 
    Guess what followed me home?

    Hi all.
    Sounds like a heavy day at work Hosta.
    Bloody annoyed. We have a lovely stone wall, part cemented, part dry stone, that separates us from the lane. Overnight someone has decided that we needed some graffiti to jazz it up a bit.

    Oooo that’s a nice one Hosta.  Haven’t seen it before.
    Its freezing outside this afternoon. I was chatting to a woman in the Doctors waiting room this afternoon and she said it had been snowing all day at Adaminiby. No wonder  the wind is so cold. I think there were a few flakes on my windscreen on the way come from town. 😬
    I had a good session at Ukelele. Learned a new rhythm and was given a new sheet of music to learn. Don’t all laugh together now - it is Waltzing Matilda. The difference is that we are to pick rather than strum. Ok. I’ll speak English now.
    What are you all planning today?

    Hiya Pat.

    My OH was talking to her Auntie in Perth W.A. yesterday. She was saying they have even had snow there.

    Hi Punkdoc, yes I noticed that on the Weather Channel - crazy. I’ve never heard of WA getting snow before.  Sorry to hear about your lovely wall being decorated. Drives you mad thinking about it.

    Where's the red faced emoji when we need it?
    My daughter has just sent me a message wishing us a Happy Anniversary.
