    Dull and grey here and slightly damp.   Set to stay that way all afternoon which is OK as I have lots of homework to do by Thursday but I also still have bulbs to plant.  At least the soil should be soft by now.

    LP - just ignore all dodgy emails and delete them without opening.

    Hosta - surely you are not complaining about being warm????

    Pat - worrying photos.  I hope you get some rain soon.   Our pond is very low too as is the reservoir lake in the village.    Fingers crossed for filling rain this winter.

    Chicky - I love cloud formations and we get some really interesting ones coming in over the Atlantic coast but the pale grey blanket we have depositing heavy drizzle has to be the least interesting.  I hope your clouds aren't making you wet and cold over there.

    OK - lunch and homework calling.   Keep warm everyone.

    I think most of us probably agree LP, I certainly love the help and friendship I get from this site.

    Have to agree.   Great community with some great characters and loads of varied experience to help us all along.

    LP - you're missing a trick. You have to string them along and take the p*ss. Great fun if you're having a boring day   :D
    That's the ones we get at work. Some of them get very irate. One of them insisted it was my 'photos' that were causing the issue. I stopped short of asking which ones - the gimp masks and whips, or the fully naked shots. The boss falls for it every time and gets panicked. We have to shout at her to put the phone down.  :/
    Oh - and have a few sherries and then answer them...  :D 
    P*ddling down here but not quite so windy for now. Damp patch hasn't increased but possibly later if the wind is stronger.  :(
    Tucked up in the warm is the best bet today doc. Plan for next spring while you're at it  :)
    It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....



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

    Well, since it’s after midnight here Chicky, I’m stopping for the day. 

    I agree with you all,  that I love having the support of everyone. 

    Night all.
