    Where did you get Seville oranges @Busy-Lizzie?  So far, the local water board people have been very responsive, thank goodness.

    Didn't get much done at sewing/patch this pm cos of all the lively chat and organising going on.  Just when I thought I was safely past all the galettes du roi Gaby announced that it is Chandeleurs next Sunday and she will bring waffles for the tea break.

    Thanks.  Never seen them here.  Clearly not enough Brit about.

    Nasty weather warnings round here and the evening is getting interesting.  Heavy rain and sleet, strong winds and thunder so far.   Poor old Bonzo hates it and is alternating between trying to get under the furniture and trying to climb on OH's lap.

    Good morning! 
    Up early for a meeting, plus I wanted to check that the forecast sleet wasn’t too bad. It looks icy on the cars but no actual sleet. 

    Have a a good day all, and take care if you have icy conditions. Pat, if you are looking in, may nature sort your weather out too.

    Good morning all 😊 ☕️ 

    Looks a bit grey and wet out there ... hope your weather has improved @Obelixx 🌧 

    Waiting for OH to come upstairs with my coffee and some stuff to unwrap, ‘cos ... it’s my birthday! 😃

    Take care out there @AuntyRach ... sometimes that sleety slush can be very slippery. ❄️ 🤗
