    I didn't know you used to live there @Uff. We used to rent a cottage there for several holidays. Loved it.
    How can you lie there and think of England
    When you don't even know who's in the team

    Yes. But no-one can do anything about it.

    I’m usually pretty phlegmatic about the weather … but I don’t want if you prevent us visiting son in hospital ICU tomorrow 🤞

    The weather! The good news is that I'm going up to Fife tomorrow for a week, the bad news is that it's snowing and a yellow warning for a significant amount between here and there.

    Mention of snow and Fife reminds me of my earliest recollection of being curmudgeonly.  We had been up to stay with my Gran in Kinross for Christmas and New Year.  This was back in the days of trains.  When we got back home we were told that the snow had collapsed onto the line and it ended up being closed for nearly 2 weeks.  If our train had been just a couple of hours later I would have had an extended holiday.  This was the winter of 62-63.  I still haven't got over that. :D
    PS.  I know Kinross isn't in Fife and my mother would never forgive me if I left anybody with the impression that it is. :)
