  • Good morning all - I overslept!  Has Panda got my bodyclock again???

    Awful weather up on the West coast of Scotland - Stornaway coastguard talking about the sea state being 'phenomenal' - apparently that's a tech term for the worst it can possibly be!  And a lifeboat's gone out to rescue a Spanish fishing boat whose wheelhouse has been smashed by a wave - brave people those lifeboard men and women!

    Keep those hatches battened up there in the northwest!

    BTW I just read back - Chicky, that is appalling!  Borrow a baby from someone!  They have to prioritise babies (and they're less trouble than borrowing an Old, believe me!)/

    Do you have FB or Twitter?  I think just the promise of a mention of their after-sales service would have them beating a path to your door! image

  • Sorry Chicky that you have no heating. Mine went off yesterday because power was switched off while electricity poles are replaced in the village. All very efficient and planned. But as the house cooled down it made me think of all those people who struggle to stay warm. I am now warm again, as I hope you will be soon. 

  • The fact that Chicky has woodburners probably means that they don't have to prioritise her repair image

    Not good Chicky, I think I could manage without the heat but can't bear the thought of no hot water Brrrrr.

    Going back to KEF's dilema about male or female doctor.  She should use mine as an example.  He decided to come to work as a she.  It was most strange.  Come to think of it he was very gentle and softly spoken.  It still felt very weird when going to see him (or should I say her). 

    Lovely sunny day here, haven't ventured outside yet so it could be colder than it looks. 

    Just sprayed some Allium heads silver to use as Christmas decorations.  Think I should have sprayed them outside, feeling a bit lightheaded at the moment.

    Have just switched on TV to check the news and the Sky box isn't working.  Hubby is not going to be pleased when he gets home.  I'm off on Nanna Duty later today until tomorrow evening so I won't have to listen to him complaining. Hurrah.

    Off for a quick look round.

    What Happened?? awoke this morning to a bright sunny day, by the time I had my breakfast and shower ( my priorities are right tea and breakfast first) it was black as hades the lights went on hearing a noise the trees were bent double and things flashing past the window. It could well have been the children from the school over the fields being blown about. Now I am sitting in sunshine and no wind. The weather bomb must have exploded further North and we got the fall out.

    Climate change? What Climate change??

    Frank.
