    image Morning All

    Last night settled down to catch up on University Challenge and Only Connect before this evening. Woke up with The History of the World which I find very boring but OH likes it so went to sleep again.

    Can't get going this morningimage

    Dog came back from walk very wet and full of bounce, Is now in isolation in kitchen as his large hairy feet will take hours to dry even after rub down

    Absolutely paining here. Fits the mood!

  • Morning all, a Monday at home hurray! Answering my emails from bed before getting down to some serious work. Life was much quieter and slower without emails. Students and colleagues (especially bosses) expect instant answers.



    Looking forward to Skyfall, haven't been to the cinema for yonks. I used to love watching Black Beauty on the TV when I was a kid and Follyfoot.



    Ooh er, fiddling in the greenhouse!



    Wt her, work mean now returfin the park. they have made a path to nowhere and the standing stones right nexttomthe football pitch. Hope some child is not going to come a cropper there, that means compensation would set in for the damage caused. They have mashed up the football pitch with their digger.



    Catch you later if I get bored with working, otherwise will report on the film (promise not to give anything away though).

    Morning all or Bore Da as we're multi-lingual on here now image.  I don't often visit in the morning but its such an awful day I cant go out to play image so have come to have coffee with you all.

    If we need to rescue Jean can you arrange outfits for us please Geofredo?

    Reading about muchas gracias" reminded me of a favourite saying of my late MIL - will leave out the vowels so as not to cause offence - Muchas Gracias p*n*s (translated as Thanks a Lot c*ck) image

    Glyn - you've started me off now with Follyfoot  "Down in the meadow where the wind blows free, in the middle of a field stands a lightning tree ....."

  • Good morning all,

    Hope I haven't been marked absent. Sitting down to a late coffee.

    Hasn't anyone a long extension lead for Jean?

    I loved Skyfall. Glyn. I don't go to the cinema very often either but was grandson's birthday. My daughter has just discovered that you can get two tickets for the price of one on Wednesdays if you have Orange mobile. (You can find out how to do it on their website but maybe everyone knows now)

    I found a golf ball down the field this morning. Was it one of yours,Geoff?  My son and grandson were pracitising in their garden yesterday and I think a seagull must have found one of their balls. They play at Perranporth and the seagulls are a pest there pinching balls.

    The 'Real Warhorse' was on telly the other day. Really sad.

    Morning later-comers. I've decided that I do too much sitting down so have given up crosswords and Sudoku for now. I could give up forum but somehow can't see that happening ;- ) Paining so no garden things being done.

    Geoff, that outfit has already been taken - by the headmaster I worked for a few years ago.  Though I suppose, like Father Christmas, Noddy could have brothers who appear when he is busy. I hope Jean is rescued before 6.30 as I have to go out to see a filmed production of 'Company' this evening.

    Caz, it may have been a little before your time but I liked 'The White Horses' TV programmes and also read all the horsey books I could get my hands on.

    A weird thing is happening, I think my computer mouse is freelancing occasionally as things are happening when I just move it about even if I haven't clicked. Odd :- /

  • Digitally enhanced Noddy, no! He looks far too smart.



    Morning Caz, or as they would say in Newport, awright but!



    Geoff, I am trying to galvanise myself, but finishing writing my course report is not my dream of a morning. The emails keep coming in! Have to admit just read a bit more Dalziel and Pascoe!



    Going to work right now.

    Glyn I found Skyfall great entertainment. Won't say more except Daniel Cranes body Yum!

    Probably a mistake putting that on herer.

    Just been to greenhouse and attempted hardwood cuttings on this pretty shrub we inherited absolutely no idea what it is but would like a back up in case anything happens to it. Tried with softwood cuttings - dismal failure.

    Love the Noddy costume complete with getaway car, Hope Jean is OK- not too cold. Can I be tessa Bear please?

  • Matty2Matty2 Posts: 4,817

    was White Horses the one wherre they galloped through the sea at the start or is it something else I'm thinking of?

    Even Noddy (original) takes me back. I still have TessaBear! Must check her condition
