    That's not on is it Flo? OH knows murder would be commited around here if he tried anything like that!

    Pam- brilliant news!

    The torrents have arrived here! No plans to go out today, shall send OH out this evening to move the garden wheely bin out. His car is probably too close anyway, so he can discover that!!

    Internet upgrade being done this afternoon!! Am firmly hanging onto remote, shutting the lounge door & watching tennis! Shall point OH in the direction of hoover/dustpan etc should they be needed. And then to top it all the hairdresser arrives after tea!!

    Right, my accounts wait......... know will need to copy some things but cant get at copier whilst OH working from home.image J.

    Wel it's been drizzling since first thing. That's why I'm stuck at my computer. The BBC forecast has changed a teeny-weeny bit since yesterday and might not be as bad as feared. It's still looking like telly this afternoon.

    Good day to be indoors on Wimbers semis day-there are brownie pints on offer for anybody who spots a Bunny reference and extra points for a "Fred Perry since 1936" reference

    Just having a 'orrible shower

    It's an afternoon for channel hopping. As Tour de France is on ITV4. I like the aerial shots and looking in people's back gardens. Can't say I'm comfortable about Andy today, though we have been assured of the outcome from a reliable source.

    This is his year -it is written in the stars.

    There is a new fad in town-celebs are now tweeting pics of themselves laying on beaches-I could do that- it is the new navel gazing

    I have done my chores, been and filled up with petrol and put air in my tyres, ready for my road trip to Cornwall. It is still paining. I will make some lunch but still feel it is too early for telly.

    My weather forecast said it was dry hereimage

  • sotongeoffsotongeoff Posts: 9,802

    Have been watching wet tv pictures and there is still no change forecast-but when will a months rain in 24 hours change to 3 months rain in 24 hours or whatever -you can't have the same event twice in less than a month or use that as a measurement-so what is a month's rain if it happens twice in less than a month?-am I making sense here?

    Have you packed your wellies and a shovel?

    I think it is related to soaking rates, image

    I have an umbrella but no room for the shovel and wellies, I will be able to borrow some if I get thereimage

    Pam, very good news! I've not seen a poster in my village but I will come along anyway - am looking forward to it. Are there posters at Sainsburys? Wonder if Yvie will make it - she seems to have disappeared?

    I found a baby bird in the garden last night - it fell out of the virginia creeper into the flowerbed. Its one of the goldfinches, and the nest is deserted and the others are gone. I'm not sure if the others have flown or been got by something - another bigger bird perhaps. No sign of the parents either. This one can fly a bit but as with all babies I don't think its going to survive without its mum. Such a shame and its so sweet, it was happily sitting on my finger.

    WeeJenny - I just told them that as I work full time I don't have the time to do their washing any more. They're 19, 21 and 23 and are good at doing their washing - but not so good at hanging wet stuff up to dry!

    Wish I was at home watching tennis image

    The tennis is going Federer's way-this is good-it will soon be over
