The BBC news suggests that building snowmen will help prevent floods, so I hope you all going to be out there doing your bit
Cold here this morning, but as Gary says, it should be the last really cold day for a while. I hope so. I have got a friend coming tomorrow to stay overnight from Nottingham, just hope she can make it as we are having a friends and family get together for my birthday and are all going out for a meal to the pub in the next village. Nephew coming from London, but expect trains will be OK
Lots to do today, puddings to make for tomorrow evening, just having starters and mains at pub, then back here for puds, cheese and biscuits, and drinks I will be thinking of Bjay as she is doing the same thing.
What have I let myself in for.
Hope you all have a nice day and a belated welcome to all our new forkers
For those following my glittering stage career I have to report that I made an unscheduled appearance last night Stage Manager opened curtains while we were still scene shifting and I had to get off quick. Unfortunately a snow-drift (wooden not water-based) barred my way and in my haste to get past I tripped over, fell on it and damaged it. The rest of the crew said it was hilarious The local press were in to review the show
Slept wonderfully until guess what? The boiler started with it's morse code whistle, then got more persistant, so I stomped into bathroom to sort it out, before coming down to make cuppas etc.
Got beaten to bathroom by others so am now up, plus 2cnd coffee of day, still not dressed, but need to go out to birds, compost bin & a wheely bin, which is kept around the front side of house- not ideal in dresssing gown.
Flo-golden rule of playing-do not bump into the scenery
Sasha nice to see you again -the search has been called off
Morning everybody else now-but Jo do us all a favour- get this bloody boiler fixed-cant take much more of this before I come up there and blow the flippin thing up.

Night Inka. Morning Sasha, Bunny and Gary.

Oh Flo,
Sorry for laughing. That sounds hilarious ! Hope you didn't hurt yourself.
We have a famous forker.
Just a scraped leg and a bruised knee. I'm just hoping the reviewer will tactfully ignore my efforts
Jean, it was. I laughed as well once I got off the snowdrift.
Tennis on Andy M won first Set
Must get up
Morning all.
