Morning all~~

Not too bad a day, bit drizzly on and off tho,but not cold.

Been to the dentist this morning, last apt.. with the hygienist !
Had to have a replacement filing on a back tooth previously, she put in a white one in rather an amalgam one and if feels rather rough by comparison..I suppose I'll get use to it.

hi there Darlington is nearly into north yorkshire so when i go to work I am going about 16 miles south ,Bishop is just off the Pennines Paula is east to me towards the coast and sunderland

Hi~~

Thanks for the explanation Maz ..will have to get my map out ;-)

Was very frosty here first thing..sun came out so I have put some shirts out on the clothes line.
Tho I never knew my maternal nan I always have a tinge of guilt doing washing or any housework on a Sunday ; For her and the family food was prepared on a Sat, nothing other than the cooking was done on a Sunday, when they attended Chapel twice sometimes 3 times,weather permitting..it was up a very steep hill the other side of the village.

There's lots of blue sky up there tho.

Hi~~~

Clear blue skies again, tho a heavy frost first thing, still lingering in the shadows.

We've had nasty frosts too since the13th.

well its wet and windy today lol

Hi~~~
Same here, glad it's not the white stuff !!

My credit card was refused at the supermarket last week. They said it was the wrong pin Number ,on 2 occasions the third day they they said my my credit card was declined.

I thought I was going nuts, my pin number for my debit card is imprinted in my brain, but when my purse got stolen we had to have new cards. My credit card has a different number now,which perhaps is safer, so I thought it maybe my fault and I was using the wrong number.

Hubby wasn't too pleased cos he thought I'd forgotten my pin number on the credit card ,when he phoned the company, to whom we pay by direct debit they said we had exceeded our limit...but hubby checks regularly and we hadn't..they had taken the money out early..He wasn't a happy bunny. I suppose it was over Xmas with 2 cards on the account we spent more and they took money early.

We haven't lost any money,cos there was sufficient monies in our credit account for me to pay with that card, and no extra charge incurred.
Some peeps get embarrassed at the checkout if there is a prob with their cards.. I knew there was no prob with mine and things like that don't bother me.. but when I got home the first time I thought , have I forgotten my PIN number ? But it is sorted now and I had the right number.!!
What a palaver !!
luv

Hi~~~

Funny weather today blue skies and white clouds now, grey and occasion drizzle earlier on ,so couldn't risk put the washing out, it's dau pj's and white tops so the wouldn't dry because of the cold .

Lost my spare set of hose keys whilst shopping yesterday :-(
Phoned the store and Police to see if they had been handed in but not as yet.
I had my main set in my bag so I was able to get in after shopping.
I took the spare set cos my main key to the front door was 'sticking'. I put the in my pocket when I locked up.. the pockets are sort of 'backwards'..it's a stormproof jacket. I had tissues in the pocket too unless I was pick-pocketed they must have fallen out when I pulled out a tissue. I am going to retrace my steps tomorrow, they are only a ring , no fob so someone may not have seen them.
Hope there's not a 3rd incident !

hellooo there its trying to snow here today ,I am on a course all day tomorrow in Stockton and have to get th eearly train so it may be a cold journey

Hi all~~

Grey and drizzly again, no sign of the white stuff thankfully.

Hope your course goes well Maz, wrap up warm :-)

You seem to have a good rail service in your area, they have recently put in a rail link to Cardiff ( the Welsh Capital) using the old closed British Steel line.
That only goes to Cardiff, but is 3 to 4 miles from me, there is one that I could travel to Cardiff or North Wales about 9 miles away.
