Hi GP ,

Booze yes but mushy peas !!!! yuk, disgusting :-\

Are you there GiN, wondering if you are feeling better this afternoon ? :-)

Hi Barbs - So you are getting plenty of rain at the moment - what a shame because its an absolutely beautiful day up here. I believe the weather is going to change tomorrow so we may get the rain.

GP

Rain all day forecast here for tomorrow and we had planned a day out at Avon Valley Country Park, with g,dau and g.grandson. All the lovely weather we have had too.

Just stopped raining here now, but for how long :-

Well done you, Ant,s dad, for leaving your avatar up. You look a happy chappy.

None of us took you up on doing the same did we :-D :-D

Can anyone waft the sunshine to Liverpool

You never know Barbs the weather might just change for the better in your favour.

I'm more happier than sad these days since I retired 5 years ago - I just wish I had retired earlier as I really enjoy myself.

I'm still thinking of changing my Avatar to a more suitable one as no one took me up on my request. It would be nice to see who you are communicating with instead of using ones imagination but never mind.

GP

Mersey - NO. :-D :-D ;-)

GP

Hi-de-Hi Everyone~~~~~~~~~~ <3

Clouding over here in London now but been a super day warm but with a slight breeze.....luvverly!!!! :-D :-D :-D :-D

Hello, I'm back, and feeling more cheerful! :-D Thanks for asking, Barb.
Well it's no point in posting on here if you're a misery guts! A couple of hours playing folk rock usually sorts me out. Steeleye Span and Mumford and Son, anyone? :-D :-D

GP - imagination might be better! Well, at least Lagooner and me gave you an honest description! :-D ;-)

Has the woollie one gone AWOL :-D

No LB

Our eRRol is back in the fold, hail and hearty

:-D :-D

Hi Barb, sorry to hear your day out tomorrow has been cancelled :-( Look on the bright side it gives you more time to get in training for the 'fun rides' :-D :-D :-D :-D

Hi GiN, you most probably are getting withdrawal symptons because you not baking ;-) that's why you are feeling down :-D

GinN - I do use my imagination - I keep thinking that all you lovely ladies look like Audrey Hepburn or Alexandra Bastedo. :-D ;-)

GP

I should hold that thought GP :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D ;-)

Afternoon all. And yes it is raining, no doubt all those people who complained about the heat anre now complaining about the wet. Still it was much needed in the garden although I am sorry about your day out Barb. Is there nowhere you can all go that is undercover. Have you been to @Bristol with them? We went several years ago so don't know if it is still as good but our Grandsons thought it was great. Think you can google it.

Good afternoon Ann.

LB - Do you mean there could be deviations of my innocent thoughts. :-D :-D ;-)

GP

In your dreams, GP! But who knows, perhaps we do! ;-) :-D :-D

Londonbelle - maybe its'cos I have to do more tomorrow!

Aaaaaaahhh! Now, that's better! Just having a pre- dinner glass of French Chardonnay! Bon Sante! :-D :-D

eRRol get back here you are being talked about in a nice way may I add ;-) ;-)

GeordieN what can I do to cheer you up :-D :-D :-D

Not a problem for me, GP as I have a portrait in my attic like Dorian Gray :-D :-D :-D :-D ;-)

Would you like to hear about our early morning fright ?

What was that ? You would ? Oh ok then. Don't fall asleep half way through !

6.30 ish got up and I usually look out to our pond. OH,s hobby, Koi carp and other fishy things I dont know the name of. I thought that doesn't look right, no water fall running. All the fish big and last years babies all with their mouths up out of the water gasping for air. Ran in to wake him and it was all hell let loose.

The pump had packed up due to blanket weed wrapped round it. OH quickly put the hose on to give the fish some air while he fixed things. After a worrying wait there was only one left having trouble. Big Bertha. We rescued her some years ago from a horse trough type thingy and had out grown it. She wasn't able to move and was bent like a banana. When we put her in our pond she didn't move for some days and then only swam round in a circle.

She is still a bit bent and about 20 inches long and this morning I was really worried as she was on her side, until she started swimming again. I would have hated to have lost her after all she has been through.

There, Oi wakey wakey did you enjoy my story. If not, tough cuz I've enjoyed it

:-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D
