Hi Sandie

SRS has just put a thread up saying she hopes our Australian cousins are okay, me too ... gosh winds of up to 55mph, beaches are closed with 20' waves.

Daphne I think was talking about the high winds yesterday, do hope she's okay. Jackie lives by the Indian Ocean, think that's a different place yet hoping Jackie, all of them are okay. xxx

Morning Shimms,

I've been up since 7, but hubby was later and I had to do the hated Sat shopping...and it's Bank hol weekend ...chaos.
I'd put a wash on and when I took it out, it had hardly spun and it looks as if 'muck' is coming thro the drum cos my pink (you'd love it ) fleece dressing gown was covered in black spots where it was pressing against the drum !
So I've had to put the load back on again and just keep my fingers crossed.

Good go Shimms quite a few right :))

the 20 Pound Bank of Scotland Note of 1969 had a S S T, Dots and D t in M C S t L , B. O. S. ( Bank of Scotland )

I've just re read it and have put in an extra little 't' , it reads better.
Think I had too many vinos last night.
I had it written down but must have missed it out.....humble sorries :))
