morning all xx

[janbee]

Here I am, all on my Todd again. Where is everyone?

[waterboatman]

Yur oi d'be! :o}

Morning tinks. xxx It's a soggy morning, so it is. How are you my lovely?

[janbee]

Hi Boaty xx

[janbee]

No rain here as yet, but it's on it's way.

[janbee]

Brought you all back a stick of IOW rock to play havoc with your teeth.

[waterboatman]

I haven't ventured out yet, but there is no frost and no air movement.

I'm out to lunch today, so I'l be happy if it doesn't get any worse.

[janbee]

All quite calm here . Been a very mild November so far and still haven't needed the heating on. No doubt that will all change as we go into December.

[waterboatman]

Not just your teeth rock plays havoc with! :o}

I've had to have my heating on for some time. Nothing dries else. Also it keeps the old bones happy.

[waterboatman]

But yes, it has been a remarkable Autumn. If this is the worst we get I'll be happy.

[janbee]

No great plans today. Just reeeeelaaaxing.... Also trying to avoid all the saddos fighting for bargains in the Black Friday places.

[waterboatman]

Don't blame you. Disgraceful behaviour. Another obnoxious American import.

[janbee]

After all the fights and violence at last years BF, I thought the shops would've maybe givven up on that silly scheme. Seems not thogh. All the local shops have BF signs in their windows, even Primark and QS. Can their prices get any cheaper?

[janbee]

I suppose grockles need to stock up on items to wear when they swarm into this town for hen weekends/stag weekends/SAGA tours/mystery tours from Loondon. When the bus is hurtling down the M23 at full speed, it's no mystery .. it can only be going to Brighton.

[waterboatman]

Common sense is a rare commodity these days.

I remember as a wee sprog in Leicestershire going on a mystery coach tour organised by the by the regiment for the married families, using an army coach. It was a mystery right enough, the coach broke down in the middle of nowhere! We all had to make our own way home.

[janbee]

I remember my late granny going on a mystery tour in Scotland. All they were told was "we're going to a park". well... they ended up at a safari park and with wild animals and monkeys etc all roaming around the bus, many of the poor old folks had... to put it delicately,... bowel movements. That was a long smelly journey back to Edinburgh that night. Bet the coach company never did that trip again without warning them all first.

[janbee]

The rain is forecast to be here before 9 so I better get out early and have a nice dry walk along the seafront before the heavens open.

[janbee]

Really need to get out into the garden to do a last tidy up of the year. Lots of leaves and weeds everywhere.

[janbee]

BTW, I STILL haven't lopped off that branch. I've been threatening it by giving it evil looks for many weeks now. Maybe one day soon, I'll attack it.

[janbee]

It would've been my Mum's birthday today so I hope wherever she is, she's getting wellied into a nice big glass of Baileys or a large single malt.

[waterboatman]

I've just had to reboot. :o{

Happy birthday to your mum tinks.

What an idiotic idea to take a coach load of elderly folk to a safari park without telling them! Asking for trouble.
