Good Morning Early Birds!

[waterboatman]

Thursday. Horizon to horizon cloud this morning. Not looking good. We had some heavy rain yesterday afternoon. The car needed a wash. :o} I don't think I'll be doing much outside today.

Have a happy day everyone.

Good morning waterboatman. I was going to start things off but I know my place. :-)

[waterboatman]

Morning doug. You're welcome to if you are the first about mate. :o}

I was having aggro with t'internet...again! I'll be glad when cable gets here.If it gets here that is.

How are you this morning?

[Ric.ror]

Good morning all
Hope you're all well
Big day for us - the precious babe starts big school today
She goes mornings today and then stays for lunch tomorrow then next week she's doing a whole week. There has not been a greater fuss since prince William started school and I fully expect the worlds press at the school gates!

[douglas9401]

I'm fine thanks. Up with the lark as instructed to phone the logistics company whose truck I'm meeting this morning "about sixish".
Turns out to be more like "half sevenish". Another hour in bed missed.
Never mind I can doze on the way to the frozen wastes of Fraserburgh, it's a fairly straight road apart from a sharp left in Dundee. :-D

Morning ric. xxx A landmark day indeed. I'm sure the police will be there to control the adoring crowds and keep the press at a respectable distance.

[waterboatman]

Auto pilot is a useful gadget doug. You'll be able to enjoy the scenery at least.

Morning tinks xxx How's you this morning my lovely? ;o}

[Grandma_Yiddo]

Good morning Boatie and everyone else. Only 7 more sleeps till I fly home. Off out in a moment to supermarket before it gets too hot,I walk there and taxi back. Looking forward to coming home.

[waterboatman]

Morning GY xxx We could do some of the warm sunshine here. How is himself?

[Grandma_Yiddo]

Himself is fine thank you,he'll follow me after a week or so. He'll work from home for a while and then younger son's wedding at the beginning of October.

[janbee]

Off to Tunbridge Wells today. Our visit was cancelled last week becauseof the terrible weather so we're off into the wilds of Kent this morning. I'll have a mooch around the shops while he attends to business meetings etc. Then we'll meet up for a nice lunch somewhere. Rain is to stay away...or so the weather bimbos tell us.

Better go and throw myself into the shower.


Have a lovely rain free day, early birds.


Tinks xx

[waterboatman]

That sounds like a lovely day tinks. Enjoy. xxxxx :o}

That's good news GY. And a wedding! New hat at the top of the shopping list then. :o}
