Good Morning Early Birds!

[waterboatman]

Monday. sorry it's so late, someone at the power station for got to put a shilling in the meter, we've only just got power back. What time it went off I have no idea. I've been doing the rounds of resetting everything. It's amazing how many electrical gadgets and appliances that need resetting isn't it!

I had an easy day yesterday. Did a temporary repair to the storm damage on the shed roof, that took all of twenty minutes, but I must get a couple of bits today to make it a permanent job, about half an hour should see the job done.

Tiggy was out, had his supper and went back to bed, although he did enjoy some sunshine while I was out the back with a beer and a book.

Just the afore mentioned repair today, at the moment anyway.

Have a happy day everyone.

[DTCwordfan]

Morning all, dry here for the moment...

Have you been affected, boaty, by all this carnage on the M5, not that far from you?

I said to a mate yesterday, "My wife says that I am insane."
He said, "You are, mate - you aren't married."

Morning all, nothing planned today other than taking the hounds out so a lady of leisure, may do some batch cooking and fill up the new freezer ready for winter or may just hunker down and watch some of the hours of recordings I have.

Morning Islay....bought one of your scotches yesterday, an Ardbeg....

[Islay]

oooo so did I a Bruichladdich Port Charlotte for my father's birthday.
We are going in November - cannot wait.
What did you think of it?

[waterboatman]

Morning DT. No, not personally affected by that tragedy. My heart goes out the victims and others affected by it. The M5 remains closed still, which, as a knock on effect, is causing chaos on the A38 south. That's a very busy section of road, also the minor roads are also very busy, which has it's own chaos.

[DTCwordfan]

Haven't tried it yet, just finishing off a Strathisla....which I quite like - but could be a little peatier given its origins.

[DTCwordfan]

(not at the very moment though!).

[DTCwordfan]

yes I thought the roads around would be pure chaos....

[Islay]

If you like peaty try a port charlotte very heavily peated

[waterboatman]

I'm avoiding the area. I hope it will be sorted by the weekend, I have to go to Thornbury on Saturday.
