Good Morning Early Birds!

[waterboatman]

Friday. Well the wind has died down a lot, so I'll be putting the bins and everything else that went walkabout back in place, that's a good part of the morning sorted!

A lot cooler this morning, 4.2°C. A big drop from yesterday. Still overcast.

No meetings today. I'll take a wee trip to Wotton-under-Edge to my favourite wee shop.

Have a happy day everyone.

Morning, WBM. I've never been to Wootton.

Morning gl and NM xxx

It's a lovely wee market town right under the edge of the Cotswold Escarpment, hence it's name.

The main shopping street is right out of history, one way traffic, lots of wee shops including four bakeries, all of whom do a roaring trade as each has it's own specialities. my favourite is an organic food shop. It's always busy.

[NoMercy]

That sounds so idyllic. I might think about a Saturday day trip there xxx

[waterboatman]

I'm sure you'll love it NM. Let me know and we could have a coffee. It has the oldest cinema in the country too, and an internationally renown auction house in an old Methodist chapel.

G'marnin' moi luvlees!

[waterboatman]

Morning alec. How are you this morning? Any better?

[GenuineclAss]

A fair bit of hip gyp, been up a while trying to work it off, no joy so far. Ne' mind eh? Hopefully the Gab' will help.

[waterboatman]

We'll do our best moi 'ansum. xxx

[GenuineclAss]

A-har! A-har!

a-ha......................(Who let Morten Harcket in?)


Jim lad!

[waterboatman]

:o} 'e do be 'idin in t'corner.

[GenuineclAss]

Is he singin'? Always thought he must have very tight trousers to hit those incredibly high notes!

[waterboatman]

Yes, if he's got anything in the trousers! ;o}

[GenuineclAss]

He was a real heart-throb in the day. Wonder what he looks like now? Last time I saw him was in a skit on country markets, being expensive, by Armstrong & Miller. It was very funny, as they obviously couldn't find a rhyme for market, except for Harcket, and there he was on one of the stalls! Must be a good sport to do it, I suppose, but then perhaps he was paid well?!

all wind away here now too-- our metropolis didn't do too bad y'day --- tho a few miles away got it worser - so they did

[waterboatman]

Morning beej. No damage here, but a lot of things went walkabout.

How are you mate?

[GenuineclAss]

Morning BJ!

(Just saw what Murdo wrote on Heart's 'Alone', on Mamya's thread and it has made my skin crawl, knowing who he is)
Off for a move around to try and remedy the hip, back in a mo'....

[waterboatman]

See you shortly alec xxx

[waterboatman]

No wind and the sky is clear, just some whispy cloud along the hilltop.

[GenuineclAss]

That's a lot better! Oh dear, I thought BJ would keep you company whilst I was gone. Never mind!
Don't know if this will work, but A-ha! (pun intended), Eureka!
