Good Morning Early Birds!

[waterboatman]

Friday. Well the sky looks clear at the moment. We had some what has become inevitable rain yesterday afternoon. No doubt we shall see some today.

I had a natter with LJ yesterday. She is getting better, but still has a way to go. She sends her love to all the usual suspects.

Tiggy had a good run around last night, but didn't go out of the garden.

Have a happy day everyone.

Morning WB. It's Saturday today unless you have over indulged in the cooking sherry, then who cares?
Just got back from Norfolk, the M25 was sheer nightmare, crawled for ages and ages. Coach trip for four days, my botty's a bit tender, those seats are not the comfiest.

[waterboatman]

Morning David. You spotted the deliberate mistake! :-/

I remember when I used the M25 regularly, going east. Always got there just as Concorde was coming in. Always a majestic sight. We were always at a standstill so had time to watch it.

I know what you mean about coaches. Where was/is your trip to?

[david small]

Sandringham house was one day out, very nice, weather was kind.

[waterboatman]

Good weather makes all the differences does it not. I've never been to Sandringham House. If it's anything like Osbourne House it's magnificent.

[WELSHYORKIE]

Morning Mintyxx, Morning Oz - I was stationed in Norfolk and I hated it, but that was back in 1977/78!! Going back in late August to take my sister to Yarmouth for her hols and having a couple of days there to do a little sightseeing, including my old base.

[WELSHYORKIE]

Bathurst, Oz? Isn't there a famous race held there?

[1ozzy]

Oh, and had an hour long chat with daughter dear today, well, spoke for ten and listened for 50!

[waterboatman]

No wonder you're flying oz! A family get together. Grand! :o}

Is your old base still there welshie?

[murraymints]

LOL Oz, sounds hectic

[1ozzy]

Certainly is Welshy, Bathurst 1000, also lots of other races, cars, bikes and once a year it turns into "Newtons Playground" for the gravity games, well worth attending.
