[chi-chi66]

this will possibly be my first and last starter of the Good Morning thread...

couldn't sleep, so I have been on a thread for most of the night.

How are you all, awaking fit and ready for the Bank Holiday.....whatever you
have planned, I hope it is a good one, not too much rain !!!
Please don't expect me around to answer a lot of your posts...
Carry on Regardless!!!! xx

[Sir Alec]

As far as I know, chi-chi is gone, can I play thee a song, madame?

[lady-janine]

good morning to everyone who comes on later. hope you all are enjoying your weekend

just looked out of the window and it is dry but expect it will pour down later. how's it looking for you?

[lady-janine]

yes please. that would be most kind of you.

how are you today Sir A?

[Sir Alec]

Waiting for that sleepy feeling.

[lady-janine]

hope it comes soon.

[Sir Alec]

I can't expect miracles. My sleep pattern at the moment is ridiculous, I can't wait for it to pass.

[lady-janine]

i do understand how you are feeling. mine is pretty much the same. it's a bummer.

[Sir Alec]

I now know how ttfn feels. I am sleeping in 10 minute to 1.5 hour intervals. The most I sleep at the moment is 3 hours, if I'm very lucky! Ridiculous.

Morning chi xxx jan xxx Alec xxx The sun is about to climb over the hilltop. It's going to be a lovely day on the canal. :o}

[waterboatman]

The secret about ridiculous sleep patterns is to not get annoyed about it. Think nice thoughts, perhaps about people you like, lovely places you've been or whatever. At least you will relaxing body and mind, almost as good as sleep. I've been doing it for years! :o}

[Sir Alec]

waterboatman, I meant to play this for your birthday, but couldn't remember who it was by..............

i try to do something quiet in the hope that it will relax me enough.

wbm - how's the shed?

[waterboatman]

Oh Alec. Thank you dear girl. xxx :o} I'm at the Heritage Centre on the canal all day today. I love it! :o}

[waterboatman]

jan, the shed is coming on nicely. We lost about three hours to heavy storms. But not a great deal left to do. I think I will have the weather on Tuesday, I hope so anyway! :o}

[waterboatman]

jan, just lie in bed with the light out and try not to think about sleep. It works for me, but then I've been practicing for years! :o}

[Sir Alec]

I went on a school trip, on a canal boat when I was 11, and loved it. I would love to do it again one day.

[lady-janine]

thanks Sir A i did enjoy that song.

years ago as a small child one of my uncles took me with his family for a canal holiday. so lovely, i can still remember most of it.

[waterboatman]

It's a lovely way to relax Alec. What part of the country are you in?
