[waterboatman]

A late start this morning. Couldn't get a connection.

It's a very cloudy Wednesday and rain is on it's way. Wet weather gear for on the canal today then!

Have a happy day everyone.

Morning Boaty, Morning Beej - been in work for a couple of hours but didn't want to start the thread due to an anticipated early departure. Wouldn't be right to host the thread then bugger off after a couple of posts.

Morning peeps, just off to bed shortly so won't hang around!

Dull and grey out there, hoping for a lot of rain to wash the salt from the roads and from my car too! Forecast says not though, apparently.
Wonder if I'm the only one on AB to have the final remnants of snow in their garden?
Still plenty on the local mountains too.

[beejay1124]

[WELSHYORKIE]

Morning Minty and Chill - nipped in as I typed!!

[beejay1124]

[waterboatman]

Morning beej. and minty xxx

It's probably been the same all the time beej. But now we have the means to sus out all the sneaky stuff.

[WELSHYORKIE]

Chill - we've still got snow on the Carneddau above Bangor and also across Snowdonia

[ChillDoubt]

I'm over the East side Welshie, what we call mountains here are of no comparison to yours, obviously! Still plenty on Llandegla Moor too.

[WELSHYORKIE]

Mam always used to call it corned dog when I was a nipper in the 60s - maybe she knew more then than we do now!!

[waterboatman]

Morning Welshie and chill.

I see your point Welshie. how's tricks?

We've had very little snow here chill. A lot of rain though. Carol has just said that good weather is on it's way at last! I can do with some of that!

[ChillDoubt]

Mine isn't fresh stuff boaty, just the dying remains of what fell 3 weeks ago, have had none since, nor rain either.

[waterboatman]

Welshie It was always called corned dog in the army too. Later it was called Galtierie's revenge, as most of it came from Argentina.

[WELSHYORKIE]

Chill - I regularly go over the Denbigh Moors for a ride out and take in some of the magnificent scenery over there but hasten to add, I haven't been up since the snow fell!!

[Iluvspikey]

Morning Boaty, Beej, Welshie, Murray, Chill! Breakfast this morning is Gammon (smoked or plain) and eggs duck or hens, and some particularly toothsome Lashfords award winning pork with apple and leeks, or beef with guinness and mushroom sausages

[abstibus]

Morning everyone. Smee again.
Still snow here in some high areas and a road closed yesterday for fear of an avalanche.
I never thought I would hear that in Norn Iron.
Hope you're all well and happy.

[waterboatman]

Morning iluv xxx Plain gammon, ducks, pork and apple with the trimmings please. Our butcher does pork and apricot sausages. Lovely they are too.

[WELSHYORKIE]

Galtieri - now there's a name that conjures up memories relevant to recent events.

[waterboatman]

Morning Anne xxx We had a fair old bit of the White stuff when I was in Norn Iron in 1969/70 It stopped a lot of traffic for a while, We kept going though.
