Good morning early birds!

[waterboatman]

It's Thursday morning and it's damp and misty here in Gloucestershire this morning. It's supposed to be dry and warm today. We shall see!
Have a happy day everyone.

Only good morning to Early Birds?

[albaqwerty]

Morning folks xx

Haven't stuck my nose out yet so am in blissful ignorance of the weather.

Paul, good point. How does one greet a night owl tho? :D

[waterboatman]

Morning Kate. xxx I have indeed. I'm going away for the weekend so I will be chucking some bibs and bobs into a holdall etc. Before that I'm having lunch with friends.
Morning Paul. Early birds, night owls. I don't mind; all are welcome. :o}

[sasskins]

Morning all.

[waterboatman]

Morning alba. xxx i shouldn't bother for an hour or six if I were you. It might have brightened up a bit by then! :o}

[waterboatman]

Morning sass. xxx Welcome to the club! :o}

[sasskins]

I wish I was a waterboatman.

[waterboatman]

Do you like boats then sass?

[sasskins]

Yes - I love the water. Having said that, I can't swim very well as being IN the water scares me!

[sasskins]

There are a lot of houseboats in Preston ocks. I like to go and look at them. Best holiday I had was on a narrowboat on the River Avon.

[waterboatman]

there is nothing quite as nice as being on the water on a nice day. Speed is restricted so you have to relax, so just watch the wildlife and the countryside slip by. Wonderful.

[waterboatman]

I agree sass. It's a lovely way to unwind isn't it.

[sasskins]

It is wonderful. Like a different world.

[waterboatman]

It is a different world sass. Boat people are so friendly and always ready to lend a hand if it's needed.

[albaqwerty]

You have just described my idea of heavenly holiday.:)

Morning Boaty and all, it is quite a bit warmer out there this morning. So may be the time to start the garden off I suppose.

[sasskins]

You're very lucky wbman. I envy you. Have a good few days away. xxx

You'd be ice- bound here boatie, big up for the weathermen ....
