Good Morning Early Birds!

[waterboatman]

Saturday. the sky is still fairly clear, so should have some more sunshine today. If so, some weeding to be done in the front garden. The barometer is rising, so should be OK.
Have a happy day everyone.

[1ozzy]

I've been shooing the sun your way old mate, doesn't listen to me much.

Have a happy day.

morning boaty, 1ozzy.

[1ozzy]

How's Emmie?

[waterboatman]

Thanks oz! :o} We were beginning to develop gills! Just been told by yer wee man on the idiot box more rain on the way. such is life!

Morning emmie xxx How are you this morning?

[emmie]

not too bad thanks, though I can't get through the night without waking up several times, it's a nuisance

[1ozzy]

All a part of growing old dear girl.
I was thinking I might move a bed into the toilet, less stumbling about while half asleep in the dark.

[waterboatman]

I know that one too emmie. Annoying, isn't it.

[emmie]

1ozzy, my loo is quite small, and i don't have to stumble far, but i confess that this is getting ridiculous, wake at 3, then 5, on here for a while, then maybe fall asleep on the sofa, not good..

[1ozzy]

Better than falling asleep on the loo!!

[waterboatman]

emmie, try not to worry about it and it will not seem such an annoyance. Easily said I know.

[emmie]

haven't ever done that, my mum did once, she went to see a neighbour who plied her with drink, then she fell asleep wrapped around the loo, woke up eventually hours later, must have had a stinker of a hangover.

You're not a Melbourne landlord, are you, 1ozzy?

(Good morning all. I won't be around for long though. I'm just waiting for the local Co-op to open at 6, so that I can get The Times, as it's my turn to provide the crossword for our puzzle session in the pub tomorrow night. Then I'll be off to bed).

[1ozzy]

Your Mum has just achieved legendary status in my eyes Emmie.
;-)

Wish I'd met her.

Morning Birdies. Weird night out there. Full on bright moon making it nigh on daylight bright, wind roaring like a 747 on the runway and rain coming from the S.W. almost horizontal. I woke up with a ruddy headache at 5pm so got up for a cuppa and paracetamol. I never get headaches so I will be wary of it. Feels like it may be a cold coming on. Dr Scotch will cure it later. Hope you are all well.

[waterboatman]

I should say!

[1ozzy]

International students will rent anything Chris;-)

[waterboatman]

Morning chris and togo.

[emmie]

morning togo...
1ozzy, she didn't usually drink, but her friend Belle did, and i think they plied her with Scottish whisky..
my mum was lovely, people always took a shine to her
at her 85 birthday party there were loads of people there.

[emmie]

morning Chris, when do you go for your op...

[Buenchico]

Morning, Emmie. This time next Friday I'll be waiting for my taxi (which I'll book for 6.20am) to take me to the hospital. I'm booked in there at 7 o'clock.
