Good Morning Early Birds!

[waterboatman]

Wednesday. It's piddling moggies and mutts, but there is no air movement.

Hopefully today is the last day of the kitchen renovation. Just the floor to do. I don't know how long it will take as they are laying tiles.

I must say though, that I have the highest praise for the standard of workmanship and the cleanliness when each team has finished. I will be emailing their boss to say so too.

Then I can get back to whatever passes for normal. I'm going stir crazy having to be in all day.

Have a happy day everyone.

I'm planning a couple of dinner parties. Always good fun.

The wind is getting up and making it's presence known now.

[WELSHYORKIE]

Winter's last fling...I hope!

[WELSHYORKIE]

I bloody hope so - i'm away for a few days weekend after this, although if England get beaten by Wales on Saturday, I might go into hiding......

[waterboatman]

There should be three good games this weekend.

Where are you off to, anywhere special?

[TonyV]

Morning folks don't think winter has done yet WBM

[waterboatman]

Morning Tony. I don't think do either. Wishful thinking. :o}

How are you mate?

[WELSHYORKIE]

We're going up to Northumberland for a long weekend to visit Bamburgh Castle, Lindisfarne and the like and basically just chill out - we've both been working very long hours recently and need a few days R&R. That and the fact it's my 60th on Sunday week

[TonyV]

Not to bad thanks - where about you based?

[WELSHYORKIE]

Morning Tony

[waterboatman]

That sounds good to me mate. I just know you both will enjoy the break. Much needed methinks.

[TonyV]

Now that does sound like a plan Welsh

[TonyV]

Morning Welshy

[WELSHYORKIE]

Got to look for a nice restaurant, preferably seafood up on the coast to celebrate, so i'll be on AB later asking for recommendations!

[waterboatman]
