Good Morning Early Birds!

[waterboatman]

Tuesday. Lots of stars out to play this morning. A wee bit nippy with a gentle breeze. That'll do me nicely, I'm away at eight, off the The Museum of Army flying at Middle Wallop. Got to pick my companion up on the way.

Tiggy is still about, he doesn't like all the rain we've had, but he's happily rootling about at the moment.

Have a happy day everyone.

Morning waterman!
Another day begins ....

[waterboatman]

Morning lina xxx Indeed it does.

How are you this morning?

[Eleena]

Great waterman :0)
Any damage down there with the winds?

[waterboatman]

Not around here, all we had was some rain, a bit of breeze, the sky had a yellow tinge early on, but it cleared up nicely.

[Eleena]

Yeah, just a bit breezy here too, we've been lucky, unlike some. O.k, got to go, have a good day!! ;0)

[waterboatman]

Have a happy day lina xxxxx

Hi and bye Eleena, hope you have a good day.

Morning Boaty, must admit Middle Wallop sounds rather interesting.
Must be after the first wallop and before the last ;-/

[waterboatman]

Start again.

G'day cobber. It origins go back to medieval days, What it means I can't remember off hand. It's where the Army Air Corps is based. I knew it quite well back in the 60's.

And people say us Aussies have strange place names.
Like Pitt Town Bottoms ;-)

[waterboatman]

There's one near me called Waterly Bottom. :o} it's at the end of a narrow lane. It has a nice pub though.

[waterboatman]

One of the joys of the pub is that it has no mobile phone signal. :o}

[1ozzy]

Watery Bottoms?, thought it may have had a curry shop.

[waterboatman]

Not quite. :o}

It is in a hollow with three hundred foot hills all around it.

[1ozzy]

Just had a rather large Blue Tongue Lizard wander in.
Put some food down for him/her, hope it hangs around like Cheeky the King Parrot.

Love having wildlife visit.

[waterboatman]

That could be the downsideupland equivalent of Tiggy! :o}

[1ozzy]

Not quite, we used to have an Echidna visit, that was many moons ago.

Years back a Blue Tongue used to visit and if I wasn't aware it used to nibble my toe, "Hey Oz, where's the food".

[waterboatman]

Wonderful! :o} I love wildlife too. Lots of it around here!

[1ozzy]

"hfnfvyu" may need to meet the "mighty 'ammer"

[waterboatman]

I'm waiting for the ad. I'm on it. ;o}
