Good Morning Early Birds

[emmie]

morning everyone, i hope you are all well and that you have a good day whatever
you have planned. I am off to meet friends later for a drink, though the weather forecast isn't so good, so it might be a case of sitting inside. it will be good to get out after what has been a dull and rainy old week.

[emmie]

the few chores are done, so i can spend time relaxing. A relative is going to call me this morning, we haven't spoken in a while, so that will be good, then i can get ready to meet up with friends at 2pm, its only a short walk round to the local, though enough to get wet if it rains.

[emmie]

i hope boaty is getting on ok. I miss him on our early morning chats.
mind you he deserved a rest - after all he's been doing the thread for a long time now.

morning Johnny

[emmie]

it is at the moment Johnny, its quite lovely, blue sky and not too cold

[johnny.5]

yes it is emmie
but wind and rain coming in and looks like it will be here all week
: (

[emmie]

that's our forecast for today and the rest of the week, what a nuisance this is, spring seems to have disappeared

Morning both of you - looking very grey out there but still dry - not for long me fears. Seeing a friend for coffee mid-morning and before Falmouth closes down this coming week. The Bomb Squad are already around and started inspecting boats.

morning Dtc

[emmie]

its madness Dtc, this summit doesn't start yet, 11-13th June i think?
why are they shutting everything down.

[emmie]

will you be able to get around whilst this is on dtc, why on earth didn't they hold it in London, or Manchester perhaps

[DTCwordfan]

I have no idea.... For example as of tomorrow, I will need to carry two forms of Id and an invoice to see my mother - and I'll probably have to show them a letter from the Home or my phone with the number.....and all we will have is the Press Centre albeit with 400 drunk hacks running around, the National Maritime Museum being the base. The café we use is right in front and the owner (who has 3 eateries in a row) is being paid generously to close down as the public is not to be allowed in the Plaza. He's thinking of opening one or two of the outlets as with 400 fat expense account wallets wandering around looking for food..... There's also a thousand police coming in and they'll be housed on a cruise-ship - now there's a target for a bomb or missile....

I gather we came last in the Eurovision - Love it - well done, mate, whatever his name was.

[DTCwordfan]

If you want to protest the nearest legit sites are in Plymouth on the Hoe (and there's a lot of folk protesting against that) or a field near Exeter....both over 75 miles from here!

[emmie]

heavens sake, housing the police on a ship, asking for trouble.
I guess its only three days, but i looks like you will be off limits from now. who carries around 2 forms of ID.?

[emmie]

James Newman was our Eurovision entrant, nil points again.

[DTCwordfan]

yep - but I guess that they are worried about security - I can understand the cars and boats being checked. However, the Press Centre here is a 45 minute drive or 25 miles by chopper. I can't see Yoshihide Suga, Macron, Biden, Trudy, Ursula Undress, Mario in-Drag, Auntie Merkel or Boris coming across from St Ives - the journos will go to the mountain. All we'll get are the lesser species coming the other way....

We just aren't set up for it.

[paddywak]

Good morning everybody.

[emmie]

morning Paddy

[emmie]

no you most definitely aren't set up for it.

[DTCwordfan]

And not exactly helping the country as to the holiday season with all these Brits wanting to stay and vacate in the UK.
