Re: Over 50's Club Scotland (part 3)

Hi spending some time with son and family in the beach side resort of Broome WA [no not Washington!] daughter went to a wedding today which was held in the open at 35C - talk about mad dogs and englishmen.

we are all waiting for the cooler days when it can drop to 25C but that won't happen for a while. We only have two seasons out here -"the wet and the dry" and I still get confused. hats, sunnies and cream blockers are the order of the day.

I remember vividly my days in UK, all the weather patterns you are describing and have written a limerick about it somewhere - will search for it - it involved an argos cooker. windy wet days with a good fire and book sound great.

Good Afternoon Each,a bright windy one here so managed to get bed stripped and washing out on the line...not easy balancing on one leg

Decided to get a taxi to Tesco Tomorrow to do a big shop and taxi back,it's such a kerfuffle to do it on-line and I do need to get out..time enough to go into hibernation mode when winter comes..see Ya all later,x

Re: Over 50's Club Scotland (part 3)

Sorry to hear that the leg/knee is playing up May. Sounds painful. Can you weight-bear on it at all ? A right bummer as you say. It's been a bright but breezy (very) day here. I was going to head to the Forest of Ae (not a typo folks) to do a recce for a hut that there's a meeting at at the end of the month. The trip never happened as I got side-tracked into doing some garden tidying. Maybe another attempt during this week. The forecast sounds good for later in the week. I love the whole "feel" to Dumfries & Galloway. A stunningly beautiful neck of the woods.

Keep taking the pills May !!

Good evening everybody. May hope the knee isn't to bad. Mike enjoy your trek to look for a hut. Had a lovely time in Arran with my niece, I treated myself to a few things at the Spa. Wind is picking up here at the moment so I hope it blows out for the morning.

Re: Over 50's Club Scotland (part 3)

Evenin' All...glad You Lassies had a good weekend,fab'...You know that garden needs tended Mike so good for You...I decided to do an on-line shop after all, as I can walk for a bit then find Myself yelping with pain,so not taking any chances ,ordered enough food to last a Month and it's just £5 delivery charge..will just have to be patient til I heal

Re: Over 50's Club Scotland (part 3)

Under the circs May, the online shopping seems a very good idea. No point in risking further pain/damage for the sake of a fiver ! Take it easy.

Re: Over 50's Club Scotland (part 3)

Afternoon Each,a bit wild n windy here (no not Me,the weather)

Made it up to the corner shop as I ran out of onions to make a cottage pie...wayhay..progress...Thanks Mike,

Gumbud I can't imagine how it would be in 35c heat...exhausting I would think..I'm comfortable around 20-22,hope You're enjoying time with Your Family.
