Re: Happy Wednesday Folk.

Good morning fellow members a strange morning here with mist sitting over the flooded fields and still mud everywhere after a night of rain .

I need to tidy Chloe a bit but the prospect of standing in the cold garage for anything more than five minutes doesn't appeal.

At least things are moving with my sons new house in spite of the rain and mud the demolition men are getting on with removing the old house at last. My son has installed cameras to follow the progress..



Enjoy your day everyone

Re: Happy Wednesday Folk.

Looks like a nice plot Meg, although I hope it isn't riverside... Best of luck to your son on his grand project, I hope all goes well for him.

Re: Happy Wednesday Folk.

Morning all.

Patsy, hope you feel better soon.

Barry, my Council have confirmed that yes, they ARE going ahead with plans to demolish and rebuild our raised beds (those that are damaged/worn/falling apart), but ATM don't have an idea when. The manager was hoping to give me a decision by the end of next week, so I can't do anything on my allotment till I get their final answer. Feel I'm in limbo. Could do with the exercise, but how much damage would they do when rebuilding, as I still have the ground bit, with my rose bush, damson tree and fruit bushes?

Scary thought, as we've seen what happens when third party companies set foot on our site!!!!!

Re: Happy Wednesday Folk.

Thanks Barry it is on a hill and set in two acres overlooking an AONB, so getting planning permission has been a nightmare and every detail scrutinised including the design and materials used.
The new house will look like a barn conversion and should be very efficient to run .

Re: Happy Wednesday Folk.

Well I've made it in time to say Good Morning today! The day has started well, with clear skies, a touch of coolness in the air and the Tesco delivery arrived, unloaded and packed away all by ten past nine. We await the arrival of the gas man, who needs to change the cylinder in the airing cupboard - hopefully not too huge a project. It sounds like a good excuse to go out for a coffee though, once he is in and settled.

Hope everyone has a good day and that the country continues to dry up a little

Re: Happy Wednesday Folk.

buenas dias all. Sunny and colder indoors than outdoors. It´s another holiday here today and so far no plans, I hope it stays that way. We didn´t go to see any procession last night, too cold and too lazy. I heard on the radio yesterday that December was the wettest month in England since 1909(might have got the date wrong but I think that´s what I heard). I´m sure your son´s house will be lovely when finished Meg, I hope all goes well with it. Have a nice day all.

Re: Happy Wednesday Folk.

Good morning,
Lovely pic again Alan thanks.
I've got one of my daughter's for lunch today, which will be lovely. Looking after a couple of grandsons later.

Re: Happy Wednesday Folk.

Go for that walk, Alan. Its good for you !

Re: Happy Wednesday Folk.

Good morning

Re: Happy Wednesday Folk.

We go walking 2/3 times a week Painter but only short walks these days. Still, at the ripe old age of 82, a short walk is better than no walk at all!
