Re: Happy Thursday Folk
Good morning everyone. Had my second garden fence section flattened last night. One last week. I hope we don't go on a one a week series.They cost Ģ20 for delivery from Wickes. Cant carry them as they are 6 x 6foot. Take me and my son all the time to slot them into place.
What a noise the wind made last night. Cant believe that's another Hurricane we have had. Think they used to be about one every 10 years and we have now had two in the last few months and that's apart from the 3 storms a week we are having.
Good news is I did finish my big box of Thorntons chocs last few days so went to Tescos and bought myself a new one. Have to reward myself for
the lack of good weather as they do say that chocolate is good for depression. No wonder I don't get depressed with the Vodka and the chocolate
Would be silly wouldn't it
Take care all. Feeding my birds today and hope they are still there and not blown away. Have a good day all.

Re: Happy Thursday Folk
buenas dias all. Late again but I have been out all day. First met up with other friends, then I had a doctorīs appointment, goodness it was so busy at the clinic today I was over an hour late getting seen. The poor doctor looked rather stressed, she said it had been none stop since 8 a.m. Itīs been a lovely day here today, very warm and sunny, no coats or jumpers needed but once that sun goes down it gets very cold. Now I have to go out again, this time with a neighbour to go and buy some new shower taps, I promised Iīd go with her and Mr Clumsy has promised to fit them for her. Never a dull moment. I hope the weather is improving for you all in UK, it looked absolutely horrendous when we watched the news.

Re: Happy Thursday Folk
Good afternoon all, rain, hailstones, windy and cold here.Had to go to our daughter's this morning, our granddaughter hasn't been too well lately. She takes a keen interest in cooking/baking so I've started buying her the new weekly "Something Sweet" magazine as she likes experimenting with cakes and chocolates ..... and I can be her chief taster!
Just had to put the light on as it's gone very dark here - looks like another heavy storm is imminent
Stay safe and warm folks!

Re: Happy Thursday Folk
Afternoon, all. I've been very isolated since yesterday morning's hurricane. No power, no phone signal, no internet (needs power here) and a bloody great tree across my driveway so couldn't get out. Power has just come back on, thank goodness, but I guess it may go off again in the next storm. While I have no objection to supping wine by candlelight in front of the fire, I'd be happier to see the back of this weather.Thankfully, I have very good neighbours who checked on me yesterday and one has just spent three hours cutting up the felled tree so I can get out again. People can be so lovely.
