Good morning everyone. Weather is dry, atm.

Ros, I am missing CBB too, and agree it was good to have backed the winner.

Harv is arriving this morning for daycare and I'm off to see my dad in the afternoon.

Have a good day, everyone.

 

 

Good morning everyone

 

Quite cloudy here but forecast to be dry until this evening.

 

Yogi, I'm sorry that you were poorly yesterday and hope you have a better day today

 

Morning
Overcast & windy but not too cold here.

Yogi I hope you had a good night's sleep and feel brighter this morning

How is everyone today?

We're planning an early night tonight- I fell asleep again right after my alarm went off this morning! 9pm is the target- if anyone sees me about after that, tell me off

Good morning everyone.  Yogi your tummy has a rotten sense of timing, it must be so awful that it plays up whenever you're looking forward to something you planned   Hope you feel better today and can give your Dad a big hug.  Enjoy your day with Harvey.

 

You sound like you need an early night Summer, tuck yourself up nice and snuggly really early on with one of these

          and one of these

         

Have a good day everyone

 I'll chase you if I see you around after 9pm.

Thanks El and Summer, I feel a lot better today.

Thanks Squiggle, it does have rubbish timing, but I feel better today.

 

 

Does it clear up as quick as it comes on yogi?

Thanks, I could definitely use an earlier night. I was going to have one last night but mr summer had me out videoing him for a daft dare that's doing the rounds on Facebook we then had to get back and upload it...

Usually, it lasts 24-48 hours, although it lasted for a week on one occasion.

 

The daft dare sounds intriguing.

 

Just what I was thinking Yogi - hmmmmm.....................

Yogi, I'm glad you are feeling better today

 

This morning I had a phone call from some outfit looking for an accountant for the local area for doctors. I'm always a bit doubtful about that type of phone call. Sometimes it's for an advert to go in some sort of pamphlet for patients. I think those are a waste of money for accountants to advertise in.

 

This one was for some internal publication for doctors themselves. Many doctors do need accountants as they often need to complete tax returns. But this isn't the first time I've had this type of phone call. They are always looking for an accountant to represent the local area.

 

So what happened to the accountant who used to represent the local area? Presumably they realised that it was a waste of money.

 

 I think you have got it sussed.

I agree, I think you do well to be cautious.

I agree too, well done El

The daft dares are a current trend called neknominations. If you get nominated you have to either neck a pint of something stupid, or neck a pint and do something stupid, then nominate 2 other people. It seems to have started with country lads doing daft country things. So far there's been things like people running around feeding  cattle in their underwear etc.
There's been a news story circulating today though because a couple of people took it to the extreme and have got themselves killed
The ones that aren't dangerous, can be very funny, mr summer's was tame, but very funny!

Summer, the Northern Ireland NekNomination Facebook page has been changed as a result of the fatality over the weekend.

All videos which have been posted have been removed. The page will now be to make people aware of the danger NekNomination causes particularly to younger people.

Afternoon

Just a quick visit to let you know i am still alive

Its cold here but dry for now

I know in some parts of the country the weather dire and set to get worse. I feel for my friends who are in those placed Please try to stay safe and warm

Speak again soon

Hi moonie keep warm & cosy, I hope you can come back real soon

El, it's awful what happened to that lad, I can't believe he jumped in a river! I think it'll eventually get banned from social network sites because of the dangerous ones. Surely just running around in a daft costume is much safer, and funnier, I wish everyone would keep it safe

Fankoo Sweet
You stay cosy and keep warm too when you're not taking little Bramble for walkies

I've just seen it's Groundhog Day!!!!!!!

Will do moonie, I'm a fan of knitted jumpers bramble is the best little hot water bottle substitute, well, when she's in the mood to sit near you lol

I real good foot-warmer, eh?

Absolutely
She's coming in to heat, she's very grumpy looking today
Meanwhile, my SIL has attempted to breed one of her dogs, we won't know if it's worked for about a month.

How's things at yours?

Moonie, welcome back!

Is it Stream, or one of the other dogs?

I agree, so awful to die for a daft reason like this.

 

Stay warm moonie and look after yourself

I don't know what's happened - has someone drowned?

I'm afraid so yogi, he jumped in a river

It's not stream, one of the others. Her name is Brooke, she looks like a lab but is crossed with lab/pointer, she's got the most gentle nature

Argh, I'm really stuck on a WWF game! (Scrabble) I've got some great letters but just can't place them!

 That's tragic.

 

Brooke sounds fab. I bet her pups will be gorgeous.

It's annoying when that happens in Scrabble.

I've become addicted to Word Scramble.

19 year old Jonny Byrne jumped into the river and drowned. Where he lived, what started off as a dare has become something more like cyber bullying where people are being goaded into dangerous stunts such as getting into a slurry tank or faced being accused of being a coward.

 

I completely disagree with any bullying, people shouldn't feel they have to do anything, it should all be voluntary fun.
My BIL couldn't wait to get nominated; he drove up in a daft onesie, got out and drank a beer, then nominated his friend & sister. Simple but fun. I wish everyone would keep it that way

Moonie, nice to know you are still alive and kicking

Are you any good at word scramble yogi?

I hate this kind of thing!

I'd much rather be alive and considered a coward, than deemed brave and be dead. Sadly peer pressure can be a dangerous thing.

I'm not bad. I get very cross with myself, if I get a rubbish score.

Lol I'm the same yogi, especially when playing against my very clever BIL. I've missed good words out just because they score low, I'd sooner place 2 tiles in a clever spot and get a bigger score
Baz plays scramble
