*night owls* you won't belieeeeeeve how much sleep I've had today! And I'm still tired

Oh no yogi that's too annoying, I hope your internet is all better by tomorrow. Sweet dreams

Night night all leaving hugs :hugs: for absent friends

night lovely yogi and summer summer - glad your fantastic achievement went well

Good morning everyone. Weather is dry atm.

My internet is still playing up, so I am posting while I can. I've checked on the Virgin website and it says there are no internet problems in my area.

Anyway, if I am not around very much today, you'll know why.

Have a good day, everyone.

 

Good morning everyone

Rain overnight here has cleared and it's now fairly sunny. Rain forecast to return late afternoon.

 

Yogi, I hope your internet problems get sorted quickly. I've checked on the Virgin forum as well and there's no mention of problems where you are.

 

My boiler is having its annual service this afternoon but I'm not expecting any nasty surprises.

 

Good morning, El. I hope all goes well with the boiler service.

My internet seems to be holding up okay at the moment. Last night and first thing this morning, it repeatedly crashed or froze and we had to keep resetting it. Sometimes, resetting it didn't work. 

Anyway, touch wood, it seems okay now.

If you've got a spare £1.75m now's your chance to buy a mountain in the Lake District:

If only I had won last weeks Euromillions jackpot.

Good morning everyone, I think we have similar weather to yours EL, I hope the boiler service goes tickety boo.

 

Isn't that mountain beautiful, I hope whoever buys it doesn't try to do anything silly like stopping walkers.  We had that down here when a new owner purchased Vixen Tor and banned walkers who had always been allowed access before.  And we had it nearer to me when new owners bought Watermouth Cove, a beautiful cove, part of the South West Coast Path and refused to let walkers use it.  They had to re-route the South West Coast Path because of it.  The owner of the mountain sounds a lovely guy doesn't he?

 

I hope your internet behaves itself today Yogi.

 

This is Watermouth Cove

 

Squiggle, that's a beautiful view. What a shame walkers can't walk there any more.

Squiggle what a shame about Vixen Tor and Watermouth Cove.

 

The mountain Blencathra is in the Lake District National Park and is also known as Saddleback made famous by Alfred Wainwright so any attempt to prevent public access would be met by considerable opposition. I've seen on another site that virtually the whole fell is open access land under the Countryside and Rights of Way Act, meaning walkers can exercise their right to roam at most times.

Blencathra is all over our local news. Fascinating stuff and of course the whole area is riddled with public rights of way.
The only problem arises when new owners regard themselves as more powerful than common law.

BTW I'm not sure it was made famous by Wainwright! People were scrambling all over it before him. Plus you can't miss it. It's totally in your face.

Apparently Lord Lonsdale, the owner of Blencathra, will be talking on the Jeremy Vine show on Radio 2 sometime betwen now and 2.

 

I would buy blencathra if I had the money I've hiked up that one

Afternoon all
Yogi I hope your internet settles today. My house phone isn't working, but my mums wasn't over the weekend too. I'll see how it is tonight and then report it if it's still off.

El I hope the boiler service went well

Squiggle that cove is beautiful! What a terrible shame people can't walk along there now

My boiler man has been and gone and no problems to report. I wasn't expecting there to be any and the boiler is only 3 years old so there shouldn't be any.

 

 That's good, El.

Apart from first thing this morning, my internet has been behaving.

How are your muscles today?

and how is squiggle's shoulder today?

 

Oh yes, sorry Squiggle, I ought to have asked about your shoulder. I hope it has eased it a bit.

No worries EL and Yogi, it certainly is a little easier today.  I took painkillers every 4 hours through the night and hope for a more restful night tonight.

 Continue to rub on the Movelat cream too. 

Evening

I too hope your shoulder is less painful today squiggle

My muscles were stiff this morning but have loosened up as the day has unfolded. Luckily for me, most of my yoga class didn't turn up so my teacher have me a tailor made session

I hope you've all had a lovely day

*wonders if yogi is having an early night*

*wonders when moonie is coming back*

I nodded off on the sofa and have just woke up.

That was good that your yoga teacher was able to alter the class to suit you.

Soon, I hope.

Hi yogi aw you must have needed a sleep!

Hi Summer.  I had broken sleep last night and I think it caught up with me.

Naturally! Will you sleep ok tonight?

I'm still feeling sleepy, so I hope so.

That's a good sign
Have you already had a bath?

Yes, I had my bath at 8.30pm, so I can climb into bed as soon as I'm ready to drop off.

Have you been having baths to ease your aching muscles?

I'm going to nod off yogi, so I had better sign off.

Hope you have a good nights sleep see you tomorrow x

I'm going now too. Goodnight Summer, sweet dreams.

Night owl hug for Ros.

Good morning everyone

 

Clouding over here, and showers are forecast. Forecast is for very unsettled weather for many days.

 

Squiggle, I hope your shoulder continues to recover, and Summer, I hope you have now fully recovered.

 

I'll be going out shortly after 9 for a tax course this morning and an accounting update course for the first half of the afternoon. There have been quite a lot of changes so the courses should be useful.

Good morning it's a bright, sunny start here.

El, good luck at the course, I hope you find it useful

Yogi I hope you slept well and feel fresh this morning, what are your plans today?

Squiggle I hope your shoulder wasn't uncomfortable in the night, and that you slept well. How does it feel this morning?

I wonder if moonie will be back today?

Good morning everyone. Weather is dark and raining.

Flying visit as I await PB's arrival.

Squiggle, I hope your shoulder is less painful today, and I hope the corse is interesting, El.

Summer, I also hope Moonie comes back soon.

Will be back tonight, see you then. 

Good morning everyone, very showery today - good for my new plants

 

I am glad the stiffness is wearing off quickly Summer.  My shoulder is definitely improving all the time - the Movelat didn't help I don't think Yogi, perhaps not suitable for that type of injury, but another night of taking pain killers but anyway it is improving.

 

I hope the two courses are interesting and useful EL.

 

Have a great day everyone
