I prefer our nearest Morrisons to Asda and Tesco and I'm not keen on Aldi or Lidl stores. I like Sainsburys and M&S too. I'm actually quite spolit for choice with a lot of supermarkets within driving distance.

Hi velvet, would you believe we don't have a Morrisons?  We are behind the times down here Lovely to have your freezers full of bargains. Hope you are well

Yes I'm fine thanks velvet I'm a great believer in common sense and a good sense of smell, I don't tend to rely too much on sell-by dates.  Sounds like you got some good bargains wow 90% off that's certainly worth having.

90% off, that's some bargain

Having an early night, goodnight and sweet dreams everyone.

Leaving night owl hugs for Velvet and Summer. 

*night owls*

Oh I love "market street" in morrisons! I like m&s, tesco's & sainsburys too. Most of all, I like eating

Sweet dreams yogi, enjoy your early night

I hope moonie feels better tonight

Good morning everyone.

 

Weather is rainy and the sky is still dark.

 

No plans for today, except housework and cleaning out the fishtank.

 

Have a good day everyone.

 

Good morning everyone

 

Fair weather here at present but showers later on.

 

Yogi, good luck with the fish tank. I hope it passes the fish police inspection

 

I hope Moonie is feeling better today

 

Summer, you like eating ! Surprise, surprise

Good morning all

A foggy start here this morning, but very mild

Good morning everyone, we've been very lucky with the weather again, I don't think we got a drop of rain yesterday after all.

 

I love the pic of the fish police I am sure your fish tank will pass inspection with flying colours Yogi

 

Enjoy your Friday everyone

I think this is a great photo

 

Headline on a BBC science article yesterday:

 

Death Star moon may be 'wonky or watery'

 

I hadn't realised that wonky is a scientific word 

(the article is less striking:

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/scie...environment-29613671

 

Ooh a wonky moon I like the phrase it librates.

 

Aww I couldn't resist posting this one

 

Cute picture, squiggle

 

Librate in astronomic terms means that the object looks as if it wobbles from side to side. Our moon does as well as shown in this time lapse picture:

That's fascinating about the moon I had no idea.
I always watch the moon, I love being able to see it.

Great picture squiggle, that's so cute

Hi all, bit of a flying visit for now, i have an hospital apt at 2pm so will need to get my skates on. 
Couldnt get on yesterday. Schools hols here and had GD booked into a holiday club but unfortunately it was closed due to some plumbing problems so we went out for the day and was too tired by the time we got back. 
Hope you all well, and hopefully will catch up later today or tomorrow. 
Take care all 

Summer, I think that libration shown on the moon picture is only apparent to us as we are seeing it in time lapse photography. We wouldn't notice it in real time.

 

Skylark, I hope the hospital appointment goes well. I hope you enjoyed the unintended day out yesterday

Me too.

 

Thank goodness we can't see the libration EL, I think that could be alarming.

 I need to show that to middle son when he visits tomorrow.

I hope the hospital appointment goes well, I'm thinking of you.

So now we know why the sudden panic to clean the fish tank

I see that a version of Monopoly using places in Cheltenham has been launched today.

I wonder what they have selected for the jail

 

Hi skylark good luck at the hospital, I hope all goes well and you can relax later

El, I like specialist monopoly boards we have a Star Wars one

 I haven't played Monopoly for ages.

On the box cover of the Cheltenham Monopoly is a picture of the clock in the Regents Arcade.

The clock is watched with fascination by young children who are in the arcade.

Here's a 2 minute clip of the clock and watch all the way through to see what happens. Best seen full screen.

PB would love the clock in Cheltenham

 

What a brilliant clock! You are right, El, PB would love it.

What an enchanting clock, it made me smile.  Will you show this clip to PB Yogi? I'd love to see her face as she watches it Thank you for posting that EL

I'll show her the clip when she's here tomorrow.

 Hello Pirate.

All is good, thanks Pirate. How are things with you?

Rebooting your brain is a bit drastic, make sure you make a back up before you do.

Velvet, I hope you enjoy your fish pie and have a good weekend
