Evening all. I'm in The Island thread.
Moonie, I hope your troubles are quickly sorted and you can come back soon.
Goodnight and sweet dreams everyone.
Night owl hugs for Velvet, Summer and Ros.

Good morning El. Good morning everyone.
It's a misty start to the day up here and definitely a bit cooler than it has been recently.
I can't decide whether to wait in and see if the parcel arrives today, or go out and hope if the courier appears whilst I'm out, he leaves the parcel with a neighbour.
Have a good day everyone.
Good morning everyone, a little misty here but definitely cooler. It's been a lovely week though.
Courier companies can be irritating can't they Yogi. I like it when they choose DPD and you can track the courier's progress right to your door online, I wish they all did that.
Enjoy your day everyone
Now that you mention it, it's very slightly misty here as well.
Yogi, how frustrating. Either stay in, but the parcel won't be delivered, or go out, in which case the courier will materilaise. I agree with squiggle, it's much better when you can track progress online.
I've been running the monthly payroll for one of my clients. First month of the new tax year and I was expecting to see that something called a EPS had been submitted to HMRC to claim the ÂĢ2,000 employment allowance for 15/16 as what happened last April. An EPS wasn't submitted so I got in touch with the software support people. It turns out that once it's been submitted, it automatically gets carried forward each year, you don't have to make a claim each year. Won't mean anything to you unless you have employees and run the payroll.

Fascinating BBC clip from its Newnight programme. It's about the Chauvet cave in southern France with its prehistoric art works of animals and recreating it in a replica for the public to be able to see.

The clip being shown on the main BBC news is a shorter and less interesting version of the one on my link.
Afternoon all.
I waited in all day, so of course, the parcel hasn't arrived!
Squiggle, DPD are the best couriers, by far!
It's a lot chillier here too, Velvet. I hope that isn't summer over!
Loved the link about the cave paintings, El.
I can't see the pic, El.

It's odd how some images just don't appear in posts 
I would have liked that!
Yes, it's strange how some images just don't work.
Yogi, I'll try it from a different website to see if it works.
If you can't see it, you should see it on this link:

I can see the picture now EL - still no sign of that parcel Yogi? Poor customer service

The problem is they haven't given me an actual date for delivery, but it has been showing "despatched" for days! Tomorrow is the last day of their "delivery within 3-4 working days", so it had better appear!
PB day tomorrow, so I won't be around until evening.
Goodnight and sweet dreams everyone. Night owl hugs.
*night owls* evening all, I hope you've all had a good day
Moonie I hope your issues are resolved in a way that suits all concerned and that you're soon bwck with us
Velvet, glad you're back, shake it off and stick in with us,
So, my car broke yesterday! The suspension, spring & shock absorber all went bang on the same time Bramble and I both jumped out of our seats but no injuries were caused. It's been hassle, but all is now fixed and I have my car back. I have reluctantly concluded that it's time to look for a new one.
I'm heading to bed, I hope to see you all tomorrow

Good morning everyone
Fiarly cloudy here, some rain expected later. Last day when temperature is above average for the time being.
Summer, that was an unpleasant shock I'm glad you and Bramble weren't hurt. I think you are right in thinking it's time to get a newer/new car.

Cloudy and looking cool outside. Rain predicted for later 
Have a good Buddies
Well put moonie I am glad you and Bramble weren't hurt Summer.
A bit of a grey morning and a really cold wind, disappointing to be back in what feels like winter.
Have a good PB day Yogi, I am off later to pick up my eldest grandson and his family - including baby 
so I am looking forward to that.
Enjoy your day everyone
Back from M&S with a few of their new products from their food range.
A box of 2 Timperley rhubarb & lemon swirl desserts.
An individual gooseberry eton mess fool
and a blackcurrant fool cake.
I won't be eating all of them at once
Nice to see you Moonie
I hope Yogi and squiggle have good days with PB and family

Probably quite wise El 
Thank you
Yep, best wishes for a happy day to Yogi and Squiggle from me too
I doubt if many of us have ever heard of Edwin Beard Budding who lived in Stroud. But next time you cut your grass:

I had one of those rhubarb & lemon swirl desserts. I hadn't realised that the box came with a sachet of rhubarb sauce which is intended to be poured over the dessert. It would be very tricky to do that at two different times so today I had one without the sauce and tomorrow with. So it's really intended for 2 people rather than for 1 person over 2 days.
Evening all.
Summer, I'm glad you and Bramble were only shaken up and not hurt.
Good luck with the car hunting.
Moonie, good to see you back with us.
El, sorry about Cheltenham's relegation.
Squiggle, I hope you have had a fab day with your family and lots of cuddles with the baby.
Velvet, I hope you've had a good day with the Boss and Dolly.
We had a great day with PB. What a little character she is - full of fun and mischief, but also very loving and generous.
Off for a bath, then bed. Goodnight and sweet dreams everyone.
Night owl hugs for Velvet, Summer, Moonie and Ros.

Good morning it was supposed to be raining but it's a glorious sunny day outside
I've got a mountain of things to do today so I'm going to get started early *rolls up sleeves*
Yogi, what are pb's latest adventures?
Squiggle, how was the baby?
El, sorry about Cheltenham's relegation, what happens next for the team?

Good morning everyone.
The sun is shining atm but I can see some grey clouds heading this way.
Sounds like you have a busy day ahead, Summer. I'm hoping for a relaxing one!
We bought PB a little play tent which we put up in the house because the grass was damp. She took all her dolls, teddies and soft toys in with her, and didn't want to come out when it was time to go home!
Have a good day everyone.
Good morning everyone
Grey weather here and cooler.
Yogi, I'm glad you had a good day with PB
Summer, I hope your mountain is ascended withoot mishap
Cheltenham Town will have to cut back on its costs as its income will fall being in the Conderence rather than league 2. It has appointed a temporary manager to the end of the season so he won't stay. The big question is will they be able to survive in the Conference or go bust as what happened to Hereford FC.
I had that gooseberry eton mess fool last night. It's nice but too sickly for my taste (I knew it was a risk for me as I find lemon meringue pie too sickly).
