It's a bit too far away to get to though without a starship or Tardis, and rather on the hot side plus sun cream factor 1000000 would be required

No chance of a droid with a camera reaching it any time soon then..?

Not unless someone invents something like a tachyon transmitting device. Then such a device would have to transmit a replica of itself with the droid and the camera so that the camera could return here with the photographs. Apart from this being science fiction at this time, such a concept would work, Another method is using portals as in things like Stargate. The problem there is that it requires there to be a wormhole in existence between here and the destination. Even if that concept was workable, the likelyhood of such a wormhole is near-nonexistent so the tachyon transmitting device is more possible. There's just one tiny problem though, Tachyons (which are particles which travel faster than the speed of light) are at this time theoretical and not yet proven.

 

It seems that people have been looking after bees for their honey for some 9000 years:

night everybodyand summer if you pop in

wow El that is fascinating love bees

Good morning everyone

 

Wet and windy here at present but nothing like what's hitting the north.

 

I hope everyone has a good day and take care if the weather's bad where you are and you have to go out.

 

Good morning everyone, wet and windy here too, same for tomorrow too

 

I hope everyone manages to stay dry, enjoy your day everyone

Good morning everyone.

 

Sorry you are all having such rotten weather.  I'll be back on Sunday night to suffer along with you.

I've enjoyed the sun and heat out here but, due to my meds, I've had to slap on Factor 50 and I'm still milk bottle white.

 

Keep my seat warm in the Buddies as I'll soon be back with you.

Have a good day everyone.

Good morning Yogi

 

We're keeping your seat warm for your return

 

I'm glad you've been enjoying the sun and heat there

For anyone interested in the Bronte sisters, some unpublished bits of work by Charlotte has been found:

Good morning it's sunny here but we had a storm during the night and I had to wrap up in my waterproofs to walk Bramble this morning.

Loved the bee story, I love them and their honey

I like the bronte sisters, I'll read the story next El

Yogi I'm pleased to hear the weather is so good

Summer, I think many of us have had bad weather today. The rain stopped here some time ago and there's some sunshine but ir's windy and cooler than the last few days,

 

Wow, that's incredible how they found Maria Bronte's belongings! The museum must be delighted at the recent finds

El, it's an icy wind here, it feels wintery

Summer, there's some snow further north so I'm not surprised it feels wintery for you.

 

My brother will be arriving in a while for a weekend visit so I won't be around here much. It's a M&S chocolate fudge cake.

This isn't a picture of it but it should keep you going

My brother has arrived. There were a lot of cancelled trains between London and Reading but he managed to get here on time. It seems that the cause was that someone has been hit by a train between Slough and Reading

 

I hope everyone has a good weekend

I am glad your brother managed to get there EL, have a great weekend.  The cake looks totally delicious.  The weather cleared up amazingly this afternoon by I don't think we're going to be so lucky tomorrow. 

 

PS  Awful news about someone getting hit by the train

Thanks squiggle

El, I'm very pleased your brother arrived and I hope you enjoy your cake this weekend, have a lovely time together

Leaving goodnight hugs for all and strong prayers for Paris

night everybody El have  a lovely weekend with your brother

Horrific news from Paris

 

It's going to be a rainy and windy day here.

 

I hope everyone is able to have a good weekend

Good morning everyone, very similar weather to yours EL.  I hope you and your brother have an enjoyable weekend.

 

Dreadful dreadful news from Paris, innocent people just preparing for a weekend, it makes your heart so sad.

 

I would normally say enjoy your day everyone, but...................

 

Afternoon I hope you're all warm, well and dry back later

Afternoon everyone.

 

We have BBC and Sky News channels in the villa and watched in shock as the terrible situation in France unfolded last night. 

Those poor people, may they rest in peace.

 

Will be home tomorrow night, take care everyone.

Squiggle, a very thoughtful prayer

 

Yogi, I hope your journey home is smooth running

 

We bought a couple of those new M&S puddings to try out this weekend. Today's was quite pleasant and a bit unusual - honeyed sponge with figs.

Evening my working day is finished and now the weekend begins

Yogi, have a safe journey home, we're glad you've had a good break but we're also glad you're coming home too

El, did that pudding come with any sauce or custard?

night yogi -will be lovely to have  you back summer and everybody

hope you had  a lovely weekend with your brother

Good morning everyone

 

Very cloudy and windy here but may stay dry. It may be getting colder by next weekend for a week or so. May be frosty and snow on higher ground further north.

 

Summer, the pudding didn't come with any custard. The figs are juicy in the pudding in a sort of syrup. I'm sure people would have custard with it but it's quite filling as it is.

 

Thanks everyone , I'm having a pleasant weekend with my brother

Good morning everyone, a very wild, windy and wet night.  I hope everyone is OK and there is no damage to property.

 

I am glad your weekend is going so well EL and that you and your brother are having a good time and enjoying some delicious food.

 

Enjoy your day everyone

Good afternoon it's mild here so I've been out walking for hours! I hope you've each got milder weather compared to last night too

El, I've not stopped thinking about desserts all weekend

As squiggle says it was a wild and windy night here as well. No damage here though some small branches had come off trees in the roads but nothing significant.

 

I've dropped my brother off at the station. The pudding we had was another new M&S one. A sponge with pineapple and ginger and this one came with some custard to pour over. Very nice and one to try provided you like pineapple and ginger.

 

 

The service at church this morning was of course strongly influenced by what happened in Paris. A cross covered with poppies made by children from local schools had been made for Remembrance Sunday last week and that was retained for the service. Candles were lit during the service and the congregation were invited to light a small candle at the devotional candle stand when they took communion.

The vicar's address ended with this quote from Martin Luther King.

“Darkness cannot drive out darkness: only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate: only love can do that.”

The wanderer has returned.

Catching up with to ight's IAC - if I stay awake long enough!

Catch up with everyone tomorrow.

awww lovely to have you back  yogi summer if you pop in

Good morning everyone

 

Weather OK here, breezy, some blue sky and clouds. Forecast to be rain tonight and damp tomorrow.

 

My brother got back to London on time. He's going to see a friend in the Greater Manchester area today for a few days. Hopefully there won't be much travel disruption due to the flooding in NW England.

 

Yogi, welcome back wanderer

Good morning all and welcome back yogi! how was your holiday?

El, the service yesterday sounds very thoughtful and I hope the world remembers Martin Luther kings words.
I love ginger and pineapple so that dessert is on my wish list

Good morning everyone, I am glad your brother got home safely EL and I hope he will be able to travel without problems today.

 

Nice to have you back with us Yogi, I am glad your holiday was a good one

 

I am not keen on ginger although I do love pineapple so I don't think that dessert would be for me.

 

Enjoy your day everyone

Summer, that service was very thoughtful and would have been similar to many church services around thw world

 

I though that dessert might go on your wish list. It's gingerbread sponge rather than pieces of ginger.

Squiggle, thank you
