If I get banned, you better plead for my reinstatement!
If you get banned I'll dig up Joe Beltrami
Thanks.
PB and BB day tomorrow, so I better get off and get some sleep.
Goodnight and sweet dreams, Velvet.
Hugs for any night owls.
*night owls* good evening 
i am home safe, refreshed and well rested 
the washing machine has been very busy already, and I have been reunited with my beloved Miss Bramble
I hope you've all had a lovely week so far and that the storms haven't caused any problems in your areas
sweet dreans gang
Good morning everyone
Fairly cloudy here and a bit cooler. The storms missed my area and there's been no rain. It's not nice in the south east.
Yogi, I hope you have a good day with PB and BB 
Summer, I'm glad you are back home and reunited with Bramble
I hope everyone has a good day
Good morning everyone, breezy and cloudy here. Welcome back Yogi and Summer. Have a great day with the little treasures Yogi. Was Miss Bramble pleased to see you Summer or did she sulk because you'd left her?
Enjoy your day everyone
Good morning it's raining heavily here and apparently there was a thunderstorm in the early hours, which bramble & I must have slept through
i hope you've had a good night's sleep each, what are everyone's plans for today & the weekend ahead?
yogi I hope you have a fun day with the little ones, we'll look forward to an update on them later
Good morning everyone
Yogi, it's good to see you are home safe and enjoyed your break
I bet Keira was glad to see you again
Have a lovely day with PB and BB 
Sweet, glad you are home safe too and enjoyed you holibob
I just bet Bramble was pleased to see you
All over you like a rash, I bet
You both must have been really tired to sleep through a thunderstorm 
Hi to El, squiggle, Velvet and Joe
We have a heavy shower here currently so I shall not be venturing very far until it subsides
I have plenty of *essentials* in so no need to go out if I can't or don't want too
Have a great day everyone no matter what the weather throws at you
Summer, it may be that the thunder wasn't directly over you so it would have sounded more like rumbles rather than crashes. It looks as if the heavy rain eases away over the next hour or so for your area.
Moonie, the chances are that the weather will be better for you this afternoon if you do decide to venture outside.
Workwise, it's quite quiet at present. Seeing a client to get his signature on his tax rturn this afternoon and working on another client's accounts which are quite small and straightforward. It is the calm before the storm though as the really big job which takes weeks is imminent. May get the phone call to say they are ready today or one day next week. I know they are nearly ready.
El Rolio - is it time to receive tax returns?
I got one for the first time - wondered if it was genuine?
Saint, it's unusual to be sent a tax return which you have not requested. Were you sent a tax return through the post or have you received an email or text message?
If it's via email or text message it is likely to be a scam. HMRC have examples of such scams:
https://www.gov.uk/government/...and-customs-examples
HMRC do send genuine emails but not for tax returns. HMRC article about this without some further advice on recognising phishing scams.
https://www.gov.uk/government/...sing-phishing-emails
You could ring the HMRC self assessment help line 0300 200 3310. They would ask for yout national insurance number and/or what is called a UTR (Self assessment unique tax reference). That's a 10 digit number. If it's a genuine tax return I would expect that to be shown on the return. A warning though that it takes a long time to get through on that number.
It says, "Claim your money back through your new "Personal Tax Account"
I can claim on line by going to www.gov.uk/p800refund
OR
"If you don't claim online in the next 45 days we will send you a payable order".
Saint, It's a genuine HMRC webpage.
I would have expected you to have been sent a P800 tax calculation showing how much is to be refunded. It's not the same thing as a tax return.
You can only claim the refund back through these new "Personal Tax Accounts" if you've set up a Government Gateway account. If you haven't then you will need to go through the registration process.
Oooh ok - thank you so much
. . . and for all that effort I can tell thee i'm due the princely sum of ÂĢ29

Evening all.
I'm glad nobody in here was badly affected by the storms.
lol at Summer and Bramble sleeping through the thunderstorm.
Welcome home btw.
We had a good day with the grandchildren. BB was a happy chappy and PB enjoyed herself so much she didn't want to leave.
Good evening thanks moonie it's lovely to have you back and I hope all is well with you
yogi your day sounds like fun
saint, good luck with your tax return I've just signed mine ready to submit, apparently I'm due a rebate too! That was a pleasant surprise, but I'm not counting on it because the last one was an error and they wanted it back lol
Re the thunderstorm.. I find them so relaxing that even if I was awake, I'd have nodded off during it anyway lol and I'm very lucky that bramble isn't affected by them, or fireworks, so she didn't bark and wake me

It's better than owing them money, Sainty.

Moonie posted:Good evening peeps
It seems you ladies have had a good day
Mine has been quiet but fine
Its been cold and dry after a wet start. It's really quite a lot colder now
Evening Moonie
A quiet day sounds good to me.
There is a definite autumnal feel to the weather now.
PB was singing a song today that she had learnt at nursery, called Autumn Leaves.

Oh, was Keira glad to see you when you returned?
I'm blessed, Moonie.
Keira was very happy to see me but had been thoroughly spoilt by my mum and dad. My dad takes her on lots of walks (shorter ones now she is nearly 12) and my mum gives her little treats.

Awwww it's lovely when you have family to look after your loved one when you you are away
12? She is quite old then?
But still behaves like a puppy sometimes, I bet

It's good to have someone I trust to look after her.
Yes, she is a good age for a retriever - average age is 10-12. She has a little stiffness in her joints when she gets up after a long sleep and she can't walk as far as she used to, but otherwise she is fine.
It's funny to watch her and Harvey get together, they play fight the way they used to when they were pups but after a couple of minutes they are shattered.

Nite nite Yogi, sleep well, sweet dreams
Sorry I vanished! I'm still awake, for a change, just a lot going on; I've upset my tummy eating too much giant toblerone from the airport. Also, my brother in law has had a biking accident so my sister is keeping me updated (he's badly injured but is awake & doing ok). My cousin has split up from her boyfriend and has invited me to replace him on a skiing holiday next year 
it's also 100 sleeps until Xmas and several friends are texting me 
yogi, sweet dreams I'm glad you've had a good day. The little ones sounds fab as ever and Autumn education is a brill idea!
Moonie i I hope you've had a lovely evening, I'm sure you're looking forward to the sports tomorrow as usual
sweet at dreams hugs for you all

Moin! A cloudy start to the day. It was lovely yesterday. We rode to and around the citadel - an amazing set of buildings.
Last night it rained as it only can on the mainland.
