Good morning everyone  

We had early sunshine. Quite a breeze and on the colder side of cool 

Sunshine and shower the weather forecast says. I will be picking a "sunshiny" bit to go shopping 

Joe, I hope the weather stays good for you 

I hope you all have a lovely day 

I'm not staying in Liège but will have a full afternoon and evening on the way back to see the Dali exhibition. I have just arrived in Aachen and should be in Col-og-nuh in 35 mins.

if I get chance I'll light another votive for our much missed forum member.

GJ, I knew you were going to the Oktoberfest but was wrongly assuming that it was mainly in October. They could rename it Septemberfest but that mightn't go down too well

That's a nice tribute for Cologne

Good morning everyone, we've had a couple of showers but it's lovely at the moment, blue skies and white clouds.

Great news on your new door Moonie, I hope it comes quickly.  I'm glad you managed to have a good day with the little ones Yogi despite the weather.

Enjoy your day everyone

Oktoberfest does indeed start in September. In Hannover it is more laid back, cost-effective with less tourists! There is a fantastic funfair and usually an important football match and I'm doing the lot!

Good morning all 

A dry and bright start to the day.

Joe, that's a lovely way to remember Col.

Moonie, I hope you manage to dodge any showers.

Have a good day everyone.

Hi squiggle 

Lets hope you have more blue sky than white cloud 

I will not hold my breath about the door but fankoo

Video of George and Charlotte attending a children's party in Canada.

I think you'll find it the best video with Charlotte you've seen to date.

A small piece of history:

The very last image taken by the Rosetta probe just before it fell to ground on the comet and was turned off by the European Space Agency.

The image scale is about 5 mm/pixel and the image measures about 2.4 m across. It was taken about 20 metres from the ground, so it's very close.

I was so lucky Moonie thank you.  I went to the hairdressers in the dry (does quick twirl) and it rained heavily when I was in there.  Blue sky when I was finished, about a minute after I got in it poured down

Coming along nicely now.  I have of course guessed the truth about Raine - there were many clues left.  It's very intriguing.

That was good timing Squiggle

I thought it was sweet Milly certainly got very mysterious on us this time!

P.S. I loved the couple in the book, and the mans dog in it too  

I'm going to leave goodnight hugs for everyone, because my best friend is on her way and is staying with me for the weekend! *jumps on sofa*

sweet dreams gang  

<--- leaves extra night owl hug for yogi 

Evening all 

Moonie, I hope you avoided the showers.

Lovely twirl, Squiggle.

Thanks for the link, El. Sweet video of George and Charlotte.

Summer, I hope you have a brilliant weekend with your friend.

Goodnight and sweet dreams, everyone.

night yogi and summer

Moin! Expecting a dull Saturday with mid-day showers! The football kicks off at 12 your time and we expect a capacity crowd of 49000 - not bad for the second division!

hope you all have a good day with better weather than I!

Good morning everyone

GJ, my weather is worse than yours. Some rain already this morning, rain clouds ovehead, and more to come over the morning and afternoon, yellow warnng for rain in force.

Summer, I hope you have a great weekend with your friend

GI, I hope the football match is a good one. 49,000 is good for the second division, that's more like the premier league here in numbers.

I hope everyone has a good day

Good morning everyone.

Weather is chilly and slightly misty.

El, I hope the heavy rain doesn't cause any problems in your area.

I hope the football match is a good one, Joe.

Have a good day everyone.

Good morning everyone, a right old mixture this morning.  Sunny at the moment but with a big  rain cloud just creeping over.

Have a super weekend  with your friend Summer.

Enjoy your day everyone

Yogi, I'm not expecting there to be rain problems in my area, it would be more likely over the Cotswolds.

Squiggle, I hope it keeps dry for you if you are venturing out

I'm back from M&S. I've got some of their new Autumn fruit sponge puddings to try. The topping is a plum, blackberry and damson compote.

Good morning everyone  

Wet and miserable here and not set to be much better today either

I have shopped and got slightly wet but only slightly wet 

Joe, I hope you have a great time at the footie 

Hi Sweet, I hope you and friend have a fantastic weekend 

Springy your sofa 

Yogi, I hope your weather cheers up a little and you have a lovely day 

squiggle, I hope you manage to hang on to the good weather 

Hi El, are you M & S's official taster? 

Velvet, have a super weekend 

Moonie, I'm one of the unofficial Ben's Buddies M&S food tasters I specialise in puddings and cakes, Squiggle in hot chocolate, and Summer in pancakes.

Yep, the queen of the curries, that's Sweet 

Here's a recipe for Summer, could be the perfect one for her

It could well be

Popping in to say goodnight and sweet dreams everyone. Hugs for any night owls.

Good mornng everyone

100% blue sky here, no breeze, quite cool, no likelyhood of any rain. Much the same across most of the country. If Summer didn't have visitors, she'd be off on one of her marathon walks

Apparently Kenneth Branagh is making another film adaptation of Murder on the Orient Express (he's directing and also takes the lead as Poirot).
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-37523752

Like the Albert Finney version, there's lots of well known actors in the cast.

I wonder why it's being redone?

I hope everyone has a good day

Another dull start to the day in Lower Saxony! I'm expecting heavy rain on my travels. It's good to know you'll be dry back home. Have a lovely peaceful Sunday everyone!
