Goodnight and sweet dreams, Ros
Moin Moin!
it has been raining 4711 here. We are still doing stuff to my son's house. Catch you later. Hope all is well!
Good morning everyone 
Cloudy here but the rain has stopped though there may be a few showers.
Yogi, I hope you have a good day with PB and BB
That BBC Jazz channel was a temporary channel in collaboration with Jazz FM and is now off air. However the programmes can be listened to online:

I hope everyone has a good day and that Squiggle hasn't floated away on the flood water
Good morning everyone, no I'm still here EL. Grey but dry sums it up here .
Yogi have a lovely day with the little treasures.
Enjoy your day everyone
I see that on the Talking Pictures TV channel on Friday is a short 1931 film called The Stolen Jools (at 23:35) Although it's been on a Stan Laurel & Oliver Hardy DVD it's not really one of their films though they do appear in it. It was made as a promotional film to raise funds for the National Variety Artists tuberculosis sanatorium.
It's packed with very brief appearances by quite a few well known actors and actresses of the time so it may be worth recording just to see how many you recognise.
Also on that channel is a 1971 film called Quest for Love (Thursday December 1st 21:40). It's semi-science fiction in the sense that a scientist wakes up in an alternative reality but essentially it's more of a romantic story. It stars Tom Bell and Joan Collins. I've never seen it but it's one I've wanted to catch for years. Apparently Joan Collins' character in the film is a nice gentle person and is unlike the roles that she's better known for.
Good morning I hope you all slept well 
enjoy your day yogi, and joe I hope all goes smoothly
thanks for clarifying El, jazz FM is my usual but I hadn't heard anything about the collaboration.
Squiggle, I'm glad you didn't float away . It's grey but dry here though there's been a bit of drizzle.
Summer, Radio 3 does have the odd jazz programme as well as its classical. I think there tends to be a couple of programmes on Saturdays. George Gershwin composed music which can be regarded as classical and as jazz - his Rhapsody in Blue for instance and his Porgy and Bess can be regarded as a jazz opera. Though as they are scored they are unlikely to be improvised so aren't pure jazz.
That's what I love, jazz is very varied. I'm happy to leave to radio to play and just Potter around
A stunning shot of a white "fog bow" has been captured by a photographer, Melvin Nicholson, over Rannoch Moor in the west of Scotland.
Evening all.
We had a great day with the grandchildren.
BB was a happy chappy. He and PB get on really well together.
PB has been practicing the Nativity at nursery and sang Rock a bye Jesus to me - it was so sweet.
I had ordered some children's craft kits for her (unlike Summer, I am not gifted re crafting and need help!) so PB spent the afternoon making Christmas cards and nativity scenes for herself and BB. They actually looked really nice and she was very pleased with them.
Joe, I hope your son appreciates all your hard work.
El, that fog bow is beautiful.
Squiggle, I hope your weather improves soon.
Summer, I'm not keen on jazz music.
Goodnight and sweet dreams, Ros
Hugs for the night owls
night yogi and summer if you pop in
*night owls*
wow! I didn't know a fog bow was possible, it's stunning
haha yogi, I won't buy you a jazzy cd for Xmas then
PB is the most adorable little girl ever, it's official 
is she enjoying the play rehearsals?
Wishing you all very sweet dreams
Too wet to cycle today so we walked together round the villages. I've measured up to build wardrobes then it's decoration some new carpets and beds. A superior wet weather programme!
I'm shattered already and am picking up the youngest from school tomorrow.
Even though I don't always comment I'm always interested in your news.
Have a good day everyone!
Good morning
Joe I hope you get time for a nice cuppa tea in between jobs, you are a busy bee indeed! Glad you enjoy reading the thread, I do too and often try to catch up in intervals throughout the day.
I hope you all slept well, and that it's been a quieter & drier night. I think I even dreamt about rain last night
Good morning everyone
Another cloudy day here though probably dry.
Yogi, I'm glad you had a great day with PB and BB A very long time ago I was a shepherd in a Nativity play at school - that's about it in terms of my acting career
GJ, that was a good productive day
Summer, may be you'll dream about snow tonight
I hope everyone has a good day
Good morning everyone, grey and cloudy again but at least no more rain. That sounds a lovely day with the little ones Yogi. Look forward to hearing more about the Nativity play, I love Nativity plays.
Enjoy your day everyone
Unusual for BBC to show a commecial advert on its website but the recent Heinz ad has become news because it's been banned for health and safety reasons.

Good morning everyone
A very frosty morning.
Joe, you must be as busy now, as you were before you retired.
Squiggle, I'll keep you updated on the nativity. I love them too but sadly there is only room for mums and dads to attend. Would you like to see a pic of PB's craft nativity scenes she made yesterday, I'll send it to you.
Summer, PB is loving the nativity rehearsals. If she doesn't get the part of Mary, they better let her be the narrator - a non speaking part won't go down well.
El, my sons were shepherds too - with the obligatory tea towel on their heads.
I've dropped Keira off at the groomers. Her last appointment had to be postponed as she had that respiratory infection.
Have a good day everyone.

ROFL!!! El that is just brilliant! what a great idea
I was the inn keeper in my school nativity, I wanted to be Mary really
that's the decorations up at work, the display looks lovely 
Just popped in to wish someone a Happy Birthday. Before I nip round to my sons I've swept up the last leaves and given the lawn a last cut. (Hopefully) Moss killer fest followed.
Lovely sunny day here and we had a very early ride out.
Carry on!

Those craft pictures are gorgeous Yogi, PB is a very clever girl.
BBC has commissioned a further three series of Call the Midwife besides the sixth series which will air early next year so it will continue to 2020. There's also the Christmas specials each year.
And this year's Christmas special is partially set in South Africa at a missionary hospital.

You are a very busy man, Joe.
Evening Velvet.
I'm hoping my son and DiL might get some good pics and perhaps a little video of PB's nativity. Not sure what the nursery policy is on parents being able to take pics of group activities.
I'll be in the IAC thread.
