evening all
a steady, pleasant day here, I hope you've all had a good day too
Hi Sweet 
It certainly ain't a bucket, as El said 
You may have heard about academics from the University of York compiling a list of 30 out of date English words to get them back into use. This is a list of those words:
They have been working with Privilege Insurance who are asking people to vote for one of those words. The winning word will be chosen in a month, and the academics will be writing to the Oxford English Dictionary to launch a campaign to bring it back.
Fans of the revived words can vote from today on Twitter via @PrivilegeUK or by clicking here
Good morning oh what's going on in the news? Thanks bazzy
Moonie I'm glad you're not kicking the bucket! Kick anything but that
el I love that list of words 
which ones will you be using in future?!
Squiggle le I hope you're keeping warm & dry
Summer, I assume that this is what Baz is referring to - 22 injuries following an improvised explosive device on a underground train at Parsons Green station in London

I knew nothing about this when I posted that list of words.

I hope you and Miss Bramble are okay 
Oh Crikey, I hope those 22 people are going to be alright, that's scary

Thanks Ros sweet dreaming everyone
Good morning everyone 
Cloudy and cool here, some rain a short time ago. Wind is coming from the north/north-east which is why it's not warm out there.
Summer, my word isn't on that list as it's my own invention: soggy-oggy which is a used tea bag
I hope everyone has a good day
Good morning Buddies
The sun has crept through, just a little
Washing on the line. No shopping to do 
Thats my day day sorted, already
Well not quite, I'm sure I will fine something to occupy myself rather than just watching the telly
Have a great day and I hope the sun shines on you at sometime today

Love that word El
Good morning everyone, quite a bright morning, well at least it's dry, quite a few clouds but from tomorrow the forecast is better and drier (lots of dry washing for you Moonie 
)
Enjoy your day everyone
El Loro posted:I doubt if I could get my soggy-oggy word accepted by any dictionary though
Appararently oggy is a Cornish slang word for a Cornish pasty (short for hoggan, a Cornish word).
El, it should be in a dictionary
It's a genuine learning curve on here with you
El Loro posted:It's possible that the football chant "oggy oggy oggy" followed by "oi oi oi" is derived from that Cornish word.
I doubt the Welsh rugger fans would agree with you there but anything is possible

That good 
Good morning cool here today and with light showers
lol at Soggy oggy! I have this game where I stand at the back door and launch my soggy oggies down the garden, to see if I can land them at the base of my roses
Moonie, Max Boyce popiularised the phrase "oggy oggy oggy" in the 1970s where it became used at Welsh rugby matches but it seems that the phrase as used in Cornwall is much much older

Lol not likely! She's not the retrieving kind 
Evening all I hope you've had a good day it's been pleasant here, and I've finally got a quiet evening in to myself
Good morning everyone
Cloudy here, could get a shower or two during the day but quite likely there won't be any.
Talking Pictures channel has The Hurricane (1937) on this morning starting at 10 am. For anyone who likes disaster films, this is a must if you haven't seen it before. The film is set on a South Sea island in Polynesia so strictly the film should be called The Cyclone (same as a hurricane which is in a different part of the world). The cyclone section of the film is exceptional and is quite scary. And the scenes with Dorothy Lamour and Mary Astor don't use doubles.
I hope everyone has a good day
Good morning everyone, a beautiful morning and it's fascinating to see the beginning of the autumn colours creeping into the trees on the opposite hillside.
Enjoy your day everyone

Yesterday in the car park the car which had been parked next to mine had a logo which I didn't recognise. I've now identified it as a Tesla electric car. It was as long as the car bay length and looked expensive. Might have been a model X where the prices start at ÂĢ76,500 and go up to ÂĢ121,800. Substantially more than the cost of all the cars I've ever bought.
Hopefully I didn't scratch it on the way out (I didn't)
