Moonie, that's good of you to send Yogi a snow plough

 

Yogi walked by the lough (means loch) with the plough, finding it tough as she went through the snow doing a thorough job though had a cough and later a hiccough.

An unusual sentence showing 8 different ways of pronouncing words ending in ough.

 

 Love it, El 

 

Thanks for the snowplough, Moonie. We had some sleet this afternoon and some of the snow has melted.

Most welcome Yogi 

Hold the Sunset starts on Sunday on BBC1 at 19.30 before Call the Midwife. 6 part sitcom.

Edith's dreams of retirement to the sun with her long-term suitor Phil are shattered when her 50-year-old son Roger arrives home, seeking to recapture the happiness of his boyhood.

Considering that Edith is played by Alison Steadman and Phil by John Cleese this looks promising. It's also got Peter Egan in.

Good evening all 

Yes Squiggle, as the others suspected, the tiddlers and I made pancakes today.

A lot of the snow has gone now, thank goodness 

I hope you’ve all had a good day

I’m not overly keen on John Cleese but I do like Alison Steadman and Peter Egan so I’m going to give it a go 

Oh my goodness! I feel like violet in Charlie & the chocolate factory after she balloons up like a giant blueberry!!!! Pancake day has been so much fun, I’ve cooked for 2 different parties and done one dressed as a Disney princess! 

I hope you've all had a fab day

Good morning everyone

Cloudy here, forecast to be rainy much of the daylight hours, not particularly warm but no frost.

Yogi and Summer, I'm glad you had a good pancaking day

I hope everyone has a good day

78 times 82 equals 6396 (I did that in my head without writing anything down though it's not as hard as it might seem )

Good morning everyone, extremely windy here and rainy too, of course.  Sounds like you had a blast Summer 

Enjoy your day everyone 

Morning all

We had a snow shower this morning but it hasn’t settled.

I’ve been catching up on housework and clearing drawers.

Have a good day, all

(x - y) times ((x+y) equals x² - y². If x = 80 and y = 2 then x-y=78 and x+y=82 so 78 x 82 = 80² - 2² = 6400 - 4 = 6396.

Good afternoon Buddies  

We have had the kitchen sink today. By that I mean, it’s been windy, cold, snow, sleet and now rain 

I actually managed to find a dry bit to bank though 

I am back in the warm now and plan to stay indoors 

Have a good day but stay warm and cosy

You lost me at (x-y). Algebra was my worst subject

I’m glad you managed to do your banking during a dry spell

We’ve had snow, followed by sleet. I haven’t ventured out so I’m warm and cosy.

That’s good news Yogi 

It did everything before I went out and since I have been back, so very lucky 

Moonie, that was good timing on your part

And if you think about it, it means that the difference between the squares of two whole numbers cannot be a prime number.

Yogi, I won't ask you to differentiate with respect to you

Good morning everyone

Sunny and less cold here. Temperatures closer to normal for the next few days but in the latter part of next week for the following couple of weeks there's a possibility of the temperature crashing down to being really cold.

I hope everyone has a good day

Good morning everyone

Weather is dry and milder than it has been recently.

Off to Morrisons.

Have a good day, all.

Good morning everyone, a nice bright morning and dry for a change.  It still feels nippy to me but it might improve as the day goes on.

Enjoy your day everyone 

Good morning sunny and a little warmer here today I hope you all slept well  

Some of the photographs submitted for the Underwater Photogographer of the Year competition:
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/in-pictures-43044592

The second photograph is the reason for posting this for obvious reasons.

The weather has changed since I posted this morning. There is now an icy wind and it has started to rain.

El, I have saved that pic to show the tiddlers.

 I’ll only show it to the tiddlers then delete it.

On second thoughts, I’ll save the link and delete the pic - to be on the safe side

I've found that the photographer, Grant Thomas, has a website of his photos and you can buy prints of them.
http://www.grantthomasphotography.com/Gallery

The photo on the BBC site is on his website, the first one included on the marine life section (that's where he's put it ) It costs £1.95 for a small print, various higher prices for larger sizes up to £58.95 for the largest size. I don't know if there's postage and packing charge on top.

You can get a much better view of  the picture on his site compared to the BBC.
