Yogi, I hope your shopping for your parents goes well

Tuco, I don't watch CBB. There's a list of the entrants on the BBC so I looked through that. Most of them mean nothing to me though checking up their birthdates, Sally Morgan is 66 and Kirstie Alley 61 so those are the oldest.

Good morning everyone, blue sky but strangely dull this morning, with a breeze that feels a little on the chilly side - I've got the feeling that we've left summer behind - not you of course Summer we certainly wouldn't want to leave you behind.

Enjoy your day everyone

I dunno but stranger things have happened.

The boss wears my black faced Omega Constellation. 36mm.

And never has one worn one so well. It's a love story.

There's a mother of pearl Rolex and a Bueche Girod cocktail.

But it's the Omega. I love that.

Anytime now the Halios Seaforth should land

Good morning everyone

 

Cloudy day here though no rain forecast.

 

Sadly all too predictable - pension scam victims have lost an average of £91k each having been taken in by scammers after their pension pots:

I hope everyone has a good day

A new official advert warning pople of this:

Back in 1995 in order to celebrate 100 years of films, the Vatican produced a list of 45 films they considered great.
Here's a link to the Wiki article listing them.
The list does contain films which will be familiar to you though quite a number won't be.

I've seen 25 of the 45.

Get well soon Yogi.

We have a recreation ground at the bottom of our garden. The geese and the seagulls are currently in a ‘stand-off’ situation 

Its only a hundred yards over the houses and trees to our park pool

A peace envoy from the United Nations is on the way to see if a peace treaty can be brokered to prevent this escalating.

It’s seems to have worked El because I can’t see a goose or seagull on the rec now 

In the last couple of minutes it's been announced that Kofi Annan has died. I hadn't known that when I posted the above.

It is

Above edited for my spelling error.

Hi Buddies.

 Thanks everyone. I think I must have eaten something which disagreed with me but I’m feeling a lot better this morning

Sad news about Kofi Annan

El, I’m glad your dove of peace seems to have worked on Moonie’s seagulls

Have a good day, all

Yogi, I'm glad you are feeling a lot better today

Yogi, I’m so pleased you’re feeling a lot better today 

As for the dove of peace, I’m sure there are doves on the rec now 

I have had a look at doves online and they certainly look like they are 

Though doves and pigeons are of the same general family, so who knows.

I know what I believe though 😉

Moonie, as you say, doves and pigeons are of the same general family (columbidae). Some people tend to call smaller ones doves and larger ones pigeons, and others call white ones doves and others pigeons. The one I showed above would be taken as a dove of course.

Correct El 

I noticed that my broadband speed had slowed right down, did some speed tests to confirm that, looked on my Virgin Media service status and found that there's a fault in my area affecting not only broadband but everything else other than land phone. They say the service will be intermittent until sorted out by 4 pm tomorrow (maybe), So if I'm not around unexpectedly here, that's why.

El, I had the same problem the other week. First the broadband sent very slow then television was missing most of the channels. I was told it was an intermittent problem for a week or so as they was doing some essential maintenance in my area. It was okay after a few days though 👍

Thanks Moonie

Thanks gents 

El, I hope the broadband issues don’t impact too much on you. We won’t like it if you go missing

Good morning everyone

Still here, haven't gone missing.....yet
I decided to take the power cable out of the superhub and put it back in to force a restart yesterday evening, Did a speed test and instead of 2 mb/s it was back to 100+ mb/s and this morning it's at the correct speed. Whether that's just a coincidence with the engineer clocking off for the night or if my restart sorted it out remains to be seen. Officially there's still problems locally.

Very cloudy here. Although no rain forecast I could get some drizzle.

I hope everyone has a good day

Phew! That’s good 

*stands down search party* 

I was told by someone to unplug the the Superhub too when my broadband speed went very slow too. Leave it unplugged for 15 minutes then plug it back in and let it reboot. It worked for me too 

Good morning Buddies 

Rained overnight and overcast atm

Yayyy, glad you are still here, El 

Have a good day, everyone

Good morning, Moonie 

Good morning  

oh Squiggle I feel like I’m time travelling, I tell you! Has someone hit the FF button on my life?!  

next week should be much calmer, and my mum is going to stay with friends for the week too. Hopefully i’ll get some downtime  

El, how spooky of you posting that UN symbol as the announcement of Kofi’s passing came out 🙏🏻 

Yogi i hope you feel better I’m glad it was a short thing. 

I’m heading out walking, have a lovely day everyone
