Did you get my Vacheron Constantin?
You are bulletproof Yogi. Easy
Hope you see the kids this weekend.
Good morning everyone
Forecast to be a day of sunshine and heavy showers here.
I didn't spot it until too late but a 1930 western called "The Big Trail" is on Talking Pictures. It's being repeated Sunday week at 6 in the morning. It's an early big scale talkie western which was directed by Raoul Walsh, a notable American film director who wore an eye patch for most of his career following an accident where he lost an eye. The significance of this film is that it was the first significant film of John Wayne. Also in the cast is Tyrone Power senior, father of the famous actor of the same name.
I hope everyone has a good day
Good morning everyone, a much brighter and drier morning. Well done on your shopping trip Yogi, Christmas shopping coming on well then?
Enjoy your day everyone
Back from my M&S shopping before the heavy showers set in - it now looks very dark out there.
I thought I'd treat myself having done the huge job (though the new accountant looks as if he'll be coming back to me with questions). So I've got a couple of apple frangipane tart slices for my lunchtime puddings this weekend. For tea I've got a couple of M&S muffins, one is a chocolate orange one (the colour of which makes me think of Halloween ) and the other one is a Christmas chocolate one which has a chocolate brown holly leaf with three llittle red berries
Good morning all.
Looks like sunshine and showers today.
lol Velvet, I had to google Vacheron Constantin
Squiggle, Iâve made a good start on the the tiddlersâ Christmas shopping.
When I asked PB what she would like, she said, âGet me anything you want, Grannyâ.
I said, âWhat if I get you something you donât like?â
She replied, âI always like what you get meâ.
El, Iâm glad you get back from your shopping trip before the weather turns bad.
Yogi, that makes it easy for you to get something for PB
Yes, I timed my shopping well as the rain came a couple of minutes after I posted just before 11.
A few photos around England sent in to the BBC over the last few days:

I like PB. Make sure she takes up a good one. Law or medicine
I wanted to be an air traffic controller.
There's a trinity of watch makers. They are Patek, AP, and Vacheron.

Good evening Buddies
Cold, wet and windy most of the day here
I am keeping warm though. I hope you all are too
Have a great evening everyone
Moonie, apart from some showers here, the weather hasn't been too bad and isn't that cold so better than yours. I hope you have a good evening watching the Asian Champions League final in Tehran. There the final is over two legs and this is the second - Persepolis, the Iranian side, has to overcome a 2 goal deficit from the first leg in Japan. The match is getting into the news as some Iranian women have been allowed into the stadium to watch, and that's quite a change as for years they've been refused entry where it's been men playing.
Hi El
I will be watch the first ever meeting in the Copa Libertadores football final, first leg between old enemies Boca Juniors and River Plate
Supposed to be our equivalent of the European Cup Final but with malicious intent
Itâs gonna be cracker. Canât wait
I canât see it ending 11 a side
Moonie, you'll need earplugs whenever a goal is scored
GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL

I like Boca. That's Maradona. The fans run the clubs. And they are hostile.
Maradona was a one man football team. Anywhere. Let's say Napoli.
Messi doesn't come close.

It's the Overseas you want with Vacheron.
One day
I'll tell you what I like about them. It's the Maltese Cross. It runs through the wristband.
Good morning everyone
Showers around here this morning but not too bad a day.
Ros, I thought you would like those two photos in particular
I hope everyone has a good day
Morning Buddies
Cold, wet and windy here so I donât intend to go anywhere
El, the Copa Libertadores was postponed because of bad weather. It is due to be played at 7pm UK time today. So will be watching then, weather permitting
Thought for the day...
Every inch a king, every foot a ruler
Not one of mine I hasten to add
Have a great day everyone
Good morning everyone, a mix of blue sky and cloud this morning, I think we will probably get a few showers. I like the picture of the sheep best, that's a Herdwick my favourite sheep, sheep with attitude.
Enjoy your day everyone
Morning troops
This is when I think of my father. Quinthe Squadron.
You'll no get that but I think of that bastard quite often. Always his bottle.
Navigator Mosquito.
And I have the Quinthe Squadron book. It's big and blue.
He forgot that when he left.
My mum brought us up.
I'll tell you her cars...
escort
mini
dolly sprint. I learned to drive in that.
Princess 2.2HLS.
Renault 5 GT turbo before anyone had one. That Was imported and it went.
The Golf GTI. It was the Campaign Model. Mark one.
Moonie, I hope you get to see that football match
Squiggle, I could tell from the photo that the Herdwick sheep was quite determined As you can guess Herdwick means sheep pasture. There are places called Hardwick which has the same name. And in my part of the world it's Hardwicke,
Velvet, I drove past a tiny vehicle a few weeks ago though don't know what it was. It looked as if it was a smaller version of a Robin Reliant crossed with a van, blue and it looked as if it said Distillery on the side.
In case it had crossed your mind it looks as if the next series of Victoria starts on Saturday 13th January so a change of day from the first two series. That's on IMDB and the date could change.
