Good morning everyone
Rained all evening and night, petering out now. Some heavy showers forecast early afternoon.
I hope everyone has a good day
Slim, I haven't spotted anything on the Talking Pictures tv channel that you'll be interested in during the coming week.
On Thursday there's a British film called "They Came to a City" (1944) described as a fantasy. It's about a group of people to come to live in an "ideal" city and talk about it. From a play by J B Priestley who appears in the film as himself. Also on Thursday is a repeat of "Things to Come" (1936), the British science fiction film written by H G Wells' own novel. Although not a double bill, the two films could be. Both films have considerable involvement from the writers, are of an allegorical nature, and ultimately rather boring.
On Sunday evening is "The Gentle Sex" (1943). Unlikely to appeal to you as it's a war film but is about 7 women who join the ATS. Noted for being Leslie Howard's final film (as co-director and narrator).
Good morning Buddies
Sometimes sunny, sometimes wet with a breeze
Enjoy your day everyone

I noticed that the BBC Two channel were showing those as a double bill of Norman Jewison films. They are repeated on BBC Four on Thursday evening with a 25 minute interview he gave back in 2005 in between.

Hi Velvet
Yes, Chelltenham won 3 matched in a row though the next 2 games are trickier away ones.
First 11 league games this season 1 point
Change of manager
Next 11 league games 18 points
Then the 9 last games 13 points.
I reckon they'll need at least 20 points from the last 15 games of the season

Good morning Buddies
Heavy rain overnight and this morning. Windy too
Enjoy your day everyone
Rain seems to have stopped here.
More rain forecast for here tomorrow, with some very heavy rain to start with. So Met Office have a yellow warning for that. That warning doesn't seem to apply to anyone else here.
The weather is out of control El.
We're due a downpour

Itâs just very light rain now but we have a yellow warning for heavy rain tomorrow El.

I think that if you look at the warnings map on the Met Office site, that the warning area doesn't include yours, Moonie. The BBC warnings aren't as precise.
