I understand how you feel about the spiders, Joyron, but I can't kill them any more. I now have a little Squiggle sitting on my shoulder, asking me not to kill the spiders.

I hereby nominate this for saying of the year

 

I hear what you say Yogi but unfortunately any spider that enters my property will not leave alive!!  We have lots of really big spiders that arrive here and the thought of putting them outside so that they can come back univited again just cannot be contemplated.  Sorry but that's my rules. 

I understand.

 

Squiggle                    KILL THE          

Save the Spider          SPIDER!!!

 

I'm afraid I do look a bit smug here (which obviously I really am not )

Blue has always been my favourite colour 

You were quick as a flash there Joyron, I had to post first and then add the text so that it was in the right place

Sorry Squiggle but I claim the blue outfit.  Sorry I cannot stay and have more banter but hubby is on his way home and wants his tea!!

Those pics are brilliant. You don't look smug, just angelic.

Lol love the pic ^ El, thanks for the rambling info I'll bookmark both so I can refer to them at any time

Off to read now so I will catch up with you all tomorrow - sleep well

Goodnight Squiggle, enjoy your book. See you tomorrow.

Sweet dreams squiggle I'm off after the bus, sweet dreams yogi

Night night Summer, hope you caught the bus.

Missing Ros in the CBB thread, hope the computer problems are sorted soon.

No Skylark tonight, I wonder if her computer is playing up too.

Good morning everyone

 

I hope all is OK with Ros and Skylark whether it's computers playing up or other things

 

A bit cloudy at present but mild. All change tonight with 5-6 cold days ahead in my area - -3C forecast for Monday night which would be the coldest this winter.

Good morning everyone, a really overcast day here and cold too.  I am not sure what the forecast is over the weekend EL but I think its going to be colder like yours.

 

Hope we see Ros and Skylark today and the compute problems are only minor blips.

morning Cold windy and rainy here today, I want to hide under a blanket! Baz said last night that ros should be getting her computer back today, let's hope so. I hope skylark and her computer are alright

Good morning everyone.

Flying visit this morning, as I'm on my way out to the shops.

*wonders what treats yogi has bought us all*

Squiggle, the Met Office says that West Devon will escape the coldest weather, although not warm, you are less likely to get severe frost. The minimum in your area is 1 C Sunday night compared to -2C in Gloucester,

Some rather large pancakes - very nice with strawberry jam.

I wonder who's going to pinch them - I'm not going to name them, but ........

*leaves some pancakes for everyone to share*

Don't want you-know-who to get done for pancake pinching.

And to ensure this - they are watching:

Someone has posted this BBC news item today on to Youtube:

pancake police! Thank you for the pancakes yogi

That made me laugh too

 

Signing off now, off to read soon, been quite a tiring day - sleep well everyone, speak to you tomorrow.

@ the pancake police.

 

That pianist was very good for a little tiddler.

 

Goodnight Squiggle, I hope you get a good sleep and recharge your batteries for tomorrow.

Sweet dreams squiggle Pianists always amaze me, they make a tricky task look so effortless!

Can you play any musical instruments, Summer? I can't.

Off for an early night, goodnight all.

aww sorry I missed you all and it is great to be back  was really pleased my pooter was fixed so quickly night

Sorry yogi, I popped off for a shower and then indulged in some Damon drooling (vampire diaries) I'll say no, although I did play the recorder as a child and the bass guitar very briefly as a teen, I really have a poor sense of rhythm the best thing I play is cd's Sweet dreams to you and skylark and ros

That's the only way I can make sweet music, too, Summer.

 

Good morning everyone, it's a frosty morning up here. I like frosty days because it makes everything twinkle and look pretty.

I'm glad you got your computer problems fixed quickly, Ros, I missed you.

I hope Skylark is back soon, she has been awol for a couple of days.

Good morning everyone

 

A cold morning with frost everywhere. Fairly sunny, but more cloud than was forecast.

 

Ros, nice to see you back and I'm glad your computer is fixed

 

For anyone who likes The Lark Ascending (Vaughan Williams), there's a half hour documentary this evening at 7.30 on BBC4. It's presented by Diana Rigg.

Good morning, El.

I've set my V+ to record The lark Ascending. Incidentally, I havent yet watched The Mystery Of Edwin Drood, is it worth a look or should I just delete it from my V+ box?

Good morning everyone, its definitely much colder now although we didn't have a frost last night.  Glad you got your pooter fixed Ros and hope we see Skylark back with us soon.  A quick hi to Joyron, hope you pop in later - I'm getting close to the end of the book and wondering what the secret is

good morning Light frost here, I like a proper twinkly frost like yogi's better though, it's so pretty I do hope skylark is ok, come back soon skylark

Yogi, I recorded Edwin Drood and haven't seen it yet. I'm not expecting much from it. I've tried to keep away from reviews of it as they could easily give too much away. As the book was only half completed, it means that the writers had more leeway than with other Dickens' adaptations.
