It will have to be soon though or you will get..little pink bundle withdrawal symptoms..   

I know!

Its gone really cool here now 

It is here, too.

Mr Yogi is upstairs with the fan on. I think his internal thermostat is broken.

 he needs a de-coke 

I thought about putting the heating on 

So did I, but Mr Yogi would have been moaning that he was too hot.

When we went abroad, my sons nicknamed him Mr Frosty, because he was always melting.

You could always tell Mr Yogi to open the windows upstairs if he is to warm when you have the heating on   

He has the windows open and the fan on atm, and the heating isn't even on.

 

I'm off for a read before bed. See you tomorrow Moonie, I hope you sleep well.

Summer, I hope your Mil has been eating today and feeling brighter. Goodnight, sweet dreams.

Night owl hugs.

 warm blood has Mr Yogi 

Goodnight Yogi. Enjoy your book and sleep well. I shall endeavour to do the same. Sweet dreams    

Hoot hoot! *night owls* This one is for mr yogi... Everyone knows the earth is a disc that lays on 4 elephants that ride on the back of a giant turtle! Why are you even questioning it! Sweetest of dreams to you all

Good evening Sweet    

Lovely piccies  

Thanks moonie hi again

Hiya again 

Good morning everyone, up with the lark this morning as I have an early dental appointment.

 

I hope the news with MiL is good news Summer, have a good day everyone

Good morning everyone

 

Cloudy here and has been raining earlier.

 

In Greek mythology it was one of the Titans, Atlas, who was responsible for supporting the Earth from falling down:

Oh so that's where the word atlas came from! Good morning all sunny but a cool breeze here, it's going to be a nice day. The radio this morning says a study had found that a certain percentage of (honest) patents have admitting to having a favourite child! I can honestly say I believe that, I'm very much loved but my mum definitely favours my brother

Good morning everyone. Lots of low cloud, with the sun trying to peep through. Showers are forecast for today.

Summer, I laughed out loud at last night's owl. It is so apt for Mr Yogi.

Good luck with the dental appointment, Squiggle.

Poor old Atlas, that was quite a burden he had to bear.

 

I don't have a favourite! I may love different qualities they each have, but I love my sons equally.

 

Though for the Greek myth purists, Atlas didn't support the Earth but stood right at the Western edge of the Earth and was supporting the sky from falling down on the Earth. It was the celestial globe he carried.

He'd been supporting the Titans in their war against the Olympians. The Titans were defeated and supporting the sky was Zeus's way of punishing him.

I love Greek mythology!

Good morning everyone  

The weather is dull and overcast. We have already had some rain too 

Sweet I hope you get good news about your MIL today 

Have a sunny day  

One of my favourite books as a child was a collection of the Greek myths. I've still got it somewhere. I've also kept Robert Graves' "The Greek Myths" which my father had in his collection.

Morning morning what are your plans? Rain = movies in my house! El, a timeless piece to have in any book collection IMO! And one that I would read regularly too

I have an encyclopaedia collection from the 1930's, it was my grandmothers. Her family weren't well off at all after her father got sick at a young age and she was given the books by a school teacher when the school got new ones, she knew my grandmother would love having them. I love that I now have them. I should really create a vintage display with them..!

Shopping then telly then here then bed 

Summer, I've too have an old encyclopaedia collection. 8 volumes in rather battered condition. No date on them.

 

Early morning weekend films on BBC2 this coming weekend. The pick of them seems to be the 1939 film Love Affair (Irene Dunne and Charles Boyer). Sunday 6.45 am. Was remade as An Affair to Remember (Deborah Kerr and Cary Grant).

Totally inspired, I've been scouring eBay for vintage looking bookcases and shelving, I've got a couple of options and just need to measure the books and the space I intend to display them El, shall we photograph our books and upload them?! Mine are red with (I think) gold lettering

I think I'm being followed by owls

Summer, you probably forgot that I don't have a mobile phone to photograph the books . Oddly enough mine are also red with gold lettering - Harmsworth Encyclopedia in 8 very battered volumes.

Summer, yes, you are being followed by owls

I love those bookends.  My dentist is making noises about replacing a few fillings but the practice has recently been taken over and they have fancy new premises but they seem to be pushing expensive work, recommending that you go expensive private fillings etc.  So I am a little unsure whether I can trust their recommendations.  I said I will leave them for another 6 months.  I have just booked in for the hygienist in the meanwhile.

 

Those encyclopaedias sound like a real treasure Summer and ditto with your books on Greek myths EL.  An Affair To Remember is one of my favourite movies, I think I will set the Sky box to record the one with Irene Dunn and Charles Boyer to see how it compares.

 

It's a sad topic about favourite children.  I know it happens and I have seen it in my own family but I think it's such a sad thing

Nah, its your imagination Sweet   

Wouldn't it be funny if we have the same books El! I'm going to hunt them out tonight, I'll photograph mine and at least you'll be able to see if they are similar Squiggle, dentists confuse me! I would have said the same as you, especially if they don't ache

ROFL moonie!

And finally the real deal...

  

What a sweet pic.

Summer, are you thinking of getting those bookends?

Have you heard how your MiL is today?

Squiggle, I can understand why you are wary about getting the dental work done and I agree with your decision to wait 6 months and see how things go.

I love the film, An Affair To Remember - I love Cary Grant films.

I don't know very much about Greek Mythology. I really ought to read more about it, as I'm sure I would find it interesting.
