Evening hope you've all had a good day

Sweet dreams yogi I hope you have a restful, nightmare free night

Moonie, am I allowed to giggle at your sister? did you buy anything for yourself?

Skylark, I love the blowing kisses at things in the oven, I'm going to do that with my christmas biscuits!

As for stir up Sunday, yes I have heard of it- but only because it's in the betty's recipe book! The whole family gather on stir up Sunday and each member has to take a turn stiring the ingredients to make the pudding

Pets are part of the family Skylark. They love a cuddle. Same with my nieces Staffy. She loves to be cuddled and stroked Yep, they do get bad press but she is so soppy you can take the food out of her mouth and not so much as a growl. Well not me but her family can 

Hiya Sweet

My day has been good fanks I hope yours has too

Of course you are allowed to giggle Sweet. I did

I only bought a couple of note books I needed. Total £1

Yes be aware, they are still animals !

Hi Summer, hope you had good day. Yes blow kisses at the oven. I do that with the Christmas turkey too, with hope its cooked properly, and no need for paramedics 

That's the mistake some people make when leaving their little ones with pets  unattended Skylark. No matter how quiet and sloppy animals are, they are still just that, animals.

 

And no i'm not saying all pets are like that but you have to be very careful

Quite agree! Bramble is gentle and loving but I'd never ever leave her unattended around small children!

Lol moonie, I love buying stationary! I collect touristy pencils

How's your sister settling in skylark?

Do you collect anything moonie?

Nope, I cant say I do Sweet I'm a little boring tbh

Sister hasnt slept well, she says she feels like she is in someone else,s house! I am sure she will settle.I felt a bit like that when i moved. 
Have to get off now. 
Sleep well everyone, take care 

I hope your sister soon settles in properly Skylark. I have been here for all but two years of my life but find it strange when I go elsewhere

 

Goodnight Skylark. Sleep well and have sweet dreams

I can relate to that skylark, I've hated not knowing my way around in the dark every time I've moved. The noises during the night are familiar too

Sweet dreams skylark I hope you sleep well

Its the creaking boards that are the worse

And not finding the light switches

Check this out moonie

Awww int that cute, Sweet

I guessed you have nodded off Sweet so nite nite. Sleep well and have sweet dreams

 

for Yogi and Sweet and any other night owls who may drop in....

 

Sweet dreams moonie I'm not far off now hope you sleep well

Time for you to log off and sleep now then Sweet. Fanks

Good morning everyone

 

Cloudy here, dry at present but it rained overnight and there's more in the forecast.

 

As the school with those false widow spiders is in the Forest of Dean in Gloucestershire, there's been a number of news stories in my local news. Quite a few of the local parents think the school over-reacted, could have waited a few days until next week and dealt with the spiders during the half term break without making this into a national news story. No child has been bitten by a spider and as one parent said, this is the forest, there's lots of insects there which can bite people.

 

good morning

A very dark, wet and horrid morning here today

Morning  everyone
Of course the school is down your way El, rather unpleasant! I expect health and safety stepped in!
Dark here this morning, didnt want to get up! 
Off into town before it gets busy, as i want to get sister a little gift from us. Then we going up to visit. probably wont be on today, so have a good one 

Good morning everyone, it's a nice bright morning after a load of rain last night.

 

I hope it was a restful night's sleep Yogi with no troublesome nightmares, they are so real aren't they?  Horrible.

 

I am sure your sister will soon feel at home Skylark, we don't like change most of us, do we?  It will take a bit of getting used to but she will probably feel right at home very soon.

 

My sister used to be a bit like that too moonie, we used to trail round the shops for hours and I ended up with not very much.  Think of all the money she saved you though

 

We are threatened with severe winds on Monday, really strong gales, I don't know whether it's the same all over the country but from the weather map it did look like that.  Not looking forward to it at all

 

Squiggle, the storm due for Monday does look as if it's a nasty one. Yesterday the Met Office issued a yellow warning for virtually the whole of England and Wales, with amber for the whole of the south coast - I think your area is just to the north of the amber area. Very unusual for the Met Office to be issuing an amber warning several days ahead.

Good morning Buddies

 

I love >>

 

We have rain at the mo but I see some clear sky so maybe things will look up a little later. However, that's not what the weather forecast say

 

I hope everyone has a great day, whatever the weather is like

Good morning everyone. No spider nightmares last night.

Weather is wet, miserable and dreary.

Not looking forward to the gales, I hate windy weather.

I hope you manage to find something nice for your sister, Skylark.

Squiggle, hubby gave my cake the thumbs up. I may have to hide it to stop him scoffing the lot.

 At the dog in the owl costume - it doesn't look impressed.

Have a good day everyone.

Phew that's good Yogi

@ Mr Yogi. Where you gonna hide the cake Yogi? *Makes plan of action to confiscate some of Yogis cake* *whistles*

I am glad the cake is such a success Yogi

The impending storm looks rotten, stock up on goods before then squiggle & El

I love the windy smiley too

How are you today moonie?

Skylark I hope you have a good day and find a present

The storm coming Sunday night/Monday has the potential to be the worst in 20 years and the amber warnings have been widened to cover much of the south half of the country.

 

I've just rung a client who does commercial and industrial roofing about this but they have already alerted their workforce to make sure that everything is secure.

 

Hi Sweet We still have sun here and its quite warm too

I feel fine fanks Hows you and your little bundle of Bramble?

I've just rearranged a client meeting from Monday evening to Tuesday evening when the weather should be a lot calmer. Although the wind is forecast to die down locally by Monday evening, they are forecasting torrential thunderstorms that evening.

 

It looking bad for some parts of the country El 

Monday's met office warning for wind and rain:

 

His latest scam to get another slice of cake, is to tell me we need to eat it quickly before the apples ferment.

Yogi, and of course if the apples in your cake do ferment then the cake could explode

 Somehow, I don't think the apples will get the chance to ferment.
