Persie,

I think that Suzi might have been spinning you a feline. After all nobody is purrfect.

Sorry to turn your breakfast down Sylvs... I ate at MCs.. with the cats Eric meowed to Ernie make the Tea Urn and he did no problem... Marie has them well trained. No doubt one of them lights her ciggies for her as well.

I did ask about that but Suzi said there was a claws in her contract that she only sits and gets waited on... Eric pawsed at that remark and Ernie got stuck into the wine and is now catatonic.

Persie .......


I'm not sure


The police have seemingly stopped such a truck and been talking to the driver

I presume there would be some sort of court case IF it happens to be true


However, the bridge is around 60 years old.

In 2010, it's structure was rated as fine .............................. BUT the bridge is now much too small, and is one of about 1500 bridges in the State of Washington alone, that desperately need to be replaced.


Something will have to be done pretty quickly .................. you can hardly leave an Interstate highway disconnected!


If it goes as has happened in the past .................. they will put a Bailey bridge across the river to provide a temporary solution.

Bailey bridge being those bridges that army engineers put up during the war.

Could very well be and if so ??? what happens next??

SylviaInCanada

SylviaInCanada Report 24 May 2013 05:26

one report is saying that a man was driving behind a big lorry, and he saw it scrape against one of the girders .................. so the media's wondering if that could be a reason

I'm just listening "agog" to my radio .......

.......... a span of a 4-lane bridge about 130 km (or about an hour's drive) south of us in Washington State has collapsed. It happened about 7 pm, or about 90 minutes ago (it's still Thursday here)

it looks as if the span just dropped down

It's the Interstate 5 bridge over the Skagit River near Mount Vernon

There are about 3 cars with people in them in the river, and the rescue boats have just got the first couple of people on board. Not sure how many people are in the water.

Thank you MC for your kitchen help...

will make my own plunger coffee, bring my own sandwiches and not ignore the cats.

One only ignores a cat at one's peril.. they are likely to drape themselves all over you, your sandwiches and coffee and tell you "it's all about them"

prrrp...

I got cat food Cynthia ...........

Does anyone want me to do breakfast in the morning?

On the countertops:
Kettle - boil it yourself
Water - it's in the tap
Coffee (instant), teabags and sugar are in the chrome canisters. If you want herbal teas or real coffee you'll have to rummage in that cupboard that's hard to open.
Eggs - they're in the china hen, they don't have a best before date because they came out of my friend's chicken. It was sometime recent.

On the windowsill:
Carton of Marlborough Lights, with a selection of lighters (the last one you try will work).

In the fridge:
Milk (sniff it first, if it smells dodgy or looks lumpy have your tea/coffee black)
Jams - they're fine if you scoop that white stuff off.
2 leeks
Rhubarb trifle
Assorted white wines (don't touch that Veuve Clicquot or you're dead) - if you want red it's in the rack.
Some beer brought back from San Francisco 5 years ago.

On the breakfast bar:
Wholemeal and sliced white - OK so it says use by 21st, it'll do for toast.
Ashtray.

If you want anything else the corner shop opens 8 am.

First one in the kitchen has to feed the cats. Make sure Eric and Ernie get the same (they like the chicken and brown rice sachets best) but Suzi will want something different (don't give her the beef in tomato sauce if you're on litter tray duty). Change their drinking water several times because Suzi likes to wash her paws in it. Don't let Ernie lick your toast if he's been sniffing Suzi's bum.
