Been there,done that. Actually it was a young Australian plumber who we got to alter some pipe work in the shower room to make it fit a new radiator.When he turned the water back on, his joint blew and water was shooting out everywhere. He was screaming for OH to turn the water off, but in the meantime it came down through the ceiling of the newly decorated utility room underneath it

Hello Linda and Tec. Just you two this morning/evening?

Good evening/morning to each and every one.

Linda, I have sent you an email. The information you sent was fantastic.

Tec, early morning is fantastic whether it be in summer or winter.

As for the sound of music in the hills, perhaps the lambs were singing "We'll never find another Ewe" :0))

Yes, Linda, I'm a callous b*st*rd. It comes from the years spent doing meat inspection in the abattoirs :0))

Just make a mental note of where your buckets and bowls are - then there will be less panic - but I know you never panic, being a cool blonde LOL

Hello Sue, I was late this morning as I was digesting the information which Linda sent to me.

You weren't supposed to eat it Allan, just read it. It was Tec who I was saying was heartless, those poor mummy sheep looking for their lambs.

I have your email Sue and will have a good look tomorrow

Good Morning Sue, and Allan,

Hope you're both well - Allan I can appreciate the pleasures of the early morning, but don't think I have the stamina to do it too often.

CC....Will be along later I expect - I did let her out of the attic, but it's a long walk home for her from Wales.

Good evenin/morning everyone! A little earlier to-day because I have an appointment so I arrived here and started reading until I realised I have read those posts - it's still 'to-day' where you are - and I've been reading 'yesterday'. No wonder it took so long!

(that's not a good way to start the day, is it?)

LindainHerriotCountry Report 21 Jun 2010 23:17

Oh hello Berona, I am really pleased to see you, I miss you posting

Allan

Allan Report 21 Jun 2010 23:17

Good morning Berona.

I try to remember the page number I was on when I leave and then start afresh from there.

The problem is that I usually forget the page number!

Good Morning Berona,

Hope you're well, better anyway. You sound confused, now I'm confused, it is still today here, but I think it's tomorrow in Sydney, or is it the day before tomorrow?
Lovely to see you, whatever day it is.

Tec.

I have been looking Sue, but they are not coming to light,they were not in the street they were in in 1901 and I have looked at lots of possibilities, to no avail.
I must go to bed now, so I will continue tomorrow, but it is not looking good. I think I have used all my luck up on Allan today.

Goodnight everyone

Sue - If it's Friday with you, can you tell me how England did with their match against Slovenia on Wednesday? - and can you tell what the mid-week lottery numbers were?

Tec.

Goodnight and thanks for having a look, Linda.

Tec - England beats Slovenia 3-0. We don't get the lottery results here so no go I'm afraid:-))

Allan - I'm so pleased that Linda has found some info. for you. Linda has helped me so much with my brick walls. Clever lady:-))
