Morning Maddie ,Von and Belle :-)

Not too bad here at the moment in the far south.... Dull but dry.
Let's hope Pia doesn't stretch down this far, but I can hear a few whistles at times.
Keep safe all those in her path <3

Von.. That must have been quite a sight seeing coracles used in their natural setting.

Managed almost all of my list of 'Things to do' yesterday. Now onto today's list. ;-)

Belle, I love your optimism :-D
I too think of today as a turning point and new hope, even more so since my op. on this day 2 years ago.

Blowy is an understatement here Von…Tis horrendous…..gales and driving rain :-0 :-0

OH decided to go Xmas shopping at 9am….good luck with that I say…he was back by 10am :-D :-D :-D

I ventured down to the co-op for bread milk and a paper…that was bad enough :-0

Stay warm everyone <3

Afternoon All :-D <3

Wind has not ceased, I nearly got blown over this morning. Down by the canal the boats were bobbing around merrily. Sea sickness I reckon for the inhabitants!

Thank goodness you gave us warning Fly, otherwise I would only fret. ;-)

This morning was my cut off point, what I havent bought now.....tough!

Still one day ahead, convinced it is Saturday tomorrow. :-S :-S :-S

Afternoon everyone :-)

Goodness :-0 :-0
Keep safe Ann. It really does sound wild there :-| :-|

I had to smile re. John Lewis..... What are they like eh? ;-)
Hope your OH had success elsewhere.

Belle, I have done my best with the stable :-) More a case of covering the roof with a bit of flat fir tree.
I'm no expert.

Not too windy here, but the area has other problems. We are not that far from Euro-Tunnel and the ports. Any trouble with either places and the local area has traffic chaos.
French strikes cause a lot of road trouble on local roads and M20 motorway - a big chunk of which is now closed and cars diverted :-0 :-0
I feel sorry for people having to suddenly change travel plans :-| :-|

No Belle…..loads of trees and branches down in the county though…it has given it to calm down around 11pm then pick back up again in the early hours….traffic queuing on Deeside because of the Bridge closure…must be taking people forever to get from a to b :-( :-(
