    Hi Piglet -

    My parents are moving 4 doors down from their current house (which is many miles west of here and half way between me and thee my dear ;) !) Heaven forbid if they moved down here...:eek: ...my house would be up for sale like a shot :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

    Grommie says Hi to Speedy and sends randy rumblings down the internet to her :o (must be gpig equivalent of telephone sex :D )....ooops and now Iroko's telling Grommie to stay away from his girl or there'll be another nose bleed :rotfl:

    Hope things are settling down for you Hun as I know yo've not been on much recently....Big hugs to you from me and all the piggies :grouphug: :grouphug:


    Hello wol:hello:

    Ooops, sorry hunnie, i probably got the wrong end of the stick:rolleyes::rolleyes::rotfl::rotfl:the brain was more than likely left under my pillow that morning ...........again:o:o:rolleyes::rolleyes::D
    Anyway, tis good news that its four doors from them and not four doors from you then eh .........phew!!!! Say no more!!!:shhh::D

    Hee hee, for the randy- ramblings........ must talk quietly ......dont want Speedy getting all worked up here all on her little lonesome:eek::eek::eek::eek:

    Sorry i have been a bit of an absentee for a while hun, but trying to get my bum in gear and get back to normal service!!!;)

    Lots of love and hugs to you and the piggies, take care of yourself hunnie ;)

    Much love
    Piglet

  • Hi hun

    Just popping on to see how you are getting on - you HAVE been busy!!!!

    Am glad to hear that Grommie is back to his old self (randy little sod :D) and well done for getting the business in.

    I also read your post about your parents as them moving 4 doors down from you, my initial thought was 'BLOODY HELL - how will she cope???' am much relieved to hear that they are not.

    Anyhooo, I'll hopefully speak to you later this week (I fly out to America on Friday so will try to say hi before then)

    Take care and speak to you soon!!!!

    Well here we are again peeps......the stream burst it's banks at approx 11pm tonight :eek: ... and the water has inched it's way up to within 4 feet of my front door. :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: ....the bridge is overwhelmed so I am effectively marooned....and I have to admit a tad scared even though I'm relatively confident my flood doors should prevent the water coming into the house 202.gif

    Luckily it looks like it is now starting to recede.....and I might be able to try and get some shut eye soon. However another 5mm of rain is forecast between 3 and 6am which will set it off again _pale_ _pale_

    At least I had the foresight to park the car on the road, have moved everything I can to upstairs and ensured all the piggies are at least 30cm above ground level so should be safe and dry. (Funnily enough they were very fractious and noisy earlier.......until I moved those in the lower cages to the pet carriers on higher ground, then they all shut up - bless them, animals know..:A :A )

    To cap it all, drove for 5 hours today in !!!!!! weather to see most frustrating client.......arrived home to find extremely offensive and personally insulting letter from builders who it appears are going to fight all the way to court....... still no word from insurance company...and my last surviving torch gave up the ghost :mad:

    Pass the wine please..........:beer: :beer:
