Ha, I'll pass it on. He is a funny guy, although some people think he's borderline annoying!

Speaking of sometimes annoying. I was catching up on my youtube subs yesterday, saw this video and thought of Birdie! Mainly because they go to Harry Potter Land/World/whatever it's called Didn't know they actually made the really gross jelly beans like in the book! Blergh.

Morning all. Got a beautiful bunch of tulips (my favourites) delivered to me this morning from Max and the new Adele CD. What a clever boy he is to pick all that!

We heard some terrible new last night. BIL's friend & another guy are fishermen and there boat went missing on Friday. They found the boat destroyed and washed up quite a bit away yesterday morning and they also found some belongings of the men. They have divers looking for them now. I never met the fella but I can't stop thinking about it. He was only married 6 months and was an experienced fisherman.

I don't know how his wife and family will get through this

Thats really sad news CMD, hopefully they managed to get washed up and they are ok. The sea could have easily carried the boat further

Gosh that's horrible CMD, I hope they got to a lifeboat or something.

Brother working on the garden today again, I'm not sure I can afford him! So far he's broken the garage key by opening the door while it was still in and it smashed off in the lintel, broken off in the lock. Less than an hour later he's broken our sledgehammer straight down the shaft - a shaft that has a big sticker saying 'lifetime guarantee' on it - so NIM has got in the car to take it back to toolstation see if they'll give us a replacement. Worryingly this is the 3rd lifetime guarantee hammer we've gotten through in a year - I'm not sure builders have such a tool turnover!

Thanks Poolie.

Unfortunately the boat was washed up (the ruins) to the shore.

Thanks Wendz. Just found out the other guy on the boat has 6 and 9 year old daughters. It is just so sad.

Oh CMD that's terrible news i hope that they are found! I guess it makes us appreciate the things we have and the people we have around us!

Morning all,

CMD - it is really sad. My thoughts are with all who know them.

First day of maternity leave and was awake very early as i expected. We are driving back up to Hertfordshire later and then I can start to finish being organised for this baby.

What dreadful news CMD, have you heard any more?

Dinah, what are your lot doing to these poor sledgehammers to have gone through 3 already?!

Where did you get all of your jars etc for your sweetie buffet? My brother is having one at his wedding and I said I'd help out but not sure where to look apart from charity shops, which are rubbish around me!
