Pops over the fence to Pippi's and waves..
Happy New Year folks and fab boots PippiBlackadder: Am I jumping the gun, Baldrick, or are the words 'I have a cunning plan' marching with ill-deserved confidence in the direction of this conversation?
Still lurking around with a hope of some salvation:cool:0 -

As for the Bitterns, I've seen one once, at Amwell, last year. Have looked again every time I've been back there since but never seen another!
Yup, it is Amwell! Lovely place! Saw a raven there once although I wasn't ale to id it myself so I can't be 100%. I don't think I have the patience for bitterns!
Re wellies, will look forward to post-modification pics if any occurs!! :rotfl:Weight loss: Start weight: 80kg; Current Weight: 77kg; Target weight: 55kg0 -
I think the wellies look great as they are - very cheery, Cheery, very youA positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort

The wellies do look great on you, Cheery - and I see evidence of stripy socks too
"Welly good" indeed :rotfl:
Pippi - hope Mr Stripes arrived safely, as Cheery says.2023: the year I get to buy a car0 -
Those ones are all mine
(Poundland, in case you're interested :rotfl:) Although I did get a couple of pink stripey pairs with little peedie dogs and paws on from under Pippi's Christmas tree

Right - phd for a while - bleurgh. Hope Mr Stripes arrived Pippi!
Yippee he's here - we both managed to almost slide into the house on the corner by the bridge (cheery will know the house) in different cars - poor people in that house how many times does that happen :eek:
Cheery we've started a club of two methinks - the yellow wellie club - yours look remarkably like mine (but much cleaner and cheaper well done, although mine are from work and technically free, but you have the cleaner of the two- remember to text me when you're out in them (I'll do the same) wouldn't want to both turn up wearing the same wellies (and socks)!:rotfl:
I had to have a lie down when I read the whispered comment by GG...................
*one day you'll find the right pair* they are a bit like blokes you have to try a few before you commit to one
I'm writing down in the 'utility' room - candles on for added scientific effect.
Got get back to it!

Well golly gosh Pippi's diary moves fast! I've only been away for a couple of days and it's taken me ages to catch up! :rotfl:
(Cheery - nice wellies! Look good and sturdy, which IMHO is crucial in a welly choice... well I am speaking from an agric point of view!)
It sounds like all has been a hive of activity! Fingers crossed for Mr Stripes' safe arrival too!
Sadly can't really participate in the birdies conversation, i feel we should put out some food in our garden but it isn't really a garden, just a small concrete yard with two bits of rope to act as the washing line...I really want a garden to play with! And space for chucks, given the crazy price I had to pay for free range eggs in Mr T's yesterday :eek:
