    Possibly. :(

    I will have to reserve judgement, but the road markings showed two new drain grids. However, they have only constructed one. Running from that to where the other one should have been, they've made a very shallow channel..... in concrete. confused-smiley-013.gif

    I don't recall having seen anything like this before, but the acid test is whether it works. action-smiley-009.gif

    We have sheep again! :j

    Our busiest two days of the month as we preview, research and buy.

    Naturally this calls for GD1 to have to go to hospital for a check-up after a head bang, taken by DD1's hubby as DD1 is off organising a christmas event.

    Research gives way to babysitting the other GDs :(

    Ah well, who needs money :o

    Is GD1 ok??? , and can you manage without new stock??? are there any booties around on the weekend? so at least you could try and get some bits, Don't forget the place on the enterprise zone not too far away from us... I honestly don't know if it's just tat or what, but I know booters now go there regular to buy stuff...

    Congrats Itsme :beer:

    GD1 back sporting a very impressive rapidly darkening bump, but still a bit shocked so it will be good for her to get back home.

    CTC, we should get a fair bit of stuff in tomorrow, we'll see how it goes and do boot top ups as needed. Next local auction is end Jan so thats a longer than usual buying break.

    What lovely news Itsme :j
    Taking responsibility one penny at a time!
  • Thank you LIR & Rhiwie. Strawberry pink flavour.

    Just seen this
    http://www.northdevonjournal.co.uk/VIDEO-Lynton-goat-rescued-getting-entangled-fence/story-20302685-detail/story.html

    I admire the guy for trying (obviously not used to handling goats. The matador approach was a good idea but he hadn't thought through the next stage ;))but the woman & the guy who was, obviously, more interested in filming than helping were less than useful.
