Just seen on the Alba FB page but only really any good if you live/work/study in Edinburgh - that where they are based.

Or have a train pass

Or just a good excuse to go in that direction ...

Firstly in the South West its going to be windy all weekend. How do I know? Well my cherry tree is in blossom and it always windy when that happens and all the blossom is gone in 2 days.
Secondly are Bold Udis and Shades working for home delivery at the moment. Please and thank you.
Accounting software broken at work so boss told me to stay home today. Bit annoying as I am self employed and could do without losing 7 hours pay. So been up since 7.30 ( sis on hold in Budapest called me for a chat! ) and already sorted a load of paperwork and on 3rd cup of t.

I know what you mean, we call it the cherry blossom wind:o

Off to move some glitch boxes into the garage, have an Estate Agent coming to value the house tomorrow, hoping to get it on the market in the next few weeks so better get a wriggle on.

Hope everyone has a lovely day.

FC hope all goes well with your OH's move x

Yes I will post a pic cause its a lovely tree and my dear departed Dad planted it when we moved here 30 years ago. So I always think of him when it blossoms

Morning rose, hope your cherry blossom stays longer this year, it's so pretty to see.

I'm off too. OH is moving to a rehabilitation centre this weekend so going to assist with his packing and stuff.

I might stop off and buy some tomato plants on the way home. None of my tomato seeds have made an appearance yet very slow this year.

Have a good day all

thanks for saying your tomato plants did not appear, was thinking i was rubish gardener on my 3 plantings of tomato seeds started feb and only have 20 1 inch tall plants, most have not started and what has will not grow, think the garden centre seems a good idea;) xxx

Good morning all, lovely sunny day here



OK, I'm going to join in with the political rants just this once.

Scotland is against the UK, in that the SNP wants independence.

Taken from their own webpage "The SNP is a social democratic political party committed to Scottish independence. The party has been at the forefront of the campaign for Scottish independence for over seven decades. "

Who do you think pays for all the extras you get? It is the Barnett formula, under which you get about £1200 extra over and above what we English get per person per annum.

You want fairness, lets scrap that and even out what is given to all the areas in the UK.

And while we are about it, stop your people voting on the laws that only apply to the English (example above). Scottish MPs voted in tuition fees for England, I don't notice tuition fees in Scotland. Wales, Northern Ireland and Scotland have their own parliaments/assemblies in which English cannot vote, why should you vote on English laws?

Oh, and no baying and jeering in parliament? Maybe dissent is not allowed?

Rant over.

PS, if anyone bar the above op reasonably requests me to remove this then I will, just angers me sometimes.

I honestly think that the majority of Scottish peeps are for the uk its just the snp will not accept the outcome of their peoples votes.

I totally agree with the rest of your post. its the snp alienating the rest of the uk not the Scottish people. I was not voting tory this time but I feel I have to to keep labour out as they will be puppets to the snp.
and my vote will count as whoever wins Swindon always end up in government.

I feel I upset a few of my Scottish friends on here at times so will not comment again about this. but please note the snp are alienating me, and my whole family are Scottish. so it upsets me greatly to see this rift dividing our nation.

my brother even voted for independence. :eek::(

The country is run by a clique of Eton boys who are into politics purely and solely for what they can get out of it.

Forget all the pretence of living in a democracy. Convicts are not even allowed to vote for anyone. How dark-age is that?!!! :eek:

they are also not allowed to break the law.
