Vj your son unlike mine and his son may look elsewhere for a career . My son was sucked in as a toddler and when my husband suffered the brain injury it was the photos of he and toddler son sitting in cabs together both diesel and preserved steam which we covered the walls with along with those on the preserved railway they volunteered on that started to bring the long term memory back . I used to sit reeling off engine numbers and he would tell me the class , where it was built and if it had a name that too . Sadly short term never came back and he couldn't remember anything of the attack or anything afterwards . We were happy he had the good memories especially when he was working the steam engines in his early years .


You love your music so I think you should compose a boring dirge entitled I need a woodburner and sing it on a daily basis in your OHs hearing . Just as waves erode rocks it might do the trick eventually . If he was a lover of steam engines include the positives of the living flames and reminders of the days of steam and roaring fires .

Prolly you are an unexpectedly evil genius.... :rotfl: we have a wood burning BBQ in the garden, I think he just CBA With the messs of having one put in.

Re DS, I still think he might end up on the railway...

I have approximately another three weeks of liquidising Mr.D's food.
So there are two ways of looking at this.

1) Liquidising - an accident just waiting to happen

2) Liquidising - a novel way to re-decorate the kitchen at 5am

I need more coffee.

Hurrah!

I have some washing visiting next weekend.
It may bring our son home with it :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

Gosh it's a really rude awakening to autumn today, it's much cooler here than it has been and we've had some 'out of the blue' very heavy showers which have sent the temperature plummeting in an instant. I've got 3 layers on now and am feeling much more comfortable than I was an hour ago. We've got a busy day tomorrow DD1 is singing a couple of solos in a concert to celebrate the poet John Clare in a country church nearby and I'm taking a guess that it won't be warm there either, I'm doing coffee and cakes so I'll at least be beside the urn for warmth and then we've rugby in the afternoon and that really will be arctic! I'm going to dig out thermal undies and sheepskin gloves and hat to put on before we go into the stadium Brrrrrrr...winter draws on chums xxx.

You're not wrong. I shall definitely have to find my winter drawers!


Took Mishka (Siberian Husky, so she probably doesn't notice the cold) for her walk this morning, and I was f-f-f-frozen!

Livingroom still warm and cosy at 26C here

You missed the 3rd, "Ah, so this is how modern art happens...."

In contrast to your autumn, it hit 34 degrees here yesterday, for which I was unprepared, and I stuck on the aircon like a wuss!
Mardatha, the aircon got as low as 26 :rotfl:
