Good idea! it's raining and horrible here too!

We have an excellent library FPK, don't worry about books, you'll have plenty. If you all set sail now, you could be here by next Australian summer. Has anyone sorted out the elephant yet?

Grey, cold, windy & pelting down here. Can I come on the new adventure please? ........please, please, pretty please? I promise I'll do spider and snake duty

Oh yes silva, we were reckoning on you to steer our course. You and Hester, being our nautical advisors, are the expedition leaders. Floss you leave those wellies at home, we have ordered a completely dry trip. That is dry as in rain less, you understand. I'm not promising champagne LW, you sybarite you, but I'm sure softstuff will be providing suitable refreshment.

Everyone is coming out of the woodwork now. Even burtha has said that she will go too, in fact she will go anywhere as long as it's not here. She will even bring her running shoes so that if docky can't find any dingoes to race she can give him a run for his money.

Meanwhile, back here on earth..............
I lay in bed when woken far too early by Millie doing her morning exercises, mentally planning my day. DS2's birthday so must get up there to deliver card etc. My baby is 46! I am also having my hair cut, which involves a 2 mile round trip walk. And it's blowing a gale and raining cats and canines, oh lovely. And its my fast day so no cooking but I will have to get some cottage cheese while I'm in the village.

Having sorted my day, I glance at my clock/calendar/barometer thingy. Ah! It's not Thursday at all, we are in Wedneday and luck. So no wet walk.

Dementia beckons.

THOUGHT FOR TODAY

Be decisive. Right or wrong, make a decision.
The road of life is paved with flat squirrels who couldn't make a decision.

Floss, it's just moved to jumper weather now here. And that's because I'm acclimatized, for the rest of you it's t-shirt weather now If the boat is scheduled to arrive in December, you'll likely all need to be near nude. Don't tell Hester, she'll take it very literally. Come to think of it, don't tell FPK, she'll just wear cling film.

Silvasava, if you can do snakes and spider duty, sod the visit, you can move in

Y'know, if any one of you lovely nutters (or me) ever win the lottery, wouldn't it be fun to actually make this a reality?

DH has just commented ' That would be one big bloody party' Yup!!!!

I can bring h/m gin, wine, beer & limoncello for refreshments and h/m jam for the breakfast toast
