    Morning, well done on the wins everyone. Hope your DD is ok Verksies. I was at work yesterday but have a few days off now. Came out of work last night and there was a small amount of snow on ground which had frozen before it hit the ground so it crunched underfoot.There wasn't any snow a few miles away where i live.Hope everyone has a lucky end of month.

    :hello: Good morning all


    Brrrr! froidbonnet2.gif Yet another chilly start to the day. I hadn't
    realised that we'd had a sharp frost yesterday in the early
    hours (after the rain), until it was light outside. Yikes! Had to
    tread with caution when I went out for my walk! The forest
    looked stunning though.


    This morning we have frost, ice & a glimmer of sunshine!

    Morning everyone :)

    Sheils - When I was younger it was noddy and budgie the little helecopter and then when my brother was born it was Teletubbies. I think the most amazing thing about in the night garden is that it was only on for 5 years and I think it was 2011 that they stopped making new ones yet 8 years later kids are still in love with them!


    Hope you had a lovely day yesterday chocolatelover, did you
    manage to do a bit of decluttering? :D

    When I was a little'un, I used to love watching 'Bill & Ben the
    Flowerpot Men' :p but mum ended up banning the programme
    because apparently I started copying the way they spoke
    (Oddle Poddle)! :eek: “Babap ickle Weed” :rotfl::rotfl:

    Just very frostie here so far but brr...

    Verksies hope your little Daughter is a lot better. Well done on the RAF book win.

    Enjoy your days off Indie. Hope you have a good rest.

    Yes, Alfie it was worth the track in the cold to see Nina and she was a lovely person to talk to. DH has had a look and found 7 Billy Holiday Vinyls and 16 CDs among his vast Jazz collection.

    Take care everyone and keep warm. Hood luck with end of months everyone.

    Fresh fall of snow through the night so been back to square one here!
    DH had hair cut appointment at 10am so walked down rather than try and get car out. Just enough to be annoying as they are only clearing the main roads. This is a bus route and usually gets done but not this time.


    I used to like The Woodentops if I remember right. Didn't like Andy Pandy!


    Glad you enjoyed the gig leanfun.


    Well done on book win Verksies.
