This is an “over the garden fence” type thread where we chat about everything Old Style and maybe a little bit more. It’s a great, inspiring and motivating thread we start each day to discuss what Old Style things we’re going to do today or what we’ve achieved already. Everyone’s welcome, please do come in, put your feet up (although check the fence hasn’t just been painted first!) and join us for an Old Style natter. The more the merrier!

As this is the Old Style Board, it would be appreciated if posts could include some Old Style content. Please be aware that many people may have small screens, or SLOW internet connections, so please don’t post large pictures, or clip art – links are preferred. When you make a post, if you feel like giving it a title, that will help others that don’t have the time to read everything skim through the thread quickly but if not it's not a problem. Please do not start a new daily thread before you go to bed at night because this often leaves things confusing with two daily threads live at the same time. The idea is that a member would start each new daily thread after they get up in the morning.

Morning :wave:

Up early for travels again this morning. Off to the lakes for a half day course. Its a long way to go for a 3hr session but it may lead to some more work if I play my cards right.

Mums 88th birthday today so depending on what time I'm finished I may try to drop in on the way back. We had a birthday lunch yesterday which went remarkably well so maybe age is softening her :D She did worry me though ...I showed her a picture that had popped up on my FB timeline of dad holding a birthday card for her. Now granted the card was covering him a bit but her comment was ...oh yes I think I know the face :eek::eek: yes mum you were married for 62 years :( I'm storing these up for now till I really do need to take action which is not yet but I just wish she would visit the doctor but I'm afraid no amount of tricks or deception will get her there

oops seems bella had started one apologies can someone merge

Right Im off to work have a good day all
