That pine/fir cone is huge, Farway. Sorry, Less, I'm pretty sure it was you that gave us a lesson on pine and fir cones a while back and I've failed dismally to remember which is which.

I think Dusty has left a clue in the caption ...    Love the roof and bum

Evening Less, getting a bit wild and windy out there now but as Bluey said, it's autumn weather.
Mind I'm usually going swimming in the sea in these weeks because it's still warm and pleasant.
Wonder if they've made the trip in double quick time with the wind behind them?

This is why I complain about the moss on my roof, twopenny, it's all gone a bit mad. I'm not so sure about the insulation properties, I'm worried it acts like a big sponge.

Less, I didn't 'twig' from Farway's Spruce pic - it's a pine cone!!   

I hope YBE gets clear skies - there's a BIG Aurora incoming over the next couple of nights, if the forecast is to be believed. Look up to the skies, folks

I thought I was going to get another Wordle in one this morning, but I was just one letter off. I always seem to do well with my guesses in the wee small hours (I've been awake since 3.30am).

Forecast is a bit rubbish for this week - lots of rain. However, the week after looks hopeful...

Just seen this on the BBC website - looks like YBE is in the right place (if she's in the Lake District)..

Just checking in not caught up with posts.
I am now in week 3 of lurgy,  mainly cough and tiredness now. Thanks for good wishes, and hope other lurgyites are feeling better soon.
Work has been busy and I am getting harassed over Xmas working ,really not in the mood for it and was feeling like carp anyway I wanted to tell them stick it where the sun don’t shine. And that’s not like me at all. 

Enjoy your week off YBE I have today to work then I’ve 6 days off . Bring it on.
