    Evening all.

    Just to let you know that in spite of it being a bit dreich down here, I feel a lot better today but bafflingly, I cannot seem to make sense of anything I write. I've spent the last 20 minutes attempting to pm my dear mum, :D , but I keep deleting it, then typing, deleting, typing and so on. Put it down to me being tired, well,, completely shattered is more like it. I'll try and get a good nights' sleep and hopefully make more sense tomorrow.

    Martyn.

    (dreich?? Oh dear, I've reverted to the dialect again. I fear the higher latitudes are a-calling ;) )

    Hi, this is the Daily Thread for 15 march. This is an “over the garden fence” type thread where we chat about everything OS and maybe a little bit more. It’s a great, inspiring and motivating thread we start each day to discuss what 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 OS natter. The more the merrier!

    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, we’re a laid back bunch here so you won’t hear any complaints. 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

    Some people who chat here like to try to answer everyone. Don’t feel you have to though, a general “hi everyone, hope everyone’s well” type start does just as well.

    Hi early today, kids been up since 5 so just took them downstairs:rolleyes:

    my kids are slightly deranged i think, they put on toy story 2 to watch but are they watching it in english? NO! they have put it on french and are in hysterics everyime someone speaks:rotfl:

    susie

    OMG that reminds me of when I recorded a Gaelic version of Postman Pat and put it on for our son. He looked rather confused, then I put a bought English version on and let him watch.

    It was so funny and worth it:D
    An average day in my life:hello: :eek::mad: :coffee::coffee::coffee::T :o :rotfl: :rotfl: :p :eek::mad: :beer:

    How about we forget the "dear mum" bit and try "big sister" who is only half your height :j
