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.

Good morning and thank you for starting off SO and Nelski.
It's not a bad morning here grey and windy but not too cold.
Did a bit of shopping yesterday, and the usual jobs.
Today - nothing planned, might scrub the backyard, it's all green and I hate it like that. We certainly know how to live.
Take care folks0 -
Morning all,
s-o what is wonder cake?
I didn't post yesterday because I had the opposite problem to some of you. As you were all waking at 3am for the day, I was just falling asleep. Note to self - do not take headache tablets with caffeine in them so close to bed time
I was awake again just after 6am so I was very tired all day.
Today is an easy day. I have to iron the HT's school uniform and anything else on the ironing pile (not much) and make a roast dinner. I've hauled the left overs from our New Year's roast out of the freezer for that so not a great deal of cooking.
aod is the better pattern for the trauma teddies on line anywhere please? These ones look a bit weird - sort of like cats without tails :rotfl:
Nannyw I hope you're not as sore today
Take care all of you

Morning all.
There are high winds, driving rain and low grey clouds here, seems set for the day. The wind was blowing all night too. Driving over the Rest yesterday was very hairy because of the wind. I'm glad I don't have to go out. Sometimes I think about getting a dog though it's days like this that make me glad I don't.
No big plans today. There's some forms to complete for my students but that's about it. No doubt things will change during the day.
I hope all is well with you all, or getting better.
Happy Sunday.0 -
Hi SO and Cranky, the thread is very quiet today, I hope dumpling is getting some sleep.
We went to see The Favourite last night, what a very weird film, but I didn't mind the historical inaccuracies as much as I normally do because it was so weird. It's when a film or series pretends to be historically accurate and then isn't that I get cross.
Laura is still here, Steve had his pneumonia jab yesterday and ended up not feeling very well, hopefully he will be a bit better today, but he is still sleeping, as is Laura. Steve also got his first appointments for the chemo, which is starting on the 21st.
We're hoping to see Chris and Crystal today and also Brian might arrive as well.0 -
Morning everyone. It’s dark here we have the lights on not a lot to do today. Roast chicken for dinner later. Rest of the washing to put away. Call at Tesco. We are also going to see my sil who has moved house to round the corner to us. She has downsized to a bungalow with 2bedrooms0

Morning all! Much better than I was although still have the dreaded cough, hot and cold and spinning head - not a la Linda Blair though...Me and my big mouth just had to say how easy i found it to sleep, so obviously, sleep was in short supply all week until it came very late...
Date has been set for op,week after next. It is not very warm here so I think the fire is going to go on in a minute. Couldn't be bothered to light it all this week, didn't have the energy to keep putting logs on it.
good news snoozer re the jab, hope it all goes OK for him..SO, you know you get to be as grumpy as you like don't you? or as happy....have you got any help yet? Holly, nice to see you , wotcha poppy...hope everyone else is having such a fantastic day that they're much too busy to post
Have a good one, and be careful out there......Non me fac calcitrare tuum culi0 -
Morning all
OH and I still feeling a bit ropey so we wont be doing an awful lot today, I have stripped the beds and got them onto wash so we need to remake them. We also MUST get rid of the td which is still out on the front garden and looks awful so that has to go today.
Will take madam on her walk later and that will be it we can both have a rest then.
Im not sure about dinner we have some pork chops so I might do them with some mash and veg, I think I will make up a chicken and chorizio tray bake for tomorrow night.
Hope everyone is well and has a good day xx0 -
Good morning everyone, had a quiet day yesterday after coffee club, watched a film but it wasn't Mr Turner, may watch that this evening. I'm going to meet a friend in Edinburgh later in the month, to go to see the annual January showing of watercolours from the Turner collection at the Scottish National Gallery.
There's only two of us doing the Sunday stroll today, and we're doing a short riverside route with a choice of coffee shops afterwards. Off to a friend's house in the afternoon for a game or two of canasta, and a blether.
Food today is very straightforward - the same soup as yesterday, and the second half of the turkey casserole I made yesterday.
Taff and snoozer, it's easier when you have the operation date and treatment dates to plan toward, rather than waiting without a definite date to go by.
Hoping everyone has the best Sunday possible. xxx0 -
Had a late night (nearly 1am before we headed to bed) after being out to see some friends and meet a few new people which was really nice. I hardly ever go out but am making a bit more effort this year to spend time with people who have shared interests, goals and values and be part of communities rather than being a hermit which I'm apt naturally to be.
Got up around 9am which is quite late for me, checked animals were all in order after such a windy night and it's still very blustery here in NW England.
I think it's probably a good idea for everyone to be under the duvet or at least blankets on the sofa today, what a lovely way to spend a winter Sunday.
We're having baked brie cheese (last of the Christmas stuff) in pastry with some veggies for dinner, can't wait, I love cheese
