Chit Chat Thread (Part 2)

Good morning all.
Yes it is also very cold here as well. Frost on the grass as we strolled around the fields.
I got to use one of my Christmas prezzys just now. That was a Karcher window cleaner, and just sucked up the condensation on the windows. I like it oh yes I like it.
Not a lot to do this morning, but this afternoon I am going for a cuppa and cake to my friend. Only lives a 6 minute drive away.

Morning all.

If you want to see what Iā€™ve been up to this morning, please read my post on the good morning thread.

I could do with one of those, Emjay. My porch windows needed wiping down last night, with dry cloths. Edited. Screwfix do one, half price, but not a known brand or name.

Good morning all.
Brrrrr. Oh yes it is a cold and frosty morning. My weather station said it was -2.2c earlier and now says -1.5c.
But the sun is shining in a blue sky.
I have to go out later as I need a couple of things, not going in the car as it is difficult to park where I am going, so I shall get the bus.

Good morning Emjay and all to followā€¦

A good frost here too but no surprise really, had to come sooner or later I guessā€¦

Just a trip out to see my mum and call in at the B&Q but nothing else on my agenda, so maybe a film or a jigsaw this afternoon but weā€™ll seeā€¦

Enjoy your day everyone :blush:

Afternoon all.

I was a tad busy this morning as I wanted to catch the 10.20 bus into town. I still donā€™t feel I should drive just yet, maybe tomorrow. Still got a bad headache and woke up every 2 hrs in the night, despite having pain killers. We were in bed by 8.30.

Did such a lot in town, so a successful trip.

Right, the dog is staring at me, so Iā€™d best get her out. Laters.

Good morning all, its very cold and was raining last night.
Nothing doing as usual.
Janet, did you got your battery sorted out for your laptop?
Have a nice day all.

Good morning all, cold here again and more snow showers forecast for later, brrrrā€¦

Just back from Tescos but nothing planned for the day, just see what turns up I guess, Iā€™m ever hopefulā€¦

Have a pleasant day everyone :blush:

Good morning all.
Again the sun is shining and blue sky, but I donā€™t think it will last as I see heavy clouds approaching from the west.
Done my morning stroll around the fields. I noticed that some children in the school grounds were gathered in a crowd with not many wearing masks. And is it any wonder that the plague is still active.
Nothing planed for today yet. So just let it happen.

Morning I had a really bad night, coughing all night, pain all night, ended up falling asleep at 4am and got up again at 7am.

Have a nice day all.

Morning all.

Still trying to sort out sisterā€™s gas card issue. Have now put out an appeal on a local FB page, see if anyone has a spare. No out let, anywhere, has Bulb cards. She is off to her older daughter today, maybe overnight. She has some gas but is not sure the card the engineer gave her will work for a top up. My fault, I should have agreed for a new one to be sent out yesterday when talking to them. I have sent another emergency email, but will try and call later, after dog walk, if no response.

Susie, no, not had time! I have either been feeling unwell, or busy with other things. I havenā€™t made up my mind whether to try the computer shop near me, or take it to Hughes service centre for diagnostics. Maybe Monday. Tummy trouble this morning now.

Good morning all.
A late one for me, but who is counting? No one, as I can do what I want,
Very well planed this morning, as I got up late I thought I would take Minnie out before I did my daily chores. That was a result, for as I got back, it started to rain.
Already got the second laundry in the machine, and first one in the dryer.
I feel sorry for you ladies, with all your health problems. I think some would say that it the penalties of getting old. Fear not, I am also getting older, and also have a few aches here and there.

Yes, commiserations from me too to all of you that are suffering, as Emjay says itā€™s just the price we pay for getting old which, as we know, isnā€™t for wimpsā€¦ :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:

Iā€™m feeling pretty good today so Iā€™ll be in the kitchen baking and cooking lunch, my favourite pastimes.

Wishing you all a better day and sending (((hugs))) to those that need themā€¦ :blush:

Thanks for the hugs. Well received.

Bulb have replied saying a new card has now been issued, and that the meter top up should last till she gets the card. Huh! She phoned to say after the Ā£5 top up, just Ā£2.50 remains, after one bath, and heating, since last night. So I have replied to their email telling them just that. She will leave her heating on low while out, but said not to book another engineer. Stubborn? Not half.

At least she has now come round to the idea of changing the meter to a continual supply. Hurrah.

I have texted the lady dog sitter near me asking if she has a free day to have Holly so I can have a day to myself. Hoping I feel well enough soon to do just that. The man is fully booked till end of the month. Not sure is she is eligible for the Creche now, as it has been too long and she would need a compatibility test again.

Off to have a shower. Hopefully.

Just heard someone talking about Heaven & Hell!

It would be great if we were given a guided tour before we went permanently?

It would be awful if you arrived in one of them only to find that all of your mates went to the other one?

:innocent:

Good morning all.
Cold but sunny and blue sky. I am not fooled as there is more rain to come later.
Done my morning stroll, and I could not believe that they allowed play on the pitches yesterday. They did a better job than a plough could have done.
Nothing planed so will just let it happen.

Morning all, blue sky here too and chilly, but cloudy and rain for later they sayā€¦

The dogs have been walked and after our brew we are going to tackle a huge phormium in the front garden, itā€™s taken over so has to go! No other plans so maybe a film later.

Enjoy your day everyone :blush:

Morning all.

Changing bed linen today, and putting on the bed a new, double, electric blanket. Morrisons were selling them for Ā£16

For main meal, will heat up a Morrisons chunky steak pie, with spuds of some sort and veg.

Morning all itā€™s 3:36am so I have no idea what kind of day itā€™s going to be, but it will be great none the less.

Morning everyone, no frost here (only just!) and a dry day forecast so thatā€™ll do for meā€¦

Just a trip to the tip on my agenda and call in at the pet shop for some ear drops as Alfie seems to have acquired an ear mite infestation, just hope the potion does the trick and saves an expensive trip to the vetā€¦

Wishing you all a pleasant day :blush:

Good morning all.
Sort of a damp looking day here. I think I just felt some rain when I went to put some rubbish in the bin.
Just got a bread on the go that will finish about eleven, and will be cool enough for my lunchtime sandwiches.
Yes Barry. Owning a pet is a cash cow for vets these days. You have to try your own remedies if you can.
