Good morning/afternoon everyone.
It’s raining! Going to be dry but cloudy later - maybe a thunderstorm (18% risk anyway).
Just sharpened all my chefs knifes with my trusty steel - going to be busy in the kitchen most of the day - dealing with yestermorn’s Sainsbury’s delivery. Bless whoever invented home vac pack machines!
Have a fun day!
Good morning ST and OFC members
It’s dark out! Oh wait, it’s 01:36am here!
It’s going to be a lovely day later!
Have a blessed day
Morning all.
3 am and alls well.
Morning everyone. Its 03:54 and was woken by party people calling to each other via whooping like howler monkeys. I know its dark and they can’t see each other but can’t they text instead?? Anyway I’ll probably go back for a nap shortly, but I’m pottering around at the moment. Have a lovely Sunday everyone! 
Everyone up at sparrow’s fart as someone said, possibly Enid Blyton???
At 5am I was feeding our local magpie.He’s having to work hard feeding chicks on his own since his partner was killed on the road outside.
Good morning all of you early birds, and good morning to all to join us later.
Cloudy and spitting with rain here but a warm day forecast apparently 
Just about to leave for the forest now with the dogs, but a pretty light agenda for later so I’ll just await events and go with the flow I guess.
Have a pleasant Sunday everyone 
Good morning Barry and those to come yet.
Up bright and early this morning, got a Painter coming this morning to paint our Lounge Ceiling.
Have a nice day all.
It seems a long time getting light this morning, so sure sign that winter will soon be here … roll on spring 
Hi
Been out to the Sunday Market and also failed to get some diesel even at this early hour.
Last warm dry day so I need to get out into the garden to get more done ready for winter.
Have a good day all.
Good morning - A grey day out there. There is a 50th Birthday in the family today, so cake later.
Our son’s new TV has turned into a saga. It is so wide that the feet won’t fit on the TV stand. Got to go there this morning to help put a new stand together and transfer the Sky and surround-sound boxes into it, then connect the TV and tune it in. I don’t want to do it.
Wall mount?
I thought about that but the top would have to be better than MDF or standard thickness chipboard because of the overhang there would be at either end of the existing cabinet …and the weight of the TV. Neither he or I had anything that would do the job. It would have been me that had to go and get something for the purpose and make it work,
I get pretty over-committed catering for family needs at times, so a new stand delivered to his place seemed the easiest way.to go. I hope it turns out to be.
Morning all.
I’d bought a new Dunelm unit before ordering my new 50” tv. And I was the same, didn’t check if wide enough, but fortunately it is, just about. Maybe has about 6” spare either side, with the way the legs splay outwards. I couldn’t go wider with the unit as it has to fit into the bay, with a little spare room to the side.
Yesterday I pulled everything off and out, so I could get to the windows. Wanted to clean them, and the shutters. (Should really have taken down the nets for washing. Gah!). What a palaver then remembering which cable goes where. Attached to the tv I have the Sky box, a blu ray player and then yesterday I found the mains cable for the dvd/vhs combi unit and got that going. I have a two way HDMI adaptor but reckon I should get one with more slots. I was shattered afterwards and needed my shower.
Have to take a few things from the car today before it goes in for repairs in the morning. Hoping I can get fuel for topping up the courtesy.
That wouldn’t be a solution for where the TV needs to be.
Fair comment Mart, good luck with it anyway.
I wasn’t with our son when he bought the TV. I probably should have been. His lounge isn’t very big and I tried to tell him not to choose a bigger TV but he did anyway. Gone from 55" to 65". It’s going to be like sitting in a cinema.
Another dry day, have to put the daffs in, but with clay soil its difficult getting the conditions just right. Enjoy your day, beautiful and sunny here at the mo.
Good morning everyone 
a misty start for the last of the warm days.
I am going to my son’s house this morning and maybe for a walk . I haven’t been up for ages and it will be lovely to see them all but no hugs 
all the children have had back to school colds and I don’t want one of those.
I am hoping I have enough petrol for a couple of short trips this week. I am certainly not joining any long queues which started at 6am around here yesterday I am told.
Enjoy your day 
Good morning all, a nice sunny start to the day today, but cloud is forecast later. Well like many others, I’ve been caught out on this crazy fuel panic buying situation, and have only about 85 miles left according to the car’s computer estimate. Hopefully I’ll be able to fill up sometime this week because I have regular commitments during the week which would make life difficult for others if I can’t drive!
Hope you get your son’s TV sorted @mart. Got to say I’m puzzled why TVs just keep getting bigger and bigger - why? Why do people all want these huge screens in their rooms? It just seems odd that while so many people live in ever smaller houses, TVs - and furniture - are getting ever larger 
No plans for today, but probably stay close to home as I don’t want to use my precious fuel 
. Have a good day everyone
