Good afternoon Folks, the rain has stopped at the moment, but very blustery. After telling the OH to be careful with one of those slicer blades the type that has three blades circling around it, I put my hand into the box that its kept in and sliced open one of my fingers, fortunatly not too deep as the bone stopped it, well I have had lectures about how I should take care with these things, as every time I do something using that hand the cut opens up and bleeds quite a lot, you would think I was 6 instead of-- and a half. Well I wish you all a good afternoon, as I now have to get ready to pick up grandchildren, and I think I am going to run out of blood before OH runs out of lectures. Good day

You'll be ok rary, let the blood drain & top up fluid levels with "general aenesthetic" instead hic

I do not like shots, shorts, spirits (including the ghost type) anything unless it is sweetened like amaretto or a baileys and i do not have a sweet tooth so i always stick to the vino (and beer) and am on glass numero 2 it has been a very long hard day.

Evening all, went out shopping and when I came back my blow away was half way down the garden. Terracotta pots smashed to bits, cuttings from geraniums crushed, earth everywhere and plant pots strewn over the lawn. Tidied it all up, by pushing the blowaway and contents against the wall of the house to chuck when we have a dry day and hosed down the paths! Came in to make a coffee...you've guessed it, another gust of wind and wham, down it came again! It's still on the ground. To think all those storms we have had and it has stood strong, two gusts of wind and down it came! That just topped off a very stressful day! Hey ho, that's the way of the world I guess!

[Jay22]

Well done again rary...that looks like a lovely gift. Enjoy the books!

[rary]

Dont worry Jay, once you get it seccured against the wall I think you will have a chance to relax, as I dont think we will have a dry day this side of the New Year

[Jay22]

Well it's going in the bin in the New Year or whenever we get a dry day. The wind has completely destroyed the blooming thing!

Back down to Rhyl tomorrow for Christmas. A day earlier than planned because don't think we will get off the island after then as the weather is expected to be quite bad. So if I don't get chance to drop in before, have a Very happy Christmas.

Hope you have a Happy Christmas SP and the weather is kind to you. Will you be back by new Year?

[bramble]

sorry to disappoint you Bramble
When is the Winter Solstice?

When is the Winter Solstice?

Winter solstice traditionally falls on December 21, although this year it will fall on the 22nd for the same reason we have leap years: the Earth’s orbit of the sun actually takes 365.5 days, so each year the solstice is pushed back by six hours.

Thanks for that info Aberdeen Plotter, but to tell you the truth I was too busy today to even notice it.☺

Back home after a hectic day at the panto.. Grandkids returned to their parents and this granny and grandad are pretty much shattered, and broke.
Having said that, we realise how lucky we are to have them, but we are also getting older and in need of a bit of extra energy.
Hopefully they will carry these memories.

[Jay22]

Happy Christmas SP, weather looks to be horrendous right enough...hope your journey is not too rough! Have a great time!

Sounds like you had a lovely day Bramble and I'm sure your grandchildren will have some wonderful memories!
