Off to meet up with friends round the locals, think I'll wear my newest Arsenal shirt after todays result. A fair number of my friends are spurs supporters so I've been getting some stick, all good natured of course. I can't stand it when people take the banter too seriously and forget it's about a bunch of Women or Men kicking a bag round a field.

Football?  Wazzat 

Yorkie, glad to say I didn't get plastered whilst they plastered but had intended to "get plastered" last nite... BUT... had to drive as invited to DD's bbq....couldn't turn that down as I didn't feel like cooking a proper dinner   so no getting plastered for moi.....maybe tonight tho...ahem (but got hosp appt termorra... so maybe not...sob).

Hope you all have a good Sunday whatever you're doing...very misty out there at the moment.....where are the thunderstorms?

Chrissie

[chrissie]

Bye Uncy... have a good thunderstorm-free week.

Just a little bit of lightning over the north east of france at the mo http://www.blitzortung.de/DF/Webpages/

Listening to the Archers omnibus at the mo. If any one else listens, I have to agree with Brians point of view about backing Tom when he needed it

We had a heck of a thunderstorm last night  ....went on for HOURS  !!!   quite a spectacular  'son et lumière' .....  it was to be expected with the temperature yesterday  afternoon reaching 36°        ...   lovely wedding ....the bride was stunning ... a little story here to lift everyone I hope !  Almost exactly one year ago, the bridge and groom were in a dreadful road accident, they were on a motorbike,  a car overtook two vehicles and met the couple coming the other way   .....  the bride (then 28 years old) lost a leg in the accident ......  and the groom had one of his legs broken in three places ... since then they have both been through huge operations ( as you can imagine) and  subsequently the bride had a prosthesis fitted.   To see them married yesterday was an emotional experience for everyone there, and an uplifting one too ....



would you believe following last nights storm  ..this morning back to normal  . .  isn't nature wonderful    ....  now just to cheer you all up ! you won't be getting any more 'sun reports'  for 3 weeks , we're tootling off on holiday Tuesday ......   but I'll be back and so will the sun    8)

[chrissie]

Kate, yes a very unlifting story, the poor couple and their families how devastating it must have been.  So pleased the wedding went well, can imagine just how emotional it must have been though.

Enjoy your holiday.......will miss your weather reports over the next three weeks  I suppose you'll be taking that S**S***E with you when you go?  I'll be happy enough a that, we had our summer yesterday, what more could we want! 

[scottiesmum]

Good morning Chrissie ...     (well afternoon here ! ) I am definitely  thinking of packing the sun     ....we're going to Jersey     ....  hubby's idea so I know who to blame 

[Yorkie]

Really autumnal this morning, it was clear at 6am by 6.30 there was a thick mist, which hung around for a couple of hours and now its raining.

Will there be enough to keep you occupied on Jersey Kate, Tesco have a big warehouse there and a few others businesses, I wonder if they do conducted tours you could go on

[scottiesmum]

I shall avoid Tesco like the plague    it's personal grudge I have   !!!!     ...... we've not been to Jersey, but have visited Guernsey about 30 years ago  !!!!  so know a little of what to expect..... Scotty walking will keep me occupied for some of the time  .... and  will enjoy  using the local buses, I've made a list of things I particularly want to see/do by 'exploring' the internet   ....to be honest once we've 'done' the island I'm quite happy to chill out   (hope not literally    ) with four brand new books I've recently bought..... and build up some stamina for the onslaught of visitors we have on our return .......  Oh and I do have a lot of M&S vouchers  (received for my birthday earlier this year from people who knew there was an M&S on Jersey, which was more than I did  !!!)............ 

[Accordion]

Only a couple of days and you're off Kate. Try not to miss me too much!
I have a long weekend in Yorkshire booked up in September, but I don't think it will match up to Jersey.

[Yorkie]

I was going to say good idea, stock up on M&S knickers, you can never have too many, but I expect the French know a thing or two about them anyway.

Its ok Accordion if you want to stock up on knickers too M&S have made it to Yorkshire.

[scottiesmum]

  @ Yorkie  ....  I buy my bragas  in Spain  .... and my lingerie in France         If I waited to go to M&S I'd be 'sans culotte' in no time   oo la la  !! 

Goes without saying Dave that I'll miss you, my little oracle  you    .... 

[roseway]

That's enough talk about female underwear. You'll get the chaps overexcited.

[Ezzer]

Should you bump into a young brunette with an explosive smile who answers to the name of Daisy. Give her a big hello from me

[kitz]

>> we're tootling off on holiday Tuesday

Have a wonderful time Kate
