Good Morning Early Birds!

[waterboatman]

Wednesday. Cloudy this morning. There was just enough rain yesterday evening to make unnecessary to water the garden. Serendipity! :o}

I took some carrier bags of books to the CCT Secondhand bookshop at Brimscombe Port yesterday had a natter and went merrily on my way. Half an hour later got a phone call from the lady that runs it say I'd left my bag of shopping along with the books. Daft or what! :o}

Wouldn't life be boring if everything went perfectly!

Have a happy day everyone.

I wish it went more perfectly than it does. Just awakened by a mobile, that has been charging all night, claiming to be critically low, by beeping loudly into my ear. Why did manufacturers opt to rely on a data connection designed for data and remove the one designed for power supply knowing it'd reduce the quality of their product.

Morning OG. A very good question, to which I have no answer, it puzzles me too.

Progress!

Morning guys, up and at the day! :)

Sorry, just trying to lift myself from my misery. :)

[Old_Geezer]

Too dark to see if it's cloudy out there at present. All I can tell is that it's the same all directions, do it's either all cloud or no cloud. Will find out later I guess.

Been remiss watering the plants of late; did so for the first time in days last night so it probably rained overnight.

Hope that you have an exciting day, today.

Good morning 'all!

O_G:
There's a verb meaning 'to make something worse than it was before on the pretext of improving it': It's known as 'microsofting' ;-)

Morning doug.

Feeling miserable my friend? How so?

Ta OG, But I'll settle for a quiet one if that's OK. ;o}

[waterboatman]

Doug I can tell you it's cloudy here, there is a narrow line of light along the hilltop, no stars out to play either.

[douglas9401]

Not miserable exactly Boaty, just p'd off with pain and yearning for a return to work.
I'll just keep dunking the tea biscuits and carry on. :)

[waterboatman]

Morning chris.

That sounds about right! It's also known as the ripoff factor!

[waterboatman]

Doug I know that one well enough. Not a lot that can be done about it mate sadly.

[dannyk13]

Good morning all. A bit grey and chilly at the moment.

[waterboatman]

Morning danny. It's certainly a lot cooler this morning. Got some wet stuff on it's way I think.

'morning, rained overnight, bit cooler this morning and overcast, no sign of the sun yet.

[DTCwordfan]

Morning, it's teeming down here and very dark outside...a really yeucky morning.....

[waterboatman]

You have my sympathy re the teggie minty. No fun at all!

Re your neighbour, that is often the case. Sad, but true.

[DTCwordfan]

so it's OG's fault that it is pisshhing down with rain.....

[waterboatman]

Morning balders and DT.

It's just started raining here now. No air movement so it's not going anywhere.
