PB is coming for a sleepover tomorrow, so I may not be around until late evening (when she's asleep). I'm almost hoping she stays awake, long enough for me to miss the CBB final.
Goodnight and sweet dreams Moonie, Velvet and Ros.
Night owl hug for Summer if she pops in.
*night owls*
oh my word- busy day! And then much paperwork to read in the evening. I'm pleased to be climbing into bed now.
I think I would like hyperloop, it would certainly help when it comes to visiting loved ones 
yogi, have a great PB day & night 
El, I hope the review isn't too much hassle did you
night yogi summer velvet
Good morning everyone 
Cloudy here. Dry until late evening when it starts raining and tomorrow forecast to be raining all day long. If it is going to be named it would be storm Imogen.
Summer, I think that if hyperloop was to become a reality it would be just for travelling long distances such as between Edinburgh and London. So it would be more likely to be in the States or mainland Europe or China.
My review is a bit of a hassle but it's at a quietish time of the year from a client work point of view so I've got the time.
Yogi, I hope you have a good couple of days with PB 
Good morning everyone I think my weather is going to be similar to yours EL. I hope you have an easier day today Summer - Pancake Day to look forward to next week! Have a great PB day Yogi
Enjoy your day everyone

Yes, it's Pancake Day next Tuesday 9th February, just in case Summer hadn't realised it 
Good morning Buddies
Breezy but dry here. Rain expected later 
El, good luck with the rummaging 
Squiggle, it's been years since I had a pancake
"whispers don't tell Sweet though"
Yogi, I hope you have a super day with PB and the sleepover goes well too
We will want to know how things go too
Sweet, hope you and Bramble have a good day
Skylark, hope all is well with you
Have great day everyone
Moonie, I have to be organised when dealing with clients papers. The only thing I had to rummage around for was a professional indemnity insurance certificate. My insurance company sends me stuff every year but not a certificate (similar to a car insurance certificate). I eventually found it in the papers they sent me 5 years ago. They don't send it to me every year as it's a continous policy.
Good morning it's overcast & cooler here today, I hope you're all warm

I'm warm enough down here. Still overcast and there are bits of rain in the air. Tomorrow is forecast to be one of those days where your Bramble would take one look outside and decide to stay home

Something interesting for any fan of Dad's Army. The soundtrack has been found of a 1969 episode called A Stripe for Frazer. The episode had been thought lost. The episode has been recreated using animation with the original soundtrack. A snippet from it:
If you want to buy the complete episode you can get it via the BBC store:

Flying visit as I'm n the CBB final thread. Thank goodness it ends tonight, it has been a terrible series.
Had a lovely PB day and she's tucked up in bed, fast asleep.
Aw how sweet I hope she is enjoying her sleepover at Granny's enjoy the CBB final yogi
ive had one of "those" days, I'm pleased to be in bed and am hoping for a brighter day tomorrow. If you boys have predicted the weather correctly, I'm very glad that Bramble and I will be at work and not out in the rain
i loved Dad's army, I hope the new movie does it justice.
Wishing you all sweet dreams

Good morning everyone, there's been a lot of rain overnight and the area around my pond is flooded again. I hope there are no severe floods anywhere though I think we have all had enough of those.
Sounds like a lovely day with PB Yogi Very exciting times with our little boy, he is standing for the first time, just before his first birthday and can take one step but hasn't yet worked out how to get the other leg moving. There is the sweetest picture of him standing for the first time with this look of amazement on his face.
I hope everyone manages to stay dry today and, like Velvet says, have a great weekend everyone - that goes for you too Velvet I hope you too can treat yourself
The football match where Stuart Pearce was due to make his comeback has been postponed due to a water logged pitch.

As the pitch is very close to me I'm not surprised
January was quite a good month for Gloucestershire teams, In the National League the manager of the month award went to the manager of Forest Green, and the player of the month went to a Cheltenham player. In the National League North the manager of Gloucester and a Gloucester player got the equivalent awards.
Evening all.
We've had miserable weather the last couple of days, which curbed our plans for PB last night, but we played "races" (which PB always wins), read stories and were served hundreds of cups of tea from PB's teaset.
This morning, we made snowman cakes before she went home at lunchtime. She loves baking, because she loves eating the cake mixture.
Middle son and DiL visited this afternoon and stayed for tea. We had a lovely time together.
Squiggle, I can hardly believe your great-grandson is almost a year, it seems no time since he was born. I'm sure he will soon be toddling around, getting into lots of mischief.
I hope you are all having a lovely weekend.
I'm going to get off and catch up on Shetland.
Goodnight and sweet dreams everyone. Hugs for the night owls.
night yogi - aww lovely PB/family moments -gorgeous and summer if you pop in
*night owls*
oh my goodness- the baby is almost 1?! 
that's gone very quickly Squiggle. I'm pleased he brings so much joy to your heart
yogi, PB is such a treasure what fun! I like the activities you do with her, and I'm glad you've enjoyed the sleepover
el I hope you've enjoyed the days sporting action it's lovely to see the flying Scotsman out and about again too
leaving goodnight hugs for all, including g velvet, moonie & Ros
Good morning everyone
A mix of heavy showers and some sunshine here today. Yesterday was rain all day, about an inch. Storm Imogen announced for tomorrow. Gusts over 50mph predicted here, stronger to the south.
Yogi, I'm glad you had a good time with PB even though the weather was poor.
Good morning everyone, a drier and a nicer morning, even a hint of blue sky, rain again this afternoon though. Yet another storm on the way 
I don't think I have ever known so many.
Sounds like a lovely day Yogi. I loved that clip of The Flying Scotsman EL, I noticed they were using proper steam coal - nice clean smoke. That is how I remember the trains used to be when I was a little girl, we used to like standing on the bridge as the trains went by underneath. They used to run steam trains alongside the Central Line trains up until the '60's.
Enjoy your day everyone
Morning Buddies
It finally stopped raining last night after a day of torrential rain
I was down to my last cupful of milk because I didn't want go out and get soaking wet
Been down in the dry to replenish my stocks this morning before I even had my brekkie
Yogi, it's fabby to see you and PB had a lovely sleepover together
All those cups of tea are not good for you though 
She really is a lovely little lady
Squiggle, your grandson is nearly a year old?
Boy, did that go quick
Its lovely to see he brings you so much happiness. Long may it continue
Sweet, I hope you enjoy your day off and it's dry enough for you and Bramble to go for a long walk together
Skylark, I you pop in, I hope you are having a super weekend
El, I see Cheltenham won and Forest Green only drew. One point in front and a game in hand too
Have a great day peeps
Good morning I hope you all slept well, I've had my best sleep in weeks 
the sun is pouring in through the windows so I will go out and make the most of it before Imogen turns up tomorrow.
Squiggle your steam train memories sound lovely, picturesque
Ah moonie I was just wondering where you were well done on replenishing your stocks, I hope it dries up for you so you can enjoy a nice swan walk
Cute!
Good morning everyone.
Weather is awful, with heavy rain and wind. 
Squiggle, I have a memory of being a young child in a railyway station with my paternal grandmother, and there were steam trains there. There is almost a romance about steam trains, that modern trains could never have.
I love going to the transport museum in Glasgow and seeing all the old trains, trams and buses. However, it can be slightly disconcerting to see things from your lifetime and they are museum exhibits!
Have a lovely day everyone, and stay warm and dry.
