Good evening Summer 
I’m glad to hear Bramble has enjoyed her birthday
Thank you yogi how’s keira??and what are you watching tonight?
~Sweet Pancakes~ posted:Thank you yogi
Keira is okay, thanks - she’s snoozing atm
I’m watching Collateral on BBC2 but I’m struggling to stay awake.
Sorry Summer, I’m about to nod off. Goodnight and sweet dreams.
Hug for the night owls
Good morning everyone
Sunny and relatively mild. Temperature forecast to be a high of 10 C, the last day that temperatures get to double figures quite possibly until well into March as real winter sets in with temperatures falling day by day until next week forecast to be sub-zero throughout the day with heavy snow which is unlikely to melt until mid March. The south and east most at risk.
I hope everyone has a good day
Good morning 
sunny and bright here, a really lovely day
yogi, sorry I churchilled on you last night, one minute I was forumming and the next I was waking up this morning with my phone beside me in the bed!
Good morning everyone
Weather is dry and bright.
No problem Summer, I had to sign out soon after, as I was so tired.
I woke at 2am and couldn’t get back to sleep. Then around 6am, I got a bouncing sore head and felt sick. It seems to be easing off now, which is good as I need to go out today.
Have a good day everyone

It sounds like the “Indian summer” we have been promised for several years now El

Awww, I hope you feel much better very soon Yogi
I have just been out to shop. It is very cold out there 
Whilst on the the bus I went past a pub. There was a car on its car park almost completely destroyed. A high surrounding wall had blown down on it. Windscreen and front end obliterated 
I couldn’t see any sign of it being forced open so I am thinking it was unattended when the wall fell on it.
Another “lucky” thing, if you can call it that, is it’s right by a bus stop. So it’s a good job it didn’t fall the other way because if people had been waiting for a bus they would have been hurt or even worse
The pub is open but I was on the bus
Moonie, I hope you are right with no-one being in that car
There was a tree which came down at the entrance to a local pub due to the strong wind last year. That could have been just as bad if someone had been going through the entrance at the time. I'm fairtly certain that wasn't the case as I never heard about anyone being injured.
How odd I thought I had posted in here this morning. Anyway it's a lovely bright day. Thank goodness no-one was in that car when the wall fell Moonie.
Enjoy your day everyone
There's a new afternoon BBC1 series starting on Monday - Shakespeare and Hathaway. Nothing to do with the playwright and his wife though it's set in Stratford on Avon. 2 private investigators thrown together when in the first episode Frank Hathaway (Mark Benton) finds an unlikely partner Lu(ella) Shakespeare (Jo Joyner) to catch a killer and clear her name.
10 part series. I think it comes from the same people who do Father Brown and did The Coroner as the executive producer and the composer are the same.
Velvet, I saw an Iranian film years ago called The White Balloon (1995). Several people try to help a little girl to find the money her mother gave her to buy a goldfish with. It's well worth watching if you get a chance. It shows the Iranian ordinary people as they really are rather than what one sees on the news. It's easy to follow and you'll be gripped by it. It was directed by Jafir Panafi who in 2010 was sent to prison by the authorities for propaganda and banned by them for 20 years from making films (though he has been able to make a few and get them smuggle out of Iran). The White Balloon is devoid of any propaganda and shows the people of Iran in a positive way.
I think Shakespeare and Hathaway will be more family friendly to watch compared to Collateral or Marchella, PG rated rather than 15.
Hi everyone.
Glad you made it here, Squiggle
Thanks El, Moonie and Velvet, I feel a lot better, and I had a quick nap too.
You could be right about it being a migraine, El.
I’ll give that Shakespeare series a go as I like Father Brown and The Coroner.
at the wall being blown over. Good job it seems like there were no casualties, Moonie
Goodnight and sweet dreams, everyone. Hugs for the night owls

I’ve been giving Bramble a makeover! It takes around 4 hours in total, I would say I’m 90% finished. I aim to do the rest tomorrow, she looks beautiful but she currently dislikes me lol, she’s gone to bed in the spare room 
Good morning everyone
Cloudy and coolish here.
Summer, hopefully Bramble will forgive you one day
One of the more unusual clocks:

I hope everyone has a good day
Good morning everyone
It’s dry and chilly this morning.
Summer, I’m sure Bramble will appreciate feeling cooler and more comfortable, even if she dislikes the stripping process.
Very unusual clock, El. I’m glad they speeded up that video of the construction.
Have a good day, all
