Good morning everyone it's a bright morning after quite a lot of rain yesterday. I hope everyone managed to stay as dry as possible. Is the wardrobe turning out the way you wanted it to Summer?
Enjoy your day everyone 
I'd be surprised if this ever became an Olympic sport

Hope all are well and hope that prescription works Yogi 
A day of 30p gambling awaits. My crossword. I'll have my usual 50p acca on the Premier League. One day I'll beat Bet365.
Take care all

No idea what that means - it's not a water leak.
Bottled water for now would be my choice El

I've looked at the tap water and it looks clear. I would have thought that if the water was unsafe to drink the warning would be much stronger and also would apply to a large area, not just my road

You make some good points there El
Evening all
We spent most of the day helping my parents clear out stuff from the old house.
Summer, I’ve got that Frozen Game app too.
Squiggle, I hope it remained bright for you
Sorry the rain appeared, Moonie. I hope you didn’t need to go out in it
Were you lucky, Velvet or did Bet365 win?
Fingers crossed the water issue doesn’t affect you, El - and that it is sorted quickly
lol I can’t see finger wrestling taking off in a big way
Goodnight and sweet dreams, Ros
Hug for the night owls

Think we have had a similar letter EL and like you doesn't seem to affect us - Severn Trent took over from Dee valley water in this part of wales - its not affecting the drinking water here but just seems to be cleansing the water pipes and improving the water supply from sediment etc but that hasn't affected us either
night yogi moons summer if you pop in
Good morning and belated goodnight hugs I hope you all slept well. How are you all today?
Yesterday was non stop busy! 
and I crammed in a quick lawn cut while the weather allowed.
The wardrobe is turning out the the way i’d like, thank you 
it was pine but it’s gradually turning a chalky shade called Moonlight White. All the fiddly drawer parts will be finished today, and then I can start on the outside!
Good morning everyone it's a cool and cloudy morning. How vague that warning about water quality EL. Is there anything helpful on their website?
Enjoy your day everyone
Good morning everyone
A mix of sunshine and clouds here, could get some showers.
Ros, it's possible that it could be something to do with clearing sediment. Squiggle, there's nothing on Severn Trent's map to indicate what is the issue. A couple of weeks ago they replaced an external pipe under the pavement outside a house a few doors away. The Severn Trent map has the symbol on the other side of the road from that house. So it could be some after effect from that. Doesn't seem to be any issue with my water though.
I hope everyone has a good day
Steve Smith ruled out for playing today in the cricket test due to delayed concussion following yesterday's accident - being hit on his head with the ball while batting. Although Australia's best batsman (and in the world), it's not the way England woud want to remove him from the batting.
Evening all.
We had heavy rain in the morning then it brightened up in the afternoon.
El, I’m glad you haven’t been affected by the Severn Trent issues
Summer, I’m glad the wardrobe is progressing well.
Did you go out today, Moonie?
I hope you’ve all had a good day

Hi Yogi
I have been for my usual three trips 
Nice day here if a little breezy
Sweet dreams Moonie, I hope your weekend has been a smiley one 
evening gang my house has been full of friends popping in today, which I adore, and more wardrobe painting! The end is insight now.
El, I’m glad the water issue hasn’t affected you, I hope it’s fully resolved soon

Sounds like a fun day and well done on getting more wardrobe painting done
Heading to bed, goodnight and sweet dreams, Moonie, Summer and Ros
Sweet dreams yogi, I’m glad you had a goid weekend too

Good morning everyone it's raining here but the forecast for the week ahead is much dryer.
I don't watch cricket but I saw that bowling on the news and muttered to myself that's not cricket!
I'm glad the wardrobe painting and friends dropping in made for such a happy day and it sounds a good day for everyone
Enjoy your day everyone
Squiggle, the majority of batsmen at this level wear an attachment to the helmet which protects the neck. They also wear an arm guard. Steve Smith didn't have either as he doesn't feel comfortable with them. He may change his mind now. Yes, Archer's bowling was hostile, but I'm not aware that it infringed any of the cricket regulations.
