Summer, the main issue here has been the rain and the wind. I heard someone say this morning that it was worse then July 2007 - not the case though it has been very windy. My fence man came this morning to look over the damage. Likely to be 3 weeks before he does the work as there's a waiting list by fence suppliers due to the widespread damage. He's been inundated by people needing fence replacements/repairs but is turning all work away other than for his exisisting customers.

Good morning everyone 

It’s snowing here.

Moonie, I’m okay, thanks. I thought I had posted in here yesterday - my brain is mush! 
My Virgin box went in the blink yesterday so we are currently waiting on an engineer. 
Have a good day, all.

I pleased to here you’re okay Yogi 
I hope your Virgin box is sorted soon

Moonie

Evening all 

Lovely Virgin guy replaced my box with a new, dinky one. Everything is working again

Sounds like your fence man is going to be very busy, El 

Summer, we had snow too but it has melted.

Good morning everyone, although very cloudy I don't actually think it's raining at the moment! Your poor fence guy EL. Let's hope there's no more storms so he can catch up a bit.

 

That's good news Yogi. Did you lose any stored programmes on the old box? I'm not sure if it's the same as a Sky box. 

 

Enjoy your day everyone

Good morning everyone

 

Sunny here at present though forecast to become cloudy and more rain later.

 

Yes, I think my fence guy is going to be really busy for some weeks. Squiggle, I hope we don't get more damaging storms

 

Yogi, I'm glad you've got a new working dinky Virgin box

 

Ros, that's sounds a very long choir practice

 

I hope everyone has a good day

Good morning everyone   

Cold, wet and breezy here. It looked like snow earlier but it didn’t happen 

Yogi, glad your Virgin box is sorted 

Have a lovely day everyone. Stay warm and cosy 

Moonie

I had a good day with the tiddlers - we made squirrel pancakes.

Squiggle, I was sad that I lost a few programmes which I can’t get on dvd. Hopefully, they’ll be repeated at some point. 
Hope everyone has had a good day 

 

Goodnight and sweet dreams, Ros 

Hug for any night owls

Moonie

Sorry to have just missed you Ros, I hope all is well and choir is bringing you joy  

 

yogi your pancake fun sounds fantastic  

 

I’ve cooked for my pancake loving friends, we calculated it’s our 10th year celebrating shrove Tuesday together their girls are just about old enough now to have a go at helping me flip the pancakes, they had a great time 

 

wishing you all very sweet dreams

Good morning everyone

 

No rain here overnight, was sunny to start with but now clouding over.

 

I'm glad pancake day went well

 

Summer, I thought you would like some of those wintry photos

 

Yogi, I hope those lost programmes get repeated for you in the future

 

I hope everyone has a good day

Good morning a sunny, frosty day here. There’s noise & activity next door, I think someone may be moving in! I hope it’s someone lovely  

 

how are you all today? 
I’m having breakfast with a friend, walking with another and then having pancakes tonight at mine with some others. Aaaah the more the merrier lol 

~Sparkling Summer~

Good morning everyone  

It’s cold, windy but dry here. The occasional burst of sunshine 

 

Summer, sounds like you had a great pancake day 

Good luck with your new neighbours 


Yogi, those programmes are bound to repeated on one of the channels sooner or later 

Hi El, squiggle and Velvet 

 

Have a super day, all 

Moonie

Good afternoon all 

We had a shower of snow this morning but it didn’t settle.

Thanks El and Moonie, hopefully my programmes will be repeated at some point.

Have a lovely day with your friends, Summer, and I hope your new neighbours are nice, quiet ones.

Have a good day, everyone

Good morning everyone it's cloudy and wet this morning. It does make you wonder who is the victim in the case of a dropped paper bag. In this case more of a tax then?

 

Enjoy your day everyone

Good morning everyone

 

Cloudy and wet start here, rain expected to move away fairly soon.

 

I've just looked up about the victim surcharge. It's an automatic penalty on people who have been convicted of offences. It goes into the Victim and Witness General Fund which is used to pay compensation to victims so doesn't get paid directly to the victim. The penalty varies depending on the sentence - current rates are between £20 and £170 (the £15 in this case presumably was the rate at the time of the original case). Squiggle, you are right - it seems to be closer to a tax.

 

I hope everyone has a good day

Good morning everyone 

We have snow! ⛄️ We don’t have enough for a snowman....yet 

That Victim Surcharge does sound more like a tax.

I am waiting on another Virgin engineer this morning. This time it is the downstairs TiVo box which has an issue. There is an error code and we can’t access Catch Up, On Demand or Apps like Netflix. They tried to fix the issue over the phone but to no avail so, an engineer is coming out.

It’s strange how both boxes developed problems within such a short space of time.

Weather permitting, I’m heading toMorrisons this afternoon.🤞🏻
Have a good day, all.
