It's heavy in Berkshire today.... feels like thunder is in the air and I have one of those heads I get when thunder is looming. Hopefully it will happen overnight, wake up in the morning and the air will be clear and sun will be shining

That's weird ... I am online (green man) here, but I just posted in Josie AT and it says I'm offline, very odd!

Yes that would be the ideal solution

Sounds good (the festival not the weather ) What sort of events etc you going to?

We'll get the bus from Brislington Park & Ride as they run tomorrow, and so so cheap that way, then just wander around for a while watching wht's going on (music etc) and then go round to the kids area where there will be a funfair, circus, arts & crafts, all sorts really Beats sitting around wondering what to do all day

Ok I know what you mean.

Afternoon.


I'm still in the middle of what I call...titbits. It's all about the finishing touches. Nothing major, I should say, just little things to give it an extra something. It can sometimes take me a little longer to do things than other people (I did have a woman grab a bag and put her items in it herself as I was struggling a little with another woman infront of her the other day) but I've spread all the bits and pieces out so I'm not trying to do everything at once. It seems to be working out.

Although I hope I haven't tempted fate by saying that!

Sounds really good, hope you both have a fabulous time

just got caught in the middle of a water fight!!!!
love summer xxxxxxxx

Hi Lerdie,

Nice to have happy moments to look back on

Don't spend too much in Asda xxx


Sorry about your friend and about you being too bushed to help out in my patch. Suppose I will just have to do it myself.

Course I watched the video...would be rude not too..and, yes, lovely to see it all again. It's all we have at the moment, isn't it.

Think I saw a pic of Ben not too long ago and it would seem he is trying to go for the John James look these days. Not succeeding too well, I might add xxx

Afternoon ladies. Just popping in and out today. Making the most of the sunshine while it lasts. Hope you are all well.

Afternoon Hope you are well too

Zara Phillips just arriving for her wedding to Mike Tindall in Edinburgh.

Is he? Hang on, I'll just conjure up a mental image of that.














That really is quite funny.


Talking of looking like John, did anyone catch Emmerdale earlier in the week? There was an opening shot of Aaron walking up the path to his front door and he had his tracksuit bottoms rolled up to his knees. He usually has them tucked into his boots. Anyway, it totally made me think of John.

Afternoon.

It's sunny here but I've been avoiding the sunshine lately after I quite badly sunburnt myself the other week. I did take a photo of the contrasting skin tones on my shoulders but the results looked too horrific to post!

Being a student town I see a lot of young people around, the guys seem to be rolling their jeans up a lot the last few years - makes me wonder why they don't just buy 3/4 length shorts or trousers lol. It does always remind me of John though

Sorry about your garden, think Cheeky Chops has a certain British/Australian residing in her loft, he may need a job.... he could do with a few bob, do you pay?

There's only one Johnny James, why on earth would Ben think he could carry the look off...... thought he was a man with brains Good to see back posting Phil

Afternoon Joyce, make sure you and Cathy pm Kelly about the 27th

Zara looking lovely. didn't see the rest of the guests arriving. Was her father there? Glad the sun was shining for her.

I think it's the adaptability of it. If you get a bit chilly you can roll them back down again. Though that's probably a less likely scenario in Australia than here!




Still on being reminded of John, the shop it still pulling out little things. The other day I put out a set of coasters from Australia, each with a different animal native to the country. Actually, if they're still there on Tuesday and anyone wants them, just say and I'll nab them for you.

Have done Wendy. Just waiting to find out the venue so we can book hotel. Not sure which airport best to fly into either. Havn't a clue about London...hope someone can help us out.

Depends where the venue is.

Heathrow - M4 West

Gatwick - M23 South

Luton - M1 North

Stansted - M11 North east

Bit of a taxi/bus ride whichever you choose. Probably find Luton the best. Have you been down to London by plane before? Will be bringing hubs with me, hope he's not the only male. Because of Grumpy Drawers we will be returning home the same day Am looking forward to it though

SUSAN

Did you sort out the stray dog situation? Did you find the owner or did you call the Dogs Trust?

Ben's doing okay these days, he's a regular on BBC Radio London, not a shabby job to have

Best option to check first would be London City Airport.

If that doesn't pan out, then the list Wendy gave are your other options.
