Hello everyone!
Currently heading back to Toulouse Airport to fly home. It's delayed. France is on strike.
A vicar on our trip led a lovely little memorial service for Ziggy yesterday at the place we said goodbye. It was in crazy strong winds and driving snow.
Hopefully we'll be home at a reasonable time and have an evening to decompress.
HapPea Saturday! xXx

Morning all, finally made decision last night that we need a more modern family car something max of 10 years old and without stellar mileage (which is surprisingly hard to find here). It needs to be an estate for the dogs and so options seem to be either a W212 E Class or F11 5 Series which is quite handy as there is an Irish F11 with just 60k miles up in Dublin so that will be todays trip out.

Morning all, lazy start and now I’m going, I’ll be mostly pruning the horse chestnut tree in the garden and removing the tree house from it! Selling or renting this place, it cannot be there.

Have fun all…

Morning all , minor white out here in sleepy Suffolk , bright out there so hopefully it wont last long , peaceful skies today and drive safe

What kind of china specifically

Was thinking "china white," given all the drug talk.

Morning, all. Beautiful day here, sunny and in the 60s F. Then the bottom drops out tonight and it will be below freezing again next week. Once I can gather my motivation, will get outdoors and play with cars. Supposed to rain as well as be cold & miserable tomorrow, so living for The Now...

Careful out there!

Good Morning everyone, in work and it's light already, apparently it's officially day from 05:52 till 18:29. So we're nearly there...

Noon at 12:11 so you have to get your 'Good Mornings' in before then...

Morning all. aching like mad after a 25mile bike ride yesterday (I am not very fit, so this was a biggy) so a restful day planned.
Rain yesterday will have washed the majority of salt off the roads so I may dig the Tiger out of the garage and take her for a spin.
Yesterday I did a silly thing and bought a little 2 stroke Trabant for a bit of fun and for my son to mess about in, we have all driven them in Berlin and I love how quirky they are. I may well live to regret it, but it was no money and I am certain to get my money back in a year or so when I come to my senses.

You are obviously aware they are quite a cult thing ....especially in Poland and some are fetching extremely good prices now ...good luck and have fun .....very similar to smoking a pipe and 40 a day all at the same time lol

Morning all looks a much nicer day than yesterday so might get some time in the garden. Just spent the lat 10 mins talking to my old boss in Melbourne, who I am off to see on 25th, planning what we will be getting up to other than the GP. Need to think about packing, its autumn there so hot and cold stuff needed.
