Ian Frog Posted January 19 Share Posted January 19 Quite right too! Think of the trauma it would inflict if she opened her eyes and saw you leering over her lol. I am apprently going to be given a list of dont`s as well I am sure (I have previous for dressing animals up to make them look daft ).

Mississippi Bullfrog Posted January 19 Share Posted January 19 This weekend I was planning on going sailing. Unfortunately there is 1.5 inches of ice on the lake so they've cancelled all sailing. I mean - it's not as if a bit of ice has ever hurt a boat. So I shall be changing all the locks at my mother's flat as her carer has gone and lost the keys. The locks are cheap - it's replacing all the keys that is going to be expensive. I know for sure the keys will be in the carer's pocket / car and she will find them next week. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S-Westerly Posted January 19 Share Posted January 19 5 hours ago, Capt Sisko said: I'm going to an Iron Butt Association 'Ride to Eat' meeting tomorrow (Saturday). The general idea is that member picks a cafe, pub or other suitable venue, meet there at 12noon for a group photo, chat, eat and kick a tyre or two before calling it a day. 200miles each way from my corner of Shropshire to near Arundel. Thank goodness the weather forecast is looking (slightly) warmer for tomorrow. It's above freezing right enough but the roads hereabouts are covered in salt - some bits are like a salt flat! My bike will be staying off the road until we have someheavy rain due on Sunday to hopefully wash a lot of it away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mississippi Bullfrog Posted January 29 Share Posted January 29 Apparently we are in for a very interesting weekend - looking after both granddaughters at once. One is 3, the other 18 months. Together they find life totally hilarious. I think by Sunday evening I shall be lying down in a darkened room with a bottle of medicinal single malt. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S-Westerly Posted January 29 Share Posted January 29 This weekend we are back up north as I'll be breaking my two eldest grandsons out of school for the weekend then seeing my dad on Monday. Looks like I'll be going back to sea around 15 Feb but not anywhere exciting. Tranmere! FFS! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My paternal grandparents used to live in Bebington and my grandfather was terminal manager at the Tranmere oil terminal.
