COLD DARK ROOM

[Cathie G]

Hmmmm.... so if that was a real rescue, your friend would have been up a creek without a paddle???

We have had a little bit of cooling here too. A few scattered sprinklings.... Mornings are really nice.

Oh my garsh...

Sounds about right. There’s no bad weather. Just bad clothing. In the UK we wear layers so we can adjust easily... and keep an umbrella handy [emoji23]

Sounds like Ohio.

Ok. Installed the brandy NEW disposal, but....nope, didnt work. :-(

Ok...has to be electrical issue. Removed switch plate, removed the switch, installed a brandy new switch AND voila! Motor turned on. I guess the internal bits in the on/off switch broke. So, now I can put the disposal all back in. We’re going to keep the new disposal installed.

The offending switch now replaced.

In Denmark there’s also no bad weather. Or so they say. Besides, in Denmark umbrellas are overrated.

P.S. Doesn’t apply to tortoises. [emoji23][emoji217][emoji173]️

Some of my memory of actual events as they transpired are a little scotchy.

I feel that I have thoroughly been educated by all of you and the wide variety of subjects that you have covered in the past few hours. ..
So ..... Well done [emoji4]... I haven’t accomplished anything even remotely as interesting today so I’m going to have a vodka & cranberry and live vicariously through you. Early to bed, early to rise

I wondered why no one commented on the 'brandy' new disposal!

It was a do nothing day for me too. I heated up a frozen dinner for lunch then sat around working puzzles on the Kindle. Well, earlier in the day I did manage to put one load of dirty clothes into the washer and turn it on. Now I have to remember to take the clean clothes out and put them into the drier. Woe is me. Such a lot of work!

Don’t forget to put your clothes in the drier

G’night!

Mark’s brandy, Heather’s vodka & cranberry. Glad to hear the One-legged Pirate has resumed his rounds properly. I decided to drink less wine. So it’s whisky on the rocks for me.

Because it’s an unspeakable crime?

 

[Bébert81]

Oh I just have a sully and a false map! [emoji16] You've had a lot!!

Hope will have a lot again if I stay in France!

 

[Bébert81]

It was peaceful until this happened

It’s noisy! A French bride and groom being given a traditional send off with car horns blaring, motorbikes being revved and young men hanging out of car windows. There were many more cars after I stopped filming

Sorry this not traditional !
We are just used to honk with our cars.
In this case they rent some luxious cars to seems richs & to attract attention. Honnestly I don't really like that at all.

Reims is a lovely city even if I prefer my South West !

Happy monday to everyone!
Here it's a kind of back-to-school week even if I restarted 2 weeks ago

Good mornooning all.

Just occasionally the TFO has a wobble and becomes unavailable. Here in the CDR, we have set up a private Facebook Group to see us through at these times. (Needless to say, since it was setup TFO hasn’t crashed for long enough to need it!)

CDR members can request to join the group by following this link (you will be asked for your posting name on this forum)
