COLD DARK ROOM

Pretty nice start to my day. Cooler temps working their magic on the leaves.

Does anybody know where @Tidgy's Dad went?

Yes I miss him and his antics ? even though I happened onto this thread much after it was established.

Yes, and it was a good place with a huge window. It was off Peckham Rye - best fireworks I ever saw there, on November 5th.! It was a pleasant neighbourhood, in those days - there are gangs and stabbings, and a lot of trouble
there now, I think. There was a huge warehouse place , full of strange bits of furniture, carved screens and other really old church stuff, which would probably be worth a fortune now - some of it was really beautiful, but covered in dust, and possibly woodworm too. Still, I wish I had been able to get something - but no room! However, I do have a carved bookcase made by my great-uncle from church pews , which holds my treasured collection of different editions of Swiss Family Robinson !!

Yes it's all changed, but same everywhere I think. The world is a less safe place these days.
My niece is living in Fulham and working a tube trip away in Elephant and Castle area - no idea where in London they are. She has some friends from university in Fulham so at least she won't be completely on her own. I'm worried that she has to walk through a park to get home from work though especially with the dark evenings upon us. I've told her to stick to the streets, but even that isn't without its risks. I just hope she has more common sense than I give her credit for.

He often does long disappearing acts but maybe he lurks in the darkness to keep an eye on us.
How have you been?

I'm more worried about Linda - she's not been in touch since she was in France.
I really hope she's OK.

I'll bet he does cause he can't resist ?

Me too. She might be really busy at the rescue. I always worry when I don't see people on here now that I'm used to seeing. It makes me happy even if I just catch them lurking.?

Good morning and Happy October to you all.
It's a brighter but showery and windy day here - the leaves are falling and the usual people who don't like trees are complaining about the mess. Why buy a house near well established trees if you don't like them and spend your time trying to get them cut down?
Lola has peeped out but is yet to venture out of his warm bed.
I've had a trip to the tip this morning and sorting mxore stuff out for the charity shop. The only trouble is I end up with much more mess than I started with - still I suppose you can't make an omelette without cracking a few eggs
Anyway better crack on!
Hope you all have a good Friday!

I've had a trip to the tip?????

The tip is the local landfill. Seems to be different there than here. This was many discussions ago. Are we going to have to start up with homework assignments?? Lol!!

......to get rid of rubbish. It's a recycling centre plus takes things for landfill, I think you call it the Dump

Good morning from a very wet Wales. It's set to rain all day so I won't be going far today.
Lola has been out to eat but soon heads back to his cosy hide. At least he's coming out and not ordering room service yet.
Hope you all have a good Saturday.

Is this the rainy season for you?

Any time of year can be rainy in Wales!?
We are in Autumn now so more rain, high winds and cold is likely

There is a rhyme, which i can't remember exactly, about
Devon,lovely Devon,Rains six days out of seven
And Cornwall is no better
Because it's even wetter !! So I know how you feel. But at least you have more sheep than we do in Devon, to make up for it.

Hot here today, at least in the direct sunshine. The sun has been up since 0700 & getting hotter & hotter. Our Sully is hanging out of her shed just watching life go by. I trimmed grape leaves, picked some grapes, pruned our hardy hibiscus, built a little ledge for our bbq to hang off the deck. Picked our first Fuju persimmon from the garden.

I agree and miss some others ? also. I really miss all the different conversations going on.
