hello all. Hardly anyone seems to be posting. I expect the heat is not helping. I would hate to think that members old and new still can't get access to the site.
Come on let's hear from all our senior members. Only good news by return please.
Norberry am siting at the kitchen bench painting a wooden garden table and foot stall, and my arms.
Have to say you are right not a lot of people about, there seem's to be a good atmosphere that has gone walk about since the change over. think i fit in the old in age and member group,
Take Care Elliex
The river looked lovely I must admit, there is a new boat hire place down there, I was a little bit tempted. Three of my closest neighbours have all got hot tubs on their patios, but as all is quiet I don’t think anyone is using them today. Perhaps I should just get a washing up bowl with cool water in it, that might do the trick, just checked it’s saying 29 degrees indoors here, and 33 outside.
Take care KT
It was one of my ambitions to have a holiday on a boat, my family couldn’t be persuaded, but a couple of years ago 2 friends said they were up for it so we hired a boat to go down the local river just for 3 nights, but it was lovely. I did most of the steering while the other two opened the locks we had to go through. We didn’t do any cooking we planned where we were going to moor and which pubs we were going to eat at. It ticked all the right boxes for me for a holiday even if we didn’t get very far and we were nearer to home than I have to travel to my hospital it was great.
Take care KT
LOL i am in the SE its 32 in doors cannot just sit here, you know what they say the devil makes work for idle hands, I do not normally do this was hubby's job now mine
That sounds cracking. You planned it and that makes all the difference.We did the same years ago with a canal boat but I had to jump off, do the locks then jump on again as Mrs N was a late learner swimmer and was frightened. Always got to a mooring too late so had to walk miles in the dark to get to a pub. You can imagine what the walk back was like a few hours after the pub fun!
