chicken police

[swedeheart]

Afternoon, animal lovers. I don't have any animals anymore but lov'em and often watch all sorts of animal clips on YouTube. This one featuring the chicken police really intrigued me - is there anyone among you that could come up with a theory as to why two fighting rabbits should annoy the roosters to such a degree??

The second video is just a bonus for you cat lovers, no question attached, although if any of you have your own little roomba driver at home, do tell!

You can channel as much heat as you like my way Dolly :) It's fluffing freezing here . No degrees C with a high arthuritis index .
Glad your toothy feels better Robinia .Yes that series is brilliant .I used to love a train journey ,but of course these days you are jammed in like a sdn and need a degree to buy a ticket
.I remember years ago when it was BR getting the early London train from Yarmouth and the lovely cooked breakfast in the buffet car with waiters ,tablecloths, proper teapots, toast racks etc .Nowadays you're lucky if get a curled up chs sandwich and a cup of polystyrene coffee .
Hope you are feeling better today too Jude .We can't have you snuffling over Her Maj :)
I'm off to make a cake .Mr S has a birthday tomorrow .Coffee and walnut .

12º ???? well it may be 12º to them but it's a darn sight colder here. They are all liars. It is sunny but chilly. Neighbour has been burgled again overnight, all her firewood has disappeared; gosh it's getting bad here!

Afternoon all. The Stockholm forecast for next Tuesday is -17°C so you can all stop moaning now and pity me instead. Why oh why did people ever migrate to these latitudes, what were they thinking??

And yes where are you Lottie, I miss you too!

And my back started hurting worse from the fall yesterday!

And my laptops slow too! Sorry Neti can't help. In fact you have just reminded me that there *are* such things as disk cleaning and defragging; the defrag is running even as we speak. Apparently I haven't done it since 2008...

Anyone remember Buffy Sainte-Marie? There was a documentary about her a couple of weeks ago and so I've been reminiscing on YouTube. Found this, ain't it sweet https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W3CWf9iFleQ

[netibiza]

well it's -8º in Madrid, wonder how long it'd take me to get there!!!!

[Robinia]

neti, just how long do you think you'd actually stay there?

oops I was so bust practising my curtsey I forgot to mention your fall Kit, hope you don't turn as many colours as I have this week. I see you've made such a habit of it they've erected a statue - erected's probably not the best word tho'...

(I think we might have done that joke before, I've got a feeling of deja vu, but hey, if Sweedie will insist on all these repeat performances....)

[Robinia]

*so BUST?! hahaha..... so busy

[swedeheart]

Ha ha ha ha I love that statue Robi, nope you haven't posted it before. Only problem is, they'd have to place copies all over this town, the way I'm going!

I ought to be doing some curtsey practising myself, our royal family has one prince and two princesses - one of the princesses being the heiress to the throne - and both of the girls are getting married this summer. The crown princess - Victoria - is getting married to a true yokel. They were together for something like seven years I think it was before the engagement was announced, I think her parents were *really* hoping for him to just go away like a bad dream:) But our crown princess knows what she wants. She's very funny and bright and a diplomatic genius.

morning folks...freezing cold wind up the back agai.

oooh, lovely woofy, wish I could smell it...my winter honesuckle's got flowers on it & lots of buds waiting to open. It well and truly let me down this year didn't it? Whenever there've been flowers before xmas in the past the following winter has been moderate...pah! I think it needs a good slaughtering this spring as punishment! It might be a job for a man who can.

Purcell was the first composer we learned about in senior school. The teacher was a tiny hunched old (to us he was old) man in tweed jackets....played the piano beautifully and on the whole had a very encouraging & positive style. He did go a funny colour if he got angry tho' :o)

[Robinia]

tut, I guessed as much, no one here... they're all too busy rummaging through their tat

more fun today. When you have a dental implant, while the implant is healing into the bone, a "cap", actually a screw with a big flat head, is screwed into the implant to keep the socket clean. Well mine has come unscrewed and fallen out and the jolly old dentist isn't there till monday....lucky it didn't happen when i was asleep or I might have swallowed the screw, they are made of surgical metal and cost a bomb!!!

anyway i am on soft food and no lumps for the weekend.....hmmmm might try the old liquidised mars bar trick
