Good Morning Early Birds!

[waterboatman]

Sunday. It looks like 0115 is the new wake up time. Such is life.

Ireland did the job in style yesterday. :o} It was a good game to watch.

Not a lot to do today, the usual running around, then some domesticity methinks.

Have a happy day everyone.

Early to bed early to rise makes a man healthy, wealthy and .........

What a crock, it just makes one tired.

How's things?

[waterboatman]

G'day mate. It's verging on the ludicrous! Two hours sleep.

Some good rugby on the idiot box. Ireland 33, New Zealand 13. :o} One of the best matches I've watched for a long time. No yellow cards, lots of penalties though.

I'm fine thanks. Tired though.

Hows tings in downsideupland today?

[1ozzy]

Tings is good thanks.

Nz usually field a tough team to beat. Well done Ireland, or were the Kiwis off form?

I don't think the Aussies will fare very well this year, or am I being a pessimist?

[waterboatman]

Both teams played well, but Ireland were the better team on the day. Johnny Sexton's boot did a lot of damage!

I haven't seen Australia play this year yet, but they are usually good.

[1ozzy]

A tad of TD consumed, celebratory reasons of course ;-/

[waterboatman]

Naturally! :o}

[1ozzy]

I think the Aussies have slipped a bit in many international sports over the last few years.

Time we got our act together again. Not doing overly well at cricket, slipping at rugby league and union, tennis, hmmmm

These cricketers of ours need to stop fondling their balls with abrasive substances.

[waterboatman]

I can only agree with that mate, it was a sad day to see them tampering with the ball.

[1ozzy]

I made a mistake today.

I offered Mrs Oz three choices for dinner.

Now I will need to make the most time consuming option.

Silly me;-/

[waterboatman]

Been there. Done that. :o} I'm sure she will appreciate your efforts.

[LadyCG]

Morning Gents.

Like you, WBM, I've had an appalling night's sleep, just when I really could have used some decent Zzzzzz. Oh well, maybe tonight I'll compensate for what I've missed these last few nights.

I hope you're both well otherwise.

I think I might go and put a fresh cup of coffee on xxx

[LadyCG]

*Pot* of coffee

[1ozzy]

Maybe!

If not, bad luck ;-/

What more of a loving and concerned partner could anyone wish for.

[waterboatman]

Morning LCG. xxx Not a lot of fun is it! Are you OK otherwise?

Coffee. Good plan. Back shortly! :o}

[waterboatman]

That's the way of it oz! :o}

[1ozzy]

Pot of coffee to share sounds like a good start Lcg.

Cooked breakfast too?

[waterboatman]

I haven't done a cooked breakfast for ages! I do sometimes do that for lunch though.

[LadyCG]

Well, if you're offering, 1ozzy.... :-)

Not too bad otherwise, WBM. I think the beast has just woken. BRB...

[1ozzy]

By the time my cooked breakfast gets to your shores Lcg, well, it might be good for re-soling galoshes.

But the offer is there.

[waterboatman]

I made a dozen scotch eggs yesterday.

At the farmers market yesterday, had a natter with the (married) mushroom lady, Wandered around and finished at the cake girl's stall, bought a couple of her wee cakes, IO gave her the cherry and pineapple recipe. She was pleased with that.She only does small cakes, I'm sure she will c&p next time! She is gorgeous, a really beautiful girl, could be a model any time shes wanted.
