great drawing Vinny...

[jno]

nice drawing... wearing traditional West Country costume, I see.

[woofgang]

that's the winter version jno, the summer version is quite skimpy but you need more in the winter in the west to keep you warm.

[Robinia]

Oi Vincent! never mind fillin' up the tub with beer, we want jewellery & designer perfume please...tut....<note to self: make sure Vinny gets the itchiest xmas jumper this year>
That's a great drawing, she obviously knows you well! :o) there are some very talented people on that site

Well I wish Charlie could use the bathroom to 'P', every time I open the door the heat goes out faster than he does. I can only see him out there when he moves...yesterday I looked out to see he was stood rigid with his head down & I panicked, thinking something was wrong. I scrambled into some shoes, went to rush outside to fetch him....and he almost fell in the door...hahaha, I'd been looking at a shrub & it had gone out of perspective if you know what I mean.

Kit, someone's looking for you...

I wonder if anyone's looking for me...?

Evening snowpeople
Hope you are all keeping as warm as poss in this lot .Freezing here .Minus 13 tonight they reckon .We've had no more snow though just this bitterly cold wind coming straight from Siberia by the feel of it so mustn't grumble compared to how bad it is in other places .

Glad to see our Charlie is OK though Robinia .
Still no email so thanks for your cryptic clue :)
They say it should be on again tomorrow morning when I just looked at the status .If not I shall be on the blower toot sweet .

Lovely picture Vinny .Very talented people on that site ..
I used to have wear one of those Bavarian get ups when I worked as a waitress at the Biergarten on the Wellie Pier here in the distant past of my misspent youth . But I used to rein my bazooms in :)
Sounds good news for the lovely ring Jude .I bet your pleased .Nice of Kit to do that for you,bless her .
No other earth shattering news from Shaneytowers .Just jogging along .
Hope Mr Woofy is behaving himself :)
Goodnight all .Sleep well and keep yer vests well tucked in !!

thick snow here, about 6 inches and still falling...no early walkies today, night night

[swedeheart]

*puts crampons for all in bran tub* Och, Robi, haud yer wheesht and havers and all that, I'm to high-strung for this ha ha ha http://i55.tinypic.com/t6zf52.jpg Thanks jno for steppin' in, I'll post a reply the next time I have two minutes to spare. Been busy negotiating a hotel deal for the Yeti. The Rica Hotel remember you well Neti but they'll be "closed for... for... for now" they said when I mentioned your imminent visit. However, I stressed the importance of roofs caving in and plumbing freezing and they actually recommended this place instead. I hear good things about it http://i53.tinypic.com/2cy16bl.jpg

lol@ Robi getting Charlie and a shrub mixed up! / Shaney we want pictures of you in a Bavarian suit!/ Nice drawing for you Vinny, I gave it 5 hearts. / Lottie GH has to be Grumpy Husband ha ha ha?

mornin blossoms...
how comes Ive had no snow..taint fair..i can see it on the hills of exmoor in the distance.erm.I was gonna put some tampons in the bran tub..sweedie beat me to it..the ones with wings,then you could fly over the snow hehe.!fab hotel for netti..hahaha.catch yer laters:O)

[netibiza]

Waves to all,

Lovely photo of Charlie, bet he doesn't stay out in the snow for too long. Beautiful garden robi.
Much as I envy you all the snow, it does look very inconvenient. Am watching Sky News. Everything comes to a stand still, so guess it can't be too much fun.

Thanks swedie for the hotel, but anything that has plumbing probs is a nogo as Mr N would be there mending it all, he mends anything that is wrong wherever we go, and anyway the people there are wearing summer clothes, not ideal!

Woofy, do the pups like frollicking in the snow? Hope Mr Woofy is warm and cosy and not going anywhere.

Glad you made it shaney, do hop mr s is getting on well and feeling better.

Hi to jno, jude dolly and vinny.

It was 2yrs today that my charlie cat had to be put to sleep, I am still very sad.

Ibiza, early morning, no snow!

[jno]

couple of inches of snow here, the most we've had yet. Still, it's not all bad news, you know, as I've just been informed:

Santa's Sleigh Is Steering Towards Flookburgh

Santa Claus has set his Sleigh Nav for LA11 7LS and will soon have his reindeer steering a course for Ducky's Park Farm, at Flookburgh, in the South Lakes.

[Robinia]

Good moaning frozen friends...<glares at neti>
Yet more snow, deep but definitely no joyload, grrrrr....not holding my breath (well actually I do when I go outside, it's so cold it hurts) but the word is it's going to change for the better from the weekend onwards. Anyway washing's just finished so if you want to the honours neti....?

Vincent you're in the wrong place if that's what you think we need in the tub, tut...try here :o)
http://www.cartoonsto...m/lowres/rjo0229l.jpg

Don't be sad neti, I miss Macpoodle at this time of yr, he loved xmas and snow...and he'd have loved wee Charlie too.
oh dear, I've gone all Scottish tha noo ;o)

[netibiza]

Just been out shopping , got Mr N's present, well one of them! it's chillier than normal but still only need to wear jeans, boots and too think jumpers and am sweating the noo!! Horrible mixed coloured pegs, <<< vomits in disgust >>>, I could no more use those than I could kiss a spider! I'll bring my "snow white" pegs (ha ha sorry for the pun, yes intended!)

I remember now how cold it can get there and the pain in the chest when breathing, oh that is awful, I used to breathe into my scarf! I do sympathise. but would love to experience it one more time!

[Jude123]

Morning all. Hope you are all keeping warm and dry. I've made one early morning trip to the paper shop and one later to to the Co-op. usually drive to Sainsburys but stilll haven't got my car back from Son no 2. yet. He reckons he'll have to keep it until after tomorrow night as he has a gig to get to. A Dire Straits tribute one.
They have changed their names to Brothers in Arms Now. I have no idea why.
Don't mention washing to me Robi. I have bed covers and clothes hanging round my spare bedroom with the heating full on trying to get them dry. It's all wrong in the Winter you wear thick clothes and in the Summer thin so the drying process is all back to front if you see what I mean.
Yes Kit is a lovely lady and she has helped me very kindly regarding the ring.
I shall not forget it.
I will be writing more christmas cards today. I wrote all my 'specials' as I call them yesterday.

You may have seen this link but I think it is beautiful singing. Hope you do.

think sweater - like this think suit?

http://visualfunhouse...day-suit-clothing.jpg

No actually I meant thin sweaters!!!

[shaneystar2]

Hi all
Yes it's warmed up a degree or two here but that may be due to the snow that's just plonked down and the easing off of the wind .
Hope you're all OK and keeping warm .
I'm full of the Christmas spirit and in true Bah Humbug mode I've just given Virgin Media a kick right up the jacksy .
They only put a reconditioned modem in which still has someone elses Email account on it .No wonder I can't access mine .I told them quite bluntly that I don't pay good money for second hand gear and if they didn't get a technician here today I would take my business elsewhere .
I felt sorry for the poor guy on the phone really and told him nothing personal as I wouldn't want their jobs for all the tea in China but it's not on .
No wonder Bransons a ruddy millioniare if they employ these sort of tactics .Grrrrr..


I think it's time for some proper Crimble spirit :)) The sort that comes in a bottle ..
