it's a lovely shot of the wee girl

To heck with the criticism , you have caught her in what is probably a typical attitude .

You can be proud of that one .

She's a lovely kiddie and I hope all goes well with the arrival of #2 , that Centon is going to get a LOT of use in the next few months.

< stunned>

The erudition of some of our members leaves me speechless

Welcome Bonehead

Hope you will settle in well

Do you like Beer ?

MY WORD !

How the Bull Ring has changed since I was last there in the mid/ late 60s

It weren't like that then - honest

-

Gwyn - it was his choice He's coming in to check the plaster is completely dry and as he is also an electrician is finishing moving 2 electric points for me then too - so the painting is straight forward .

He was recommended by my plumbers who subcontract work to him. The plumbers have been in business , man and boy since 1900 !! They are my first port of call for help = thanks to them I now have a good roofing man , they do my plumbing and I now have a wee man who with his sons can cover joinery and electrical work .

Train leaves at 13.00 tomorrow so I'll be in Glasgow about 18.50 if all goes well - then my wee tame taxi driver[ a really nice Indian gentleman ] will pick me up and take me home - and carry my case in I know without asking that he's taken the trouble to drive past the house at least twice a day while I've been away to check that all looks well

hmm - and miss all the free coffee ?

Occasionally us Oldies get the bargains - thanks to my Senior Rail card I got a return FIRST CLASS ticket for £69

Last time I travelled 2nd class I paid almost the same and had to endure a baby being changed on the table I was seated at - not a nice moment or two !! I cannot understand anyone doing that

I knew Andrew would like those levers

I promise if I'm back next year there will be a very sharp pic of it

It really wasn't easy and I'll admit my hand was shaking badly while I grabbed it - I then had all the crockery to put in the cupboard

Now in London - exhausted I have to admit

Next time I go I'll get a decent shot of this - this was where we actually ate and did our washing up The cupboard was the huge old crockery cupboard and I never noticed the lock last year

Not easy getting this as there were about 20 folk milling about at the time . I just thought it was fascinating.

Let me get home first

It's still early in Brussels and I'll be heading for the Eurostar later this morning then one night in London and I'll be home on Saturday evening.

Consumption of beer last night was fun - 2 bottles of Leffe 9% before dinner . Leffe Blonde with dinner and then another new one Bush [ 12.5% ] once we were back in the hotel as a night cap with lots of talk .

Now I need my breakfast and then will shut my case [ I hope ] and head to Midi.
