Goodnight and Good Moaning

Spring and Autumn are my favourite times of the year. I hate this going straight from Winter to Summer shinnanigans. I have a complete Spring wardrobe that deserves to be seen. :cool:

looksee

Ah don't worry OG, spring will follow shortly.

It's the little things that make me happy. Just completed the first mow of the year Think I deserve a little tipple after all that effort. Would someone like to get me a little Tio Pepe?

i've seen you putting a dash of whiskey in your porridge.....

Galen

Anyone seen Father Jack? The last time I saw him he had the drink trolley with him :-D

OldGoat

I'll have a cup of Earl Grey. :cool:

looksee

Sherry, now there's a thought.

Rubecula

Cheese and Port is another thought. I think.

Where are you Spread, with your morning moan?

Spread

Here. In both mind and spirit. But things have been a little on the hectic side over the past six weeks ........... culminating in us buying a house and an acre and a half just outside of town. We were informed yesterday that our bid was accepted. Sold as seen - but the bones of it are OK and I've spent a lifetime in the building game. It's a wreck and will take me about six months to get ready. The money and the area were right, so feck it! Signing in the next two weeks and I plan to start renovating next November after my holiday in the auld sod.
If any of you would like to see before and after pics .......... PM me.

Good Moaning all

Spread

Just back from Brattleboro, Vt where HSH beat me 2 - 1 in Tenpin. But I got her back in downing a bottle and a half of Merlot with my Lamb Jalfrezi ....... so she had to drive home.
Goodnight and Good Moaning

My Mam passed away early this morning. I probably won't be on here for a few days. I feel a bit sad.

very sorry to hear your sad news Alice, my thoughts and prayers are with you and your family

Jellybaby1

Sorry to hear your sad news Alice, sincere condolences. I know what you are going through as I've already been through that experience quite a long time ago now. It's a hard time I know. God bless.

Ramette

Alice so so sorry to hear about your mum. The death of a parent is never easy no matter what age you are. My heart goes out to you and your family at this time xx

Spread

Sorry to hear your sad news Alice.

Cool and windy with snow further north ........... just like over there!

Have started studying the rules of the road for my theory test ........ downloaded 106 pages :eek:. This includes how to apply a tourniquet (in the event of a serious crash). Was allowed to drive on my Irish licence for a year.

Goodnight and Good Moaning

OldGoat

I was driving on my Irish license in the UK for 8 years. I finally bit the bullet and changed over to a UK license about a year before I moved back here. 17 years later and I'm still using my UK license. It's valid till 2034 or something silly like that. Should see me out.

That is weird, that makes you a fair bit younger than me. I feel very old suddenly.

I need a hug.

OldGoat

Ah sure I'm a sprightly young fecker, in here by chance. I came for a visit and stayed for Nurses lovely array of drugs.

old pat[who lives next door] is very lucky to keep his licence,he has just retired and has spent a big part of his pension on a very powerful B M W,the other night he was speeding down the M 6,and noticed a police car following,so he put his foot down to try and lose him,after about a mile he said to himself,;i am not a kid anymore and i am being silly;so he stopped ,the policeman came over and said;you know you were doing 90 mph,and i hope you have a good reason or you will lose your licence,old pat said,a few years ago my wife ran away with a policeman and i thought you were bringing her back,he got away with it
