Good Morning Milly (at 9.13pm zulu), more power to yer elbow, Lady!

Morning Kitty.  There's a lot more to do here than I thought.  Sad

Mornin' all!

What's all this talk about work and jobs?... oh yes, I think I ought to do some chores really but... well it's Saturday isn't it?

Oh dear it's hard work making decisions, perhaps I'll just go back to bed!

Sitting outside a pub in Chelsea
Why on earth would you do that?

I had watched a bewildered young, ginger furred animal (not a rat) work its way along hedges until it ended up in the middle of the road, where it then stood stock still. Terrified probably.

I think perhaps you should qualify the term 'terrified' here. Do you have rather more detailed evidence that the creature was 'struck with terror'? In these situations, knee-jerk emotive ascription can be less than helpful.

There was a lot of traffic and I could see it was going to get squished.
Pure conjecture on your part. Evidence??

I went out and coaxed it back onto the pavement where it promptly disappeared into the bushes.
You rather lazily assume that its having returned to the pavement has a direct causal relationship with your attmepts at 'coaxing'. Any proof that such attempts on your part with gingery creatures has been effective in the past? No. I thought not.

Mmm, I`d say you`re shaping up nicely for the new term, Martle. Your students will be shaking in their socks ! Cheesy Cheesy

Gorgeous Autumnal morning here, filling me with vim and vigor and the urge to roll up my sleeves and ..... Er, perhaps I`ll make another cup of tea and think about it Grin

Not exactly a heavy night, but a good one. Overpriced (though very pleasant) drinks with a friend who mysteriously happened to have left his wallet in his room  Undecided then back to the college bar for cheap yet terrible beer followed by a whisky. Then a walk home.

Good heavens!  It's morning again.  How time flies. 

Morning all.  Lovely day here, sunny but with an autumnal nip in the air.  R3 has been a bit mundane this morning.  I never thought I'd see the day when I had it on as background music.  All the same, nothing riveting this morning that's stopped me in my tracks and forced me to listen.  Classic FM with no adverts basically.  Sad

Sitting here trying to work out a Christmas Day menu for all my family and suddenly decided that I really feel I'd like a holiday myself instead of cooking for 10 - but.....I think I've left it too late to book a restaurant table for so many.  The first two I've tried - one is fully booked and the other isn't open Christmas Day.  Hmmm. I shall have to weigh this up...try a few more before I give up entirely.

Lovely day here, too. Are you quite better now, Milly? When do you go on holiday?

For the last five years one or other of my sons has cooked Christmas dinner. They do it better than I do, anyway, and enjoy it. In fact I only made Christmas meals for about 15-20 years (quite long enough!) - my mother did it for a long time.

Morning Mary.  Smiley  I'm feeling much better but not totally 100% yet.  It's been a very long process.  We're going on holiday at half-term which starts 19th October.  So looking forward to a couple of weeks break.

I've cooked Christmas dinner for years for everyone.  I've always enjoyed doing it, but this last couple of years I've needed a break.  If we can't get in anywhere I'll cater at home as usual, but I've got a couple more places to try.

Hope you are well and that your cold has gone.

The cold got better and then I got some other bug! Recovering now, I think. Is there something odd about this October? I'm sure I'm not usually ill at this time of year.

Nice day up North...morning to all...can't decide whether to mark some coursework or hoover the roof and the glass I dropped in a drunken whirly last night...maybe I'll just make some breakfast.

Gosh Milly, a Christmas Day menu ? it's only Oct 7th!!

I have always had a dream of going away for Christmas, somewhere quiet, isolated and comfy. I had a colleague who used to take her ( pretty athletic) family up a mountain on Christmas day and they had a packed lunch. It was quiet and wonderful she said. They then had a good meal in the evening or on Christmas Eve. Nice  Grin Grin
