Quote from: Alex on March 02, 2026, 08:21:59 PMI had the same problem with a pair of faithful old slippers years ago.  In the end we buried them in the garden and gave them a fitting send off. I should add there was plenty of plonk sloshing about at the ' event'

I have a dressing gown that I bought from Reedman's (anyone remember that shop?) when we lived in our last house. We've been here 21 years!  

It's warm, comfortable and very shabby, but it's my favourite!  I do have others. 😁

Looking in the glass and seeing our teeth smiling back at us.

Well,  these men can be very secretive sometimes, Scrumps.  

Was it a bird was it s plane?
No just HIM showing off again

Milly went on the London Eye
She hadn't realised it was so high
She gazed in wonder across the city
Wishing Dan was with her, such a pity
Good heavens something strange just flew by

Quote from: klondike on Today at 09:43:34 AMNota good idea to lock yourself in a bathroom imo. I wouldn't even know if mine worked or not.

No, sorry I phrased that all wrong.   It's not a lock he's putting on,  its just a new handle because the old one has gone all floppy and when you open the door the handle doesn't spring back up again, its just flops about.  
 I went to Wickes the other day and bought a new handle,  but its not a lockable one.

Quote from: Scrumpy on Today at 09:37:16 AMThere is a dog nearby who barks  every morning at around 6:45.
Just three barks.. I think he is telling the world that he is going to have a pee..
He is like an alarm clock.. I would miss hearing him..

I used to keep and breed a lot of birds once, and had about 5 or 6 cockerels of different breeds.  I could identify  who it was cock-a-doodling by their voice,  I knew them that well.   
However,  they were in a small field next to my garden, well away from houses,  but the neighbouring one is only about 15ft from my bedroom window,  and its like he's in the room with me!
Neighbour said the bird is going next weekend.
