RMweb Premium AndyB Posted June 20, 2016 RMweb Premium Share Posted June 20, 2016 Stunned by my success in descaling the bath mixer tap lever I embarked on my most ambitious diy project yet..... swmbo has been complaining about the squeaking bathroom door latch. Armed with nothing more than a can of WD40 I approached the task with vigor. Lo, after a few squirts of fluid swmbo was satisfied with my endeavours. She is now able to visit the bathroom without squeaking. Night oil. 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium Barry O Posted June 20, 2016 RMweb Premium Share Posted June 20, 2016 Attended a cricket meeting tonight...jeez some absolute garbage spouted but , as it was SUNNY I could watch some crown green bowling going on behind the "leadership" team NHN - when you think nothing more can go wrong life manages to kick you even harder. Just hope that positive things start to happen for her. Time for some sleep now as I am somewhat tired and a bit het up about some things which I shouldn't be. Sleep well all! Hope the next few days are calm for everyone! Baz 16 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium BSW01 Posted June 20, 2016 RMweb Premium Share Posted June 20, 2016 Good evening everyone. Well I hope I don't have another day like today for some time. I spent about an hour at KWIK FIT in Kendal, the waiting was mainly them waiting for authorisation to replace the tyre. Just before 4 my car returned and I was on my way home, a journey which was thankfully uneventful. No problems encountered at all on the motorways and I arrived home just after 5:00. If the sunshine was down to shedman5, he has my utmost thanks. Can you do the same for tomorrow please? Whilst waiting for the recovery vehicle, I was surprised when a deer suddenly appeared in the road just a few yards from where I was waiting. It looked towards me but was gone before I could get a photo. I was also able to see several RAF jet and propeller type trainers flying above me. After tea I sat down on the sofa and decided that an eyelid inspection was called for, I should really have gone swimming tonight but I just wasn't up to it, I'll go Thursday instead. Simon, Mick, Tony, Phil. As I drive a company car, the leasing firm decide what is checked, tested and/or replaced, they don't always listen to the driver, so the wheel is not due to be replaced anytime soon. Simon Congrats to the both of you on your 35th. Neil. I do hope that Jaynes dog is able to make a full recovery. Night all. 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium PhilJ W Posted June 20, 2016 RMweb Premium Share Posted June 20, 2016 Evening all from Estuary-Land. Just been out in the back garden observing the full moon. The cloud is very high and thin and there's plenty of breaks in the cloud and with the mackerel cloud in another part of the sky and a few contrails it gives a wonderful effect. Only problem is I have no means of photographing it. 12 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium Gwiwer Posted June 20, 2016 RMweb Premium Share Posted June 20, 2016 Happy anniversary to Mr & Mrs Simon Seconded. Glass raised. Morning all. There's a big yellow thing hanging in the sky in much the same way that bricks don't. Probably not a Vogon constructor ship but I'll just pop outside with my towel in case. I may be gone some time. 14 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
emt_911 Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 Morning all. It's good to see another British summers day is with us, grey and a good chance of rain. I slept far to well to the point of not hearing my alarm which doesn't make for a good start. Have a good day everyone Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robert Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 Morning All, We have a rather damp morning here - I don't think it is actually raining as I type, but it was a few minutes ago. It's our wedding anniversary today, but it will be a rather strange day. Mercedes is away on a business trip, and I am going to a funeral. A friend of mine has just lost his partner to cancer. I will be heading into the office later. Have a good day everyone... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisf Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 Good morning one and all It stopped raining just long enough yesterday for a foray into the jungle with a colander in which to place gathered strawberries. The considerably greater task of hoeing out the weeds will have to wait. The blasted things grow more quickly than I can extract them irrespective of climatic conditions. Maybe today, or maybe not. A salute to the BBC's Nick Robinson this morning. Last night his TV programme conveyed more coherent information about Thursday's vote in half an hour than all the guff and scaremongering spouted by both sides in the debate over the past several months. We shall see soon enough how many have made up their minds and will not be swayed by facts. Today will see a routine fodder run and confirmation that once again I have been unsuccessful in the national lottery. The world continues to rotate on its axis. I also have correspondence to answer but cannot do this until I have located the correspondence. Did I ever tell you that I am the untidiest man on the planet? With the hope that Dave and Is are settled into the routine, best wishes to the ailing, recovering, supporting, grieving, missing and depressed.

RMweb Premium Popular Post Barry O Posted June 21, 2016 RMweb Premium Popular Post Share Posted June 21, 2016 Happy anniversary Robert and Mercedes. I need to buy a card for her indoors as its our 37th Anniversary on Thursday. Lummy what did I do wrong??? We have ups and downs, more ups than downs, just need to get her to retire. Sunny but cloudy here at the moment. Finishing off a commission is first on the Agenda today followed by card buying, present wrapping and house tidying. Enjoy your day as much as you can Baz 22 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyID Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 Morning all from a sunny Surrey. This morning my other half has dropped me at Caterham station due to guards strike on Southern. First train off is the one to Vic then the one I am catching to LBG Gordon Bennett! The punter reading his paper needs a lesson in sartorial acceptability. Tan shoes and a blue suit?

RMweb Premium Popular Post NGT6 1315 Posted June 21, 2016 RMweb Premium Popular Post Share Posted June 21, 2016 Mawnin' awl. First up, sending a round of thoughts to everyone under the weather, and also, belated congratulations to Simon and his better half, and timely ones to Robert and Mercedes! Ian, the second and fourth of your Caterham photos made me wonder how much of a challenge it would be to create this kind of backyard appearance on a layout. (Dangerous thoughts there…) Yesterday I had what I have now taken to calling the Big Red One: …which is 1111 "Johann Wolfgang von Goethe" with a newly applied advertisement for the Leipzig Savings Bank, which replaced an older design on the same car. Followed by 2132-923, which for a mini train ran acceptably. However, I am not really fond of these formations, as they do lack power and thus are fairly sluggish to drive for the most part. Later… 21 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold Donw Posted June 21, 2016 RMweb Gold Share Posted June 21, 2016 Morning all somewhat drier today. I see ChrisF cannot resist the R topic. This is not the place to discuss it.

RMweb Premium New Haven Neil Posted June 21, 2016 RMweb Premium Share Posted June 21, 2016 Morning. Jayne and dog off to doggy hospital in Merseyside this morning, lets hope they can help. Losing two dogs in a fortnight isn't on. Maybe they can help Jayne too! Congrats belatedly to Simon and Mrs Simon, missed you yesterday, sorry, and Robert and Mercedes today - hopefully you will get to celebrate at the weekend. I doubt Chris's claim to be the world's untidiest man - I am assured it is me, and I wouldn't deny it! 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
