RMweb Premium Popular Post jamie92208 Posted December 28, 2017 RMweb Premium Popular Post Share Posted December 28, 2017 Morning all from a clear and bright village. Yesterday I actually got some muddling done and last night went down to the cub and got the first 4 point motors fired up and working correctly. Baz this wasn't a club night just two saddos going down to do a bit of work. Fortunately we can get in whenever we want to. Anyway today we are apparently off to Asda as the food mountain needs replenishing. Apart from that it might well be more chilling and a hopefully some more work on the control panel. Thoughts still with Rick, Debs and Simon and all others suffering at this time. Regards to all. Jamie 20 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold Tony_S Posted December 28, 2017 RMweb Gold Share Posted December 28, 2017 Good morning. Frosty here. I put a bin bag out. I won't be doing much more today. Tony 15 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
emt_911 Posted December 28, 2017 Share Posted December 28, 2017 Morning all. A chilly start to the day and it's not expected to get much warmer. There are no plans to venture out today however tomorrow might be a different matter. The kit from yesterday is being put to one side while I get on with some of my own modelling. I may go back to it on Saturday. Thoughts with Debs, Rick, Simon et al. Have a good day everyone. 17 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium Popular Post Barry O Posted December 28, 2017 RMweb Premium Popular Post Share Posted December 28, 2017 Good morning from a sunny but heavily frosted North West Leeds Highlands. A good night was had by our sub set of the Leeds MRS, some of whom finished their drinking with a third of a pint or half a pint of black sheep Imperial Russian Stout. Very nice but definitely a sipping beer. Today see Dr Eldest Herbert setting off back to London. He still has some marking to do as UCL took their computer systems down yesterday. The house will return to tranquillity after his departure. Lots of positive thought to Debs, Rick and all others in need of support at the moment. Now, time for a mugatea, so TTFN Baz 21 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium PhilJ W Posted December 28, 2017 RMweb Premium Share Posted December 28, 2017 Morning all from Estuary-Land. A tad nippy this morning but preferable to the wet stuff. Thoughts are with Debs, Rick and Simon at this time. Now time for the second mugatea, be back later. 16 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium newbryford Posted December 28, 2017 RMweb Premium Share Posted December 28, 2017 Yippee, delivery slot of 13.05-14.05 has been advised. I have a DPD delivery coming to work with lots of stuff for the test track. It's due 1204-1304. I know white van men are quick, but Yorkshire-Surrey for the next drop is pushing it a bit......

RMweb Gold The Stationmaster Posted December 28, 2017 RMweb Gold Share Posted December 28, 2017 Morning all, Hard frost but now bright and sunny - just as well as laddo has just set out cross-country having been asked to pop into the office to feed the goldfish. Apparently the deputed holiday time goldfish feeder has gone sick )well that's their story). The Good Doctor has returned to work but her 06.00 start meant she no doubt missed the worst of the frost as it was well before dawn. Meanwhile us aged folk are keeping the house occupied and I believe some sort of food recycling is underway in the kitchen - might mean a chicken pie or possibly chicken soup, and possibly attention to the teapot as I feel the need for a third mugatea coming on. (Dammit - foiled again, she has made herself some coffee ) Have a good day one and all and positive thoughts for those wh are ailing and their families.j 19 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coombe Barton Posted December 28, 2017 Share Posted December 28, 2017 Latest from Debs Keith (Dad) is a lot better - potential discharge in the new year. Debs - now confined to hospital in Liverpool - the problem she was admitted to Derby for hasn't gone away. The problem itself is what she was traveling to Luxembourg for two years ago. Sense of humour and irony undiminished. She'll keep me informed. She didn't say so, but if we do it quietly we can talk trains as long as there's not too much of it Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium TheQ Posted December 28, 2017 RMweb Premium Share Posted December 28, 2017 Afternoon Awl, Large parts of the fallen tree, have been cut away. Much more to do, I took the advantage of getting two separate hours working on the shed layout while the battery of the chainsaw on a stick recharged. The work on the layout, consisted of fixing the plywood tops on several sections of framing. Two sheets of plywood were demolished in the process. I think I have just 3 more sheets to go before I can start actually making baseboards. I'd see they are going on about people not seeing police on the beat in the last year. I doubt there has been a policeman on foot on this street in the last hundred years. Go to the nearest town 5 miles away and I've seen a policeman of foot there twice.... In the last 16 years. Extend that to a twenty five mile radius so you include Norwich Cromer and great Yarmouth then it might be just ten times in the 16 years.... Right time to go into battle with the SSD. 16 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold Tony_S Posted December 28, 2017 RMweb Gold Share Posted December 28, 2017 (edited) Maybe Norfolk isn't an attractive base for ISIS.For some reason our Sky box by default makes our BBC regional service BBC East. The strongest terrestrial signal is BBC London region. The BBC East rarely mentions South Essex. Anglian crime seems a bit different to London crime. Tractor theft and turkey rustling have been mentioned before. Edited December 28, 2017 by Tony_S 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Abel Posted December 28, 2017 Share Posted December 28, 2017 Morning on a NOT BIN day - due to the holiday Monday our BINs are apparently delayed a day... Quiet yesterday and expecting the same today, minor work rumbling for some "lost billings", but provided a swift report to help them figure out how them messed it up Off tonight to see the latest Star Wars with a friend, other than that a slow day all round. -16 (Realfeel -25) with light snow falling, expecting 1-3 inches is all. High of -12 later. 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is remarkably easy to see police on foot in this town - all you need to do is be in the bakers/cake shop at the correct time of day and they'll be there - civvy jackets or coats but the trousers are a giveaway (as is the fact that they are usually accompanied by PCSOs in full uniform). 11 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ozexpatriate Posted December 28, 2017 Share Posted December 28, 2017 Morning on a NOT BIN day - due to the holiday Monday our BINs are apparently delayed a day... Mine too. Usually there is a robocall from the garbage company to inform of a delayed schedule. There wasn't this week. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium NGT6 1315 Posted December 28, 2017 RMweb Premium Share Posted December 28, 2017 E‘ning all. Life seems to be returning to the outside world post C****t**s as the interannum period begins. Which of course means the first premature ejac eruptions of firecrackers are occurring already. Made meatballs with salsify in dill sauce for dinner and now stretching out on the sofa. Question is, which of the two whiskies I got for Chrimbo do I sample now?

RMweb Gold Popular Post grandadbob Posted December 28, 2017 RMweb Gold Popular Post Share Posted December 28, 2017 Evening all, Well DPD were true to their word and a smiling "Hamza" delivered my parcel at 13.32. Inside were the two promised coaches but I haven't yet taken them out of their boxes and tested. Have actually had a lazy afternoon watching some recorded TV as we haven't had the box on for 3 days. Bins have been put out for the morning, only 1 day later than usual although 2 days holiday. This I believe is due to them doing Christmas Day's collection a day earlier on Sunday. Considering the hassle we had when the new service started here they are now performing very well. Only had a light snack tonight but have now followed that up with a glass of port. I might follow that with something else. 20 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
