RMweb Gold Popular Post big jim Posted December 11, 2022 RMweb Gold Popular Post Share Posted December 11, 2022 Dunno what’s happened to me this afternoon, gethin was sick all through the night, Dominic woke up feeling lousy and I was ok about lunch time then all of a sudden sickness just hit me like a brick wall, started shivering and couldn’t stop once I got under the bed covers for a sleep, every joint aching too woke up feeling sick and was in the loo but not as bad as gethin, splitting head ache, trying to get some water down me as I’m probably dehydrated, hopefully I’ll be ok for work tomorrow afternoon 23 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium polybear Posted December 11, 2022 RMweb Premium Share Posted December 11, 2022 (edited) Bear has......snow..... About 1.5 - 2 inches so far, and still going - but slowly. Not exactly a repeat of '63 just yet. Tea tonite was.....ReadyBrek (o.k, a rip-off version of R.B.); I stocked up with numerous packets of it during the first lockdown when people were going nutz in the shops - it can be made with water instead of milk at a pinch (though it's not as nice, but still ok) and I figured that if things started getting really serious then I might be very glad of it. Bung a few Sultanas in it (= 1 of 5 a day) and you can live on it. Edited December 11, 2022 by polybear 13 2 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Erichill16 Posted December 11, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted December 11, 2022 Evening All, Despite yesterday’s pessimism I did get over to Manchester. Still didn’t fancy going first thing this morning but SWMBO almost insisted we went so who am I to disagree. Very photogenic over Woodhead and we arrived at about 11.00am. Took SWMBO to the shopping centre and then proceeded to find out what Baz was up to in a sports centre. Very enjoyable three hours spent and a bit of cash spent as well. Having said that this week I’ve been to three m*d*L shops and an exhibition and still have got more money in my pocket than I did at the beginning of the week. (Returned a faulty item and got a refund and then bought a replacement for £20 less at the exhibition AND checked that it ran properly before leaving the building). Did a bit of shopping with SWMBO and collected Hovis on the way home. A good day all in all, the best I’ve had for a bit. Goodnight. 18 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium PhilJ W Posted December 11, 2022 RMweb Premium Share Posted December 11, 2022 Still snowing here but a lot less than earlier. About four inches (ten cm.) deep.

All good now, I had signatures ok last week not sure how that got changed, I blame Gary The Parrot - he trudges across my keyboard and my screen goes to portrait, or my language goes to Sanskrit or all my windows go tiny - it always takes me ages to reverse engineer his footsteps. 2 1 11 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Finally got around to watching the Big Freeze of 63 documentary this afternoon and was struck by the innocence of childhood. I had no idea about the effects on the country... to me, it was a few days off school and the greatest adventure of my life. Put me in the mood for more snow-related telly so I watched the first episode of Frozen Planet II. Also enjoyable but things aren't looking great for Polybears 😕 14 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold big jim Posted December 11, 2022 RMweb Gold Share Posted December 11, 2022 (edited) I think I’ve sweated the fever out, had some tablets and water, sweat pouring off me and now I feel a lot better, seen it have a bit of rumbling in my ears though bit worried about the weather tomorrow, I’ve got to drive to nuneaton in the afternoon to pick up my train, work it north then it’s a drive back from Carlisle at 22:30 which I’m a bit worried about, I might see if I can get a hotel in Carlisle instead if it looks dodgy, only issue is I’m working Tuesday evening out if Mountsorrel and as there are no trains is still have to drive back the next day, strangely there is no snow at all in crewe but appears to be quite heavy not too far away (crewe has its own micro climate thanks to the Cheshire plain and Peak District mountains) EDIT: just started snowing in the last 10 minutes Edited December 11, 2022 by big jim 2 2 11 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium BSW01 Posted December 11, 2022 RMweb Premium Share Posted December 11, 2022 Good evening everyone Well despite good intentions, I never actually got any boxes shifted today. I first decided to put in the kits I bought yesterday, as well as the spare wheels I got as well. I then began box shifting, I’d got the first one in and when I went to put it in place, I remembered that I hadn’t filled in a hole between our house and our neighbours house. The hole is to let airflow between them, but it also lets in dust etc if they have any real mucky jobs done, we know this from the neighbour on the other side and the work they had done created a lot of mess in our house. There are still air bricks at the front so air will still get in, I’ve just sealed both neighbours houses off from ours. I was hoping to put up some plasterboard off cuts if Ian had any suitable bits from when he did Ava’s bedroom, but he used up all the big bits. So, the box was taken back out and I sorted through the small pile of bricks and found 4 suitable ones to file the holes. After dinner I cemented them in place, I just need to paint over them and I can then resume the box shifting. Although I’m going to take a few days off as my right thumb is really giving me a bit of grief. I’ve know idea what I’ve done and I don’t know why it’s bothering, I’m right handed so it’s not like I’ve hit it with a hammer or anything. 1 14 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
