gordon s Posted March 2, 2010 Share Posted March 2, 2010 Morning all. Apologies, but I do have a note from my Mum re yesterday. Seems I'm really slipping into this retirement lark and it's taking a while to get started in the morning..... Quite cold, but clear sky, so bright and sunny. 26 years from a boiler? Shame, but then I guess you've probably had your money's worth... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sixoh8sixoh Posted March 2, 2010 Share Posted March 2, 2010 "it was installed in 1984, and it maybe time to think about a new one!" Possibly. We have some weird scrappage scheme in the UK - don't know if it's operational yet. Don't think it extends to Mainz. Well, you might have in Wales and England, but not here in Scotland! :icon_frustrated: Morning all! My absence was clearly noted by Don yesterday! Just attempted to install Windows 7 on my Mac with Boot Camp. We shall see if it works... Anyway, time to go to work, I guess... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold Tony_S Posted March 2, 2010 RMweb Gold Share Posted March 2, 2010 Morning all. Sunny but 0C here. I only had to scrape the rear window of my wife's car this morning though. I'm waiting for the man from Sky TV to come and change my Sky+ box for a Sky HD box. He will be here about 9am. Not too sure what else I'm supposed to today, lots of clothes washing probably.

RMweb Premium eldavo Posted March 2, 2010 RMweb Premium Share Posted March 2, 2010 Morning All, Clear bright one again. I have no option but to go into the office today, a whole bunch of old bu**ers are having a retirement do and it would be rude not to go and partake of the odd beverage. No way I can manage one for each of them though as there's a huge number leaving on Friday. I could probably attend a "do" every day this week if I was so minded. Gonna be a bit quieter around the place next week! Have a good one all. Cheers Dave Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium skipepsi Posted March 3, 2010 RMweb Premium Share Posted March 3, 2010 Morning all I am a bit bemused by the lack of earlier risers this morning is there a glitch? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DonBradley Posted March 3, 2010 Share Posted March 3, 2010 Good morning. I am about but didn't have anything to say, so I didn't say it! Another lovely day Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium NGT6 1315 Posted March 3, 2010 RMweb Premium Share Posted March 3, 2010 Morning all! Apologies for not chiming in yesterday - had a full agenda. It's -1.2° outside, but sunny - looks like a nice day . See y'all later . Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold BoD Posted March 3, 2010 RMweb Gold Share Posted March 3, 2010 I am about but didn't have anything to say, so I didn't say it! A wise mantra. I'm sure that by the time our election is over there will be many others who should have applied it..... but won't. Morning all Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robert Posted March 3, 2010 Share Posted March 3, 2010 Morning All, It is pretty quiet around here this morning! I didn't get a chance to post earlier as I had a few things to do before another all day workshop. The weather is quite reasonable today - blue sky and sunshine, although it is a bit on the chilly side. Have a good day everyone :icon_wave: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium 45156 Posted March 3, 2010 RMweb Premium Share Posted March 3, 2010 Greetings Cold here (again) but sunny with it. I've been given a back to work date (on restricted hours) of Monday next. Three sessions of physio this week - plus fracture clinic for final x-ray to be sure all is OK. Decided after physio yesterday to take a trip to Preston to get some speaker cable, and for a trip on a Pendolino - achieved both. Richer Sounds is still as good as ever - didn't have the cable I wanted in stock (although their computer said they had) so upgraded to a vastly superior cable which they did at the price of the one I wanted - the one I wanted was about half the price. On the way back, got stuck with the Transpennine 185 to Glasgow - I wouldn't like to have to do the whole run on that one! Just as we were about to pull out, a bloke turned to the carriage in general and asked what time we arrived in Blackpool - when he was told this was a Glasgow service he headed for the door just as the peeping started and the doors slid shut on him. Luckily the ticket inspector endorsed his ticket so he could return from Lancaster with no excess fare. Rest of this week is busy with hospitals and things so I might not get on again this week. Talk to you whenever... Stewart Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DonBradley Posted March 3, 2010 Share Posted March 3, 2010 I hope the back to work goes O.K. Try to keep in touch, though I appreciate it might be difficult. How is the driving going? Fun on the train. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium NGT6 1315 Posted March 3, 2010 RMweb Premium Share Posted March 3, 2010 Just read a news article about how one or more unknown committers dispersed ethylbenzene at a school in Wiesbaden, resulting in 55 students suffering injuries, with eighteen of them being hospitalized for treatment. Just what the H did those who did this think they were doing? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium 45156 Posted March 3, 2010 RMweb Premium Share Posted March 3, 2010 Driving is still a bit awkward, but improving - it'll have to, as we are running VERY low on eatables now, and a trip to the suoermarket for the stuff that we can't get on the bus is in order. But it does make me wonder how the carless among us cope now that just about everything that you need is in the vast emporia on the out of town sites.

sixoh8sixoh Posted March 3, 2010 Share Posted March 3, 2010 Morning all (just). Been in to work and have now come back home. Decided the only way to get a bit of work done that I've been trying to do is to work from home. Sick of being interrupted by phone or in person queries and not being able to get a good run at writing what I want to write. So once the cuppa's made and the compurlter's ready to use I'll crack on... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold Tony_S Posted March 3, 2010 RMweb Gold Share Posted March 3, 2010 Just read a news article about how one or more unknown committers dispersed ethylbenzene at a school in Wiesbaden, resulting in 55 students suffering injuries, with eighteen of them being hospitalized for treatment. Just what the H did those who did this think they were doing? They probably "thought" it would be "amusing" to release something with an unpleasant odour in the school. The warning symbols only seem to encourage some people. When I was at school there were chemicals out the lab that would have to be locked away now or not used in school at all.

So once the cuppa's made and the compurlter's ready to use I'll crack on... I'm just off out. Every time I move or make a sound Robbie is reminding me it is time to go for a walk so as I'm finding it impossible to type silently I'd better go out.
