Good Morning All :)



Nice celeb meeting stories on yesterday's blog :) I am so tempted to go and try and catch a glimpse of Alexander Skarsgard next week, because it'll probably be the best chance I ever get to see him in person.



No swifts here, lots of other feathered friends though, including a blackbird that has been through the wars as many of his feathers are missing :(



My choice today for the ARFO is as cheesy as they come, but I can't resist, and it is pretty noisy from the get go...



UNDER THE MOON OF LOVE - SHOWADDYWADDY



I am off out for a bit, but hopefully I'll have time to pop in later.



BFN xx

Morning Simon and fellow bloggers



Following my discussion on the blog yesterday with Paul of Sheffield on the merits of the very fine Half Man Half Biscuit, I decided for the drive into work this morning I would forgo the pleasures of Radio 2 and Richard Madeley and play HMHB last album the wonderful CSI:Ambleside from 2008 .



I must say driving though the traffic free Yorkshire countryside with the early morning sun lighting up the moors was an absolute pleasure. A pleasure heightened by the car CD pumping out such tracks as "Evening of Swing (Has Been Cancelled)”, "Took Problem Chimp to Ideal Home Show” and "Give Us Bubble wrap"



Therefore you might presume that my request for ARFO would be the classic "99% Of Gargoyles Look Like Bob Todd“ or “Running Order Squabble Fest” a song that builds to the magnificent punch line of "you're going on after Crispy Ambulance" . I know being a realist that HMHB are not going to selected for ARFO, even though that is a pity!



Therefore my request as usual for ARFO is :-



COMMON PEOPLE – PULP



Wharfedale Andy

Morning again,

Still in the garden - the sun has moved round and is now full on my laptop keyboard,,ouch!

ARFO as per usual:



BOHEMIAN LIKE YOU the Dandy Warhols...



comes in mighty fine at the start, no waiting for the hook Lord Ammo!!



OR

I LOVE ROCK AND ROLL: Joan Jett and the Blackhearts

- heard this the other day while in a 'trendy' clothes shop - and thought 'what a perfect ARFO' !! So here it is, suggested - the rest is up to Lord Ammo and DT team.

I may even send by Muggle-mail, just to press the point home..

Have a nice day y'all

Just a quick poop in with my ARF, it would be ironic if it were to be played today as not a chance of hearing it, although there is the i player thingy wotnot...



*** Twilight *** by ELO please.



MTF.xx

Hi Simon and everyone.



Thanks all for your praise of my story yesterday, glad you enjoyed it. I have another cracker about my failed 1st driving test...its a conversation stopper if ever I heard one!



And Simon are swifts those birdies with the forked tail? Or am I thinking Swallows?



Anyway tip noted ....check out these bad boy ARF's?



1. TOO MUCH TOO YOUNG - Little Angels ( the first support act in 1992 on that BA Tour).

2. MOVE ON UP - Curtis Mayfield

3. TWO TRIBES - Frankie Goes to Hollywood

4. HOLLYWOOD NIGHTS - Bob Seager

5, MORE THAN A FEELING - Boston



Oh well must jump to it.



Have a good day.



Laters.



Mandy :)

Morning everyone,



I got a bit bored with my blog name so decided to have a change - hope you all approve. It's actually a bit of a nod to Mr C who has a particularly sweet tooth (I'm firmly of the opinion he was an ant in a former life). We usually have Saturday Kitchen on at the weekend - we decided if he was ever on the show his food heaven would be 'cake' and food hell would be 'no cake' - can't argue with that.



Anyways, my ARFO suggestion this week is:



Gimme Some Good Lovin' - The Spencer Davis Group



I think that ticks all of the boxes...



Have a satisfying Friday one and all.

Good Morning All



Simon & Team –



Please may I request



THE BEAT - by The Look ?



A wall of sound from the beginning. It doesn’t build or get louder, it starts fast and loud and stays that way.



It is the most rhythmicallyinspiringsteeringwheelanddashboardthumping song from the very first second to the very last..



AND – as I’ve said before –



IF IT WASN’T FOR THE BEAT – THERE WOULD BE NO MUSIC AT ALL!







Love





BP

Morning Simon, Team and fellow blogpoppets,



Simon, I loved your description of the swifts. I, too, feel the loss of our summer visiting birds when they fly south for winter. Talking of our winged friends, the wonderful Mobile Tooth Fairy seems to be having a wonderful holiday in France, I hope that she spots the elusive but magnificent hoopoe.



Now, I have taken on board your ARF tips, Simon. And so proffer the following for your delectation:



Geno by Dexy's Midnight Runners



Beat Surrender by The Jam



Rocking All Over The World by Status Quo



Have a wonderful weekend all, and fingets crossed that a blogger gets lucky at

5-05!!



madchick x

#5 it would be ironic if Boston were finally played, as I have requested that for ages!!



RE good supporting bands (I think this could run and run) I enjoyed the Boomtown Rats supporting Tom Petty in 1977 and their (the Rats') version of Route 66 was voted the best out of the two bands' versions by the Birmingham Evening Mail....they were fairly 'raw' to be fair, but that was the way music was in those days.

Normally watched standing up, elbowed by pogo-ing crowds, on sticky carpets (carpets if you were lucky)- none of this 'grandad rock' as I call it, where nowadays folks sit politely and watch a big screen in a huge arena, and part with £60 each towards the Rock band's pension fund...

Rant over, I'll get my coat (studded leather jacket, natch)

Morning all. Now that term has ended and I have 7 halcyon weeks of summer stretching ahead of me, I find myself relaxed and in the mood for a rockin' ARF.



My suggestion: You Give Love a Bad Name - Bon Jovi (fills all of Simon's stated requirements)



Zoe - please tell me more about the gorgeous AS and how to catch a glimpse ......



Off to get my hair done now - get all the grey covered that this term has put there!

Hi again Simon and bloggers



We don't have any Swifts here but we do have a cute pigeon I rescued from a neighbour's cat nearly three weeks ago and have nursed him from this poor wee injured thing..... https://farm7.static.flickr.com/6121/5939709752_91975b117e_b.jpg



two weeks on..... https://farm7.static.flickr.com/6010/5939709766_5c36d1fe97_b.jpg



and here in the ivy on our wall a couple of days ago, so cute and very gentle....

https://farm7.static.flickr.com/6010/5939709766_5c36d1fe97_b.jpg



I have tried to get him to leave home but he keeps returning! He won't be getting warm peas and sweetcorn out in the countryside!



How about this summery song while the weather is so good?



BEACH BABY ~ First Class



or something a bit more rocky.....



BORN TO BE WILD ~ Steppenwolf



Lucie's Mum x

Morning all



No inspiration today, so no suggestion from me.



Simon - when we were on holiday in Kefalonia last month the house martins were still feeding their chicks and so were swooping and chattering all the time; and we were lucky enough to have a nest with 4 chicks in near our room, so we got to see the parents flying in a feeding them and seeing them testing their wings - it only needed Chris Packham around to make it perfect!



Back later



Tortie x

Going to have to request my favourites once again:



LEARN TO FLY - FOO FIGHTERS



BREAKOUT - FOO FIGHTERS



Both start loud, and stay that way!

oops... where's the edit button when you need it????



This was meant to be the third pic of my rescued pigeon sitting....



https://farm7.static.flickr.com/6005/5939709762_cd997635e9_b.jpg



He's a cute wood pigeon so I've named him Woody!



xx

#11 LuciesMum - what a lovely story and pictures - well done you! (and a very lucky pigeon)

Good morning Simon, NYM, Team and blogpoppets!



Friday! Woo Hoo!



ARFO? Inspired by shuffle on my ipod....



Devil Gate Drive - Suzi Quatro



Hello MTF. Nice to see you pooping in and getting your ARFO request in. When are you home? Off to read back properly.



X

Just thought of one:



I GOT A FEELIN' - Black Eyed Peas



T x

morning again :-)



ARFO



PRETTY VACANT THE SEX PISTOLS



saw them at Hammersmith Apollo Sept 2008 on their Combine Harvester Tour...deaf for three days after the gig otherwise felt 16 again!!!



PSL x

Tortie, I'm slightly worried that he's a bit too tame for a pigeon because he will sit on my hand if I hold it out for him! My husband thinks I'm bonkers, but I had to look after him and thankfully the cat dropped him when my dogs barked at it, otherwise the cat would probably have killed it!



I kept him in a big box until he was stronger, then I put him in an old cockatiel cage where he had a perch and could sit in the garden and watch other birds. I presume/hope he will always come back and visit us and I have no idea where he came from, unless the cat carried him from a distance!



Anyway, he's looking fit and strong now after his sad start in life, but his tail doesn't look very long... maybe they don't get full length tails until they're older!

You Shook Me All Night Long - AC/DC.



SM said earlier (via Mosh) that any AC/DC promotes good comment. Why not let's keep it going this ARF? Ticks all those boxes.....

Good Morning Simon, team, NYM and Blogpoppets



I've been watching the swifts recently as well, mainly in the evenings when I take my (late) dog walk. Amazing to watch their aerobatic manouvers! I've nearly walked into a lamp-post a couple of times...



I love Friday blogs - it's great to be able to saunter in at any point during the morning to make my suggestions. Although I have to say the mensh chasing hasn't been quite so frantic of late. So, for the ARFO wall of sound, hows about:



SOMETHING ABOUT YOU by Level 42



Or alternatively I'd be quite happy to hear:



NO MORE HEROES by The Stranglers



#3 We'll still count it as a blogger ARFO if yours get chosen, Suzie - even if it is via muggle-mail!



~X~

Morning all! Quick request from me, how about "Enola Gay" by OMD or indeed "Vertigo" by U2?



Must dash before the client realises I am using their wi-fi!



GB

Speaking of meeting famous musos, I did spend a New Years Eve 2002 in my local village pub with the Supergrass boys, whose parents (and some of the band) still lived in our village- Gaz was trying to go incognito, with a cream long coat and cream fedora! Nice one, Gazza.

Happy Fridays All Round

:^)



Swifts galore and mended pigeons, colourful hoopoes and some fine Choon Choosing - I just LOVE this place.





REWARD – TEARDROP EXPLODES

So I suppose it's only fair if I suggest



ALRIGHT by Supergrass



But am 99% sure it has already been ARFO'd as it is the perfect tune...

Hi peeps!



Well, I've tweeted a request to Our Simon, but having read his hints and tips above, may I please throw into the Hat of ARFO .....



LUST FOR LIFE - IGGY POP



or



ROCKS - PRIMAL SCREAM



Hope you're all dandy, and looking forward to the weekend. Apologies for absinthe - no excuses, I'm just tardy.



Still love you all tho!



;-)



Deevs

Hello All,



Quick pop in from me.



No ARF as had one played the other week, but good suggestions so far so fingers crossed for everybody



Have a good day one and all

Hi Deevs - good to see you

That reminds me - Mr Rolastic doesn't get chance to pop in very often - so today - as another ARFO request - I shall go for a James' Choon ...





WALTZING ALONG - JAMES





:^)

He'll like that Katy - thank you! He's a somewhat stressed MrRolastic at the mo as it's "year end" where he works. I'm not sure what that entails or means but it's keeping him very very busy!



Soooooooooooooooooo glad it's Friday. My mission for tonight is try and get him nice and relaxed for the weekend!



x

#29 Unusual time of year for a year end Deevs. Had too many encounters with them over the years. Glad to have detoured away from that. He has my sympathies.



X

Thanks Mo! He was at work just after 7.30 yesterday morning and got home just before 7pm last night. That's a long old day to be looking at figures and number crunching IMO.



The company I work for is at "year end" too apparently.



x

Good morning all



Swifts swooping round our cotttage here in Brittany as well.



Love to hear the show start with :-



The Rolling Stones and ROUTE 66



Enjoy the day

Is it really half way through July already?! Where is this year going?!! Only 3 weekends until Cambridge Rock Festival and a to do list thats as long as my arm! Right best get to laminating some passes then!



Bring on the weekend - Boom!



GIMMIE ALL YOUR LOVIN' - ZZ TOP



xxx

Greetings one and all. My non-flagging ARF suggestions to celebrate the end of the week are:



PINBALL WIZARD - THE WHO

BACK IN THE USSR - THE BEATLES

ROCK THE CASBAH - THE CLASH



Some foot stomping stuff!!



From Dougal x

[b][u]COMMON PEOPLE - PULP [/u][/b]



sorry for the repeat ,but just checking that the bold function works !!!

#35



Andy - it doesn't.







:^D

#36



Katy - I noticed , old men and computers don't mix !!! ;-(

*is becoming concerned about SWALLOWED A MOTH of SHEFFIELD*



I do hope that his lack of presence on a Friday isn't due to toxic moth syndrome ..

Good afternoon,



Good luck with the ARFO requests. Some great ones have been suggested.



Have a good day.x

Katy @38 - fear not, he is still whooooooping me something chronic at Scrabs on Facecloth!



x

Could have done with a 3 worder today....



Too Much Mayo.....



Not of the Lord Ammo variety, of course, but on the sandwich I have just consumed. I didn't make it myself!



X

Arftanune all!! Hope everybody's day goes swimmingly. Good luck to everyones requests.



Sorry again for my absence (can I claim prize for World's Worst Blogger?) - things keep coming up. Oh what it is to be busy. Off to Oxfordshire for Arftanune school run today - the poor kids from Langtree school won't know what's not hit them!



ARFO suggestion:



SCORPIONS: WIND OF CHANGE



I hope the Fridays of the good bloggers are everything they could wish for.



Deasant Play



MP

Afternoon,



Down on the corner - Creedence clearwater revival



Going up the country - Canned Heat



Crazy crazy nights - Kiss

#33 - CRF. Yes, yes it is.

Crikey quiet here eh.



#4 Good luck for the suggestion MTF. Should be due sometime soon



#43 Alright Phil - love the Kiss suggestion.

I'm trying to consolidate all my nom de plumbs under one name - so I'm moving from cat_sitters. Don't Panic!



One of the first jobs we have to do on the Windermere floating caravan on a Friday night is clear the swallow muck off the deck. But they are such an intrinsic part of the lake I don't mind really - now pigeon muck is another matter.



I can't do much streaming at work and I know there are two great JOE WALSH tracks for ARFO, one of them starts with a great scream. Either



IN THE CITY - from 'The Warriors' soundtrack; or

ROCKY MOUNTAIN WAY

#46 Good luck with them swallows cat_sitters!

#10 Hurrah! Autumn Gale, another fan of the ASkars!! https://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/808/askarsa.jpg/



AS has been awarded an honorary degree by Leeds University (he studied English there during the 90s) He will be attending a graduation ceremony next Wednesday, along with Look North presenter Harry Gration, to be presented with his honorary doctorate in the arts.

#40 You too, Deevs?



#41 Mo, you can never have too much. Of any variety...



#46 Shouldn't that be noms de plume? And how will we recognise you?



#48 Mmm - see what you mean Zoe. I'd say go for it -as I said on yesterday's blog, I regret not taking advantage of the opportunities I had to meet Level 42's Mark King. We'll expect photograpic evidence though ;o)



~X~

Good ARfternoon Each! No insect munching for me today (thus far, anyway) but it was suggested that I should consider a ladybird by way of pudding. I thought about it, but decided it would probably be a bit like a rather small Creme Brulee, and I tend not to do 'small'.



I am, I reckon, far to late to suggest an ARF, so seeing as I'm not likely to be considered, I shall put up two choices anyway. Y'never know!



'COUNTRY GIRL'by PRIMAL SCREAM



or



'GRACE' by SUPERGRASS



Fingets crossed for a blogger.

Oh, and I must just share, before I dash off again.



At ten past ten this morning, Luey said to me 'You're right, Paul.'



Blimey!

#51 Blimey indeed! Is that a first?



~X~

Hi Simon



Please make it third time lucky with this request. Can you play and dedicate Maybe Tomorrow by The Stereophonics to the girls who've organised the Sun Hill Junior Summer Ball in Alresford tomorrow night & to everyone who'll be attending. Despite the threat of rain, we're all in for a great evening and apart from sumptuous food and a charity auction we'll be dancing the night away to the excellent Hattie Jacques Playlist, this song is on their set.



Cheers Simon & have a great weekend



Jo Prado x

My week's work is done so I bid you all good arfternoon and goodbye. Turned out to be a busier afternoon than I had expected!



Plan to be back for 5.05!

hey poppets

My cheeky ickle ARFO request would be:

Paradise By The Dashboard Light - Meatloaf

Hi everybodypeeps!



PS passed my final ECDL exam this morning, now awaiting my sistifficate!!!

all request tune



paradise city-guns and rose's

#48 thanks Zoe - and really what's not to love?! If I were nearer then I'd be v tempted...



Hair now less grey so feeling much better about myself! I can feel an afternoon nap calling me though...

hey Tiggs xx



Yes Deevs and Deebs - moth muncher was indeed spotted in the place of scrabbling. Converting my OINK word to a BOINK word with an added ABOUT just to top up his score!



Zoe and Autumn_Gale - Had to google, not being a True Blooder. And the point of meeting this young man is ...?

:^D



Cat-sitters - you are still cat_sitters on my page - if you've changed your name [like I added the surname Thrust yesterday] sometimes it doesn't show up straight away.



Best get our mosh heads on - a lot of mighty choon choices today. Splendid!

Just realised though - I won't be here to hear it. Perhaps this would be a good opportunity to try the radio app and ear buds for my new phone ..

#58 KatyThrust (love the name! :D)



This is going to sound like the saddest thing EVER, but I just think Alexander Skarsgard is wonderful. He is an amazing actor and a generous and lovely human being. You all know how tragic my life is at times, and True Blood is one of the VERY few things that I really look forward to watching, it is something for me to look forward to each week (for the 12 weeks it's on) I have chatted to many others fans from all around the world, and the AS/Eric Northman fandom is (mostly) another happy place for me to pop in and out of when I have the time.



I am not someone who goes celeb chasing, far from it! But I would like the opportunity to meet Mr Skarsgard, and thank him in person for all the viewing pleasure, the friends I have made in fandom and for giving me something to look forward to with new series' of True Blood, and the films he will be starring in.



Like I said, it might sound a bit pathetic, but it's why any of us follow any musician, actor, other famous person, isn't it? Because we admire their work and would love the chance to be able to tell them so in person, if we could.

I wonder if Katy and Dirk are related!!!! :o))

Hi Everyone and, of course, Simon the Tipster Drivetime Dude, The Team and The NYM,



Wanted to poop by with my ARFO suggestion for today but was called away on an errand of mercy. The guy next door ran out of petrol for his works van so he called round just before 8 this morning to ask if I could take him to get some petrol which put me completely off schedule which was tight anyway.



I was going to request 500 miles by the Proclaimers as the boys and I are off for a day trip to London tomorrow and we'll probably feel like we've walked 500 miles by the time we get home again. It's the first time for the boys in the big smoke and only my second time - we're so looking forward to it.



Anyhoo, good luck choon choosers and I wish you all a wonderfully happy weekend.



Will poop by on Sunday to let you know how our day in the capital went.



Toodle-pip old beans, toodle pip.



~ xx

Oh and just wanted to say, great to see La Mobile Tooth Fairy (said in a French accent - is it possible to denote that in HTML?). Hope you were successful with the elusive hoopoes (never heard of them before - dur brain, that's me).



Cheery bye ~ xx

Hello again folks! Warm welcome back atcha all!



ARFO - Richard Thompson and Phil Picketts' Le Forze d'Hercole/Lo Ballo Dell'Intorcia from Bones of All Men



This track is Renaissance ROCK - a total monster jam, with a huge drum foundation and Thompson and Pickett furiously trading licks for 4:23!!.

Quiet this evening - where is everyone?



Well done to the muggle who got the ARFO. Ken gets to keep the crown for another week.



#55 Hi Tiggs - and very well done! I had to Google ECDL - nice one!



#57 Autumn_Gale - look at you with your hair! Takes years off you...



#59 Well said, Zoe. I hope you do get to meet your man.



#61 Hope you and the GBs have a fantastic time in London, Toots.



#63 Hi again CindyInIndy - glad you came back.

thanks Deebs

bye everyone i might come back 1 day

Bye HH - have a great holiday!

Evening All -



Mr. Carrington has just said that!



Heard the ARFO. Congrats. to the Muggle. Good Choon. Good Choice.



I am SO disappointed that Katy didn't get the ARFO. Would have loved to hear Simes read out KatyThrust!



#11/14 LuciesMum - Your photos are extraordinary. Good Tale too. Ever thought of changing your blogger name? You are you - not just LuciesMum.



#55 Tiggs - Congrats. to you. I also had to google ECDL.



#61 Toots - hope you have a good time in Londonium.



#66 Gaxxa - I hope you have a wonderful hol and look forward to hearing all about it. BTW - you had 2 this week and 4 last week which makes 6 out of 7!



Simes' last choon was OutKast. I LOVE that! Mo - I play it - it's a tricky rhythm but the chords are just G C D & E - no 7s nor minors. How are you getting on?



Off to make supper of layered pancakes - spinach & cottage cheese - garlicky tom. sauce.



Then MIRANDA! Life is good. God is good!



Where's our Revski?

thanks deebee and billie btw it was 6 in 8 lol



gazza x

Happy holiday Gazza!



Billie, not done much this week. Other things getting in the way. Will endeavour to make time at the weekend. Much practice needed ;-)



Missed the show. Was catching up with a friend I hadn't seen for a while. Was lovely tosee her but her kids are exhausting.



Miranda not on BBC Scotland but have found it on channel 989. CSI Miami first.



Nothing exciting for me at the weekend. Hope to catch up with you all at some point.



Enjoy!

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaalriiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight. Good show tonight - congrats to Muggly (?)



#55 Well done Tiggs.



#61 Weasant Pleekend Toots [snigger]



I have to put my things together ready for tomorrow - off marshalling a car park at a school circus. Yeeeee-haaaa. Meanwhile, Corrie's shaping up brilliantly tonight. Will Leanne be alright? Will she lose the baby? Will Sophie realise what a plonker she is? And, most importantly of all, will SOMEBODY DO SOME WORK!?!?! Wish I could get paid for gassing like them. The answer to all this and much, much less coming up in 15 minutes.

thanks mo

Good Morning All



Not on page 2 yet? Must try harder...



It's dull and windy here in Cambs this morning, and rain is forecast for later. I think I've overslept and woken up in Autumn.



This weekend is our last at home before our hols - next weekend we're on the boat then the following one we're going to a wedding. So I'll be filling my day with domestic tasks, writing lists and failing to get organised.



Malcolm - hope it stays dry for you. Marshalling cars for a school circus - I'm picturing you standing in the middle of the car park wearing a ringmaster's outfit and carrying a whip, with the cars in a circle around you. LOL!



Billie - Simes?? Where did that name come from? LOL again!



No doubt I'll be pooping back later. In the meantime, have a good day one and all.



~X~

Good Morning All



Very heavy - very welcome - rain overnight. Chilly, breezy & grey now.



Playing indoors methinks.



Have good ones.

Afternoon all



Windy and rainy here too - so lots of housework being done : (



Hope everyone's OK.



Tortie x

Hi All - hope everyone is having Nicetimes ...............



We had more rain this morning - really needed - this afternoon the sun is shining in a beautiful blue sky although it's breezy and chilly. Might light the stove later.



My Birthday Celebrations seem to be neverending. Someone who forgot has sent me the most beautiful bouquet today. I'm quite glad he forgot!



The Gorjus Mr. Barrowman is on tonight. We shan't watch it live cos it cuts across my playing time. Then there's the Guy Chambers Pop Song Prog. Noisettes tonight I believe. Don't know how to spell it. Don't know how to pronounce it!



Supper - Penne, Blue Cheese, Walnuts & Crusty Bread. A couple of Pancakes left over from last night - add Bananas & Ice Cream and a Choc. Sauce and you've got a pudding!







What's not to like................................... ?

I seem to have a spare space on my newspaper shelving, this morning. With what should this gap be filled, I wonder? The Sunday Times? Hmm, perhaps not. Too dissimilar to that spaces previous occupant, and perhaps tainted slightly by association. The Sunday Mirror? No, my suspicion is that people that read NOTW would have already compared those two titles, and chosen the now defunct one. Some will swap, I am sure, but does that warrant giving the Mirror an extra facing? The People? Ditto the Mirror. The Mail, The Express? Both considered, but dismissed. The Sunday Telegraph, I am sure, would be mortified were I to offer it as a substitute for what it would consider an oily rag. The spare space, and the coveted double facing, goes to THE SUNDAY POST. If only for the simple fact that it contains a free copy of The Dandy. That should placate some of those with furrowed brows, wondering what they can now spend their Sunday quid on, don't you think?



Have lovely Sundays, Each!

Good morning!



The Sunday Post! Gazza and I had a conversation about the very same not so long ago. Been a long time since I've read it. Hope it's a best seller for you PoS.



Good to see the blog is behaving itself this morning. Couldnt post yesterday:-(

Rain held off long enough for me to see The Pierces on SFTW this am. Lovely ladies, beautiful singing, great sense of humour. Sat dish stopped working before they started cooking. Let's hope Mr Sky can fix it tomorrow. Suspect I may have to follow The Apprentice on twitter tonight. Best comedy on tv at the mo IMO.



What is everyone else doing today? Is it still raining across the country? in France? But not in Australia? Isn't fb fab for keeping in touch world wide.



X

Afternoon All



Well it's certainly raining here, Mo. Heavy & Persistent.



Enforced idleness methinks. I mean it's far too wet to be ironing!

Afternoon All



Not too bad up in West Yorkshire today , only a small amount of rain.



Which is good as I have spent the last few hours being driven around a local market town by daughter 2 who is leaning to drive at the present. The things us dads have too do !!



Now in the kitchen cooking and listening to the marvellous Jarvis Cocker on 6Music.



Wharfedale Andy

These darned winds had better ease off, I wanna come home now!



MTF.xx

Hi All -



If you were here and you looked out and you ignored the Honeysuckle and the Buddleia and the Summer Bedding and the leaves on the ground you would think it was Autumn. Driving Winds. Torrential Rain. Nice to be safe indoors (thinking of those without a home).



We've done everything earlier tonight. Well, Simes is not on and the weather has misled us so we lit the wood-burner and put the lamps on at about 4.30. I played early - (Sorry Mr. O'Grady) - and now supper is made and in t'oven - Stuffed Marrow which is not at all Autumnal - it's always a special dish around my Birthday.



Didn't really enjoy Noisettes last night. Looking forward to Mr. Barrowman on iThingy.



We've had a lovely weekend. Hope you have too.



Love



BP
