Evening all
We had a bit more of the white stuff overnight but with the slight rise in temperature it soon disappeared and now we have just the compacted bits on the pavements. Still no sight of the bin men mind you. |

Evening All
----------------------------------------![]() The higher temperatures and slight drizzle made the side roads even worse water on packed snow and ice. its just about to drop to 32 now so that will make things interesting >>>>>>>>>>> The BBC gave us the Home service , Light Programme & and the Third Programme . Radio Luxembourg and Hilversom also available through the crackles and fading . I wonder what ever happened to Horace Batchelor and the Infar draw system Did he actually win the pools and leave Keynsham (near Bristol) behind him ???? >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> The Bin men due again tomorrow. Question is, will they pick up the Bins left out since last week or stick to the schedule and only collect the Green bins and plastics box. thats if they turn up at all . |

Morning all
----------------------------------------![]() No frost to speak of but icy patches remain its about 35f at moment with a slight breeze . Those windmills that I can see on the hills have not turned very much to top up the electric, as its been so still. >>>>>>>>>>>>> Hoffhaus I had heard of but not Danhaus ? One of my favourite programmes Grand designs have featured one in the past. Fantastic construction, every last detail made in clinical factory conditions. Then assembled on site by beautiful leederhosen clad tutonic guys ![]() (Note to Merle not to get excited You have to purchase the house for this service ) >>>>>>>>>>>> The nearest I came to any thing like this was an all wood ceder clad COLT house when I helped a mate with a self build the product was made in kent . All we had to do was lay in services and build a base looked great and wood being great insulator was warm ---------------------------------------- [Edit 2 times, last edit by densnaps at Jan 12, 2010 6:57:39 AM] |

Hello everyone, I trust you are all well.
Visited the Doc today for another rap on the knuckles, apparently I am supposed to stay indoors, "But how could I do that" said, I," I had an appointment to see you". "Ring" she said " I will come to You". - There aint many like her in the world! Dogs getting fed up with my inability to take him out, if looks could kill I'd be dead by now!, but he still gets up on my lap, and gives me a cuddle, so I cant be all bad! Kate sends her regards again and hope you all have a good 2010, |

... and then if you wanted to listen to anything more 'with it' than Billy Cotton you fiddled around to pick up AFN as a teenager. Danhaus was just the name of the company, from Denmark obviously and very busy in North Germany but the idea much like the TV programme you saw. In fact the owners of that were friends of my wife's daughter so we were particularly interested. The problem often in England was to get planning permission in the past. When I lived in Berkshire timber houses were, more or less, verboten despite the fact that the Scandinavians and Canadians had been using them for years. Hope the thaw coniinues for you Ted and not only for the dog's sake. |

Morning all, and thanks for the good wishes.
Feel sorry for the peolpe in Haiti, makes our weather sound so much less of a problem. Should have listened to my dad, he always said there were many that were worse off than us! |

that's wayyy over 1/3 of my wheels, the bad part is that cycling on frozen underground is one thing (a skill I might even master one day) but when there is over 5cm of fresh snow I just get stuck
![]() and it's snowing again (just when things were manageable again) I never get tired of the beautiful sights though... ![]() |
