They've been grounded for fighting in the yard.
Naughty chickens.

Good morning from the slightly wintery county of Sussex

We're enjoying coffee having worked out to use a Nespresso machine - never used one before - and then heading for breakfast.

We did have plans to go walking, but it depends what the weather does. And we need to be back home for Wales v England rugby this afternoon.

I hope you have a good day being bossman today John

Good morning, Linda.
Hope the weather holds.
Yes, i'll be rugby watching, too.
Hangover ?

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

In the absence of an late scoring from our American contingent I can announce the pet section of yesterdays challenge ended in a three way tie between Jacques, Tidgy and John's degu males.
But I will award the prize to Jacques because of the beautiful photographs.
Prize for Jacques.

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

And the Human prize goes to Linda, for the cost of it more than anything but also for the Bolly.
Linda's prize :

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

Right Charity today, people.
Not sure what I'm going to do with this.

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

My student is not coming.
He's going on holiday to Turkey today.
So I'm free for three hours before the next one's due.

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

Oh, I just noticed.
It's my Forumversary.
I joined the forum two years ago today.
Though i'd been using it for over three years before that.

With you in charge, I never though there would be.

 

[JoesMum]

Good morning, Linda.
Hope the weather holds.

Hangover ?

No hangover whatsoever - the secret with matched wines is not to empty the glass and to drink lots of water

It's a lovely wintry morning here. A charming Scouser* called Brian cleared our car of snow while we walked the grounds; we tipped approximately, but he deserves some charity points even if his job is hotel porter and he's expected to do stuff like that.

Well done John. I hope you're being suitably charitable to your colleagues

Well done John. I hope you're being suitably charitable to your colleagues

It looks absolutely stunning, but far too cold for me.
Lovely to look at, thanks for posting.
Point to Brian.

This is very beautiful. Thank you, Linda, for charitably sharing with us this beauty.

Hmmm.
Point to Linda.

Hmmm.
Point to Linda.

It's a point I shall lose when watching the rugby if Wales don't win

We're home now. The gas fire is on for weather-connected psychological reasons; the central heating should be enough, but the snow outside makes it seem colder than it is.

I'm a little concerned about daughter. She's on another mammal surveying course in North Kent with a somewhat notorious road over the hills of the North Downs to get home. The snow is persisting. She needs to keep an eye on conditions.

I have just very charitably completed a post purchase survey for my car. Ford UK sends out a very Americanised survey. Rating things like "I love my dealership" on a scale of 1 to 5 just don't fit with the British psyche. We're just more reserved! However, the dealer did a good job, so I gave them a 5 even if every bone in my body screams I couldn't love a car dealership!

Good morning!! Busy 12 hour day ahead with one of my very least favorite doctors but I'm off again tomorrow so it's not so bad hopefully I'll manage to get out right around 9 pm tonight and not much later. I hope everyone has a lovely day and I'll check in on my lunch break

Hi. Don't forget to be charitable today.

 

[Kristoff]

My brain claims it's Sloth day today. Whenever I try to argue, it tells me it's time to nap.

I would prefer Wales to win but don't mind too much if England do.
Nice and warm here today.
I'm sure your daughter will be fine, though the mammals are probably sulking cos it's cold.
They do those surveys everywhere now. I hate them, too.
