The cold dark room is even colder when not many people are in it. Haha.
COLD DARK ROOM
- Thread starter Tidgy's Dad
- Start date
What about Christmas?!
The weather is pretty good here too. It's just clouded over, but it is still very warm. (Overseas CDR members should note that British public holidays normally guarantee bad weather, so good weather will always be amazing!
)For us, we've done a load of gardening and will have a barbecue.
See, I told you "having a right day" was a Yorkshire phraseAdam I read your posts. Sounds like you had a right day yesterday & I hope you're okay & today is a better day for you. Fingers crossed & look after yourself.
Slept like a log, ta.Hope you sleep well Adam. It sounds like you had a 'right day of it' as is said in the county I think of as home... Yorkshire.
(I was actually born in Kent, but moved away aged 4 and only returned here by coincidence; I have no family here... or in Yorkshire for that matter)
Big electronic hug, avoiding sore bits, for the bus incident too. That sounds awful
I'm a bit achey and bruised this morning, but it's mainly my pride that is wounded I feel.
Nothing to worry about, I just get down sometimes and it takes something good happening to jolt me out of it.
Been sulking this morning in my lab, then come back to the apartment to find thirsty wifey has drunk two and a half litres of pop, leaving only a half litre for me. So it's out again in a minute.
It's nothing, really, I have a great life and shouldn't complain about such trivia.
My dad was from Cumbria and supported Leeds United, so I did too (and still do, sadly). Spent many a Saturday in Leeds for many years, on and off, also a lot of time at Leeds uni, visiting friends. I quite like Yorkshire and love York itself. (not too keen on Sheffield or Bradford).

Good afternoon, Linda.Good morning all. I have woken to an iMessage from Mum saying she's had a good night and is feeling much better which is undoubtedly true if she can be bothered to get her iPad out.
Quiet day today, hopefully.
Hope you can enjoy a nice peaceful day and recharge your batteries for the next bump in the road.
Glad your mum's on the mend.
Long may it continue.
Good afternoon Adam, Wifey and Tidgy.Good afternoon, Linda.

I totally forgot to include Christmas as a bank holiday!! Oops! Having a BBQ sounds a plan, enjoy! Haha, yeah a Yorkshire phrase comes out every now & then.
Good afternoon, mamma, call me Adam.
They do queue in supermarkets and the post offices and utilities places have a number system so it's not like this everywhere.
The local shops know that if they allow someone to push in in front of me, I shop elsewhere, so it's pretty much fine except for the buses or a shopkeeper that doesn't know me.
I'm a Somerset lad myself and spent lots of my youth in Cornwall, love it there. But I was rubbish at rugby, too skinny.
wifey's always showing me You Tube videos. 'sigh'.

Good morning & have a great day!
Good morning, Ed.Good morning.
Adam, everyone here it seems is equipped with a handgun.
This is a civilized country, as you know.
I know you don't use a cane, but one could be used as a good defensive weapon.
I have used a cane, when I was recovering from TB and did use it to bosh people on a couple of occasions.
Limping a bit this morning, so i might fish it out of the wardrobe.
The police have handguns here, but nobody else. Gun crime is almost non-existent, though knives are often used, as in parts of the UK. Only one in ten of the coppers have bullets in their guns, and at the end of each shift, every one has to be accounted for, if one is missing the policeman can end up out of work and in jail! I've never known of a policeman firing a shot in my city.
Thanks your prompt reply, Ed. Hope he was not hurt/injured.
One suspects that the parrots have persuaded the torts not to eat the stuff.
They are capable of speech, you know.
Good afternoon. Hope you are well.
Most Yorkshire folk are a bit doubtful about somewhere as far south as Sheffield too. It's in the Midlands reallySlept like a log, ta.

Bet it's about as Scottish as the British pub in Agadir. (which has nothing British in it bar a couple of St George flags. The beers not British, the decor, the music or tv programs and none of the staff speak more than basic English.
