That's a shame. :rolleyes: I think I'd rather be in bed, but being paid to do nothing is just fine :D
Speaking of being payed to do nothing......
I'm stuck in the office again today while a big stack of repair orders go untouched.

Good morning, John!
Great choice of a video, LOL.
My beauty routine included only combing my hair this morning. It was too dark for anything else: We get blackouts in my village whenever it rains. o_O
Good afternoon, Lena! :)
We get blackouts here too.
But I think it's the whisky.

Good morning John.

I've been liberal with the aqueous cream this morning. The cold weather always disagrees with my skin and it becomes dry and itchy. It's got worse as I've got older.

We had a hard frost across the country last night -3C/26F here and -7C/19F in Oxfordshire apparently. Tonight they're predicting -9C/17F in parts of the country. This is very cold by UK standards.
Good afternoon, Linda! :)
That is horrible, especially for November. :(
Stay warm!

Morning, Linda!

That's quite cold by any standards. Of course unless I compare it to where some of my Russian relatives live. There, -16C means you may now remove your gloves and your scarf. :D
Lena, you have not added your address to the Christmas card exchange ?
Just ignore this if it's not just an oversight. :)

Good morning Lena.

We had that a couple of years ago. Every time it rained heavily we'd lose the electricity. :( It went on for most of one winter. We and our neighbours had long arguments with the electricity people, but they wouldn't concede there was a problem.

It took about 4 months before they did anything. I suspect the problem goes even deeper where you are :(
We get it occasionally, the rain shorts something out or the street lights blow.
But it the cuts are usually only a few minutes and the street lights quickly repaired.

Power outages are not very uncommon here either. Especially during a storm.
For some reason, many cities planted trees that grow extremely large directly under powerlines and poles decades ago and now most of the wires run through tree branches.
Genius!

Good morning.
I ended up getting all four tortoises from that fellow south Florida member.
Three Redfoot sub adults and a very light weight year old Cherry head that is going to be too small for me to keep with the others.
Good morning, Ed!:)
So two herds to begin, you old lot and the three new ones, plus a separate enclosure for the Cherry.
Will you try to combine the groups after quarantine ?
