That sounds more Liverpudlian. I went to university in the county town, Lancaster, and it was more of a variant on the Yorkshire accent up there. It’s quite distinctively different in the Blackburn area too... Lancashire has many accents now I think of it!
Well I've just found my intruder!!
It's my mobile phone!!
No wonder the sound was moving around it was in my pocket!!
I've only had this phone for a couple for months - it's a cheap spare I bought when the touch screen on my other went berserk.
I haven't heard it before but it has a weird battery low signal that does sound exactly like a donkey with a sore throat!
So mystery solved! I can rest easy in my bed tonight!

Actually we have an external canister filter - a Fluval 306 (? possibly... I can’t be bothered to go check... definitely 300 series) You can see the pipes on the right where the water is circulated in and out.
The internal thing is a UV filter. It help to keep the algae down. And the flow through it helps to keep the water moving and better oxygenated.
The tank was suppled with a 200 series filter, but that was nowhere near powerful enough. The 300 is better.
Take care Lyn and don’t overdo it by trying to do too much too soon!
No idea what those are... apart from the sparrows I can hear chirping in the background
Ah, the pigeons would explain the main noise. The chirping noise is definitely sparrows.
This os so true!
Yay! Well done you! And well done Merlin! Lots of long soaks now so he can rehydrate
I use heat... it encourages blood flow into the muscle.
And stay off the caffeine! It makes it worse!

Good mornooning all!
It’s Mother’s Day here in the UK.
The clocks went forwards last night so we are back to our regular time difference with the other side of the Atlantic.
Daughter came home yesterday ... not that we saw her because we went to London and she was in bed on our return. Son is due home this morning and they’re cooking lunch for us apparently
Daughter must have been baking because she was using my Kenwood Chef food mixer... which broke down on her. It is a very well used thirty years old... and, while I am gutted it has broken, I have had good value for money from it. I will investigate getting it repaired. I suspect it is the motor that has failed and initial investigations suggest that a new motor is about £15 on eBay... if a motor can be found for a 30 year old machine!
In London yesterday, we went to see a Van Gogh exhibition and a Henry Moore sculpture exhibition and finished with a show (Fiddler on the Roof). No postcards because my phone battery died and I forgot my backup battery.
Happy Sunday all of you. And Happy Mother’s Day to the Mums, Moms and Mothers. It’s good being in the CDR, we get to celebrate twice. Just like Christmas when we get to celebrate both the regular festival and the Orthodox one [emoji177]

Happy Mother’s Day to you Linda! I can’t wait to read what daughter has baked up . Sorry about the loss of your machine...I know it’s hard to beat your favorite of anything. Good luck with the repair.
So if I’m ever wanting to see good theater or art exhibits, London is where I need to go.... Noted!
Happy Sunday and Happy Mother’s Day..
Sun’s up and shining brightly on our back woods...

I'm curious to know, what do the non - uk people on this chat think about Brexit?

We aren’t allowed to discuss politics on TFO, so opinions should not be asked
Yeah, my body has been caffeine free for many years, that's why yesterday's intake affected me so strongly. I was still feeling its effects last night. Very uncomfortable. No more caffeine for me!!!
So THAT explains it! Someone wished a happy mother's day on the tarantula forum and I was much confused. It's not mother's day here until May.Good mornooning all!
