Anyone Else Up Yet ......... Vol. 2

Sling your hook... took long enough but a nice start to the day!

what an excellent emoticon bags

And what a brilliant way for that Tweeter to show that Hamza really knows whish side his bread is buttered on and respects our country's stance on justice and human rights. We don't always get it absolutely right but we certainly try to. He knows that and honours it in his soul.

re jeni's post - there are some funny twitter comments on that bit of news e.g. "Tried to avoid being extradited due to sleep deprivation - well, he can sleep on the plane on the way to Washington." and "Never has one man fought so hard for so long to stay in a country he despises. Good riddance".

Might decide to stay and relive my uni days!

Have a fantastic time, everyone. Come back and tell us everything, won't you?

You wouldn't dare! Maniac will be round at your house rousting you!

Thanks bags
I'm up, showered, dressed, bejewelled, coiffured. Now I'm exhausted. Think ill go back to bed and give it a miss!

Have fun in Brum, you lot!

Midlands meet up Ariadne. Some people are coming up from the Bristol direction etc. and E Midlands, to Birmingham. I'm lucky as an easy hour on the train, all being well.
Nothing like a comfy bed is there. I find that is the down-side of travelling - those rock hard mattresses that repel your body.

DH off early to golf (in the rain, = crazy) usually I can snuggle but this morning wide awake. So, piece of toast, check in here, do a spot of online shopping (something I've had my eye on) and then on the couch to watch 'My Week With Marilyn'. Bliss.

Morning all!

OGM have lost track of things - what is happening today? Your tells me it's something happy, so best wishes for a lovely day!

I have found, and been to, a good hairdresser down here, so am feeling positively human today. Our new bed arrived yesterday and oh, the bliss - of sleeping in it, before you lot start getting ideas.

Meeting DD for coffee later today, another nice thing...

I'm up, alarm went off at 6 a.m. Now to get ready for the BIG day

Horrible man.

Good riddance!

HIP HIP HIP HOORAY! What a waste of space and tax payers money that man is...

JUST HEARD ON THE NEWS. THAT CLERIC CAN BE EXTRADITED AT ONCE!

HOORAY!

Great news soop

GA how are the arrangements for your son's wedding coming on? Have you sorted an outfit? Hope all is going well.

Nana...sure is. One wee challenge overcome.

That's good news soop

Good morning to you all. I'm doing "catch up" with the latest happenings.
For the record, we called at SEPA's office on our return journey from the Edinburgh gathering. Although we had no appointment, the staff were very helpful, and we were able to chat at length with a very nice young man [who gave us plenty of useful info'.] It appears that drainage on the orchard plot will not be as problematical as feared.

This morning I've already been up and about for quite some time and have so much to do I need an elastic day! No time to catch up on what's been happening on GN so I'm convinced I'm missing all sorts of interesting posts.

In the last month I've visited Cornwall, York, Kent, Essex, Lesvos and Edinburgh. (No more trips planned until after son's wedding in November thankfully.) Now it's down to earth with a bump - I'm teaching in less than thirty minutes, have the in-laws coming for tea (lovely) then off to the theatre to see a show. (MIL is the Musical Director.)

Been up at 1.00 am, 2.00am, 3.00am will youngest granddaughter. What else can you do with a 16 month old who just wants to play.

BBC breakfast TV. Mum and small daughter being interviewed about dental hygiene. While Mum was having earnest discussion with presenters and the Head of Dental Services, kid was enjoying herself pulling faces at the camera. Priceless!
