Morning All; Gotcha! Pinch, Punch, First Day of the Month and no Returns, grin
Seriously though! I was told off some time ago as a "Newbie" and before I knew the rules of posting, not to "cheat" by taking advantage of our time difference.
But today , as I was going out, I thought what the heck, posted, only to find 27 posts already in; from 00.02 to 02.42.GMT. They can't all be in different time zones, surely? confusedOr are these carried out on iPads under the Doona seeing as how it's Winter and "Baby! it's cold outside" grin
FWIW; we're nearly at the end of a glorious first day of our summer 30C; and No! I'm not "schadenfreuding!" wink

Morning Rufus

I'm slightly confused by your post, I know I'm dumb ? It is now 07.26 GMT.
We do indeed have some regular early birds. Mick invariably starts the thread between 06.20 and 06.45.
and yes, it's surprising how many people are up at that time.
It's been said a lot that you need less sleep as you get older, seems it may be true.

Ninathenana; Don't you worry! I'd be even dumber at that time of the morning in Winter, still fast asleep under the doona!
We're now 11 hours ahead of you so while you're pounding away at your keyboard at midnight we are sitting outside in the sun enjoying our next day elevenses. grin That's how we are able to beat Mick by 6 hours, but the stewards called foul and now we can't post to this thread before our tea-time. sad Which reminds me it's 7.15pm and time to get tea out of the freezer. Grilled perch or crumbed whiting? Decisions, decisions!
Hope that's clarified things Nina! Have a good day! smile

Quite cool here in NE England, only 5 degrees this morning. The young people will be out partying in Newcastle tonight without coats as we make them tough up here.

Enjoy your fish ? Christmas market in town for us today
Squiffy; I'm only a mere male, but I'm still allowed to change my mind; so instead of fish I went for chicken and mushroom tortellini! Lovely! Tonight it's vegie cannelloni! You can't beat these frozen supermarket dishes. Great menus and great taste! Yet some nervous ladies stand for hours reading the packet! sad
Just stick it in the microwave and enjoy, I say.
Your Christmas market must look a treat all lit up. I'll have a box of mince pies (containing a drop of rum,) for Santa, of course! next time you're there. tchgrin
wine wine wine

Only just seen your last post Rufus!

The market was sadly underwhelming! Not a mince pie in sight ? I’ll blame the torrential rain and not apathy!

Hope you enjoyed your cannelloni. Some of us anxious ladies have to study the packets because of family food allergies/intolerances. For others, of course, it may be their preferred choice of reading matter! ???
