Good Morning Everyone,
Its dark, but dry here in brackley this morning.
Today, household chores come to the fore this morning , with a general tidy up ready for a spring clean .
I will have a go with Wordle later as well.
Take Care,
Mick

A late good morning to Mick and all from a drizzly Anglesey.
It is lovely when your name is mentioned Gingster so there it is.
I agree Urms, some wonderful place names in the U.K. Here in Wales I think the bag of scrabble letters was tipped out on the map and places were named as the letters landed such as Dwygyfylchi. Not a one horse town but certainly a one vowel town.
I’d love to be a fly on the wall EV when you’re insulting those engineers, they’ll be renamed as burnineers by the time you’ve finished.
Happy birthday to little ones and big ones with birthdays today.
Lots of lovely jaunts going on to be enjoyed by all.
Special wishes to those not so happy at the moment. Time passes and things get better or we learn to cope so that it seems better.
AGA flowers
Keep your eyes open for your random pink flamingo everyone????????

I can remember many moons ago when my sister and I were in the car and dad (a welshman) had stopped to get petrol in North Wales. He decided to buy a pennant for the car, too (popular in those days) he came back chuffed to bits, the man in the shop had given him a discount on the pennant because he could pronounce the name -Dwygyfylchi!

Hooray ! I've got my heating on. When the chap came to check the boiler after uncapping, he'd remarked on how cold the place was, so left the heating on.
Apparently----it had been an error, as a chap who was unfamiliar with the area had done it.
Some mother's do 'ave 'em !

Good morning all from sunny W Kent. For some reason I decided it would be a good idea to sort out the top of the chest of drawers I use as a dressing table, now I have to deal with it all and sort out what costume jewellery I'm never going to wear again. Good wishes to all enjoy the hen Marydoll. Love the welsh name Gwenisgreat not too far away we have Meopham and Wrotham and strangers to the area struggle to get the pronunciation right.

Meant to say that’s a fabulous photo Brook.

Round us, we have Paramour Street (a settlement, not just street) and further east, Hearts Delight!
