What are you all up to today? - part 3

 Oh !!  And WE thought it was going to be 

" The life of a 365day Pizza delivery driver " 

             Published by  "Chris' P Doe ' nsbn No 1 4 u 2.

I am currently waiting to go home, but the rain is now so heavy the roads and pavements have turned into a river, its also very dark , think i am going to need a boat at this rate.

What to do today?  I can see area's of blue skies and white clouds, some grey ones too but nothing like the heavy skies of the last few days. Forecast is for thunder storms, they didn't happen yesterday so hoping they won't today. Think we will try another cycle ride if possible.

Thanks Bakers2 for the good wishes, from what we see on the news uk have not been having it great either.

We will be looking for a site for a couple of nights between visiting our sons. Somewhere between Tidworth and Penistone, thinking of Rutland water, all suggestions well

i can recommend Top Lodge aka Stamford, one of our favourites, but no toilet block, Graffam Water is good too. We also used a good CL not far from Graffham Water that had a shower and toilet.

Shame part 2 was only 34 posts short of the Sunday departures thread which i believe was the thread with highest number of posts.

The trouble was that about 10% of those posts were for blank pages and and another 20% were MMs attempt to get to gold, so in reality proper posts would not match those on the Sunday Departure issue.

Write your comments here...

And he is already upto 22% of the thread posts on here and still hasn't posted anything interesting, as i dont know about others but the adventures of a pizza delivery driver is not my choice of reading especially when it keeps disrupting the thread!

You are right jeffCC. I did my own little survey (just in case I'd been totally out on my previous comments on the closed thread.) In 22hrs by page 11 on this thread there were 107 posts, the major poster was MM. Many of his comments were to posters who'd previously said they would not be responding to him. This indicates someone who is not engaging with anyone and has no intention of abiding by the rules on here.

I apologise to all the other posters on here, I don't want to disrupt your efforts and enjoyment in any way. It's nice to read your posts.

Today was supposed to be the best of the next few days (only occasional downpours) so we headed SW to Schengen on the Moselle then N along the river and into Germany near Trier.

Only a couple of heavy showers, quite a few sunny spells.

Coming back we drove S in Germany along the Saar river, stopped to buy some German wine to bring home and some other shopping, before crossing the Moselle again at Schengen.

The camp site, which was pretty empty when we went out, has filled up again and we are now squashed in between a German MH and a Dutch caravan. There was barely room to park our car!

The site has plastic grids in the grass to give a firmer base, and on the pitches in the area we were allocated, we have to park parallel to the road with the car at right angles to the road at one end of the pitch, there are hedges between the pitches. The warden instructed us to park like this.

As we have a long van, we have to have the hitch about 30cm over the "dividing line" so we can just get the car behind the van and still open the doors on one side.  However our Dutch neighbour has put his van so far back towards us that his 2 bikes are overhanging the hedge.  Quite how he thinks he will get to them now we are parked right up to the other side of the hedge is a mystery!

He only has a small van, so has more than enough space in front of his hitch for parking his car, clearly he has not thought this through.

However, the weather has deteriorated again, so much heavy rain it is now cascading off the Fiamma, so I doubt he will be wanting the bikes tonight.  Dinner will have to be eaten inside today.

Anyhow 15hrs to go to the off, its like a military operation

( except the co-ordination or planning!!

Joking aside looking forward to Going to Yellowcraig again i can see me and the dog now having an early morning swim

No need to apologise, Brue. The whole issue is best ignored from now on and it's good to see so many people have found the will to use their inbuilt ignore button. It's quite simple to activate.

Got to look forward to putting the garden straight when we get back just bit the bullet and taken down 9 overgrown conifers, did'nt realise how much room they had taken over. its now light in the house again
