What are you all up to

A miserable, wet day here in North Warwickshire.  Off to visit Carol's mum this afternoon.  Glad it was dry yesterday when we went out in the afternoon and ended up at Barr Beacon.

Triky

I had a lovely walk last Sunday around Faversham Creek (where the listed boats are moored)

Spent ages in the Tool shed building looking at tools and equipment my father and grandfather would have used.

Read about the restored Thames Sailing barge used in WW2 and caught up in an IRA bombing.

Not sure the wife was as interested as me though.

Had to google 'Merguez' Triky, mouth watering indeed especially with hot roasties . Have a good day

Back to heating.

We don't have central heating, so nothing at all upstairs. We do put portable electric heaters in the bedrooms for visitors.

Downstairs in the kitchen/living room (very big room) we have an old solid fuel Aga, so there is always some heat. We also have a large wood burner there. We control the room temperature by opening or closing doors - the door to the hall (heats more of the house), the door to the pantry (another very big room) lets in an icy blast, or the outside door in summer.

Another wood burner heats the sitting room (only used when we have visitors.

I'm very good at dressing in removable layers.

 Fozzie ,Oh ,if you'ed ventured round to " Oare Creek" ,i was there all day (as MANY DAYS ) .FREE park up on my B/Yd for members ANYTIME !! Just give me a shout on the mobile ,and I'll talk you in !!

                       Dave FL2 ,   Mmmm!!

Lovely room Goldie, reminds me of my grandparents' kitchen. Always cosy.

Blue sky did not last long, now more clouds and only feeble sunshine.  Fortunately OH did not rush to put on the W/M as she reckoned there was not enough for a full load.

Busy now sorting out all the stuff from the old car and deciding what we need in the new one.  Far too much clutter......almost as bad as the caravan!

Damp,  mizzley  day  --  all  grey  &  horrible  so  sitting  on  P.C. 

between  loads  of  "Washing  &  Drying"  must  get  it  out  of  the

way  'cos  to-morrow  the 'van  is  in  for  service  &  M O T

Always  a  bad  time  peering  thro'  the  window  &  seeing  a  big 

open  space  !  Still  should  be  ok  for  Aged  Sister  to  get  into  for 

her  shopping  trip  tho'  !!

Must  come  on  here  a  little  more  than  I  am  doing,  'cos  I 

turned  the  Squwark  Box  on  and  got  a  burst  of  "Oh  Come  All

Ye  Faithful"   { D S B  would  have  been  proud  of me    !!  } 

So  I've  swapped  C.D.s  for  some  of  The  Sheringham  ShantyMen 

to  remind  me  of  the  weather  over  on  the  East  Coast  !!

Keep  Warm  &  Dry  you  lot    !!
