Posted on 06/02/2017 13:34 by KjellNNNot long back from dentist, OH had to have a tooth out. It was a big back one, so the hole is huge.
Off now to take caravan to dealer for service etc, nice day here so should be a pleasant journey, traffic permitting.

Sitting at the keyboard, too much to do and
undecided where to start !!
Did a little food shop this morning and got in
to find that nice young **** **** **** postperson
had left a little pile on the door mat for me !
The D V L A took my Vehicle Tax ok so that
means my insurance & M O T have also been
plundering my bank balance but the Scotpower
folks cannot agree with themselves what my bill
should be nor which card they want to use.
as a result I'm agoin' to spend the evening on
the updates to my 2017 Steam Rally Lists 
Ah, Decisions, Decisions Decisions !!( But think
of the muddy fun to come 
!! )

We woke up this morning to the most fantastic view of the valley behind the cottage shrouded in mist with Latterbarrow and Claiffe Heights clear behind. And within minutes of the sun appearing over the hill top the mist had completely vanished. We drove round to Elterwater and walked along to Skelwith Bridge and round Loughrigg Tarn - very cold but clear and bright. A lovely day out!

Temporary filling now out as is the rest of the old amalgam one, nice new white resin filling in, mouth still a bit numb but going off so tea will be a bit late tonight.
Sounds good WN, hope no one comes and pitches right next to you and spoils your peace.
Moulsey, have a nice time, sound lovely.
Kj, hope the OH soon recovers from the extraction.

Sounds as if you ae having a good time Moulsey. Enjoy.
Today I went to the hospital for a hip x-ray. Got there and they said 2-3 waiting time. In the end I decided not to bother - went from the hospital to Market Bosworth to a pub for lunch. The x-ray can wait for another day.

Posted on 05/02/2017 21:17 by Bakers2Just settling down for a bit of TV and CT catch up having arrived back from son's. Very nice weekend. Lovely delicious roast lunch at the red lion in Warmington, not on sea 😂😂. Thank you for the birthday greetings 😃. Really foggy morning in Peterborough which was a surprise nice dog walk round the muddy fields very slippery under foot managed not to measure my length 😉.
KjellNN sounds lime a busy time for you but satisfying get once the jobs are done have to agree on the DIY skills hubby does our plumbing and minor electrics. Can't imagine the bills if he didn't 😮.
Moulesy have a great week.
Goldie you may work ha4d but I'm pleased to know you make the most of your non working hours.
Tricky I'm impressed washed concorde in 1.5 hours it's huge!
Milliehull I hope you had a lovely birthday.
Sorry if I missed anyone 😔. Sadly the weekend is over so I wish everyone a happy week regardless of whether their work is paid or pleasure.

Posted on 06/02/2017 15:35 by WherenextNice dry morning with a bit of frost. Feel like Billy No Mates as we're the lone caravan on the CL. Still, nobody going to upset us so thats a positive.
Went for a long stroll around various bits of Marbury Country Park and watched a barge being lifted up via the Anderton Boatlift, a pice of engineering marvel.
Had lunch in Frodsham, a bit of shopping, then back to the van to do the jobs. 5 minutes after closing the door and making the coffee the heavens opened. Due to pass through tonight so hoping to get out again tomorrow, maybe to Alderley Edge.
Enjoy your break Moulesy. Be gentle with the old man that is Nellie!

Thanks for that!! I'm not that old really, but am a bit like a creaking gate at the moment following my cold.
Which site are you staying on? We walked over to the boat lift, through the CP, last month from Northwich. Hope that the weather stays fine for the rest of your stay.

Well, that was our first tow with the new car, seems excellent. Nice run over to dealer, not so nice coming back as it was raining by then, and there was heavy traffic as we were much later than intended.
Van safely delivered then we had to have a long chat with the dealer, and a look at the new caravans.
However the bank balance is intact as we did not see anything we liked better than our current van!
Van should be ready for collection on Friday if all goes according to plan.
OH is recovering slowly, she has had some soup for dinner, and some yogurt, and we will have a cup of tea soon. Her face is still sore, but not too bad.

Glad to hear your first tow went well Kj, its always an anxious time the first tow. The weather here has gone severely down hill from daylight hours, now pouring with rain but forecast for fine tomorrow, at least we won't get frost tonight, fingers crossed or it will be like a skating rink.
Good that OH managed to eat something and not too much pain. Mines all ok now, managed a nice stir fry with noodles and some lovely salmon steaks Mmmmmm!
