Our village is flooded in the same areas as last week.

I'm assuming from your statement that it was vaguely dried out in between and re-flooded? Are you affected?

Was idly watching "Britain in Colour" on a satellite channel today when I spotted my mum (rest her soul) partying at the gates of Buckingham Palace on VE Day in her Wren's uniform. She always said she could be seen on that footage, but I'd never seen a shot that showed her clearly enough. A nice surprise, and I've got that bit recorded now to show my nephew.

It's when it floods somewhere different I'd get worried.

I have spotted the first fully decorated & lit Chrismas tree of the year (excluding shops/pubs, etc)

Today I had to visit 2 places within few miles distance from home. It is rain - no rain - rain - no rain today.

1st place - went by car. Didn't get soaked. Stuck in traffic jam.

2nd place - cycled. Didn't stuck in traffic jam. Got completely soaked.

A classic application of the Law of Sod...

A nice and three cheese snack-a-jacks.

I have put the rest of the packet away, because just like the marmite rice cakes, I'd scud through the whole lot in one sitting if given the chance.

I think everyone has, at one time or another. It's one of those, you see...

You sure it's not one of them?

Cheaper than crashing an R/C plane though.

Numerous, numerous times.

I've been idly wondering what extravagant pledges electioneering politicians are going to amuse us with next. They are getting positively creative.

Numerous, numerous times.

Not that bad a crash then.

I'll wait while later today before saying Happy Birthday, nowt worse than a premature congratulation.

Not to my knowledge...
