It's drizzling ☔

Looks like the westbound slip road at J17 is closed due to an accident..

Thanks . Just trying to figure out how the traffic will be avoiding that section of M4 . They will most likely be using the route I wanted to take this morning. Basset , Sutton Benger .

The leaves are dropping of my Poinsettia and Mr pigeon is attempting to make baby pigeons with Miss/Mrs/Ms pigeon on the fence in the drizzle. She, by the looks of it, is either disinterested or playing hard to get.. It's not easy to tell, sometimes.

There is a very tense atmosphere in my house this morning !
While l was outside for a few minutes one of my hounds ( l am sure l know which one ) went into the kitchen and stole my lunch which was wrapped in foil and on a plate ready to be heated in the oven. Now l have no lunch and no plate ,it was smashed to bits during the robbery.
Hound is now very subdued having received a loud and pis..d off chastisement from yours truly

At least it wasn't something requiring a trip to the emergency vet, a £300 bill & a 42 mile round trip, as when a certain puppy stole a slice of rich fruit cake.

A showery day I think in store as while not currently raining I can see a shower creeping up the Sound. Not much wind and unless there are covid cancellations it would be a good day for travelling. Not much cop for a tourist right enough but for normal people it would be ok.
While many look down on FB it does have interesting bits. There is an interesting recent history discussion going on which involves Granny Spencer who ran a launch service across from Oban and brought the Sunday papers and some passengers when we were a proper island community rather than the Incomers Theme Park.
Today's excitement will be to go and fill my car fuel tank up.

I think vets are taking the peace these days with their charges .
It's a wonder that the insurance companies haven't clamped down on them . They did with car bodywork !

I was just wondering how people join secret societies ? Do they place adverts in super markets on notice boards with contact details ?

I wouldn't join any society that would have me as a member, secret or otherwise

Blue skies are here again.

Must go for a walk before the rain comes back!

Or I could post you a letter with the instructions and the letter will self - destruct after you've read it.
