I laugh uproariously when I learn that other parts of Britain are having bad weather. How amazing that people don't realise just what a fortuitous geographical enclave we enjoy in East Lancashire! It's been shown time and time again that we have the kind of weather enjoyed by the Costa Brave region of Spain. As I sit here sipping Pina Coladas in my garden, factor 30 SPF liberally coating my tanned skin, I spare a thought for you poor people who don't have the great good fortune I have to live here in the sunniest part of Northern Europe.

Agreed, got a couple of mates that are posties, and respect the fact my mail gets to me, through all weathers.
Also about the masters and the desire for profits e.g. price hikes.......lack of respect

You'll have to tell us what the secret ingredient in your Pina Coladas is, from the sound of your post it must be good s**t.

Went to my parents to do their watering whilst they are away (no, really - lots of stuff in the greenhouse and conservatory). Wind has blown through two panes of glass in the green house, pulled a door of its hinges on the summerhouse and a fence has blown over.

Still, the waterbutts are nice and full.

Bet your folks are gonna be well chuffed at how well you've looked after their place

Better than when I was a kid. They went on holiday once, leaving me at home (must have been about 15 at the time - never be "allowed" nowadays). They came home to blood smeared all over the kitchen floor, soaked into the carpets, and a pool of the stuff behind the sofa. I think I managed to break the lock on the front door at the same time.

I think the only reason they trust me is that I live the closest.

Dog had an inflamed prostate and was bleeding from his penis. I only found him when I got home from school - got him to the vets somehow, which of course was full of film crew for one of those Countryside Vets-style TV shows.

Sunny in Lancashire again today. Supposed to be working but might just have to nick off for a bike ride in a bit...

Blimey what did you do, murder somebody?

No, as is in the smaller text, my dog had an inflamed prostate and was bleeding quite profusely from his willy. Being 15, I couldn't drive but I phoned the vets anyway - they told me to get there when I could, but in the mean time to put pressure on it.

Eventually found the neighbour of a friend who was able to give me a lift up there, and that's when the TV crew arrived.
