Tea?

[classic33]

Morning Tealand. Am I first?

Put the headtorch on for an early trot in case the weather forecast is correct and the weather is to close in soon. Just drizzly rain so far.

Wrong for down here. Rain wasn't supposed to get this far.

Good Morning

Owdo

Overslept. Grey and gloomy this morning but at least it isn't blowing a hooley or raining. Yet.

What tha have to get up for, that you overslept?

Good morning


We have snow

Be a miracle with the stuff presently under mine...

Well, if you moved the boots and books to the foot o'bed...

Morning??

Of course it waited until I'd cycled to the tip in the next town, then it started...

 

[classic33]

BoS, Brig o' Doon?

Someone else who see's nowt wrong with going out in the early hours. That's two more now.

That is the nearest. For various boring historical reasons our 'town' is a group of about six villages and the services are distributed throughout. The tip is in the next one along, which to be fair is the geographic centre of all of them.

You just took it to the tip then. Centre of the universe sort?

What important service(s) are in your village/town though? Need something to get folk visiting.

You have put your finger on the problem.

That said our little village is home to one of the two biggest printers in Europe, (Marco Polo/Baedeker/Road atlases for most European countries, et c) so although we don't have tourists we do have employment locally.

Sounds like they operate in twos

You're gonna slow down, bring him in closer. Then hit the brakes...

Having attempted to use a Marco Polo map, I'll be staying away from them in future. Road shown when it's open fields. An "L" road which was the bog road. Bad enough on a 4X4 tractor, all but impassable by car.
