Tea?

[classic33]

Afternoon all
Out for a jaunt with Mrs M,
an absinthe mercy mission to Fife
supply now procured
Let the madness begin (and yes, I have two ears)

Never had any cake..
someone dozed off

Owdo
Still sunny up those parts?
Not been a good weekend for you, sofar.
Supplies running out, no cake testing(I take it they at least saved you some!), and you nodding off at the wrong time.

The madness hasn't started yet?
Why not?

'Tis a grand day out...
icy start..
not been that bad,
instead of using the Brazilian river company delivery ..
it was off to pick up a bottle...(didn't know there was a stockist nearer)
I shall partake later..
Must remember the cake too

We've a wired in phone, still works if there's a power failure, for emergency medical use.

I'm certain I'm not alone in this, but what happens to these phones. There's some fall alert systems that rely on there being a working landline at all times.

You have to have a phone which does not rely on an electrical supply so I have a basic antideluvian one which I can just plug in and if the phone lines are not down can still just about remember how to use it so long as I have written down phone numbers.

As long as you enjoyed yerssen, that's what matters. Any "reminders" you bought on yer jaunt are just that. You'll soon forget about them.
It were cold, so they're saying, overnight.
Just a bottle, nothing in it? Didn't realise you were into bottle collecting.
Whatever you do don't forget the cake.

It wouldn't matter, nor would it work, if it has to go through a device that will only work when it's powered.

The phone is powered by the telephone system. If that type goes what'll replace it?

For now, some folk are saying it's on the point of turning. Summer was grand this year, weren't it!

Reap as you sow just don't let the grass grow under yer feet.

Anything in particular you'll be sowing and growing this year?

Just what i did last year, sunflowers (kept some seeds), sweet peas, peas and toms, have other seeds to try.
At lest if it's wet, it'll wash the dust off the roads and clog up the gullys
I'll take last summer again...

I'm enjoying the quiet before Beag appears
and hopefully his granny with coffee

Old age, too many irons in the fire, laziness!

Not much done in those four weeks then.
Hopefully it'll continue getting better.

You can't eat sunflowers, can you!
Best o'luck with this batch, just remember which sunflower you used for next time.
