I got a right boll***ing from Mrs GM when I unblocked our outside drain with chemicals. Now it's get the Marigolds on and get my hand down there! 🧤

Any other time I'd have said ride first, blocked drain later.
Well that depends on which side of the beach it isToday I was woken up by the sound of the sea....it's roaring away, so it must be a South Westerly today.
It's a good job we're 40' above sea level.
They reckon we might have a beach side house in 100 years time.
That should increase property values!

Good morning. It is sunny and blue sky here but still a bit windy. Imagine that!. Going to town to pay the water rates shortly and then at my wife's disposal for a bit of DIY work.
Morning all. Lots of blue sky and a strange yellow light in the sky. I thought rain was forecast so that may come later.
Flood wise we are very fortunate here. We have a stream at the back. Years ago it was always about three foot deep but now, for some reason, its just a trickle. Heavy rain seems to just run off our land into the stream.
The Mersey is perhaps 3 miles away and they have spent a small fortune on flood defence.....new paths etc its a nice walk.
Must be dreadful for those poor folk affected by the storms.

Dirk, I may have forgotten to mention this but I have access to a scheme that will guarantee you at least 30% interest on your money. Its cast iron mate, sure thing, dead certain.Walking down to the village for a newspaper next, then a couple of phone calls to the pension people.
I should be 3 grand lighter by lunchtime.
If you send me your 3 grand I will make sure its invested safely for you, while we're mates like. Know wa' I mean

I'm sat in The Cook In The Nook in Cosby with coffee and toast, its been a nice ride out, one lane blocked by flooding but I was expecting that and had a diversion worked out, I've been flying with a tail wind, I'm expecting the ride home to be a grovel into a headwind.
