Good morning people, family here later, Rugby later, I haven't wordled or quordled yet, I got round to yesterday's quordle last night and managed three out of four, I wouldn't have got the last wordeven if I hadn't run out of guesses.

Wordle in 6 , just made it.
Our daughter is coming over at some point today, but I don't know what time though.
It seems that there is already some reports of panic buying at petrol stations. Some with Jerry cans stocking up People never learn.

Enjoy your day everyone

Morning folks a bit overcast but there was a pleasant pinkish hue to the sky earlier. Have now got a sofa! after parking my r's on my old dogs cushion for a week its nice to have a more elevated and comfortable perch
Had a look in the attic yesterday..always interesting, never know whats up there...a couple of golf umbrellas, some glasses, a dismantled pine bed [wood could come in handy for making a cloche or something] a big roll of carpet and a treasure chest full of gold doubloons.....

Morning. What a lovely start. Cool, but bright and not much wind so far. I was out early for a 5k. Hard work as usual. Even downhill feels hard these days. Lol.

A decent evening of telly for me with Countryfile, The Good Karma Hospital and Trigger Point. I will give Peaky Blinders a miss as I have never taken to it for some reason.

Wordle was done in 3 earlier and I might try Quordle once I get my cuppa.

Didn't take too long.

Good morning everyone from a gloriously sunny Lancashire. It's still and +/-6C which is pretty damn good compared to recent days. I'm just catching up - Congratulations to @dave r and Mrs D

My boys done good yesterday. I'll say no more. Promise! We then had a good night out in Manchester with #1 son, partner and both sets of parents. Excellent. This morning I'm just catching up a bit of admin while I wait for the temperature to rise a little and then I'll get the bike out. I'm going to head over to the edges of the Ribble Valley taking in some good local climbs - Mellor Brook, Jeffrey Hill (using Gallows Lane, Huntingdon Hall Road @ColinJ - you may not know those two) before returning via Longridge and Ribchester to face the formidable Saccary Lane followed by Gregson Lane, Hillhouse Lane and Toplock.

Film Club at out house tonight and we have chosen The Power of The Dog, a film everyone is talking about these days. I watched it before Christmas and thought it very, very good and one worth showing our friends, since then the world has caught up - slightly disappointed it's not going to be the off beat thing I thought it would be but hey ho........

So take care and catch you all later

Tried the bloody Wordle thing and got it in 3 but did not enjoy it. Its masochism . Word puzzles don't appeal. Is there an equivalent daily general knowledge quiz ?
