Blogging posts suspended for now due to flooding of house last night. Water had subsided this morning but you can imagine the mess! Birds lovers don't panic, the House Sparrows, Starlings and Blackbirds and all their young are fine and being well fed.
Canon lovers.............cameras first to be evacuated to higher ground.
Since you asked............we are getting there, thanks.
Hope you can get back to normal soon John
ReplyDeleteGood decision about the cameras!
ReplyDeleteCan only repeat the above and hope you are able to settle back very soon John. Cheers.
John,
ReplyDeleteI can only add my hopes that everything gets back to normal (well as normal as you will ever be) soon. Nice to see you were in such an upbeat mood this afternoon and that the pussies didn't seem too bothered about the mess. Noticed you hadn't washed the car as that tide mark round its bonnet shows how lazy you are. Now who can I make pals with who will buy me my Maccydees Latte fix on a saturday morning.
John
Remember, Im only a phone call away and you know how good I am with my hands after helping me put the shed up

Really sorry to hear about your bad luck John - it must be a dreadful experience. I just hope the insurance company and all the various services do their stuff quickly.
ReplyDeleteWe were out in the Tyne valley at Corbridge, about two miles from the car, when the thunderstorm passed right overhead, and watched lightning strike the railway line less than 400 metres away. Scared the **** out of me. All the best to you and your wife. Phil.
