What a lovely way to start a Sunday morning, having a jolly good laugh. Thanks to both of you.

Hi Sid,

I'm delighted we brightened your day. I feel we all need cheering up at present, and I'm looking for lots of good material. I've a book of jokes which I'm dipping into, plus forwarded email stories, etc. I'll keep M&D going for as long as it's needed.

Maureen said...

Vivinne, the blog will always be needed, I think that we've created something different here which doesn't neccesarily have to reflect what's happening on 'tother side. It's just a nice place to visit and keep in touch. Sid, pleased tht you enjoyed a laugh, Vivienne's right, let's keep smiling. (It's a bit scary though isn't it, wondering what's coming next?)

Sid said...

Hello everyone, I'm also glad the blogs here Vivienne. Its nice to look in and see what each other is up to.
Inga has been having some terrible weather lately. It makes me wonder how she gets out and about.
The UK comes to a halt if it gets 4 inches of snow.
We had our gas/electricity bill in last week....£457-00 for a quarter period. Now THAT is extortion by the energy company's....and they are all doing it.

Hi everyone,

I love your new photo Sid, which I guess was taken at Jedwater? I'm also guessing your picture wasn't taken this year?

When Ian said he'd give out new contact details during his last show, I wondered if this would be his personal email address. It would be great if he started up a new blog for his 60/60 Project. What's happened to all those 1pm photos he's taken?

Maureen said...

That's a scary fuel bill Sid. We are considering installing a log burner which will help with the heating bills, a friend of ours loves theirs. It also saves on the recycling and shredding!
Vivienne, the one at one pictures would be a good idea, I think a new blog would be a nice fresh start.
