    How many words does English have for rain?

    Wet and dull and dark down here at this end of Kent but the daffodils are coming up and my flowering current bush is budding. And the evenings are definitely getting lighter. Spring is round the corner and we shall survive (just…).

    Janacek’s string quartet is on air. What a wonderful change! (I have nothing against Mozart any other time).

      Doversoul, are you trying to blow my cover? I've already been accused of working for M15 today.

      Mahlerei, up to date info in another place. Now Isound like a pesky politician. pouring with rain still. Off for my afternoon snooze.

        salymap,

        I send you sun beams, generous amounts from the North of Scotland.

          Lots of sunbeams in Dundee too - and it's mild! It's a pity I'm stuck at work until 8.00.

              My suggestion is that we should meet with our parcels conveniently wrapped for easy exchange at a bus shelter or coffee shoppe convenient for you & then do the swop, Smiley-style

              How many non-dyed kippers were you thinking of?

                Hello stormyweatherites: here's the report from SE New England. IT'S COLD. We've had another dump of snow two days ago and now the temps are dropping close to single digits (F) at night. I'm hoping the hose to the washing machine doesn't freeze up. Our old house is not insulated so vulnerable pipes and hoses tend to freeze when the mercury drops. I'm keeping my fingers crossed for decent weather on Mon/Tues when my husband flies over the pond for an 8 day visit with family up north. salymap: I hope the kipper caper goes well. Kippers yum!

                  Morning Stormyweatherites. Hope you all feel better than I do. Am going back to bed for a bit. Just heard the best performance ever at 5.15am [ish] on TTN. Don't laugh, Dukas, Sorcerer's Apprentice. Charles Du [something] with French Radio Orchestra. This has good associations with teaching someone to listen properly to music. best,

                    Morning salymap I hope you feel better when you rise again. A bit early to see what the weather is yet but the forecast is not good especially for our western neighbours in Cumbria. Putting on Breakfast and not hearing your Wolfie is just a little bit of a joy!

                      Morning anton, What a funny life I lead. Day seems to turn into night somehow. Iwonder if you have left the'other page' you wrote to me on for good? There was an unanswered post about British composers, one of my

                      hobby horses. So many works have disappeared and they are not all bad ones. Still wetout but can only get better.

                          Very odd as I have posted VMs to both Salymap and Eudai's Profile pages without any error message

                            Bright, sunny, cold here today...and it was supposed to snow again! Good travel weather for brother and sister-in-law who are travelling to Moscow from NYC in a few hours. Salymap, I hope you're feeling a bit better as the day goes on.

                              Morning all. Sorry to hear of the death of actress Susanna York. Does anyone remember the Anglo/American films on the American airmen over here? She played the female lead and was torn between her boring husband and a gorgeous airman. T'was ever thus. RIP Susanna.
