I believe almost the first time I corresponded with you Calum....was when your roof fell in circa 2007 ??....

Stormy weather indeed in our neck of the woods. We're in the midst of a classic nor'easter with heavy rain and strong wind. Thank you all for good wishes about the tree and house. So far no gales blowing through the house but the tree is still leaning on the roof. Insurance has agreed to cover tree removal and the tree expert will be looking at the situation after lunch. I'm keeping fingers crossed that the removal won't be too difficult. Also fingers crossed that the rain does not turn to snow.

Weather here, Monday night was -3, left home around -something Tuesday! Today, probably warmer but a dank drear day, horribly, Novemberish, bring on December.
Oh, have to tell you this. Went into Waitrose for ordinary shopping such as a bottle of bleach (oh, I know, I know, she's killing the environment) anyhows, there it was 'Waitrose Essential Thick Bleach - Mulled Spice' So I popped it in the basket and the nice guy at the checkout, Peter, said 'Blimey, will your toilet smell like Gluhwein?' (Then, he leant over confidentially and said he liked the smell of bleach, it meant everything was clean, and fresh, like lemons, did I like lemons, so we had a discussion about lemons!)
Sorry, that was so off-topic as to be stratospheric!

No, 8thO. I'm not down that way much since mum moved east a year ago, but they do look rather fine, and would be worth a visit.
This amazing device (the Falkirk Wheel) is in the same area.

"...the isle is full of noises,
Sounds and sweet airs, that give delight and hurt not.
Sometimes a thousand twangling instruments
Will hum about mine ears, and sometime voices..."
