Spent a happy hour with Cally who is operating his disco and having a chat with people on Facebook. Some of the stuff he played took me back to when I was taking Mme out to the movies on a Saturday night. It is not good when you find out how old he is these days. 
Very late good morning all from a cool and dry Weston-super-Mare!
Have a good day
Apparently today is a special day for Star Wars fans...
May the fourth be with you!

Morning all. A lovely summer like day here again with temperatures expected to reach 24°C but feeling like 29°C. It doesn't look as though it will last long as storms are expected overnight. There is some activity around the hamlet this morning as my young friend has just returned from a shopping excursion with his grandmother, and there is a workman doing something with a hammer at the home of the Parisian family. The lizards are warming up on the stone wall of the barn; they really are very disagreeable to each other, constantly fighting and there are many of them with shortened tails. We have put off shopping for as long as possible, but it seems that needs must and a trip to town is required. More paper permits that probably will not be required. The end of those is in sight. Have a good day whatever you are getting up to.
A pleasant, sunny Spring day here - so it's dog washing day for me. It takes forever as she hates it - which is very strange. Our daily walks take in either the beach, where she loves playing in the surf - or there's a large park just over from our house in which there is a lochan, into which she loves diving and paddling around. Unfortunately, the lochan is home to numerous ducks who treat it as their own private cesspit - so the dog comes out stinking. The minute she sees me getting the hose out, she runs - so I normally send her out for a walk with my wife while I set up everything I need.

Grey and wet up in Yorks today....... so no walking....... had planted out a whole bunch of seedlings yesterday so the wet is well timed...
Seems as though TV viewing has really taken off in France, with M. Joe Average tuning in for 4 hours and 40 minutes each day, starting around 8.00 am. The news programmes in the middle of the day and early evening are seeing unprecedented viewing figures. My neighbour Bernard however has not changed as he puts his TV on mid-morning and it stays on all day and evening, even when he has an afternoon nap. Cooking programmes and sport when on take his attention, but his wife takes the remote away from him when there is a soap that she wishes to watch.
Good morning all from a cool and dry Weston-super-Mare!

Good day all... .off for a local woodland walk today.... a but grey and chilly
Morning all. Bright on and off, but also quite breezy. The storms forecast for last night didn't arrive, supporting my theory that the Météo is simply reusing old forecasts due to a lack of staff. Bit late this morning as after an afternoon in the garden Mme discovered that she had spent the night in bed with a tic. It doesn't look as though it had a go at her, but after a week in hospital a few years ago she is very wary of the little devils. One of our much younger friends had a similar experience, and she now has all sorts of health problems as she didn't get it treated as quickly as Mme. So gardeners and ramblers beware of them. Have a good insect free day.
I remember French tv as being absolutely awful, things must be bad over there.
Seeing as you haven't lived here for years I don't think that you would know what it is like today.
OK you lovely people, I'm off to bed!
Night all
Night H
Night Dave, hope you get a good night's sleep.
I expect it is still mainly game shows and re-runs of poorly dubbed The Sweeney.
