The Hornet's Nest

Hello, its only me!

Thanks for asking after me H, I didn't know anyone cared! The trip back from Norbiton (I had thought it was Norbury!!!) through places like Raynes Park and Earlsfield. Changing trains at places like Clapham Junction (more F ing platforms than Gary Glitter) and then Willesden Junc (I've been stuck there before!!!).

I took a picture at Willesden at 6:10 with the board stating the 17:04 train was due at 17:11! LOL, I must send that to those naff TV shows. I mean I catch trains quite a lot as I dont drive in London, unless absolutely necessary, but its the Southern Region which has me lost. Have you ever seen a map of all the criss crossing rail lines through South London?

I can smile now, but that London Overground service is total rubbish!

 

Oh yes and then there was the Amy Winehouse news.

Err I was on the train next to this nutter listening to some silly music. I am catching up on news on the mobile, when I see a tweet from Jake Humphrey (from BBC F1), I confess I misread it that she'd lost ..... and I thought "Yeah, I've been to the nether regions of London and we lost".

Then I thought again and got it right, so I contacted my Bruvs (in law), err one is in Zambia the other Sydney (was it something I said?) cos I know they were big fans from her beginning. For my money its not like the losses of Bonzo and Bon Scott who both died when they were having fun.

 

I think I'd better start winding down as we're visiting the in laws tomorrow. And leaving the kids there, so that we can decorate their bedrooms.

Wow I'm so looking forward to that!

 

Vi snakkes = "we are tales"? lol....

 

Maybe that's the only good thing to come out of all this...

 

BBW is right, you have to scroll through. I've mentioned it to Mick and i believe BHD has also done the same, and nothing has been said or done about it. It's a right blinkin' pain! lol

 

Amen to that M Frenchie...NZ, definitely in our thoughts...

 

You're welcome. I know the journey there sounded hideous so i was guessing the journey home was pretty bad too! Sounds awful! lol. Glad you got back eventually!

lol...i'll bet you are..have fun!

 

I have to wonder why i'm still awake when there's nobody around. Time for bed, me thinks. (But not before rushing off a very quick email, needs must )

Night night all, sweet dreams, see you tomorrow ...er...later today View attachment 5778

 

means talk later or see you later!!

 

Morning All, I need a strong coffee (and then another).

Things quiet around here, there is a lot of shock in the news. Need to get ready for the West Country, any volunteers to take my place?

PS : here is the worst station sign ever. The current time is 18:09, but it says the 17:04 train is due in at 17:11, you need to laugh because its so naff!

 

You`ll do a great job Elixir (might even enjoy it)

 

Morning all

About to leave for the local Farmers Market...should be back before lunch with local bread, veggies, fruit, cheese and lamb. One of the gardens in the village has an open day with cream teas this afternoon so no doubt we'll look in there too.

 

lol blinkin' online translators!

 

Morning!

That would depend if you could take mine ...or if i could take yours, which i very much doubt. Lordy, that was garbled, must be Sunday morning!

lol @ the pic!

 

that sounds lovely

 

Morning all ...work is beckoning (almost) which is a poop, but not too long thankfully. I'm enjoying these more quiet Sundays, though something tells me i shouldn't get too used to them. I'm going to try and hold onto them as long as possible!

Is the hotest day here for a short period but were have a forecast of rain for later. 15C already this morning, I checked with Veðurstofa, and is cloudy.

I forgot to tell you that KA ended their bad run on friday with a 1:1 result against ÍR in Reykjavík. Ómar Friðriksson made the score at 45.min to level after Haukur Ólafsson had scored in his own goal.

 

thanks for the latte Ak

 

As we have a good day we are washing things. We should realy do this on Saturday as laugurdagur is bath day, laug is pool or bath but we have the word bað as well.

Why do english week days have capital letters? I do not think any other tongue does.
