I thought that was normal for Guisborough

It flaming well is at the moment - I'm beginning to think that my slightly soggy 5 weeks hols. back in June/July were probably the pick of the Summer as regards weather.

Glad you enjoyed Filey - canny place isn't it?
My father was stationed there with the RAF, just before the outbreak of WWII.
My mother and sister were with him in married quarters.
We were just outside Filey last September - here - recommended if you fancy coming South again next year.

No communication until very late at night, and then only very limited. He had to stop talking after about a minute at around
10.45 last night, he then texted again just after 11, and then had to go by 10 past,,so it looks like I will have to go and fetch him tomorrow, I can't rest with him so unhappy there, it's stressing us both out terribly.

I wonder if he was sent to a recruitment and selection centre where the process can be deliberately arduous. I spent a day with a mate on a pre-para selection course at Catterick with a mate who was doing medical support for applicants in case any of them needed medical attention. He is a Major and a Doctor. The programme and set up was gruelling, testing and it looked serious stuff.

I am sorry to hear Richard, that it didn't work out.

That'll be the same Virgin Internet which is going to cost me another £4 a month (including TV and phone) from November.
They do say I'm getting a 'free' upgrade to 100mbps b/band from the current 70mbps.

Afternoon all, well it turned out to be a nice afternoon after the grey rainy start this morning, I've been over to a neighbours garden to pull me plums.

Got a big bag full off his tree.

PERVERT - in public too

I was down at my mate's farm on Monday afternoon - came away with a huge bucket full of brambles. If the apples on our tree ripen nicely, we should have a big enough supply to keep us in bramble and apple crumbles throughout the Winter months.
