The Chill Out Zone

[stevestrat]

When I was younger we had a Doberman who loved the heat, couldn't lie any closer to the fire, one of those enclosed, glass fronted jobs. Every now and then you'd hear TSSST as her nose touched the glass

Rain has eased off now but wind is still wild.

Evening Steve, back from the pub now, the weather here has turned cold although the rain has finally stopped, Meg is now asleep on the rug following her night in the pub 🤣

Morning everyone.

Nice red sunrise this morning.

Getting the house ready for my visitor, hoping my niece is coming for a visit.

Morning all.

Clear blue sky and chilly following the Biblical storm last night.

Looks like wrap up and outside jobs today.

Quizzie's a bit of a heat fiend as well - but not like your Dobermann Steve

And on the subject of heat we've succumbed and put the boiler in. As it's coal fired - Greta loves us really - it'll stay that way until the spring. Unfortunately, while we were having the floor tiled, we've put the coal scuttle in that really sensible and safe place that we can't find now. So we've a coal "bucket" at the moment until we can find the scuttle .

Morning all from a sunny Northumberland

Nice photo Andy of the dog, the sheep and all that fresh country air.

Afternoon all

Today we are having a visit from the heating engineer and hopefully we will be able to have a hot shower and enjoy the heating after. The novelty of manning up to a cold shower has worn off.

I have just given BT notice as I am out of contract and got fed up of them charging me 42 GBP per month. I tried to get a better deal, but it was impossible to get through and speak to anyone. I have called it a day

National Rail website is advising of weather related problems so sent her a message advising her to stay another night or stay with her friend in Peterborough tonight and come back tomorrow.

Good advice Steve, it won't do any harm for her to stay on. We like Margate and have a flat there close to the sea front, but have just put it on the market for sale. We had tenants in but after a run of them abusing the flat, we decided to sell and have just had the flat inspected after the last tenant left. Strange person - instead of curtains on the windows, she had sheets of foil paper stuck to them and never opened the windows, she burnt the carpet in the lounge and ruined it.

The estate agent told us not to worry about repainting or doing it up, as the next buyer will gut everything out......

Enjoy the day
