Ivy (Mother in Law) was not very well last night when we saw her at the home.
She has been taken into Hospital in the small hours of this morning so Ros and I will be up there later.
Hopefully she will be improving by the time we get there.

No cat rescue visit today because of going to hospital. We may pop over tomorrow at some point......After the Japnese Grand Prix and BTCC Final from Brands Hatch.

Oh Heck! I hope Ivy will be OK Jeff.

I think I know what I want for Christmas, I've seen one of these desktop departure boards They're very cool but a bit spendy.

Err . . . . why

After watching that cr@p film last night I'm sticking with an oldie at the moment "And soon the darkness". 70s film about two girls on a cycling holiday in France and one disappears.

LOL I'm gullible when it comes to shiny flashing computer gadgets


The ne'er do wells are out in force setting industrial size fireworks off , It's bedlam out there & can only get worse in the next three weeks.



I've been told by my driver mates in the haulage business tonight that Stobart's are close to going belly up.

I think they are too big, got their fingers in too many pies! Road haulage, rail transport, rail civil engineering, aviation. That and the Chief Exec walking after a £2,000,000 hole was found in their accounts just over a month ago!

Evening all, not looking good for Stobart's according to the rumours that have been around for the last few weeks.

Hopefully it will get sorted out, would be a shame if another iconic company disappeared (And for the drivers, one of which is a member here!)

I've been on the Deutsche Bahn on freight traffic this evening and I'm just opening a bottle of Henry's cider & about to watch Rita Sue & Bob too.
