So no posting from Shop 7-8pm?

Or Liberty

Safe travels Novice and Dry

LHR and Gatwick are canceling flights already however there is a pecking order as to which are cancelled. I know that the Edinburgh/Gatwick run tomorrow morning has been cancelled. Awaiting news of Gatwick/Barcelona as have friends arriving on it to stay. This is looking doubtful.

RE 'nap time'. I miss the days when both children were in school. They have a habit of turning up here at unpredictable times since leaving so now the the only thing that happens on the kitchen floor is the washing of it.

shop a selfie will do ala kim kardashian,

Marsha glad party was fun. I like the hostess' fancy dress idea. Will have to remember that for future.....

Good idea Shop, usually close to 8pm though when I get DD settled (info for Dry) and DH snoring on the couch beside me now!

Sorry Linus I meant to say, you look great in the Hush dress.

BTW where is Grumpy? Hols?

Yes Linus Hush dress is lovely

That is an acheivement one, I have to grate them and stealth them into sauces like I do for the DC. Today there was whinging at a bit of diced carrot in the lasagne. Sigh.

Am back in hospital on weds for my hand op to be redone. I feel like I live there just lately! Expect the return of the grubby bandage on my blog.

fingers crossed that the op is a success this time amber oh, can I get a link to your blog actually? I looked at it ages ago and now can't find it again.

Morning...

Has everyone survived the storm ok?

All we've had is lots and lots of rain!

Awful here Anni really windy overnight and still bad now. Our trees have survived but all trains cancelled so DH at home and in a bad mood
Novice good luck flying today

All good here, about to go to work. Deck and back windows need a clean, leaves everywhere!
Hope your travel plans go ok today novice.

Anni it must have happened in the night, I didn't even see it but just windy here now.

Yep it's a good one Shop all you need is black wig, white shirt etc. meant to say hostess obvs!

Novice good luck today, is your flight still on?

Trains cancelled here so cannot get to work. Oh dear what a shame . it is just starting to hit here.

Saddened to hear of the death of Lou Reed. Have seen him countless times live. Really really sad.

good luck novice ,hope everything goes ok.

very windy here too,we are postponing going to inlaws yay .

Haven't seen Grumpy on here for an age - hope all ok
and Mom........
DH is driving me mental already - trying to sit at the table in the playroom to do his work and expecting DS to not bother him. We'll have to go out - high winds or no high winds.......

I have a question if I may.....?
What happens if you wear wool coats in the rain or snow? I ask having seen this Pin of EA
I hate having to pull on an ugly waterproof coat in the winter. If I wear my peacoat or my camel Maison Scotch coat in the bad weather am I going to ruin them?

I only have wool coats, they seem fine. She looks good, EA can do a hat.

I wore my green peacoat in the rain last winter and it's fine.

I hung it on the back of a chair to dry, away from direct heat etc.

If it was lashing down, I'd wear my parka instead though, for the hood.

I usually struggle with toddler, umbrella, handbag etc...

I like her boots too - good heel height......

Me too. Think the coat is Isabel M, not sure if boots are too.

Wool coats should be dried away from direct heat and ensure you also hang them so that they retain their shape.

Dry them slowly and they'll be fine. don't try to towel dry them or blot the water as it drives dirty rainwater into the fibres.
