Hi,

Please look after my Blackie Logan; he and his sister Gale have been my constant companions for many years in fact I can loan you Gale; she was here last night; the bedroom window was open and I awoke to the curtains being blown around and the window rattling.

WOW it's forecast fine for today with a rise in temperature; am I still in Yorkshire?

Kind regards, Colin.

Hi,

I've just enjoyed a laugh by looking at the BBC weather forecast for my area; already today we've enjoyed yet another downpour; does sunny intervals mean between downpours? I'm visiting Rufforth Auto Jumble this Saturday what's betting the forecast is wrong?

Kind regards, Colin.

 

[Logan]

does sunny intervals mean between downpours?

Yes it does.

We wasn't supposed to have rain yesterday but we did.

Colin I'll look after Blackie and Gail for you.

Hi,

Thanks Logan. I doubt the BBC weather forecasters could correctly predict rain if they were standing under a cloudburst. It's good of you to look after Blackie and Gale for me; I hope you tire them both out before returning them to me.

21C forecast for today; I hadn't realized Yorkshire thermometers read so high.

Rufforth Auto Jumble tomorrow; will it rain?

Kind regards, Colin.

Hot and dry here in Alberta, the forest fire season has started early this year, our entire province is blanketed in smoke. I can taste it today and everything is a haze. They're getting the smoke from my province in Detroit and Denver.

Hi,

Awww thanks Logan.

WOW I've only just returned from Rufforth Auto Jumble and both Blackie and Gale haven't tormented me; overcast but warm and no gale force wind so I've enjoyed myself and bought a couple of new toys; I've been looking for a cranked hoe and spotted one so I picked it up taking it to the guy sitting in the back of his van; "How much please" reply " It's over 100 years old you can tell by the knob on the end of the handle; it's £30" he still has the hoe; at another stall I spotted another cranked hoe this too being old; the usual "How much please" reply "It's £2" it's in the car awaiting unloading; on the same stall were two old Suffolk petrol mowers; I had a good look but resisted and strolled away; a short while later I was looking at these again and thought do I actually need a third petrol mower and walked away; on the third visit one of the mowers is in the car awaiting unloading; when I asked how much I was surprised by the reply; "they need some TLC but one has its grass box which is rare and that one is £20" I love Rufforth.

We use lots of black refuse bin bags so I handed over £20 for 24 rolls which should keep us busy for a while; I couldn't leave Bron out even though Rufforth is a guy thing; I bought Bron a lidded plastic box for her card making materials at £7.50. As I wandered around I bought quite a few useful items so I'm well pleased. As I pushed the mower to the car it was funny; the mower was kicking up a right old racket with its metal roller on the tarmac and blades spinning; it was as though it was mowing a path through all the visitors who stepped to one side as I approached bearing a big smile; at the car I had a problem; I dropped the rear seats and pulled everything out of the boot just then two passing guys kindly asked if I'd like a lift into the car with the mower which I gratefully accepted thanking them for their kindness; I've never been center stage but pushing this mower drew everyone's attention to me; good job I'm not shy?

I'm having a mug of tea and bickie then I'll unload the car.

Kind regards, Colin.
