Some people chat but others ignore you. <br />It wasn't me being a whale I was in Dovedale but just you wait.Regnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23282643.post-77686580572162604662009-05-20T17:03:20.016+01:002009-05-20T17:03:20.016+01:00I would have been complaining about that meal too,...I would have been complaining about that meal too, hope Y wrote in as well....Under-cooked veg. definitely the trend, we used to get a special container at dinner on the last cruise containing well-cooked veg. just for us...<br /><br />I do admire you doing all that swimming, Y, can I sit with you, G, in the lounge bar...R is a holiday swimmer, he can go on for length after length, up and down (must be very boring!)but he complains that these 'spa pools' in hotels are not for serious swimmers.<br /><br />The Trees in Britain book looks just like my 'Wild Flowers in Britain' book, same author. A great find.<br /><br />I remember the tombstone at Newstead, and was pleased to be reminded of the poem. And a good quote too! Flanders and Swan used to do a good ditty about English weather....Jillnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23282643.post-58452880714601619542009-05-20T13:02:14.856+01:002009-05-20T13:02:14.856+01:00My second attempt at a comment - will I never lear...My second attempt at a comment - will I never learn that if I decide to 'preview' it before publication it goes into the ether. Graham can always find it but he's not here!<br /><br />So - FOUR lengths at the swimming pool but passed a dozen times by a whale (male, of course) deluging all the sedate lady breast-stroke swimmers as he charged up and down. (Wait until I find my feet - and I'll have him ....).<br /><br />Then the jacuzzi - surely the world's best-kept secret. And perhaps Reg could help me out with the etiquette - if someone joins you, should you leave as it's a bit intimate?<br /><br />Then Lib.-Dem. leaflet deliveries. After all the exercise, I was fired up and desperate for the confrontation of the old days (particularly during the Jeremy Thorpe scandal) but never saw anyone!<br /><br />But a question arose re. hanging ............ whoever invented those tight letterboxes with the brushes so that your hand gets jammed should be considered a candidate ...... An hour later, I still have the marks.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03265308940596696219noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23282643.post-8087036154311843712009-05-19T20:57:00.000+01:002009-05-19T20:57:00.000+01:00This variable weather seems remarkably consistent....This variable weather seems remarkably consistent.<br /><br />You certainly make the meal sound unpleasant (although Sandra would consider the veg ‘just right’).<br />It isn’t actually on Anglesey,is it?<br /> <br />I find Big Issue invariably worth reading.<br /><br />I suppose ‘a bedraggled, saturated, Liberal Democrat’ is better than no Liberal Democrat at all (we don’t have one).<br />I campaigned for the Social Democrats. What a long time ago.<br /><br />I was certainly wrong about alders, possibly because they’re the same family as birch but dark grey and fissured. <br />And you may well be right, but I had a second thought (after googling), maybe Aspen? (photo by email).<br /><br />I didn’t say there was never ANYTHING I admired in ‘Peoples Friend’!<br />The story of Gellert is also touching (and I can cry at Bambi's mother).<br /><br />Us too, with Central Heating. <br /><br />Jill:<br />In summer 1975, one of hottest recorded, snow stopped Derbyshire playing cricket on Spring Bank Holiday; 3 month heat-wave started 2 days later.bobnoreply@blogger.com
