I cannot think of anything less that I would stay up to watch than the US election. Watching paint dry would be more interesting. On that exciting note, I shall say goodnight to all you good people.

jeffmack, mostly tourist stuff in Manhattan but spent most of the time in East Hampton on Long Island. Very nice out there. Lotsa sandy beaches and good drinking/eating joints. It was out of season there but that was o.k.
A friend of a friend who is a commodities floor trader tried to get me into the stock exchange but it couldn't be done - very tight security. I just had to content myself with having a look at it from the outside.
Finger prints were taken at the airport. Each index finger tip placed on a glass plate and photo'd. Very easy and took no time at all.

Morning All, from a very damp and dismal Yorkshire. Pleasing to see the market much brighter than the weather. Will start the day with a large pot of tea and toast.

jj,
It was actually quite easy to take that photo. The trick was to get my husband to take it while I suspended myself in mid-air.
Poochy,
Calm down boy! You're like a dog on heat.

Snoball..so they're eating and drinking joints in the good ol' US of A now huh, in my day we just lay back and puffed a little and dreamed of lemonade springs....
Dawg...I reckon Hils snappy was taken fromn above on a duvet and snigger snigger, suspect wearer had little else on. Well thats the picture I've got in my mind and this guy's not changing it!
Which end of the 'orse did you give the apple to; we heard it was a three legged clothes horse.
Agree with Socs re US erection; if they're the best two canditates that lot can produce then God help America and the little offshore state called Great Britain.
Warmish day here....34 degrees

been to NY many times. Spent a couple of days at Southampton one summer, as you say, the Hamptons are something special.

Off for a trim of the 'barnet fair'; jaccaranda trees are almost in full bloom in the town [there are avenues of them] and they have a beautiful lilac/lavender flower which completely dominates the trees, very nice and they last from now until about Xmas depending on the winds.
Cafe appears empty so had a luke warm cup of tea, milk was on the turn so maybe we should change our milky person? Not the same since 'Baps the Cow' upped and left in a huff.
Appears a close run thing over the pond; expect it'll be another stitch up, the same as when Al Gore lost last time despite getting more votes [alledgedly]!
It'll all be fish'n' chip paper by Saturday.

Morning Jeffers, like your taste re Southampton.
I too have been there many times,mostly in the winter tho', we always called it the 'Dell' but guess the 'Hamptons' would do just as well; all depends what type of activity you were upto and what part of the anatomy was involved?

Morning - for goodness sake little Willie send some of that warmth
and sun over here will you, we could all do with it - another damp
non-descript day in Middx!
So it looks like Bush again for another term - no comment...
Off to check the market, so I'll grab a danish and a cup of tea
to take with me!

Why do the Yanks think so much of Bush? I don't think he has done so very much for America of the stability of the World.
Large pot of tea in quick lunch break, have you got a Danish left Bunny, after gateaux they are one of my favourits.

Sorry Opto - afternoon - see we both posted at once LOL
I agree on the Bush front frankly, but their whole voting system
is so complex - no wonder it takes so long for a result to be certain!
Yes a couple of danish's left, help yourself
