OK temporary accomodation for us ex-pats of Spacie's coffee house that is sadly now boarded up and in memory of Goldie's old pad the tearooms.
No fancy stuff, as this is temporary until we find a nice new place but it's warm down here with the fire and aga and I've organised a daily guinness, lager and wine delivery. There is a small kitchen in the corner and a few comfy cosy armchairs.
So feel free to take refuge when you need a break - self-service generally I'm afraid but when I can I'll rustle up a meal :>)

Not allowed rock! I saw pics of floods in Bournemouth, didn't realise Bishop's Stortford had floods too. Bad luck, hope your property is ok.
No KEAYDIAN is in that fluorescent pink bin over there! ;o)

rain in a few hours. That must of been a bad day no movement in the bin.

Just popped in for an early cup of tea and see it has been raining a bit. Saw some bins floating off down twards the river, ugly flourescent thing one was. Probably next be seen somewhere in the English Channel.
Ah, tea. Just what the physician ordered.

Rumour has it that a bin owner has been arrested by coastguards for sailing without safety equipment and the bin lacking the necessary red, green and white navigation lights. Of course it is only a rumour, they may just sink it as a hazard to shipping.

Oh dear, it's a bad day to try to raise bail money!

You don't need money to bail, just a bucket! Oh, I see what you mean.

A bucket! Now that's an idea; I'll use this one, just put a sticker on - "KEAYDIAN's bail money". There, I'll just leave it on the bar, it'll fill up quickly I'm sure.
I'll start the fund off. (Chink) That's a good start!

Get two buckets, we'll drop one off to Keaydian so he can bail out any water the bin takes on in the waves.

Do you think he would want my old foreign coins, got some francs, drachma and phennigs he can have.

Actually, I've just had a thought. As there is a bin involved the magistrate might refuse to grant bail. Get it? refuse! Eh! Yes refuse, as in rubbish! Good innit? Haha!
Oh, ok I'll get my coat.

Question - How can you see dolphins, are you in a boat on the channel . Should I not be thinking like that.
