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 :>)

Morning Bunny! How are things going with you today?

A coffee sounds about right, so yes please!

I'm fine thanks Kim - how's you?
Coffee on it's way for you :>)

Good thanks Bunny; the sun is trying to put a healthy glow on the hills but not quite succeeding. Badgers have been digging holes in the lawns (again) but on the upside, there is a swallow flitting around above my window. Summer is on the way!?!

one swallow doesnt make a summer

This is true JM but a bit of optimism ain't a bad thing! LOL

I like a bit of optimism, it goes well with a pint of Guinness!

But not ideally at this time of the day ;>)

But, but..................oh, well I suppose not!

LOL - have a danish instead!

I enjoyed that danish! Glad I ate it before what has just happened, :o( summer is over already, well for 1 little swallow it is; bloody sparrow-hawk has just made off with it! I have to admire the skill of the darned thing, it is extremely agile; why can't it eat a danish like us though?!

Yes you have to admire the speed and agility of the sparrow hawk but I know what you mean.

I've put some cooked mackeral and salad in the fridge if you get peckish as I've got a go out - gawd there's a nasty pun, unintentional I assure you!

Lol!

I'll have a quick scoff, then off myself, going to support our local garage by handing over some hard earned dosh; car service time, ie rip off time!

Good luck and don't let 'em get away with anything :>)

Well, car serviced, wallet 200.41 lighter, not too bad really!

Sh*t end to the day, 2 old friends were killed in a road accident this morning, puts everything into perspective when something like that happens.

mornin all,
Kim, sorry to hear of your loss.

Coffee is on, and fridge topped up with Guinness for those that need something stronger.
I have also bought lots of chocolate too just in case some nitwit [Dr. i think] gets his way to have extra tax stuck on the price. i dont eat it myself but but mrs. Alex does by the bucket load.

Thanks Alex.

I think I'll stick to the coffee today. Err, I'm stuck to the seat instead, what the......? Oh, it's a bar of chocolate!

anyone got the kettle on this morning?

I know it may be a little early, but I am still on the champagne since Saturday's beautiful result at Old Trafford - is there any in this establishment - I'll swap a bottle for my shares in WLW and MDX.

Sounds like a good deal splat! There you are; one empty bottle for WLW and a half full one for MDX ;o)
