OK, who will be the first to tell us why the big old warship has been parked up near the wind farm for a few days now.
yesterday it was the centre of attention with a sea king helicopter buzzing around it for ages.
Ok young man so what's the latest news on this story? ..Ive travelled all the way from Somerset for an update.. I understand there could be a very big bang if things go pear shape.. Might be advisable to wear hard hats.. cheers for now..TT
First of all, welcome T - T to our side of our great country.
you are more than welcome to join in with our sometimes slow message board.
Well T - T.....lol
when i went out for a paper earlier, the mystery ship had mysteriously vanished, either that or overnight they had painted it with camouflage paint and i cant see it anymore..
..Hi Ivan.. thanks for the quick update..no news through the local grapevine then?..very mysterious indeed.. this wind farm?..I take it its an offshore one?..does it pose any problems at all?..They did propose building some near my locality but the natives kicked up a bit of a fuss..so they never built them.. Ok...will watch this space for more news.. cheers..TT
Ah Somerset ,brings back charming memories of staggering home from Rogers Scrumpy farm ,camping on to of Cheddar Gorge at Shipham ,falling down Glastonbury Tor and chilling out with the nice man in Cheddar with a tea shop (he served hid National Service at Fingeringhoe).My second most favourite county.
Welcome T-T .
By the way ,we seem to have all your Grockles in their Grundy bins down here .Want them back ??.
Hi young leafy tree falling lady, how are our digits of late !
from your post, are you, or have you, been at a mature bottle of west countries best vintage ?
Oh dear, that`ll make my schpielin look worser now.
Lin, i`d better tell thee young lady, i sent by the magic of all things internet`ish, your picture link of pooh and piglet to the west country....
you may well be responceable for some falling off their chairs today.
Laughter has no dialect or bounderies.
Lin, look in on this link, it also has some funnies you will like.
Its the Burnham on sea website.

Hi there Lin.. so pleased you have great memories of Somerset..I must admit I like the county as well..Been here rather a long time too.. That cider makes most people stagger as well.. must be all the dead rats which supposedly gets into the cider.. ..Had a cream tea at Cheddar only last week..Fantastic it was.. So all the Grockles we sent your way arrived safely..when they left here they had plenty of cash with them so the traders your way will have made a mint out of them... ...You can keep them for as long as you want..we still have plenty of our own.. and they are spending money as if theres no tomorrow.. ..cheers for now.. TT
Panic stations over then Ivan.. Probably just a training exercise then..or maybe they are checking up on you weather here in Somerset is dry but quite cloudy..could be rain in the making..you go steady with all that wiring or you might become a live wire.. great to see your another one that has a nap in the afternoons.. I do most days.. cheers..TT
ha..ha..ha..
" great to see your another one that has a nap in the afternoons.."
why do you think i saved this old caravan of ours...
purfect for sleeping on the job in T - T....lol
Ah yes Ivan i can see the logic in that.. tis "easy" just to pop in there when out in the garden home from home so to speak.. just started to rain over here..not very hard though..might be able to mow the meadow later.. enjoy your siesta, I know I will.. ..TT
One man and his dog called Spot and a bottle of pop ,and a sausage roll and a packet of crisps ...went to mow a meadow ....................doh ,fancy forgetting that ,cheers Vicar .I am taking two eldest grandsons to a log cabin in the woods soon and now I can drive them mad (as is my right as a Grandmother ) in the car all the way there now
Afternoon vicar, did we wake you ?
re:- your spot, its ok, the doctors are open in the morning i believe.
Oh, and your bottle of opo (sorry, wrong stuff) pop,
hope it goes down well with your sausage rolls.
If I tink Trunkerthree is where I tink he is ,perhaps we could have a Coast to Coast spot on here to compare the differences between the opposite side of the country . jst a thought.

verily verily fair maiden, for my cyber travels have gone before you.
What a brilliant site Ivan .knocks anything we have into a cocked hat.especially liked the Parish Record transcriptions .
Never quite got to Burnham but managed a great game of footie on Weston beach at sunset .Then a nice drink in a local hostelry.
Lin, i think the sheer size of country it covers is what makes it better informed, where as, in reality, its only just a few local`ish posters now on ours.
.. Good morning to you all.. Never managed to mow the meadow yesterday.. its in the plan for today..maybe.. ..weather here is cloudy but dry and a slight breeze as well..quite comfortable really.. ..Mention was made of our local forums..all I can say it gets a bit volatile at times as some of the natives fall out with each other at times...hard hats are advisable to be worn then.. to me it's nice to come to a forum like yours where it seems quite peaceful.. ...right,time for another coffee and then some chores to do.. take care...TT..
Morning T - T, i`ve left a link on your site to our councils site.
its a bit different, but maybe a bit of a read when bored...
the weather today is occasional light rain, overcast, and slight windy at times...
and my grass grows as i look at it almost... ...lol
will need to fire up the briggs & stratton and get cutting today or soon i expect. ..
Hello Somerset ,this is Clacton calling.......
Peaceful forum !!!!!!! had to laugh at that one.
In 'Sunny' Clacton it is grey ,overcast and 'spittly'.I forcast it will be sunny by teatime.
Don't even mention lawn mowers Ivan ,I must start mine up (I do like a petrol mower as all the men who work across the road find it funny that a little old Granny can use such a machine).My daisies are coming on a treat (unfortunately).
I also have two blossoms on my new cherry tree so I will savour the moment when THE cherry is ripe.May even have a glass of elderflower with it at end of summer.
