Hello,

After I hum a few bars of Land of Hope and Glory and Rule Britannia. have decided I have no need to type up the Mark Steel article (it is a lot to type) I found it on line..

http://www.independent.co.uk/voices/comment/sending-the-least-popular-englishmen-to-plead-with-the-scots-that-was-a-good-move-9727290.html

I thought it summed it up..

Goodnight Sue <3

Although I will keep posting while I can. I have been switching the router on and off all night, checking cables etc, but it wouldn't play

Hello, :-)

Well - the kitchen is entirely empty. It has been hard work, but now done thank goodness. The last bits and pieces were more troublesome than the bulk of it. Not knowing what I may need to survive for a few days.

My other sister and her friend arrive tomorrow. Thankfully, they are staying in a local B&B.
We will go to the pub for dinner tomorrow evening.

Persie, I haven't seen the Mark Steel article on the Scottish independence issue.

Persephone Report 13 Sep 2014 23:57

Of course they speak to you Sue :-S

I am glad your OH remembers his roots

SueMaid

SueMaid Report 13 Sep 2014 23:24

They speak to me all the time Linda - it is indeed an affliction :-(

We will get Last Night of the Proms next week and we will definately be singing Rule Britannia. OH sings it every time they show the previews :-)

Tecwyn Report 13 Sep 2014 23:23

Well you should try talking to them Linda, then they might answer you :-D

The Prince of Wales talks to trees, but then he's as dotty as me :-D

I am glad I am not afflicted, plants never speak to me

Tecwyn

Tecwyn Report 13 Sep 2014 23:17

It's hard to resist when plants "speak" to you Sue - you have my understanding, and sympathy :-D

it's an affliction :-D

Glad you have a nice day. The weather here is glorious, and looks to continue.
