sunnyday Posted June 14 Author Posted June 14 We had the most spectacular storms here last night - went on for hours... This morning we have no water, not a drop...apparently the storms caused a power outage at pumping station - let's hope this is shortlived this time and not the beginning of a week without water and needing to collect from a water station, that is still etched in my mind- please keep your fingers and toes crossed for me and my fellow villagers! 2 Quote
Froglet Posted June 14 Posted June 14 Everything is crossed for you Sunnyday! I remember the last time! It's very sunny but also very blustery up here - I wonder if the storms are heading north. 1 Quote

Thank you young Froglet - we were so lucky all restored by lunchtime - phew - hard to not overreact think we are all scarred by the events of summer '22! 3 Quote

zigzag Posted Sunday at 16:37 Posted Sunday at 16:37 Sorry late to the chat this week. We had torrential weather on Friday! It seemed to be one of those days when you were constantly soggy! Think we were the only place in the country to be like that. It was lovely yesterday but bit overcast today. Think next week is going to be good though! The only good thing about it is it saves watering the veg garden! Glad everyone is ok. 1 Quote
sunnyday Posted yesterday at 07:42 Author Posted yesterday at 07:42 Good morning - 'tis Friday Another week has just whooshed by... How is everyone? How amazing is this weather - I am so enjoying this retirement lark - it's been a while now but I am still 'surprised' by the idea that I can do as much or as little as I like - think today it might be the latter! Have a good weekend all x 1 2 Quote
SueFinanceManager Posted yesterday at 10:13 Posted yesterday at 10:13 Morning Beautiful weather here in Lewes and looking like I will be doing some early dog walks over the weekend before it gets too hot. My hubby is golfing Saturday and Sunday so some nice quiet time - me, the dog and my audiobook while I dog walk and then potter round the house/garden. Enjoy your weekends whatever you get up to peoples 💗 2 2 Quote
louby loo Posted 23 hours ago Posted 23 hours ago (edited) Hi everyone. OMG!!!! I cannot beileve we (I) only have 2 weeks 4 days to go!! Another not very exciting week for me - although I have now got a chesty cough/cold 😭 I even took a Covid test, it was negative. I did suggest that maybe we should close the preschool this year as our numbers are very low for September- but staff were rather against it for some reason. We are a not for profit group, and financially we can make it until December. Long term - July 26 is the most definate end for me- that's when my GS leaves. Have a good weekend all. x Edited 23 hours ago by louby loo 2 1 Quote
Froglet Posted 21 hours ago Posted 21 hours ago Oh Louby colds are miserable at the best of times but especially in this kind of weather - I hope it clears up soon. I have had a gentle week. Some reading and sock knitting (I won't wear them for a bit but they are good small projects for hot weather). I made a rhubarb and custard cake, got my hair cut and spent the first part of the day reading in the garden whilst it was still cool out there. 1 2 Quote
zigzag Posted 18 hours ago Posted 18 hours ago This weather just makes life so much better doesn't it! Sunnyday I completely agree with you, once my job is done by mid morning the rest of the day is mine! I absolutely love it. Have done early dogs walks this week and have enjoyed a few paddles in the sea. Got a busy weekend of changeovers which is going to be hot but hopefully they will be reasonably quick! Have a lovely weekend all. 2 1 Quote
louby loo Posted 4 hours ago Posted 4 hours ago To all of those who are 'out of it' I have a serious question..... What about the stationary fix? Do you not miss the joy of new folders, pens, diaries etc? ... and not to mention 'work bags'! 1 Quote
