Good morning Thursday

[JoM]

Good morning all, it started off sunny here and now it's pouring down.

I've been to the gym and also managed to walk Billy before it rained.

Ally, I've caught myself dancing to Britney Spears while waiting for Billy to catch up on the common this morning

Kaz, the market sounds lovely The German Market opened in Birmingham this morning, it's staying until a few days after Christmas this year. Can' wait to visit (several times ).

Have a good day all!

Afternoon
Can't say what the weather's like as by the time I finish typing it will have changed! We've had sun, cloud, torrential rain, gusty wind, all in ever decreasing circles
Hope it stayed dry for your visit to the market Kaz
Jen how lovely to finally get all your nice bits out and decide where it's all going

Been to a friend's for coffee this morning, we'd missed each other for ages as she went away the day before we came home, so we had more than enough catching up to do
Got home to an exciting parcel - I won This in a prize draw

Hope you're all dodging the rain

Nadine and I are heading up there on the 3rd of December Jo - arrive midday and leave just before 6. I figured 6 hours would be more than enough to mooch around and have lunch / drinks. Makes for a long'ish day but hey....

And then the following weekend I'm in Germany and heading to a Christmas market there

[meriad]

Wow, Di - that is lovely. I really like that - lucky you!!!!!

[Diflower]

It is gorgeous, and enormous! - Far bigger than it looks in the picture
Just perfect for snuggling under for an afternoon nap on the sofa

Lovely to win a prize di well done you will need it all this wind and rain jo I love the Xmas markets and great it's staying for a while hope you also have a good time Rita here and at home

[JoM]

Di that's so lovely!! It really does looks snuggly!

Ria, you're definitely best coming during the day and getting away before the evening. It gets so busy then, especially around the beer and food stalls near to the Council House.

Thanks for asking Di, but we were unlucky and got absolutely soaked - it suddenly came down hard and fast, and turned into freezing hail! It was pretty windy too, and no skaters on the ice, they were brushing off the surface water

We had to make a dash for Corretto's for some shelter, were lucky enough to get a table (it was packed) so sat for about an hour with hot drinks and a sandwich, and eventually it passed. By the time we left the sun was out

Your draw prize is lovely!!!! xxx
