A bunch of flowers (or a nice plant) and a box of chocs sounds spot on. In European culture, it's considered basic good manners to take something for the host.

Meeeeee! That's Derek Warwick at Brands Hatch, I suspect going through the old Dingle Dell chicane...
Speaking of which, I just scored a Derek Warwick pin badge on the 'bay.

Not overpriced?

No. I actually paid less for this one than an identical badge I bought about five years ago. This way, I can keep one in the original packaging as new, and wear the other if I want. Or possibly keep it for swapsies.

Oh yes! I do not expect Chris to win, but I am so pleased that he made it to the final.

I gave up waiting for a dry spot in the weather and simply went out for a walk in the less wet part of the afternoon instead. A total of 5 1/2 miles in the gathering gloom while listening to the end of the Grand Prix and then the football. The best part was towards the end when I spend a while watching a barn owl gliding and hunting over the field next to the bridleway.
The recycling bin has been moved to the front of the house ready for emptying on Monday and it's now time for this evening's hot chocolate.

A morning spent moving my bikes and some other stuff to a new location due to seeing blue skies where I should see sheets of corrugated iron. 
Thank you Darragh 
My mum is to speak to the insurance company tomorrow to see if decrepit outbuildings are covered for storm damage. I can't afford to replace the roof myself at the moment. My brother seems to be involving himself which means I will probably never be allowed near the shed ever again as he doesn't even want me there at all as he wants everything for himself.

Forgot to mention that I had parsnip soup for supper, followed by a lovely sub roll filled with egg mayonnaise and prawns.
Madam Lexi had some fishy Felix AGAIL and a few prawns.
I am now writing Christmas cards.

States as well, never visit empty handed. My friends could always count on me for flowers, candy, and a fifth of bourbon or whisky. Or a straw-wrapped chianti.(fiasco)
