So, you thought having clocks set to a time which literally no-one else in the world was using would be useful. And the reasoning.........you get to change each clock twice, not once....

OK......

To be fair, it could be the future. Southern parts of the UK would prefer to stay with British Summer Time but Scotland, with its shorter winter days, wants to stay with the clocks back and forwards routine. Scottish border time could be a useful compromise. If the Brits still do compromise....

Can't help you with that, but 'The Hungarian Rhapsodies' are Liszted music..

Today hasn't gone to plan. By the time I'd got home it was 2:30am, and had to get up to check my sons bloods as he had a few 'vodka and cokes'. Happy to report his levels were great (we have a Libre sensor, but also an additional sensor that sits on top and sends the resulsto his phone, then automatically updates a web site. I can log in from anywhere, so just got up and logged in from my phone. Down side is my head is spinning, so called off the MTB ride with mates.

Fell out of bed about 9am and have been doing a few jobs outside.

My 17y/o lad called me at 0530 for a chat...

Compromise? With the Scots?

OK, if they'd not taken the Calcutta Cup we might be a bit more conciliatory .......

Mine came from the animal shelter. Although the bigger shaggier ones hair is so often shedding that I've threatened to spin it into yarn.

Storm total 8 inches of snow, 60 F and rain in the forecast for to-morrow.
We were going to start a pool as to when the first severe weather will hit us.
I'm sure Paddy Power can provide odds.

Should have knitted a dachshund and saved some wool on the legs.

What wool were you using? Single balls of wool, frequently appear on BayE or Craftsy or Etsy.

If you knitted a sheep you'd get lots of wool from that.

We have a new furry addition to the family, after losing our 1 year old Ragdoll to a farkin car driver.... He's a moggie, pale ginger tom, but a rescue. Lovely little cat, but is used to eating scraps. Picked him up from a foster home today. Bit fussy with cat food, but sits patiently next to you when you have human food. He will eat veg. We will slowly move into dry and wet cat food again.

No pics yet, but is a lovely little chap, rather thin. Our old big cat is hacked off again.... We will get another Raggie at some point.
