Another day of circumnavigating the M25

One of the few collective nouns I remember is crows. Today you saw a murder

Oh dear! Where are the Miss Marbles when you need them?

 

[Illaveago]

I was told once that Crows are solitary, whilst Rooks flock and that therefore "If you see a flock of Crows then they are Rooks and if you see a Rook on its own, then its a Crow"...

I can remember being told that. I haven't seen a Room around here for ages they used to be so common.

I thought I would leave the word change in as it seemed funnier. The word should be Rook .

I'm debating giving up buying yarn for lent.

That's a real tough one

I have given up swearing. It is not going well so far....

 

[Salty seadog]

Well you seem the best qualified that I know to ask going by the avatar Wol. Do they congregate much?

I got that quote wrong. I quoted myself.

Yeah I have ditched the yarn idea. Why set yourself up to fail.

I have decided to do a different type of thing until Easter.

I'm going to ride at least 3 times a week.No matter how far but I have to ride 3 times.

Sounds like a good plan! Ride to the yarn shop.....

I just about own the yarn shop.

Perhaps that's an idea for retirement.

 

[Hill Wimp]

It's interesting that the Church now tends to emphasise that Lent is not about giving things up but doing positive things.

It probably leans more to doing positive things to help others I would assume ?

My prescriptions are ready to be picked up. I wonder whether I can leave them at the pharmacy while I go off to pick up breakfast stuff and beer and collect the meds on the way back.

Oooh I like it, could it perhaps have a fabric section tool for those of us who partake in quilting?

 

[Illaveago]

I've got a spasmy back so I'm dedicating the day to moping around. If anyone cares to post pictures of flowers from your gardens to remind me of spring then I'd be very grateful.

I've just been up the garden and took some pictures, I'm sorry there's not much in bloom at the moment. The kitten rugby tackled me twice while I was out.

I've just needed a pair of mole grips to get a bottle of bleach open, my Good Lady remarked "what chance have I got if you need those to get it open".

Absolutly and an art section.

It will be a large premises to get all the lovely things in.

I love to dream.

Me too, can it also have bit in the corner that has a couple of tables and sells nice tea and cake?
