It looks to be a wonderful weekend so now you're in through the door (mind that step), welcome :-6

Hello Bryan Mawr, Oo, that will be nice to have a sunny weekend, hope so, as my garden looks like it could do with some TLC.

Yes I will be careful when I come in here tomorrow, I will be careful of the step.:wah:

Big place, Lancashire. I used to live there a while back, just short of t'clough by Townsend Fold, near an appallingly polluted stretch of the Irwell into which the local slaughterhouse used to hose its cobbles once a week. Times may, I admit, have changed. And the husband of a second cousin still, last I heard, turns out for the Britannia Coconut Dancers, Britannia Mills being where my grandfather emigrated from after the war.

Hello Spot

I live in Bromley Cross, just north west of Greater Manchester, a nice village it is, fairly quiet too.

I've been here just around 6 years now, formerly living and born in Southampton in Hampshire.

Less than ten miles away then, through Ramsbottom. I expect you can see the moors from where you are. Is there still a shop in a place like that, or do people have to use cars now?

Littlelou · Post by **Littlelou** » Sat Jul 23, 2011 7:05 am

Yes there is a lovely view of the moors on a clear day, I have some photo's I could show when I find the place to put them, views from the back of my home, not sure now if they show the moors but a distance photo all the same.

There are a few shops but still a trek, so mainly I do online shopping, or go into the town.

Oh dear!..I have just found the 'New Posts' button, pressed it and for many of the posts it says 'Littlelou - Littlelou - Littlelou....

I guess I am talking a bit too much!...:yh_blush

It's a quiet weekend in a quiet month in a low-post-volume year on the day we changed server accounts, by all means fling in all you want. The laggards will catch up eventually.

I just felt very embarrassed when I saw all my name, then I thought I wonder if the 9 registered Members and the 727 guests (that is a lot of guests):-3 are wishing I would be quiet

it goes to prove many people are here and reading, shame they do not want to join in.

Peoples choice of course, and not my place to drag anyone in!..

The counts are how many IP addresses called at least one page of the forum from the server during the last three hours. Some of those enumerated as guests are indexing spiders, some are search referrals to an old thread which discusses a topic the guest was looking for. Only a minority will denote a conscious mind browsing on our latest posts. Anyone, of course, is welcome to register if they've arrived by way of a search result. I've no idea what proportion of our members got here that way, I certainly didn't.

OK OK Nag nag nag......you shamed me into posting.....and welcome.

I am a reader, sometime poster, but I agree we all should post more including myself, except from some who should never utter another word(No names no pack drill)

hello and welcome from Canada!:-6

This weekend is hot, hot, hot, 40C.

tis okay though, another month and summer is over.

Hello and Thankyou Spot for explaining about the amount of guests, I sort of envisaged many sat with their cup of tea and just reading away..:-3:wah:

Hello Bruv, Ooo, me is not a nagger :wah: just an observation, I am known to be fairly quiet in life

so maybe I got a bit carried away in my chatter.

Hello Odie, shame only another month to go until the end of your summer, I will send some sunshine your way when more arrives here..:-6

Odie · Post by **Odie** » Sat Jul 23, 2011 11:42 am

doesn't your summer end after August?

Littlelou · Post by **Littlelou** » Sat Jul 23, 2011 11:46 am

I am hoping it will carry on through until at least september, I can still though remember a time on christmas day, several years ago now, it was like a summers day then, so there is hope!.:-6

there's always hope, by September it can be quite nice here, just feels like summer is over as the leaves start to fall.

I like Autumn, it's just so fresh..

Spring is lovely too seeing all the leaves coming back on the trees, and lots of nature coming back to life again.

You can come and rake all my leaves in Autumn!:yh_rotfl

spring is the best season to me, everything in the garden starts to wake up.

Littlelou · Post by **Littlelou** » Sat Jul 23, 2011 5:17 pm

Ok, I will do yours first

then start on my garden, at times there are more leaves than what were on my trees it seems. :wah:

Thankyou for the lovely gifts of balloons and burger..:yh_hugs

oh your quite welcome!

last year for some reason I had more leaves than ever, so this year I'm gonna tell my neighbor to clean up his leaves on my property!:yh_rotfl

you have a long journey from the UK to Canada to rake leaves, best get a start on it:wah:

Littlelou · Post by **Littlelou** » Sun Jul 24, 2011 12:30 am

Oh yes, that is a good idea Odie, infact I will ask the building at the back of my garden to come and collect the leaves that gather in mine from there, they have about 5 trees which of course the leaves seem to appear to like falling in my garden, more than in the fields, I must find their phone number!.:-3

Now come to think of it, yes it is a long way to travel, maybe if I attach one of the balloons you kindly sent to me to my collar, and I do swimming strokes to guide me along, I may get there to your home just before Autumn..:wah:

Hello and Welcome Littlelou, not a summer's day here today, overcast with quite a breeze. Typical weather we get as soon as the children break up from school :wah:

Littlelou · Post by **Littlelou** » Sun Jul 24, 2011 7:01 am

Hello Betty Boop, love the name, oh I wanted to be her when I was little.:wah:

Hope the sunshine has come now there for you, it's here, still windy though but ideal for the washing dancing on the line..

My Auntie lived in Devon many years ago, in Paignton.
