  • The times- they are a-changing!!!

    Well tonight- 'our time' it was still very light at 6.45pm- sun shining- all 'feel good factor' after a thunderstorm of hail!!!

    Set me thinking ( well- beats ironing eh???)
    This time last month we were all packed ready to sail to UK to pack up our house. ( seems like 2 weeks ago!!)

    So - time difference 'feel' - doesn't feel like,that in 4 weeks time, it'll be that light at 7.40pm!!

    EXCEPT..in 4 weeks- the clocks go forwards by an hour!!!..that'll mean in 4 weeks it'll be bright daylight at 8.45pm!!!...that's nearly bedtime- and there's still snow outside!!!!
    ( wonders when I'm going to get used to this hour difference!!!

    right- 8.45pm here- and I'm off to bed!!..sad or what????

    bon nuit peeps!!! xx

              I've even discovered jango.com in a bid to listen to the tune while I'm at work (where sites like youtube are blocked).

                  Not usually, but the boss is on holiday and no-one else is in our 4-desk office, so I just closed the door and put Dylan on.

                  P.S. This is the first time I've been referred to as "Lucky turf", not sure but I think I'm going to take it as a compliment

                    I wish the 'times were a changing' here, it has been staying light until around 5.30 this week except when it's been raining when it's gone dark about 4pm!
                    Into every life a little rain must fall.

                          It also isn't the word that first popped into my head.
