Raining!?? Damn!

Remind me to look at the jetstream map before opening my trap about it getting better than 8/10! According to that, the jetstream is getting worse by the minute.....& it's right 'cos I'm down to 7/10!! DAMN!!:mad2: :sad: BTW I have some nice smoked cheddar!?

raining very hard, has stopped now. littlest "princess in training" thought it would be funny to call out for daddy at 3am . grumbling to myself, down i go and get greeted by a 2 1/2 yr old's beautiful smile, a little hand patting her pillow. i place my head next to her on her pillow, shes says "wuv you" points to the door and says "bye bye, wuv you"

nothing wrong, but i didn't return to the bedroom grumbling, just feeling very chirpy!!!!

now i can't sleep or use my scope, might have to start cutting the base board for the dob driver!!!
