Morning everyone!

Okay, daily news out of the way after the drunk autoincorrect elf just changed "Morning everyone" in my greeting to "Morning endometriosis!"

Is that an apt metaphorical address for some of you lot here? (If rather insensitive, as I do also recognise it to be one of the worst afflictions that can beset our dear female friends and family.)

HapPea Monday!

Happily, Stevie, I am not afflicted.

Morning, all. Coffee outside in the weak autumn sun, then in to start that work thing.

Morning all, is it Monday, days and eyesight blurring! I’m in Berwick-upon-Tweed after finishing the last site last night at nearly half seven! It would have been a spectacular drive over from Carlisle if it had have been daylight, it was fun in the dark and wet but being as tired as I was it required much volume on the stereo and heavy metal! What is it with whole towns and villages at 20mph blanket? No apron of 40 just national to 20! Is it just a Borders thing or is all of Scotland going this way?

Anyway, working down the coast to Middlesbrough today and meeting up with Christine.

Have fun al…

Morning all. Back at the coalface after a busy weekend.
Saturday I put a trampoline together for Joseph's birthday. Which was less painful than the previous 4 I have done.
Apart from the instructions were a bit skewiff. So I had to take it apart again after I had almost finished.
Yesterday Alex had another scan which showed that the placenta hasn't moved so she is being booked in for an elected C-Section.
We then had 4th Birthday party with some of his friends round in the after noon, so I've after come into the office for a rest!

Alex's has just called to say that her C-Section will either be this week or Tuesday next! As they couldn't fit her in today!!!!!!
Sh*t has just got very real! :oops:

Morning. Yesterday's rehearsal went well, so optimistic that today will go without issue, but still need to get through.

Have a good one, all

Good morning everyone, good luck Alex aka Mrs Capes with the sun-roof job. Mrs MLC came into the world the same route because she would have been a Christmas baby and the doctor wanted to go on holiday! I kid you not. Today is my third last early (plus 3 lates) then off yet again for three weeks...
