Yippee it rained here all night and yes the waterbutts are overflowing,we were getting pretty darn desperate,been dry most of today but gor blimey its turned very cold !!you are right tho,never satisfied,lol.......

I just love the picture you have painted with that p### cow LOL
We had a dose of that a week or so ago...that cow sure gets around a bit. Never mind...just think how much good it will be doing....as long as it gets time to soak into the parched ground. Then of course - you will probably have to start mowing the grass again...HA HA !!
7 Oct, 2009
Just had to go out in it and empty out the newly planted pot of bulbs as it was swimming in it. Must check the drainage when the rain stops! At least my lawn feed will be well watered in.......or will it be washd away? LOL

Can't say I have Dotty D2!!! I usually say it's pisitively possing down!!!! and it is here now. Crazy weather we're having aren't we. In fact, I've just posted a short blog on the subject!
7 Oct, 2009
The only rain here was today - but a nice lot! The garden sure needed it. At least I can put the hose away! :-))
7 Oct, 2009

7 Oct, 2009
Must be all that grass they eat, turns to water Sandra. Has the same effect on me when I eat lots of veggies! lol
7 Oct, 2009
lol lily, maybe thats it then ;o)
7 Oct, 2009
Lily I thought you were going to say "when I eat lots of grass"
Sanbaz .......Yes where does it all come from I know where it all goes to.......lol
7 Oct, 2009
lol dotty
7 Oct, 2009
Well.....yes....that does too! Saves getting the lawn mower out. lol
7 Oct, 2009
If I had 8 stomachs think of the extra beer room ..so guess I can well imagine what it would be like .. I ve even heard cows blamed for global warming due to the amount of methane they pass lol
7 Oct, 2009
lol ray, never thought of the gas they pass hehehe
7 Oct, 2009
Nor had I Sandra but then saw a programme about those forest clearances in tropical places by farmers for cattle and some boffin had worked out the loss of trees and extra cows combined to increase emissions.
Well no scientist but how many years did he study for before he concluded more cows = more emissions ?
7 Oct, 2009
I even heard on one programme that they were going to pass a law limiting the number of cows a farmer could keep because of these "emissions".....Next thing you know they will be taxing baked beans....;>>))))

Oh no better start saving now then Az ..would have cost a fortune to film Blazing Saddles ..remember them around the camp fire ..crass and vulgar but oh so funny ..
7 Oct, 2009
yes that film was very funny, how they got away with some of the scenes and lines i dont know lol
7 Oct, 2009
The mind boggles.....I guess I must have led a sheltered life - or just missed that one!!
7 Oct, 2009

7 Oct, 2009

7 Oct, 2009
If you search blazing saddles beans Az you ll see a clip available on Youtube ..you ll wish you never mentioned them lol
7 Oct, 2009
My education is now complete, BB Ha Ha !!!
Methinks all that methane should be harnessed.....LOL LOL
7 Oct, 2009
I must go and see......I may be a little while!!!!
7 Oct, 2009
Its amazing how conversations go on this site. I'd never thought of starting a topic about rain and ending up with Blazing Saddles .Absolutely brilliant .
We still had very little rain in Norfolk by the way grass is still brown ....any back to blazing saddles..........LOL
8 Oct, 2009
can you please send some more this way... pretty please?
we had some but not enough for it to make a major difference
x x x
8 Oct, 2009
All this talk of Blazing Saddles and beans...reminds me of the reason my father always referred to one of our elderly labradors.... way-back-when ...as Heinz-Hound! LOL
PS Beautiful day up here - no rain - just FROST....eek!
Minus two just inland first thing this morning...and zero at the back door at 6am. What sort of winter are we in for I wonder.
8 Oct, 2009
Beautiful day here, husband cut grass and edged,(have to admit he does a good job, might as well keep him on!!) As for the winter Alz you can have the winter......sorry, I dont want one if it is like last year.
8 Oct, 2009
Thank you DD...actually it has been beautiful but COLD...definitely a two-fleece day!! Got a lot done though - and my "Handy-Sandy" (lol) arrived - TG -and we got the trailer emptied - and half filled again! Oh well - that's Autumn for you.
8 Oct, 2009
Can I have my two weeks of summer back please? Its perishing up here! But at least its not raining for once!! Couldnt even get the grass cut tho! Had to get the washing out before the weather changes again!
8 Oct, 2009
Mad if you will live up North what can you expect girl?
8 Oct, 2009
I like that expression DD! Like the cheese - vache qui rit? it's nice to have a wee bit of rain thou haha!
9 Oct, 2009
I'd move south in a heartbeat, preferably to somewhere like Australia! Or the South of France would do nicely!
10 Oct, 2009
mais oui......
the South of France........
11 Oct, 2009
Ca serait absolument parfait!
11 Oct, 2009
Never herd the saying Pis--- cow before but I see what you meen LOL
18 Oct, 2009
Donnah the French have all sorts of lovely expressions.....believe me!!
21 Oct, 2009
I've made quite a few embarrassing mistakes by translating English to French too literally! Colloquial french is something else! LOL!
21 Oct, 2009
And so amusing too.........
24 Oct, 2009
Oh yes! For my then French boyfriend & his mates, it was hilarious! LOL!
24 Oct, 2009
Ah oui le Francais .. my schoolboy french asked for the pissoire and I was directed to a toilet where a lady asked for a franc ..thought it a little unusual that only ladies seemed to be using it .
Some guy walked in and asked for the gents she replied in perfect english it was next door !
25 Oct, 2009
Lol! Mine was more embarrassing than that, I was having what I thought was a perfectly polite & sensible conversation with my boyfriend &his flatmate & the flatmate went into fits of the giggles, & Flavien told me not to talk dirty in front of his friends! I'm not telling you what I'd inadvertently said!LOL!
25 Oct, 2009
You cant leave it there Mp ! Like telling half a joke ...no danger of me offending anyone in a foreign language seem to manage pretty well in English ..
26 Oct, 2009
I have to! Its unprintable! :~((
26 Oct, 2009
OMG well the mind boggles .. I d ask you to pm me but sounds too hot for that lol !
26 Oct, 2009
Lol! It is!! And I'd never met the guy before!! :~{{{
