 I bet GT's dug didn't have a harness with krabs and a belay device.... not a proper mountaineering dug!

 It's a lab, Beth, not a collie!! So... Not that I've ever met the guy, but the one and only interaction with him via email didn't show he had much grasp of the issues.

 I know labs! Lovable but essentially thick! Now, if you're placing a certain outdoors journalist at a relative point on the IQ scale to a lovable but essentially thick dog.....
|
|
Would I do such a thing?!

The bloke in the chippy was asking after you last night, Beth. Thought you were my sister  . I told him we'd gone backpacking, and we agreed it was a good thing it had been last weekend and not this one!

Me thinks this weekend would have been grim. Better sister than anything else!

This is entertaining - I'm just watching The Sarah Jane Adventures on BBC1 and it's all filmed round Penarth and the Vale of Glamorgan. They were just in Sully Terrace. I'm waiting to see the house opposite me, which was used for filming at one point.

Tipping down, gutters overflowing, thunder and lightening. It must be the summer!

Tennis club committee meeting. Now, surely a tennis club committee meeting will finish by 9 so we can all run off to watch / listen / read the rest of Andy Murray's match..... catch you later.

 Evening All, What another fantastic day in the sunny Highlands  We went up to Blackwater Reservoir via the scenic side of the river and were naughty people by crossing the dam to get back via the conduit. We did meet up with ptc* but it was in the Blackwater Bunkhouse carpark with jyc* and hlly* Amazingly the midges weren't too much of a problem due to a couple of cold nights Now sitting at home biting nails listening to the Murray Nidal match

I was just going to ask where the Murray fan club had got to! Just got back from the committee meeting - there's trouble at tennis club, so the meeting took an awful long time. Glad you had a good day anyway, TBW.

Trouble at t'tennis club? . Chapman: Trouble at mill.
Cleveland: Oh no - what kind of trouble?
Chapman: One on't cross beams gone owt askew on treadle.
Cleveland: Pardon?
Chapman: One on't cross beams gone owt askew on treadle.
Cleveland: I don't understand what you're saying.
Chapman: [slightly irritatedly and with exaggeratedly clear accent] One of the cross beams has gone out askew on the treadle.
Cleveland: Well what on earth does that mean?
Chapman: *I* don't know - Mr Wentworth just told me to come in here and say that there was trouble at the mill, that's all - I didn't expect a kind of Spanish Inquisition.
