Hmm, the sun is shining and it's like a summer's day outside. Just been to the park to enjoy the warmth (while it's still a novelty) and watch Springtime unfold around me.
The trees are slowly starting to bud, with little flecks of green appearing on the branches and the air is alive with the scents of early blooms.
Just three weeks ago it was snowing hard....
All is now right with the world :-)
-
And it's FRIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIDAAAAAAAAAAAYYY!
:-D
-
PMC, I'll have some of what you're smoking :-D
-
It's grey, drizzly and below 10 degrees....
Humbug!
-
It's grey and overcast here, but it's FFFFRRRRRRRIIIIIIIIIIDDDDDDDAAAAAAYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!!!
:pint: :pint: :pint: :pint: :pint: :pint: :pint:

It's so perfect today, I wish I could put it in a bottle and live there.
-
Only if that bottle contains beer.
-
Spring is definately here. I just walked a few miles doing some errands today and I actually felt too hot!
The trees are starting to bloom, the sunlight is mellow and warm. Great :-)
Oh, and it's Friday (of course)!

Day of Frigg! :-)

@Bloodline:
You're thinking about Maligree's Wonderful Garden from Sourcery by Terry Pratchett?

I looked out my window this morning and saw lots of yellow/white things in the grass area infront of our house.
"I though ok what the hell have they dumped this time" before I realised it was actually the daffodils!

Things (http://www.tarotbyvolmarr.com/bookofshadows/asatrutfridayfreyjafreyr1.html) to do on a friday. :-D
-
Hmmm...
"Blessing of Odhroerir"
You just want us to get drunk in your honour :-P
-
Of course, the joy of Spring has been tempered somewhat by receiving this years feckin' Council Tax Bill :-(

Yes, we all know Friday gives you the horn ;-)*
*of course I have no actual idea what he really said as it did not include the word paj ;-)

I was pleasantly surprised that mine didn't go up that much from last year.
Having said that, a hundred and forty odd quid a month, for a single person is fahking outrageous!
In my opinion. :-P

I thought I might just send them several pints of my blood instead...

:lol:
It means:
Hail Thee, Frej, I raise my horn to your glory!
Anyway,
Time to get some mead!
Goodnight!

Maybe... I always get Terry Pratchett, Douglas Adams, Rob Grant and Doug Naylor mixed up :crazy:

Hmmmmm...when I first saw this thread title, I immediately thought it was about Blobzie...
...but on closer inspection I saw it was about George.
Of course, one could argue that the little princess in georgette could be gorgeous, but where would that leave George on a Friday such as this?
:-P

I'm only £23 a month and I'm in a 5-person 3-bedroomed house with Siouxsie.
Mind you, she's a student so she's exempt (which means I get 25% discount for "single person") and I'm on incapacity benefit :-D

We're on £113 IIRC, which isn't bad for London.

Funny you should say that, my g/f is called georgina...

8-)
Edit: does she wear georgette, and if so, does she wear it on a Friday?

Bloody nora. The price of living in Glasgow astonishes me.
Still, at least the nice weather has arrived. Think I'll go for a walk.

You did read the rest of the post that explains kinda why it's so low? ;-)
But yeah Glasgow will be more expensive than crappy old Dundee :-D

I was under the impression that the council paid you to live in Dundee... now I know they do ;-)

Where's the :flatcap_and_whippet: smiley when you need it?
Actually, who the hell was Nora, anyway? And how did she become an expletive? :-D

She was last seen eloping to Gretna with Gordon Bennet. :-)

:roflmao:

Bloody Nora is such an "old blokes playing dominoes in the corner of the pub and chatting about their woes" kind of remark.
Reminds me of my old local, where a pair of old guys basically spent all their time (and pension money, one expects) doing just that.
Occasionally you'd just hear one come out with "Blooooody Norrrra!". Usually when talking about the activity of the local chavs ;-)
Pretty restrained, really :-D

@Karlos:
Sounds like the boozer called 'Purgatory' from my weird dream. :pint:
-
I wouldn't say the place was that bad, although I hear it went downhill a lot in the last few years.
