Sounds excitingMorning All.
My dol is still in the drums, but things will improve I am sure.
Ordered some "bike-parts" to have a mess around with (will involve lathe work).
Have a great day!
Yes - based on a true story.
I might have a read…
I know what a burn is me old Scotty mate!!Yup ive taken a couple of weeks off so messing about at the house n garage. I intended to get as much of the garage roof slated
as possible but the weather has been shocking. Got a few rows on late today nowt on the landy as my mate turned up to help me
which was superb as the first 3 rows were sketchy to say the least I had to go fishing for my rule as it ended up in the burn (stream) translated for oor stan.
But do you know what one is called in Wiltshire?
Oops! it cannot be "mon" and "petite". WL may be of the feminine gender but the word "papillon" is not.
Just as you are "une personne".
(Correction by tomoz or DT will follow.)
Woke up to an autumnal morning, but the sun has just come out so we will be off picking the plums, the last of the fruit for this year.
Phew!
Then that will be getting made into jam.
We are running out of surfaces to put jars of jam on. Tops of both wardrobes in the guest bedrooms are already full!
Have a good day folks!

Looks like the ladies in your life are like London buses.Mornin

Goin out for breakfast with g/grand daughter for a treat
New neighbour moving in, slim and blonde and on her own
Stay lucky all
None for a while then two come along at once!!
Hmmm!
"Decisions, decisions"
"In British superstition Magpies are natures fortune tellers, who hasn’t hear the old rhyme which attributes a different outcome to the number of magpies spotted, traditionally it began “One for sorrow, two for mirth, three for a funeral, four for a birth”, this has been adapted with time and now we more commonly say “two for joy, three for a girl, four for a boy” and this goes up to ten ending with the rather more cryptic “ten for a bird you must not miss”.Mornin

A single magpie is a portent of bad luck but this can be offset by asking the bird “Morning Mr Magpie – how’s your lady wife today?” which is rather fitting as once paired magpies mate for life. Alternatively it’s possible to ward off ill fortune by imitating the bird, vigorous arm flapping is said to achieve the desired result. "
Good thing you didn't see just one!!!
BourneBut do you know what one is called in Wiltshire?
And in me native norf east, Beck.
Maybe my butterfly identifies as something else….?!?Oops! it cannot be "mon" and "petite". WL may be of the feminine gender but the word "papillon" is not.

Nope. "Leat" as in Longleat.
Bourne is or was used a little bit but not especially in Witshire and led to Tyburn and places like it, and does derive from "burn".
Bourne tends more to be used for border, boundary, edge.
As I live close to Bournemouth this is of a bit interest maybe to others from the area.
"The Bourne Stream flows for approximately 7km from the outskirts of Canford Heath in Poole, to the bathing beach at Bournemouth Pier. It is formed of two main tributaries, the total length of waterway being 13.2km."
Note it has to be called the "Bourne Stream " so a bit silly as that would translate into the "stream stream"

And in my native Yorkshire too.
Maybe. Perhaps you'd like to try "ma papillone" but I am not sure that exists!
No, there is no special word, you are stuck with the masculine version!!
