Stormy Weather.

Don't know why
There's no sun up in the sky

Stormy weather
Since my gal and I ain't together
Keeps raining all the time.

Actually, that's not the case for Robert.

Congratulations Rob.
Engaged!

* * *

I doubt that Peter will be out for a walk today. He'll probably be ringing Lynn and asking for a cup of tea.

Why can't the lazy bugger make it himself?

Maybe he's too busy writing blog posts?

NO!

Well, it might be a good day for getting some practice done. 

I'll leave you there.

Stay dry.

Pretty quiet around here today.

 Nothing new from Peter.

Robert hasn't posted because he's too busy up in Cricket Land. Hey, it's not like he's getting engaged, or something!

My daughter is staying with us tonight, so I'm on dinner preparation.

Shelley and Steph are both vegetarians, so I obviously will not be preparing meat tonight.

"Phew! I'm safe."

I've done 30 minutes of practice today and will endeavour to do more this evening.

Monday tomorrow. Enjoy your evening, and sin if you feel the need.*

Ciao tutti.

* Hey, it didn't bother Brother Benedict!

10.

My grandson, Henry, is ten months old today.  Happy ten months, Henry! His big brother will be 3 at the end of next month. The boys are getting old!

That last post of Peter's was a good one. Bloody scooters!

No post from Robert in two days. Let's hope that he's not sinning up in Cricket Town.

Some people around here are calling me Itchy Richie. My meds have had the side effect of giving me lots of skin rashes and I spend a lot of time scratching. It has gone on for bloody months. It adds an extra challenge to playing unaccompanied solo violin. I guess I need to get some sort of rhythm into the scratching.

We're supposed to be getting some bad weather today. I did get the back lawn cut yesterday, so that's a plus.

Robert's God, I'd love a coffee right now. You know what follows me drinking coffee in the morning. I'll think about it. 

[Fully aware of the likely consequences, Richard (of RBB) goes and makes a coffee.]

Tastes good.

[Countdown time]

Well, that's it from me for this morning.

Ciao.

Exiting stuff!

 And I should know because I exited pretty damn quickly.

Finally, a new post from The Curmudgeon.

The new set up looks like this.

Notice TC's new camouflage floor mat. 

The rest of the post is just about him trying to get his computer working properly.

Boy, oh boy, what a post!

Or, as I should say, "What? A post?"

Robert's off, probably sinning (well, it is Valentine's Day) up in Cricket Town. 

So, not much happening around here.

I'm off. No, I'm not off to buy a camouflage computer chair floor mat. 

Enjoy your Valentine's Day. Oh, and fornicate if you want to.

Ciao.

The latest around the blogs.

 I got a message last night that Peter was in a bar, somewhere close to parliament, getting pissed. I assume that's why there is no new blog post, even though he has a new computer chair. God, it cost him so much to get rid of the old chair that I wonder how he can afford to spend money on booze.

"Shish! Ish shill have a shfew bob."

Robert is off to Cricket Town again to celebrate Valentine's Day with his girlfriend. Let's just hope that they don't get too excited.

"No! That would be a sin!"

Today is black Friday - Friday the Thirteenth.

It certainly looks quite dark, weather wise, outside this morning. I'm hoping to get our back lawn cut, though it's really no big deal.

Hang on! It's pissing down. Cutting the back lawn is postponed.

I'm aiming to get some quality violin practice done today. Obviously, that will involve my 10 unaccompanied tunes. I want to really get inside the chord progressions.

I also want to work on the tunes, a part that can get neglected.

I guess that I'll have more time, now that the lawn cutting has been cancelled.

Well, that's it from me. I hope you have a good Friday 13th.

Ciao e buonafortuna.

Soloman.

 

Robert mentioned Soloman in his latest post and I thought he was talking about me! The guy who practises 10 unaccompanied violin solos on a regular basis. I was tempted to start referring to myself as Soloman.

Then I noticed that he'd made a spelling mistake.

He was actually talking about a guy named Solomon - S o l o m O n.

Solomon, a guy who never played the violin.

That hurt!

I wish he'd take more care with his spelling.

On top of that, Peter informs us that he wants to get rid of one of his computer chairs.

"Two chairs for Peter." just does not work!

I'm a sad guy this morning. I might as well just wander off and do some violin practice.

Un po' più tardi.

Three Chairs!

 

Just a quick post to remind you that Peter will be posting today.

"My new computer chair arrived today. I assembled it and have positioned it in the study. Lynn was impressed and made me a cup of tea. She came down from the top floor and made my tea on the middle floor, then she brought it down to the ground floor. That's enough to make me want to write a post."

Oh, and Robert is back too with a post about sewerage and sin.

"Have fun but don't sin..." For it is from within that evil intentions emerge: Sewerage problems, bloody cycle lanes and all the rest." Mark 7:14"

Well, I'd say that those two old boys have blog posting covered today, so I'm off to work. I'll go in early and do some violin practice before the students arrive. 

Ciao tutti.
