Morning All :-D <3

Dull and gloomy here and a bit cooler too :-(

They have been banging on about Star Wars this morning, so I thought I would jump on the bandwagon, even though I have never seen one of those films :-)

Have a good day Everyone <3 <3

Morning Maddie, Von, Joy, Lovely Elizabeth & Kath <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D

Very dull here too with dampness in the air :-( Typical BH weather :-0

I too haven't seen any Star Wars films but did you know

Credit for that pun goes to England’s conservative party, the Tories, after Margaret Thatcher won the election to become the first female prime minister of the United Kingdom, on May 4, 1979. The group took out a newspaper ad that stated, “May the Fourth be with you, Maggie. Congratulations,”
:-D :-D :-D

Have a good day <3 <3

Good morning everyone :-) <3

Here's another one who hasn't seen any of the films, but did know it is Star Wars Day.

A dull dry start to the day with a haze over the distant hill, but since then, we have had brilliant sunshine.
Now, it's in an undecided time, so who knows what the day will bring.

Nothing planned except to send a couple of e mails and think about replenishing the food supplies.
Daughter has been inventive with store cupboard items plus a few fresh ingredients, but we need to widen our horizons now :-)

I was going to add that pun was not invented by me. They have been repeating it on the radio and tv all morning! :-0 :-0

Morning Gwyn & Fly <3 <3 :-D :-D

I didn't mean to imply that you were taking credit for the pun Maddie :-0 ;-) :-D :-D. This being the Learning Thread I thought I'd mention when and why it was first used....now of course it is known as Star Wars Day :-D :-D :-D

Well, it stayed fine and bright all day with no sign of the possible showers we were perhaps going to get.

Food stocks have been replenished, so all is looking good. :-)
