Hope you're able to access your emails soon, Julie.

Sorry to hear that Old Thatch is looking in need of attention, Eddie. :(

So do I, Anita. :)

Sounds like the person who may have bought Old Thatch doesn't like gardening! :|

A few years back I had to call the BT "helpline". Sadly the only thing they seemed to know was that I had phoned it a lot lately. Maybe if they'd sorted the problem sooner...
Recently I had many phone calls from a 0800 number. My delight when they offered me (by email) a free nuisance call blocker can easily be imagined. Minutes after setting it up the number called me- it was BT - offering their tv service! :lol:

Sad news about Old Thatch. Perhaps it's between owners? The old ones have left and the new ones not fully gotten up to speed yet? I can't believe anyone would buy such an expensive house and then let it go to rack and ruin.

Chick and I took our two grandsons to visit the Amex Stadium, Brighton and Hove Albion's football ground. We bought a few souvenirs in the shop and now the boys have given up supporting Arsenal to become staunch Seagulls fans. :D

The boys were so impressed with the Amex that they have been again today with their Dad on his day off. :D

Just working out where to go tomorrow for the day, maybe over to Hythe, then onto Exbury Gardens. I never tire of seeing Exbury Gardens, I just love it there. :)

There's always Hillsborough or the Amex, Julie. Nothing to see at the City Ground. :D
