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!

Re: What Are You Doing Now?
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...Julie2owlsdene wrote:I'm just calling BT for their rubbish internet on emails. I've not been able to get to my emails for 2 days now! They're useless!!!!
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!

Re: What Are You Doing Now?
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.

Re: What Are You Doing Now?
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.

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

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.Julie2owlsdene wrote: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.
