The NEW UK Kink Thread

I thought I was working for clear skies but I think I must be doing something wrong.

Just hoping for clear skies on Friday morning for the eclipse!

oh yes! Daughter's science class have their eclipse glasses at the ready :D
 
when I was a kid we all made pin-hole cameras at school for it.

Kids these days won't be allowed pins in case they hurt themselves :rolleyes:

In fact, although I'm joking, I do believe that they can't have pins for wearing poppies in November.
 
Morning campers!! Mad fog on the way in this morning, but at least the traffic was being sensible and driving to the conditions (for once!). Sun's burning it off nicely at the moment though :)

Was off monday getting the car sorted (just tyres left to do now), so spent yesterday catching up on everything. Should have more time today.

Gianbattista, I do agree, the heelies look fun, but I don't think they go up to our sizes :( Would love to skateboard again though, but it doesn't seem to be socially acceptable at my age. However, I must confess to having the occasional ride down the driveway on my nephew's board when there's nobody looking :D
 
Morning all :)

Very thick fog here still so hopefully it will lift at some time soon.

Had the day off work yesterday for our wedding anniversary but I had a doctor's appointment first thing. It seemed more sensible to walk rather than drive while I had the luxury of time, but I decided to take a shortcut through a housing estate instead of walking the car route.

Bad mistake. I got completely lost because all the roads and houses looked identical, and then when I asked the way, the guy sent me in completely the wrong direction, so that five minutes before my appointment I was almost back home again. It was like one of those awful nightmares....

Anyway, after a panic, I rang ahead, explained I was an idiot who was going to be late and it all worked out ok in the end. More blood tests ahead though...

Hoping for a less stressful day today! :D
 
It's a beautiful day here in Bristol again, although it's a bit chilly. What about yesterday though, it was like Summer had rolled into town!

We started today with horrible cold damp fog, and now I've had to shut the blinds in my office because the sun is so bright! I'm hoping when I go out later that it's as warm as it looks :D

The question of whether I'd remain upright and without broken limbs however remains more likely in the negative. Unless I have someone either side of me like training wheels :D.

This would be me too :eek: I never even had roller skates as a kid, and my sense of balance is totally lacking. I'd be a danger to myself and everyone else around me :D
 
I've just been out and it IS as warm as it looks!! Let's hope this is the start of spring :)

Hmm, heelies in my size, eh? I can just see my wife shaking her head already... but then I never did have much sense of danger :D
 
Freezing!!! My car was frozen over this morning and although the sun is shining, it's still very cold here :D

Went for a blood test this morning - good job I'm not soft because she's made a right mess of my arm...
 
Ouch! I hate it when they do that, it doesn't take much to do a good job of it. I don't usually mark easily, but the last time I went, it took ages for the mess to fade.
 
Just had fire alarm evacuation practice!! It's lovely out there :) Might even go home early and chase the little fella around the garden for an hour :D

You should. Take it from someone who put work first when my little ones were still little and who regrets it now..:rose:
 
Yep, sounds good. I'll give it another 15 mins, then bail out :) Catch you folks tomorrow if not before!
 
Morning all :)

Sunny here but the cloud cover isn't too bad. My staff have made a pinhole telescoe thing so I'm hoping we'll all be able to have a look at the eclipse in around an hour's time :D

Hope everyone has a good Friday - looking forward to the weekend x
 
Morning all. It's looking a bit cloudy here at the moment, so I don't know how much we'll get to see. It's a pity Ed doesn't still work here, for the last one, he rigged up a contraption of mirrors and pinhole box, and got it projected on the office wall :) As for the animals, I'm sure they're aware of something; I went out a few mins ago, and I'm not sure if it's just because I know, but the atmosphere does feel 'different' somehow.

Lally, I'm aching this morning after getting home early and spending an hour or so playing chasing each other around the garden, bouncing on the trampoline, hiding in the tents, and jumping up and down on daddy!! Wouldn't trade days like that for the world :D

No firm plans for the weekend yet, just playing it by ear.

Glad you had a good time, even if you're suffering today!!

The eclipse is well underway here - we've all had a look through the viewer and it's fascinating.

However, my staff are threatening pagan rituals later involving them stripping off and dancing round a fire.......I think I'll stay in my office for that one...
 
Quite dusky-ish and strangely quiet here at the moment, Got a good view though, we’ve got a fair bit of cloud cover, so it’s filtering it nicely. One of the girls on reception is really buzzing over it all, she's too young to remember the last one, and is totally fascinated.

Hmm, pagan rituals and dancing naked around the fire, eh? That sounds better than than my bacon sandwich :D
