I made the mistake of dropping into Marks' food hall for a loaf today and bought a loadof stuff. At least I also remembered the loaf.

Off to finish making tea...be back in a bit

It looks like we've been really lucky. The three town around us have all had flooding. People in Webridge and Kingston have lost a lot as the water came into their homes. Kingston was on the news. I'm glad I went yesterdy and not today.

Off to do dinner for the parents.

I'm not hungry enough just yet.

 

Bon Appetit!, as they say in France.

I should be finishing Half Blood Prince. I'm off to Waterstone's later with my daughters to pick up their copies of Deathly Hallows at midnight. I have held a copy in my hand but it is locked in the cupboard at work, not to be opened till tomorrow.

off to watch CSI Miami...catch you later

I'm off to bed. There is no way I'm going to collect a book at midnight and then read it overnight.

I'm back.....can't get into CSI Miami.

 

Much prefer CSI or NCSI

Where is it cheapest?

Meg said she had heard Asda and Tesco were selling for £5, WHS said £6.. on the TV

 

.....I take it you're talking about Harry Potter

 

I'm going down to Asda at midnight...shall let you know...just hope ours has some

You should have been queueing. :lol:

I'm going my usual trip to Asda tomorrow. I hope it's not going to be swamped.

You should have been queueing. :lol:

:o do you think....is it going to be that mad

off to asda...will let you know about the queues :unsure:

They have been queueing for days at some places.

Hope you get one. :D

I'm back now with two copies of Deathly Hallows, which the girls have been reading since we got on the bus. I'm going to bed and will leave them reading till they fall asleep.

well Maidenhead flooded, at least they had the sense to build the new flats on top of the parking this time, so if it floods its only the cark park that gets it! and they only completed the huge flood overfow colvolt off the Cookham bridge the other year, that obviously didnt work then! they just dont give the rivers enough room to swell, and concrete acts like giant ponds

 

I haven't had a chance to watch the news but I've been told roads are breaking up and all sorts.

 

Is everyone OK?

 

Just phoned my parents as the river close to where they live burst its banks. They are fine and since the council cleared the drains their basement hasn't floodedb again.
