In May last year I locked my car keys in my car while in Cheddar on one of the Bank Holiday Mondays.
How did I manage it?...
... I don't have central locking and the boot has to be unlocked manually. I unlocked the boot and absent mindedly put my keys into my fleece pocket before putting the fleece into the boot and shutting the boot - none of the doors had been unlocked before doing so = oops.
After attempts to pick a lock and to prise the doors open there really was no choice but to break the glass in one of the small rear windows (chosen to cause smallest damage) with the help of a guy who was parked nearby who had a mallet and a towel to make the glass breaking safer - because, of course, when your car is fully locked you can't access your stuff either, can you!
Since then I seem to check where my keys are far too often! -
I voted mediocre, but wanting a more weather-orientated word in the poll - unsettled!

AH ; I reckon you should post that in the Moaning Thread .
I tend to skim the Model Thread looking at the poster's names and will only read a post if it's by someone I deem to be knowledgeable!

Stunning shots Katie! Bringing back many memories here .
-
LOL Katie, brings back memories of when my bro worked in a hotel there. We went down to the beach one stormy night and the waves were awesome .
-
Found a few grey hairs myself lately , just little ones by my ears :lol: .
Turn 30 too, in Feb.
Don't worry L, it's only a number!
-
Katie, the title made me think it was gonna be a funny about your son :lol: .
-
Yep. I discovered the art, or lack of art, of driving in flip flops last summer .
Apparantly, driving bare footed is illegal - or I'm gullible to what someone told me.

I don't know, 25 upstairs and 25 downstairs :lol: .

You could have popped in and said hello on your way from BOA to Warminster.
Actually, on 2nd thoughts, not with 50 kids in tow :lol: .
BOA is gorgeous isn't it, and Warminster park definitely underrated.

Stunning shots! It looks amazing hanging over the city skyscrapers.

Whatever the state of the waterway (whether as it is now or with an added feature of your
choice), you can be darned sure that any children you are blessed with will explore it regardless!
IMO it would probably be more dangerous as it is now (seems very open and fall-in-able) than
with an added feature. Depends what you're thinking of course.

L, did you actually set up the picture just for the competition.
And, if so, was it Em's or your idea? :lol:
Well done to her!

Come on you Boks. South Africa have a real chance to win their second series in a few weeks against Pakistan. Two wickets down, but one of them is Harris and only 125 to get. We can do it...
The pitch they're playing on is shocking KY, I've never seen anything like it! To have no innings over 200 in a test match is just wrong. If Pakistan strike early then it's game on, good to see Smith back on form though.
Heck, on current form England would be lucky to make 50 all out on that pitch :lol: .

After about 20 mins (by which time we should have been on a bus to our pals' for steak pie and roast tatties) - we went downstairs and out of the front door for a smoke.
A wise move at that stage of proceedings .
He chapped the door next-door (who was out taking his bike round to his mate's) and stuck his probe throught the letterbox - and was a bit concerend about the methane readings:lol: Sure it wasn't too many sprouts etc?

You're lucky it's only backwards :wacko: .

So had a sip of water, and off I went.
I'd advise you to have at least a glass of water Chris, not just a 'sip'. I usually only drink water, orange juice or tea. 1st thing is always a glass of water to (re)hydrate me after the night-time.
Keep up your determination, I know how hard it is after my brother's attempts to quit, and the fact you've binned the remaining fags from that pack is a real forward step!

Hey Katie did you like Sidmouth? You'll have to go back in the summer to check out the gardens and the quality ice cream shop .
I remember being there in stormy weather a few times. Also one year, when my brother was working in a hotel, they actually had boulders from the sea defence thingys washed up on the promenade :blink: .
As for Cameron Diaz hair, mmm, there's certainly something about Mary!

I think I've still got the special paper that our local paper did. Maybe I should scan some of it and post it on net weather.
That would be very interesting if you could, thanks Pooksly.
A good personal account you've written there.

What about some photos of her dancing?
How about some photos of SR dancing .
Brilliant Em! Well done !

I wish to report that the tiles are missing from the outside toilet roof. I
think it was bad wind the other night that blew them off.
:lol:

Beautiful , thanks for sharing.
-

on the right hand side.
What did/does it say?

You had fun then?
