Barnfred 55's latest activity

The TV coverage is pretty poor. But they literally have full live coverage of the 5 biggest stages from 1.30 onwards over the 3 days on IPLAYER. I honestly don't think you'll get better free coverage of any other music festival anywhere in the...

Morning all. Today is a first for me. A breakfast date. Seeing friends who got back from a cruise last night and they wanted to catch up before I set off for Ambleside. I missed them on my last 2 visits. Forecast not great for the Lakes but...

That's good news about Matt mate. Hope it works out for him.

I have to share the good news ,you all know about my son ,ADHD Asberger's and PTSD ,well ,he has been doing this game for a company who will launch a platform similar to Google Chrome ( If I have it correctly !) Now he has been called to an...

Good morning all on the dismal day here ,I hope all are well and have a fine day today . Great to hear Garry is soon to be gallopping @Val P, Nice to see Pete-the fridge -blue is back on track ,let's hope @blueloon has recovered from the...

One of the many lovely things about Finland is that doctors are still allowed pure alchohol ,I think one kilo ,that is not a typo ! My BIL used to give it to us to make liquors then come back to drink them .

Morning everybody, a slow build up of temperature forecast today before it gets roasting on Monday. I hope you all slept well. The fridge freezer arrived yesterday and is doing a wonderful job, so we can stop throwing food and milk away. Anyway...

Haha. I missed that. Spending too much attention on the photo.😀 Edit. 44% ABV gets the Fred seal of approval. 👍

Haha, definitely a quiz. Clue : the answer is in the original post , the back of the bottle is better than the front. ! And if you expand the image you can see its name, where it’s distilled and bottled.

Is this a quiz? Am I supposed to guess the brand from the back of the bottle?😀 Anyway enjoy mate. I'm sure it's fully deserved. I'm seeing Cal's mates for lunch tomorrow so it'll be a noon G&T Friday for me.

I’m right in the middle of the most busy 2 week period I’ve had for years , and am now doing something I haven’t done for quite a while- I’m joining @Barnfred 55 in G&T Thursday, I need it ! Aatta Orkney gin . Cheers folks 🙂

Hello everybody. Its warm here but we've had lots of rain in the last couple of days. I like the new kit @Val P but £80 is a lot of money. I dont think I spent that much on my dress for Chris and Sophie's wedding 🤣! I hope the blood test goes...

Well yesterday was a barrel of laughs. When I was having the grab rails and stair handrails fitted for kay, the lady from the county council looked at her bed and said it was against the rules to have a side rail on her bed. The side rail is...

Just completed a long walk in the heat, walked into a shop and the assistant asked me if it was raining now? (I am sweating that much 😀)
