Deja vu to Ivan and Jeanne in 2004. But now it is looking like @jollyjones may get a visit from Idalia as a tropical storm late next week. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Franklin may reach Iceland as remnants. Hoping JJ is far away from Bermuda and Iceland by then. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scotland by Saturday, Wales by Wednesday, Cornwall Thursday, Southampton>disembarkation >London Friday 8th … but … fly home Sunday 10th - fingers crossed, dunno where Idalia will be by then but hopefully long gone. And nothing following … please … A propos of nothing, I’ve just had the most enormous meal at Hot Rocks. They’ve increased the menu a bit, for the better. The heaters are great, here I am in Iceland, outdoors of an evening, and too hot! And, of course, it doesn’t matter how much you’ve eaten, there’s always room for chocolate so I am right now in the Arts Cafe … Edited August 29, 2023 by jollyjones 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare TLCOhio Posted August 30, 2023 #18285 Share Posted August 30, 2023 Lots of good funnies at the Cooler!! Keep it coming. We need it now. Below from the NY Times is a good map this am showing where the two hurricanes/storms are at right now. Very challenging for Florida, etc. It's the major news story on cable currently. Lots of high waters and flooding. Good luck to those there in these affected locations. THANKS! Terry in Ohio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Host Jazzbeau Posted August 31, 2023 #18290 Share Posted August 31, 2023 It's too bad they dropped the 'SAT words' section of that test. Students need to be taught how to parse new words by breaking them down, as in the post above. Here's another: interpolate = inter (between or among) and polo (a game played on a horse, with a stick – note that the comma is essential since few horses are able to control a stick...) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lincslady Posted August 31, 2023 #18296 Share Posted August 31, 2023 I have heard of it - I think that was Cyprus? Heaven knows where British sherry came from, I don't think we had vineyards in those days. 😉 I think it was called QC or QVC? Or maybe I am mixing that up with the online shopping channel. Do you remember Yates' Wine Lodges? We had a super one in Nottingham, full of old chaps with bulbous noses who drank schooners of 'port', and ladies of the night. My son managed to get thrown of it one night; his main claim to fame. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Luxury Posted August 31, 2023 #18297 Share Posted August 31, 2023 Bristol was the sherry capital of the UK Harvey's Bristol Cream Yes I remember Yates Good old days 😁 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
