It is the company TUI use to deliver lost luggage. We tried to contact them by phone today but they do not accept telephone calls, only contact is by email so we have done that. No reply as yet, fingers crossed for tomorrow.

The Lake District is breathtaking and we go there very regularly either to stay or for a day trip. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare twotravellersLondon Posted August 15, 2022 #37129 Share Posted August 15, 2022 Last night the forecast for today was thunderstorms all morning. But no rain in sight... just blue skies a balmy 21˚C and 26˚C is now forecast. Airing the house to get a through-draft, breakfast on the patio and a rain dance on what used to be the lawn to try and save a laburnum tree. Neighbour's "lawn" so brown that our local vixen thinks that she blends into it! 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw her last week and was shocked to see how she had deteriorated health wise since I saw her the previous week. She was a year younger than me but we always talked about what we and my sisters used to do on Sundays at grandma's. My favourite was sitting under the table eating " toffee fishes" while the "grown ups" talked about "Grown-up things". So sorry to hear this Josy Michelle 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just out some washing on and now thunderstorms forecast for this afternoon. Last night was the worst with hardly any wind so 26C in my bedroom with no chance of a cooling breeze. At least there is a good breeze today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caullkhead Posted August 15, 2022 #37136 Share Posted August 15, 2022 Managed to walk poor dog this morning , still pretty warm, close now. Had a sprinkle of rain again just now although it’s blue out to sea for a minute. Apparently South West Water are mending leaks free now the hose ban is coming in down here, so I’ve reported the the one down our lane that’s been going for ages (couple of years thinking about it) it’s complicated as the pipe comes through a stream & then to 4 cottages & the stop cocks in the actual road so there for the households responsible. They were called out a few years ago to a leak in the pipe in the stream but wouldn’t do anything as no one would agree to pay, so the neighbour that reported it taped it up well. We’ve taken out insurance on ours as it also comes over the stream but just feeds us. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Eddie99 Posted August 15, 2022 #37138 Share Posted August 15, 2022 Josy - so sorry for your loss. I know you are a close family, so you will be able to share the grief Michelle - good news about your scooter. Honestly, what a shower! Talking of which - clouds and a few drops here but nothing to write home about Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hot enough to fry an egg on a Mini, we thought. Warning - don’t try this at home. It doesn’t work! And it’s very, very messy! 😉 Harry.
