hiya hedewizard
am in parkstone-used to go to Kingston Maurward in Dorchester-love that place

souonds like there was another fire in dorset-Turbury Heath this time-another arson attack! why do these ignoramouses (have no idea if this is a real word!) get away with it! grrr

Oh to have snow! if we get as much as half an inch - people dont come to work! Id be straight down the allotment doing a spot of clanging the frost bitten earth! if not id be wrapped up warm and out with the dog

....oh in my own dream world now (well it is lunch time)

I live near Canford Heath and was lucky enough that my family and I didnt need to evacuate-still really really annoys me that people are so ignorant to the harm they are doin to the people around them and the environment!!

thanks everyone
will let you know how the journal gets on-would rather be outside on my allotment and pottering in the garden than be in work!! its cold however a great day for being outdoors!!
