😂

[Poppy2525 in reply to skischool]

I dont know, but you can keep the underpants, just ordered some new ones😂

[leo60]

Hahaha! I am currently on the phone to my housing association to let them know that one of our trees has come down on two neighbours property! xx

[Poppy2525 in reply to leo60]

Oh dear, we have lots of trees down in Kent

[leo60 in reply to Poppy2525]

We are quite close then! I am 10 mins from Tunbridge Wells on the Sussex side! xx

[sassy59 in reply to leo60]

Hope nobody’s injured leo. Xxx

[leo60 in reply to sassy59]

No my darling, everyone is fine Thank goodness xx

[sassy59 in reply to leo60]

Good news. 😘👍

[Hidden in reply to leo60]

I bet they’ll say that’s not their responsibility. Or they’ll take 3 months to come & remove them. I wouldn’t have a clue who to phone!

[skischool in reply to Hidden]

Have you never heard of Scruff's tree management and removals.com LolHave chainsaw will cut is our motto,tree preservation orders not a problem.we just ignore them.

😹🪓🌳 x

[Cloudancer in reply to skischool]

The idea of Scruffs plus chain saw and full protective tree gear has made me chuckle into my porridge.

[Thepainterswife in reply to skischool]

😂 I suppose Scruffs can fit this in as the weathers put his airline pilot job on hold ? x

[skischool in reply to Thepainterswife]

Did you not see all those crazy videos of Scruff's landing at Heathrow in the wind yesterday.?

😹✈️ x

[Thepainterswife in reply to skischool]

Omg I should have known a bit of bad weather wouldn’t stop her ! I’ve just been looking at her tree removal site

Scruffs- tree surgeon extraordinaire!

[skischool in reply to Thepainterswife]

Brilliant!You are now Scruff's official agent.

😹👍 x

[Thepainterswife in reply to skischool]

😂 10% ? That should put me in the wage bracket as an MP 🤔 x

[Cloudancer in reply to Thepainterswife]

Love that photo ,made my day-as Scruffs bona fide agent will send on your fee suitably converted into the best available cat food

[Thepainterswife in reply to Cloudancer]

😂 I was actually hoping to make a fortune but tbf Scruffs deserves the best , I believe her favourite is tuna 🐟 and licking up lager spillage 🍺😂

[leo60 in reply to Hidden]

Funny you should say that Hanne!! The, lovely guys on customer services seem to have been told to pass on any tree related queries to seniors. They immediately tell us if the tree is in our garden we are responsible for it!! They were sent an email this morning in anticipation of the storm telling them exactly what to say in order for them not to have to pay up!!! Grrrr They will find me a little bit more difficult, and when I put my daughter on the phone, they positively had a meltdown! She has experience in insurance and my brains (!!) , so we should be fine my tenancy agreement says that I should "maintain" any trees in my garden. How do you "maintain" a 75ft Leyllandii?? So, all good fun!! I will keep you posted! All seems a lot calmer out there now, hope the same for you Good night and sleep well xx

[Hidden in reply to leo60]

Don’t fall for that. I’d imagine the Landlord is responsible for keeping the tree in a safe condition, to protect you and neighbouring property, and not let it grow so tall that it’s liable to fall over in high winds. Leylandii are notorious for their shallow roots. They’re pulling a fast one. Glad you’ve got your daughter to back you up x

[leo60 in reply to Hidden]

No I am not having it at all!! The tenancy agreement says that I am responsible for maintenance of trees on my property, but how one maintains a 75ft Leyllandii, I really dont know!! I will defo be arguing this one!! xx

[Jane2005]

🤣🤣🤣

[HollyBoyd]

As long as you are safe Poppy then that's okay xxx

[Ian1967]

Just a bit of fun.

😂😂

[Hidden in reply to Ian1967]

Hahaha. Could all Northerners please keep the rubbish weather where it belongs in future, ie north of Watford Gap. Everyone knows that lovely warm sunshine belongs down here, and you get the cold wind & hail. It’s only fair x

[Thepainterswife in reply to Hidden]

Your request has been approved Hanne62 , I don’t know what it’s like in your neck of the woods but here in the NW it’s snowing ! I’m going out for a meal tonight but luckily I have my big coat 😊 I just hope I don’t have to spoil my outfit with wellies 🤦🏻‍♀️😂 x

[Hidden in reply to Thepainterswife]

It’s just very windy today. You keep the snow & ice where it belongs, we don’t want it dine sithe!

Our only “disaster” from Eunice is a caput Sky box. I’ve tried everything but no dice so am stuck with Freeview & Netflix only, quelle horreur. Anyway I’m venturing out to visit my mother today (94 & a damn sight fitter than I am.) She’s become quite difficult, much patience is required. Whatever I do, it’s never enough. Also extremely deaf, & I don’t have the puff to shout!

Wear the wellies Val, but slip into your posh heels just outside the door, and enjoy your night out! Fgs don’t end up in the fracture clinic tho xxx

[Hidden in reply to Thepainterswife]

Ps I haven’t had a proper night out since 2019 🎻 🎻🎻🎻🎻

[Thepainterswife in reply to Hidden]

My friend just cancelled due to bad weather , a bit of a relief really , pj’s, slippers and a comfy couch are much more appealing today 😊 Good luck with your mum , at least she won’t hear you muttering under your breath 😂 xx

Miserable up north today ☹️

[Thepainterswife in reply to Hidden]

Ps I shall try to direct the cold and snow towards Norway along with Poppies underwear , you have enough to cope with today 😂xx

[Hidden in reply to Thepainterswife]

Just stopped for flowers and other treats for her & having a sneaky coffee cos jeans & trainers soaked from a deluge which happened just as I was walking to the shop! Plus excessive traffic from the Brighton footie match, my day isn’t going well. Comfy couch sounds great, I’ll be having a hot shower & copying you later 👍 Let me know if there’s owt worth watching on tv 😉 xxx

[Suzie42 in reply to Ian1967]

Love that🤣 Being a southerner totally agree, we shouldn't venture out. My neighbour did and wind blew her over on doorstep. I had to sit with her until her daughter could come and decide on A&E or not.

[Alberta56 in reply to Ian1967]

Will you need a hat if you go out on Ilkley Moor?

[Shirleyj in reply to Ian1967]

So funny and I'm a southerner x x😂😂😂

[Cloudancer]

Love it !Never did pluck up the courage to reclaim some pretty underwear that landed in a neighbours garden several doors away after a very windy day....

[Eastend555]

Lol yeah was a bit windy yesterday blew the dividing fence away no one was hurt so no problem

[Dizzart]

Brilliant 👍🏻😀👍🏻

[Brikel]

I was worried about the shed in my garden. It wasn’t there yesterday 😀

[Thepainterswife in reply to Brikel]

😂

[watergazer]

😂 hope your washing survived

[Mrbojangles]

👏👏👏😜

[Izb1]

Couldnt have done that here in the north, you wouldnt have survived the rain lol. I have never known a winter so wet x

[Thepainterswife in reply to Izb1]

I agree , I checked out my garden yesterday and there were pools in every flower bed 🤦🏻‍♀️ I’ve just braved another downpour whilst spreading large amounts of chicken pellets in the hope it soaks todays lot up 🤞 I think my sodden lawn is beyond repair but I expect the frogs are loving it 😊

[Bingo88]

😂😂😂😂😂Yes good if you weld everything to the line

[dunnellon]

😂Now that's funny! Thanks for the giggle!

[Stratos20]

Ha ha love it 😊
