Did you and Stan go for a swim? …I’m saying this in jest but you’ll probably reply ‘actually…’

[Delamere]

Wow can smell that sea from a stormy and snowy Scotland. Love the photos xx

[Blackbird8 in reply to Delamere]

Hi Delamere we had a smuttering of snow for about 5 mins yesterday that was it .. I remember being raised as a child in Glasgow the winters were proper winners ice on the inside of the windows 😌😍

[Delamere in reply to Blackbird8]

Hi we still had that at the cottage last year until we managed to get heating sorted out when l look back don't know how we managed ! Had lots of laughs though 1st up best snuggly blanket for cuddling on sofa would have been so much easier to buy another blanket x

[Blackbird8 in reply to Delamere]

Coats used as top blankets I shared a cupboard bed with 5 sisters I'm the youngest of 13 so knew what it was to go short 😂 putting dusters on our feet to clean the lino floors with polish made a skating rink sliding up and down ❤

[Delamere in reply to Blackbird8]

Oh my what a busy house that must have been .l still put dusters on my feet and shuffle around on our wooden floors no wasted energy here x

[Blackbird8 in reply to Delamere]

Excellent way to clean 👌

[Izb1 in reply to Blackbird8]

Wow BB and I thought I was hard done by being the youngest of 4 girls and dad poorly with lung problems meant we knew what it was like to go short too, having said that I think we had a happy childhood thanks to poor mum running round like a loony x

[Blackbird8 in reply to Izb1]

My mum was a Saint 8 girls and 5 boys we never went without that I can remember hand me downs we didn't care ... we always had plenty to eat veggy patch big garden 😋

[Izb1 in reply to Blackbird8]

Mums were, everything had to be made from scratch and washing days must have been a nightmare, we had a mangle and a board and my mum worked full time as well. God love them dont know how they did it x

[Blackbird8 in reply to Izb1]

I remember Monday wash days the washboard with fairy soap for shirt collars ... the mangle was a creation in itself ❤🧡 yes my mum worked a lot also when we got older ... my dad was a foreman plumber for the council x

[Alberta56]

Ooo! That looks chilly. I hope you wrapped up warmly and kept Stan well away from the water. xxx

[Blackbird8 in reply to Alberta56]

No we went for a swim lovley it's refreshing 💛

[Alberta56 in reply to Blackbird8]

Brrrr! You hardy lady. xxx

[Blackbird8 in reply to Alberta56]

Wetsuit so not that hardy 😁

[Patk1 in reply to Blackbird8]

Omg!! Yr brave! X

[Izb1]

What a great place to walk, lovely and fresh x

[Blackbird8 in reply to Izb1]

Just a tad fresh for the swim 🏊‍♂️

[watergazer]

Wonderful and terrifying at the same time to watch a stormy sea. The storm was kind to us as it swept all the fallen leaves to one side of the garden. Made life easy to pick them up. That’s our 2nd full bin Quite a few more to go ! Xx

[Blackbird8 in reply to watergazer]

It was bad here for an hour or more but nothing detrimental happened 🧡

[HollyBoyd]

Great photo BB. I just cant get my head around you going for a swim in that cold sea, you are brave, maybe warmer than the North Sea up here??? Do you swim every day, keeps you fit? 🥶xxx

[Blackbird8 in reply to HollyBoyd]

Not every day just when I feel the need about 5 or 6 times a month in the warmer months whenever possible it's a great way of getting and keeping fit 🧡 wetsuits are standard x

[HollyBoyd in reply to Blackbird8]

Even then you are still brave xxx

[Blackbird8 in reply to HollyBoyd]

😁😁 or just crazy 🤪

[HollyBoyd in reply to Blackbird8]
