Thanks, Chris, I see what they have done now!

Hello, Elle!
A win in Belgium for Peter Sagan!
Poor Tony Martin crashed and landed on his face.
Very bloodied, but he rode on.
Now, if Rickie can manage to win the golf I shall be very pleased and may burst into a chorus of "Goodnoight Oirene!"
Weather brightening here.
I hear Storm Ewan has hit Ireland!

Hi, Rusty!
We are home again.
My goodness, it was very windy out! and decidedly chilly!
Have you been out ?
Yes, I agree with you - it would behove (what a lovely word!) Mo to keep well away from Salazar.
I cannot think where all this will end.........
Now tell me...who is Voila Davis?
I do not recognise the name? obviously, she is an actress - but in what sort of genre?
Ought I to know her?
Pause.......
I was in the middle of typing this to you.......when the phone rang!
An old friend, with whom I have been constantly in touch by email but with whom I hadn't spoken in person for quite a while, had rung me!
We have been talking for about forty minutes!
That was nice!
How is the cycling going?
Right, I'd better click on "Add post" and get this to you!

Hi again, Rusty!
Oops!
I finally sent that off that last post, only to find that I am now somewhat behind the times!
See, this is what happens when I stop to chat on the phone in the middle of sending a message!!
I'm sorry about that!
Now.....
Good for Peter Sagan! You will be pleased about his win!
How awful for the other poor man - that is what I don't like about cycling!
I'll keep my fingers crossed for Rickie in the golf!
I shall listen out for strains of "Goodnoight, Oirene" filtering down to me........
I didn't know we had moved on to Storm Ewan?
We are being told here that Doris hasn't "finished", but will be back with snow at the beginning of March!!???

Hello, Elle!
Yes, Sagan rode very well!
Tony Martin will be fine.
All part of riding a bike!
Rickie has on an orange shirt.
Orange is the colour of his Uni.
Oklahoma State.
He always wears it on the final day of a tournament.
Storm Ewan is still in Ireland, I believe, but is making his way across here.
Hope it is not too bad!

Hi, Rusty!
I do not often watch much television, but tonight I have been spoilt for choice!
I like "Call the Midwife" which is on at 8pm., but I record it and watch the programme during the week.
But tonight there is a second "The Voice" show - and that overlaps!
And I should be talking to my cousin!
So I am recording one...watching the other...and speaking to my cousin an hour later than normal, at 9 o'clock!
How is Rickie getting on?

Hello, Elle!
Rickie is trying to snatch disaster from the jaws of victory!
He drove into the water earlier and took a double bogey.
Still has a two shot lead, but it is going to be tough down the stretch!
Yes, best 'phone your cousin!

Hi, Rusty!
Are you still watching the golf?
How is Rickie doing?
I enjoyed "The Voice," and still have "Call the Midwife" to watch another day.
Do you remember my telling that one of the competitors was Jazmin Sawyers - a GB long jumper?
Unfortunately, she was eliminated from the show tonight.
She sang "Happy Birthday" to Colin Jackson recently, at one of the athletics events on TV - Colin was 50!
All is well on the North-Western front - my cousin and family are fine.

Hello, Elle!
"Oirene, Goodnoight Oirene, Oirene, Goodnoight!"
Rickie has won the Honda Classic by four shots!
He was in the water twice but played some great golf!
I have heard of Jazmin Sawyers, I think!
Colin is in good nick for 50.
I like him.
Good to hear your family is fine.
No sign of Ewan yet, but it feels colder.
I have the garage to visit tomorrow.
Hopefully get my lethargic starting fixed!

Good morning, Rusty!
Dreich here!
A very dismal start to the day and supposedly set to become worse as the day progresses.
Well done, Rickie! You will be pleased with that result!
Yes, Colin looks great for his age........I was amused by Gabby Logan asking him ( in the middle of an Athletics commentary!) what he used on his skin to keep him looking so young!
What is happening with your car?
Presumably they will need to keep it at the garage for a while?
Have you had to walk home?
Or does your friend give you a courtesy car?

Good morning, Elle!
Great day here, but icy in places.
I am very pleased for Rickie.
He is one of the "good guys"!
My car is at the garage.
The ignition/starting system is being investigated etc.
And the plan is that it will stay out in the street tonight under the security camera, and they will see how it behaves first thing tomorrow.
First thing in the morning is when it can play up.
I took a mini cab home.
I knew the driver, so we had a good natter on the way home.

She has been tweeting in Slovenian the last few days!
