Things That Gladden The Heart

In terms of actual money, how much does supporting the royals cost the average UK taxpayer?
It's probably not that much.

I'll support royals in exchange for a National Health Service and UK level university tuition any day.
We waste the money on unnecessary military spending. More than the next ten or twenty nations combined.
 
Astonishing Ayrshire west coast sunset tonight, probably the best I have seen.
My missus was out trying her posh new camera this afternoon and I told her there would be a great sunset tonight, I don't know why as there had been a lovely sunrise and the two don't usually go hand in hand.
 
Two consecutive dry days in Surrey.
Apparently that's the first time that's happened since September.
Had a great dog walk this morning, followed by a cup of coffee at the golf club.
Priceless.
We're adjacent in Berkshire and so possible that stat applies to us too. I am not disagreeing with you in any shape or form but that does seem a long time. No wonder courses are struggling
 
First cut of the year for our greens today :love: I'm looking forward to playing tomorrow. No rain please (y)

You're hoping for no rain?! We've had low temps and driving rain for 24 hours.The mountains around here have a lovely white dusting...:eek: Alicante airport has been shut for 30 hours because of the weather, and they have 2 feet of snow 30 miles inland from there...:eek:

Serves you right after teasing us during your good weather , when we were cold and wet :ROFLMAO:
 
Crisp and frosty dog walks equals clean dogs for first time in weeks! Usually taking as long to clean them after a walk as the walk itself.
 
Roll on the lighter nights and the temp up, that way Rupe can have a quick dip in the Ness, on the ways home, saves me having to try wash the bugger

Ours seem to towel off really well so don't usually have to wash them thank goodness. There have been times when they've gone in a stinky pond or rolled in something nasty so the hose comes out!
