There has been some more rain, heavy at times, last evening and through the night, but it has cleared now and been replaced with some lovely sunshine. Some more rain is expected, though, so be prepared!
It was the last match of teh season last night and we played at home against West Mount. And I won my match 21-14 !!! Always finish on a high note? The team won the match overall 7-3. A good result. We then went to Bettula's Italian Restaurant to celebrate!
The bowling season seems to have passed extremely quickly We will still play individual games, but it is teh end of the Bowling League fixtures.
It has been announced that teh Autumn Budget will be declared in late November. Heaven only know what will b ein it.
The Deputy Prime Minister has been in the news again. This time for alleged underpayment of a tax bill, which she claims was because if bad advice. Always easy to get out of something by blaming someone else?
Stay Safe! Stay alert! Stay Calm! BE NICE TO ONE ANOTHER AND SHOW COMPASSION. And a little love?

Yes, we are into September now! It is the meteorological start of AUTUMN!!!!
And I have the heating on in teh office!
I hope you all had a good weekend, dodging the occasional showers.
My weekend was good. Busy on Saturday working through till 4.30! Had avery nice tea then out on the town at 8. Plenty of nice folk out. Called into teh Hope and ended up in the Farmers.
Had a lie-in on Sunday morning. Not like me but it was 10 before I got up. Had Manx kippers for breakfast ( absolutely scrummy ) then caught up with my washing and did some tidying up. Had a little ride-out on teh Trike )( 9 noticed several St George's Flags on lamp posts around teh town ) and spent some time on the Popp Deck to catch some lovely sunshine.
Off to the Farmers for Cocktilas@5 and then popped into teh Capuitola before returning home to listen to Tony Blackburn's Golden Hour whilst doing my ironing. All done nd then a bit of tv , the News ( dreadful stiff) and off to bed at 10.30.
Stay Safe! Stay Alert! Stay Calm! BE NICE TO ONE ANOTHER AND SHOW COMPASSION And a little love?

A cool morning, but dry at present. But perhaps not for long, as some heavy rain is confidently forecast! And Sunday is going to be wet too. So overdue jobs indoors may be on the cards?
There is a big upset concerning the hotel accommodation for illegal inmnigrants, which may well turn nasty. The daily cost to teh Government is over 5 million pounds.
The "Lights" have been turned on in Blackpool. I remember going there on a trip from South Shields with all my apprentice friends, many, many, years ago.
I had 2 new tyres fitted to teh car at Devonshire Garage. Always first-class service there frm Ian and Gary.
I hope you all enjoy your weekend, the last weekend in August as it's September on Monday!!
Stay Safe! Stay Alert! Stay calm! BE NICE TO ONE ANOTHER AD SHOW COMPASSION. Amnd a little love?
