I think season 2 is better

Wow! That was one hell of a storm in the night. The rain and wind kept me awake for a couple of hours.

Seems to have abated for now.

Anyway, good morning everyone.

[trikey]

Morning Bob and anyone else up early, we had rain through the night again, thankfully no storm though.

Morning all,

No storm here either but rained through the night. Looking like bright skies out there now though.
Back to work for me today

Here are the lyrics for you to learn during lockdown


I had a girl, really nice girl, down in Wroxham Way,
She were wholly nice to me back in the old school days,
She would smile all the while, but Daddy didn't know all,
What she used to say to me behind the garden wall.
"Have you got a light boy? Have you got a light?"
Then one day, she went away, I don't see her no more,
Till by chance I see her down along the Mundesley shore,
She was there, twice as fair. Would she now be true?
So when she sees me passing by, she say, "I'm glad that's you!
Have you got a light boy, have you got a light?"
Molly Windley, she smokes like a chimley,
But she's my little nicotine girl.
Now you'll see, her and me, never more to part,
We would wander hand in hand together in the dark,
The one night I held her tight, in the old back yard,
But when I tried to hold her close,
She say, "Now hold you hard!"
Have you got a light boy, have you got a light?"
Molly Windley, she smokes like a chimley,
But she's my little nicotine girl.
By and by, we decide, on the wedding day,
So we toddles off to church to hear the preacher say,
"Do you now take this vow, to honour all the time?"
Before I had the chance to stop her, she begins to pine.
"Have you got a light boy, have you got a light?"
Molly Windley, she smokes like a chimley,
But she's my little nicotine girl.
Now the doctor tells me a daddy I will be,
So when I ask him, "What's the score?"
He say there's only three,
So here I go, cheerio, to see how she do fare,
I know what she will say to me as soon as I get there
"Have you got a light ..... boy."



How to make Norfolk dumplings








Ingredients

225g flour
1tspn salt
7g live yeast
Half a pint of warm water
Method

Combine the flour and salt. Put the yeast into the warm water, then mix with the flour and salt. Knead the dough to a dry but springy consistency, adding more flour if necessary. Cover and leave to rise. Shape up into four balls and boil in a 5-litre pan of water for 20 minutes. Makes four good-sized dumplings.

My dumplings have a wee bit more ingredients in them than those, not meddling though as they are different

The Reds went back to winning ways last night at the expense of Spurs, our Freddie would have not been amused ....

I will attempt to learn the lyrics, chapter and verse
