It snowed heavily, then melted luckily at the right time for us to travel for my surgery, then snowed again, enough to affect TV reception, now melting again.

That sounds fascinating. Let us know what you find.It was really windy this morning around four a.m. then it started pouring with rain. I had a dream with King in it as well. King was sitting in a chair by himself on a clay tennis court and he was being interviewed( the tennis court was the one I played at when I did tennis at school, the ones at Cooper Park in Woollahra, and then I ended up with KIng in London at some nightclub then he said he had to go. The I was walking around some big Department Store like Harrod's. I went to some nightclub in London back in 1986 I think it was the Marquee Club. It isn't too cool today, it has been raining but it isn't too bad.
There's a really interesting website I just was looking at with pictures of people from music going to places in London in the 80's.

I clean ours every time before I light a new fire. Hubby never does so when he was home for a week because of the snow, he just kept feeding logs without de-ashing. We use those formed logs (which burn hot and for a long time) and they leave klinkers. When he finally went to work and I was able to clean the stove.... yikes!I've had mine out only long enough to clean the ashes for the last two weeks. Mrs. CReeder loves her wood stove!
Time for an ark???Still raining. No school tomorrow.
There's a picture of David Bowie checking out a fan's(?) record collection. I don't think it was the Marquee Club in London, I went too, it was supposed to be the club where the 'trendys' used to go. I went with my schoolmate over to England and he was penpals with this English bloke who worked at Pinewood Studios, and he was working on the set of Aliens, and they'd just chuck things away once the film was made, so he had the decal of the 'Bug Stomper' thing when the go down to the planet on the 'dropship' when the female pilot goes 'where in the pipe, five by five'. There's also a picture of Kurt Cobain in London signing an autograph.That sounds fascinating. Let us know what you find.
Isn't that sad? Of course, there was no ebay then so folks couldn't easily sell stuff.they'd just chuck things away once the film was made
