Good Morning Thread - Come say good morning, tell us what you've got on today. :)

We have this thread on TilersForums.com and it's just been restarted because the old thread had 20,000 replies and 500,000 views. And there were 700 pages. Started to lag a bit on slow connections.

I think we had a bash of this before, but I can't find the thread, so thought I'd start another one off.

If you have time in the mornings, come post in the thread before you head off to work, let us know what you've got on and what the weather is like in your area etc. Anything at all is fine.

Posts and likes get counted towards your total stats in this thread.

So GOOOD MORNING PEOPLE - WEATHER IS NICE TODAY IN STOKE. I'M THANKFUL IT'S FRIDAY, HAD A RUBBISH WEEK. THANK GOD IT'S OVER.

When your 16 your old daughter says “your van is cool” …. Is that a good thing or a bad thing???

Perhaps it's not so much the lighting she approves of, but the choice of colours...

Yes, every young one seems to be a fan of Zippy and Bungle these days....

Apparently, the lights are also "slay"..... I really don't have a clue about that one.

Reminiscent of lighting used on the 'Reign in Blood' tour?

@Rockingit might be able to help with that...

Sadly my own teenage slang user isn’t around to embarrassingly confer with but I’m pretty sure that ‘slay’ in this context just means good or well done!!

Interestingly(ish) there’s a whole wave of ‘new’ show design coming through now that basically robs from every cliche of 80’s rock band - I’ve just spent the last week in the company of a fully ‘flying’ 40’ bat with moving lights as eyes (the act actually rode it) - couldn’t help but feel it was a very poor relation to Eddie or Floyd’s pigs - and that was nearly 40 years ago!!

First thought is Avenged Sevenfold, but I can't see them riding about on a bat. That and the fact they aren't touring at the moment.

If it ain't stonehenge, it's not worth bothering.

It's all come full circle.

Interesting.... I thought it was just my 17 yr old daughter that said that!

Woke up through the night to the wind…. What a night!
Most of my decos are ok… except the one, long string that runs along the bottom gutter, up the drainpipe to the top gutter, up and over the high gable above our en-suite and along to the end of the house.
The bit above the en-suite is shredded. It’s now hanging, and banging against the wall.

Hanging by a thread.

It might be repairable…. Or shortened… but for now, my gutters are dark.

Bloody hell, you must have been overdoing the beans!!

 

[littlespark]

Fixed it.

Will possibly blow down again tonight… but at least I know where it will break.

Is that a pedestrian door in an up and over door? Never seen that before, but probably very convenient.

Nah… it’s a 1/3 door, and the remaining 2/3 hinges outward… just looks like an up and over.
