Good evening, Pigale!
Yes, I have seen the clip before!
Two lovely voices!
A good win for Niki Terpstra today in the Tour of Flanders.
I like to see a lone break coming off!
Does not happen very often though!

Good evening, Elle!
I do not know who the other finalists are but those two girls will take a bit of beating, I'd suggest?
They were great!
Been a fine day here.....but!....we have heavy snow forecast for tomorrow!
I had hoped we had seen the last of it.
So, plans for Pine Cone tomorrow are on hold until we see what like is the weather.

Hi Rusty,
No, a lone break does not happen come off often, particularly
after a long ride on cobbles.

From what he said some weeks ago, Peter Sagan's Spring main
aim is Paris-Roubaix. He did not do that badly today though?

Hello, Pigale!
Yes, Pigale, I think Sagan's main target is Paris-Roubaix.
He rode well today, I think he was sixth, but his problem is nobody wants to work with him.
They expect him to tow them to the finish!
He is good over the cobbles, though, and should go well next Sunday, in Paris-Roubaix.
I have had a look at the weather forecast for Roubaix.
Should be quite sunny and 18C temperature.
Sounds good!

Good evening, Rusty!
I have been talking to my cousin for the past hour.......all is well with the northern branch of the family.
I hope you have had a good day?
Did you enjoy your outing with your granddaughters this morning?
We spent the morning at home - I did the Everyman as usual, plus the ST Cryptic.
Four of the latter still to parse......I am stuck!
But this afternoon we have been out walking.
It remained a dullish day, but stayed fine whilst we were out.
Continuous rain now forecast though, from 11pm tonight through till Wednesday evening.
Ugh!
Snow for tomorrow?
You are meeting up with your friends from Norn Iron, aren't you?
Is there an alternative venue, nearer at hand, where you could meet if the Pine Cone proves inaccessible due to snow?
Yes, the two girls - the duo is called Belle Voci - are indeed excellent.
There are three other contestants in the Final, but each is good in his/her own way.
The public will decide.

Hello, Elle!
I have had a fine day!
Watching the golf now.
We may miss the snow.
Miss O is collecting me at 11, and the snow is coming in the afternoon.
We won't be driving in the snow, that's for sure.
Good luck to Belle Voci in the final!

Hi, Rusty!
So how is the golf going?
Do you have a winner yet?
I know you were hoping that it might it be Lexi who jumps into Poppie's Pond!
Let us hope then, that you will miss the snow tomorrow, and be able to go out with your friends as planned.
Our rain has arrived early........
It has been pouring down for about an hour already!

There was an owl on the nest at the loch a wee while ago.

Hi, Rusty!
Oops!
We crossed! See my post below yours......!
I have just looked in on the nest.... it does not look a live pic that I am viewing?
No movement whatsoever?

Hello, Elle!
I can not see Lexi winning this year.
Right now there is a six way tie for the lead.
All from different countries, including Jodi Ewart Shadoff from England.
Lexi is several strokes back.
It is a live picture at the loch, Elle.
You can see the moonlight reflecting on the water, and barely discernible movement of the branches.
If we can not go out for the snow that's OK.
I just refuse to drive in the stuff.
Not safe.
Wonder what that owl was up to?
