IN LYME Regis earlier walked past the grave of the great fossil collector Mary Anning
and saw daffodils at the foot of her gravestone and wondered why…
The reason, of course, she died on March 9, 1847, aged 47 years old, as old (pretty much) as the nineteenth century, which her discoveries did so much to change.
@RealWestDorset 'mardy' & 'mardarse' - so few Southerners seem 2 understand; harder still when u tell them its the same as having a 'cob on' @RealWestDorset vodafone - best network?? Orange is only one that works for huge swathes of west Dorset, esp round Beaminster
@DorsetLife But also I think reason for sudden Dorset splurge of I-Phones is simple. It's because of Vodafone link-up (best network here) @DorsetLife I had in mind PM's idea abt Britain creating a world-beating digital economy. You could regularly check up on Dorset's progress
@RealWestDorset lol very good! It's been nice here, but it looks like its going to Mard it down any minute! hehe @Aurora7 Rain tipping down as if offended. What u might call mardarse weather - from the word mardy (& now I think, mardyarse is word too) @Aurora7 A Midlands word I always thought - tho it might have come down from (sniff) Yorkshire @Missy_P I've been thinking how to respond but am lost for words. I don't fancy a BM - but perhaps I ought to leave West Dorset more often
