I asked because you're always having a clear out!

Hope you got your dishwasher. I remember one time buying a dishwasher and assistant in the shop said it would 3 days for delivery......I said 'You obviously haven't heard me 'my dishwasher is DEAD'

Went elsewhere, the assistant obviously doesn't understand what it's like to be without a dishwasher

Gins I am always clearing out because firstly OH never quite finishes and then keeps stuff "just in case"

I cleared the kitchen cupboards while he was out the other day. he will never notice half of what I threw out ;-)

New dishwasher comes on Friday. I could have had tomorrow but we have the girls couldn't do it on Thursday as OH has his check up so had to be Friday.

The assistant was really good he phoned to complain about the time it is taking to fix the washing machine. He was trying to get them to scrap it but as parts are in and engineer booked no joy.

If it isn't done on Monday I have to call him first thing Tuesday and he will get them to replace it.

Bet it is done on Monday :-(

Morning everyone,

Poached eggs, vegetarian sausages and pancakes

Tea, coffee and lovely wholemeal toast

Enjoy

Gins I put off having a dishwasher for years now cant do without it :-D

Just wish the washing machine was fixed. I did try to get a new one but OH wouldn't let me as this one is being repaired under warranty.

I am cancelling the warranty as soon as it is repaired ;-)

Good morning all :-)

Thanks for the lovely breakfast Linds <3 <3

I had my eggs on my toast, my sausages on the side and then the pancakes for pudding ;-) :-D

Have just had the strangest experience :-S After about 4 months of having that stupid finger stuck in the air then bandaged up, I have at last been able to let it out (though I will still cover it up if I go out), I have just washed my hair using both hands and, talk about unco-ordinated !!! :-0 - My hands kept bumping into each other and it took me ages to do :-S

Still - It's progress (of a sort) ........ ;-) :-D

Thanks Ginns but I have just had a huge chinese meal - Grand-daughter came home from school starving as they had an awful dinner of really hard chewy beef, mashed potatoes with lumps in, hard carrots and hard cauliflower with bits of yellow on which were not cheese !! so whe couldn't eat any of it.

It must have been bad because she is a very good eater and has always eaten almost everything !

Anyway she asked me to make her favourite chinese (chicken chow mein, battered prawns and rice) which I did, and she wolfed the lot down :-0 :-D

I did me some teryaki chicken and 'helped' her with the chow mein and rice................ Yuuummm

Hubby 'helped out' with some of everything !!! ;-) :-D

I've been having a root through FMP too. Have you got the search settings limited to the UK?

Nice scones........thank you

Dea Report 7 Nov 2014 13:31

I don't think so Ginns :-S - where are they ????? :-D :-S

If you want me to have a look, send me the details

Dea

Dea Report 7 Nov 2014 13:45

It's O.K. Ginns - I just wanted to have a look around really but I can't find anything on him - Arthur Lamb - went over to Melbourne in 1957 - his wife and children followed the following year.

I believe they had a Haulage Business over there and then moved to NZ. - was just curious so tried to look for the incoming passenger list in Australia but couldn't even find the lists !! :-S :-(

I tried a couple of other catagories and even put in a John Smith and a Thomas Jones but got NO results !! - Can't believe that's right with those 2 names :-0

I will keep 'fiddling' for a while then give up :-D

There is one for Arthur Lamb arriving in Mel in 1958 (FMP)

Edit: Born 1942 and he's with Hilda and Sheila Lamb
