I cant elp it Dea, I is addicted to sprouts

I'll av some cauli, peppers and mash then.............just for you ;-)

Ginns - you need a 'balanced' diet !!!

And that does NOT mean 6 sprouts on one side of your plate and 6 more on the other !!! ;-) :-D

You must choose something to go with them!

You have to live Cyns....pleasure its called

LK, you work too hard, have you thought about taking it a little easier?

I work to live...pay the bills and have fun......sod the rest ;-)

Loooooong day.

Just caught up with all my orders.

Will be going home soon.

Grand daughter was still ill this morning but has made rapid recovery today.

She demolished a large dinner toniht.

So you probably shed a few calories doing all that housework and then added them again with the vino! Tuts......

Thanks for that. I cant say I ever add to watched threads but was interested to know how it works

Today has been a very lazy day after all that cleaning yesterday and wine last night!!

Good day for The Blades........and well done Chesterfield ;-)

OOOhhh yummm! - Grand-daughter and I made flapjacks on Thursday - just finishing the last one off!

I have to say that they bear no resemblance to the soggy soft ones that you buy in the shops!

Ours are crisp and DELICIOUS !!!

I think it only actually worked for a few days Cyns and then it wasn't really working because people were getting 20 or 30 messages for each post. - That seems to be why they suspended it.

Dea x

In theory you're supposed to Gins. Hasn't been working for a while though. Now I think about it, I think GR did tell us they had suspended it - but don't ask me when that was!! Last summer probably.



Had a good day everyone??????????????

This watched threads thingy....is it the old book mark wotsit?

If you add a thread to the watched thread feature, do you get an email to tell you there has been posts added????????

Clueless I is :-(

Thank you Sylvia....brunch looks super.


Raining here and looking very grey indeed. There was that awful word Snow mentioned on the weather forecast last night.......I do hope it was a mistake. :-(



Would quite happily sit here in my jim jams all day today.


Chance would be a fine thing!!

Oh dear, LK


what a day!

I do hope your granddaughter soon gets better.



OH once split his pants from crotch almost to waist ................... in the lab bending down to a bottom drawer, and he had a lecture to give later.


Two options ............ wear a lab coat OR he did have an electric sewing machine in the back room of the lab 'cos they used to stitch pieces of paper together for one of the experiments they did regularly.



so ........................ he went in the back room, took his pants off, and did a rapid repair! :-D :-D
