How about that Dea?

I rattled her cage and Gins appeared..

I put on a kilo and then lost it again in the space of a week.. and I hadn't moved the scales.. they could do with a dust though.. wonder where Cyns has put the cloth and cleaner. ... probably in the fridge with the way she has been behaving lately.

Hope she doesn't where her washing up gloves to Church in morning..

Early start tomorrow so box for the train appreciated.
Thanks Perse.

He coped well today.

Earlier this week he decided to root around in his shed in the dark with a torch.
Do not ask me why cos I go not know.
He had a fall and a very heavy saw landed on him.
He was lucky he did not have any bits chopped off.

Silly sausage.

Hi all
xxx


got back this afternoon


weather ran the whole gamut from sun to snow ............ both going and coming back!


We did have to cross 4 mountain passes that were 1200 m to over 1500 m high ....... and rain down below tends to equal snow up there!!

Hi Sylvs..

Lunche boxes are at the ready.. Thermos of coffee for LK.

I get confused as to what the heck I am doing on a Saturday and Sunday

So I have rustled up some scrambled eggs with bacon bits and chives to have on toast.

Grilled some ham steaks and lamb chops to munch on..

Crumpets under the grill... you can have honey, jam, vegemite or peanut butter on them or if you prefer melted brie or garlic mushrooms..

Muffins, scones and pastries in the warmer.

Good morning Persie.

I will have scrambled eggs with bacon bits and chives on toast topped with a grilled ham steak, a couple of little lamb chops and some garlic mushrooms....... delicious :-D

I will be back later for lunch - I think the grilled chicken breast with fries and a side salad, then a thick slab of your Nana's fruit cake.

Thank you Persie! <3 <3 <3

Persie! The crumpets...... :-0 :-0


Got 'em! :-D



Morning all and welcome back Sylvs.

Thanks for that Persie........I need a coffee please after the shock of rescuing those crumpets.



re rubber gloves Persie...... Ahem.....I hate to admit it, but 3-4 years ago I went with odd shoes on.......they were both brown anyway! :-D


I also remember being told about a Bishop's wife who turned up for a service in her underskirt..... :-0 Super lady who, sadly, developed dementia a few years later.


I am now depressed..... :-( :-(


But....the sun is shining :-D


See you later ~~~

Cyns... the grill isn't on.. the crumpets are sitting there waiting for one to turn it on before you go to eat them.

Goodness only knows what she rescued.. probably some odd brown shoes...

My mother did that too Cyns... she had two pairs of smart navy and white brogue type shoes (this was back in the forties.. I was not around then) and she didn't notice till she alighted from the tram.. It ruined her day.. no one else noticed .. well not till she told them...

That's the thing Ginns - Hubbys car cost him £800+ recently because the heating/air conditioner didn't work !! - should have been over £1,000 but they messed him about something dreadful !!!

WHEREAS, my little 22 year old beauty has not got any of this sophisticated stuff to worry about - if a bit goes wrong, it costs pence to replace ;-) :-D :-D :-D

Dea,

I remember liberty bodices with their rubber buttons and the "Utility" mark.

As you say the youth of today, don't know they have been born. :-D
