Camper vans are not my style at all Tec, but I could cope with one of those posh pods they have there

Good evening CC

If Rolf harris goes to Glastonbury each year, methinks that is a very good reason to avoid the place!

Thank you CC - I have lead a sheltered life, so was ignorant regarding pashminas, chocolate, or any other flavour.
I would prefer not to be in the company of Rolf Harris. Incidently, I do still have a full head of hair - silver grey it might be - but I do still need a comb.

I am sure that you could get used to Graham Sue, after all we have got used to Rolf and Barrie Humphries

He is ghastly. I really can't stand ultra-camp - and yes I know that's terribly un PC.

Linda

thanks for the PM. i have replied with some further information but I'm not sure of the veracity of it.

Apologies for the delay in replying, I had to leave the room for a few minutes.

Can we send Jonathan Ross with Graham Norton as a package?

Linda - posh pods and helicopters? they'll be thinking Shirley Bassey has turned up again.

Well I'm off to bed now,
so enjoy your day Sue, Allan,
sleep well Linda, and CC.

Perse - Please tell the All Blacks not to actually kill our lads, we'd like them back really in one piece.

~~~~~~~~~~~to Diane,
Goodnight,
Tec.

CC you are more than welcome to keep Rolf, and Germaine, Kylie, Dannie and any other entertainer who may hail from Oz (or at least a little drizzle!) :0))

I am off to bed as well, as it is very late. Allan I have the extra info, if you send me the date, I will have a good look tomorrow

Goodnight CC and Linda - sleep well.

We have Russell Brand here at the moment. I saw him on the football show cheering on England. He is a really scary looking man. His girlfriend reportedly told the ladies of Australia to keep their hands off him. No problem - he doesn't do a thing for me.

How's the weather been over in WA, Allan? Soup weather yet?

Allan Report 19 Jun 2010 00:12

Definitely, Sue

OH made some pumpkin soup yesterday and I made some bread rolls, the old fashioned way.

It was a bit on the cool side so I put the dough in the car to keep realtively warm. It worked a treat!

Allan

SueMaid Report 19 Jun 2010 00:18

You've mentioned putting the bread dough in the car before. Great idea. I really must give bread-making a go. OH made a lovely big pot of veggie soup through the week. Lovely!!

Allan Report 19 Jun 2010 00:22

Sue, we're the same. Make a big pot of soup and then have it for a few meals.

I must admit I feel sorry for those folk who can't or won't cook as it is very simple. I'm not talking about Masterchef type of cooking but good old fashioned hearty meals.

Whenever we have chicken we boil up the bones for stock.

Everyone gone off again? Well goodnight and good morning to the rest of you.
Glad to see that you are up to date with your colours CC, because I only learned last year about the 'chocolate' brown when I told my daughter that I wanted to buy a pair of brown shoes, but none I had seen were dark enough and I dared to say that I wanted "a real n**g*r brown". She said "Mum!!! Don't let anyone hear you say that - you'll be arrested!". Well that's what I've called the darkest shade of brown all my life and I don't ever remember thinking of people in other countries when I said it!

I checked in the supermarket later with the shoepolish and I notice the name has been changed on that. It was probably changed years ago. I'm a bit slow finding these things out.
Oh- and I still haven't been able to buy a nice pair of very dark brown shoes - I'm still looking.
