Hiya all.... Maz, I am soooooo pleased I am out of the NVQ arena, lol! I found as an assessor I was doing more work than the flipping students!! ;¬))

Aw bless them BC.... and all snuggled down and fast asleep.... it is so sweet watching those lovely sleeping faces isn't? I so love to tweak their blankets and cover them up, lol

Mamiddau... The red was lovely..... didn't have a second although I was sorely tempted!! And the butcher's belly pork was really lovely... full of flavour and very tender...... yummy!

I am now off to my bed... it has been calling me for about an hour..... see you all in the morning.

Love

I hae just spent ages typing up an account of my day, and this bally site went all haywire... and now I have lost it... all my lovely words, down the swanny... tried that button thingy with the arrow.... then lost the site altogether.... grrrr,

Well... today I went out with 2 of my sisters, my niece and my mother (we sent R home with the meat... Jac, I used to love chitlings when I was younger, lol) ... and off we all sallied to the garden centre.... and R is soooooo impressed with me cos I bought not a single plant, pot or gardening must-have accessory or tool, lol But we had a wonderful time... and now I am knackered but nicely so!!

Have a lovely weekend, Ann and T.

Hi Daffers - quick update! still have three nice new ceramic pots to plant up - lol lol. I've used some rather nice terracotta ones lying empty for the ferns/asiatic lilies ............................good excuse to visit the Garden Centre tomorrow to get some more lovely things!

Hope you've had a good afternoon with mum and the butcher - I expect you asked to see his Chitlings? )))))

Jac, great minds think alike, I too wondered about Daff 'trying out the butcher' Hmmm!

June is a lovely Hosta, she was really hard to get hold of when she first came out, I got one at the Malvern show last year. Those pots are good value.

Brought my netbook to daughters with me as I couldn't bear to miss anything

Afternoon Daffers and all!

Just back from Morrisons, with a large amount of choccie bickies (did I mention they were half price?? - lol)

You seem to be in fine fettle, which is good! Hope the gynae-Dr gets whatever is the problem sorted pdq.

Off out now to plant up my new set of pots (did I mention Morrison's are selling a set of 3 large glossy ceramic pots - all different subtle shades - usually £13.00 and now £6.50?)

I have some asiatic lilies for one, 3 lovely ferns for another and I'm splitting June for the 3rd! (June will be surprised!) June being a tasty Hosta.

Have a lovely weekend - bi for now

Just noticed the bit about the Butcher!!! when you say "try him out" I hope you are talking about his joints or cutlets! lol

Morning all... R is home today... drove me to the gp surgery, a 5 minute walk away, lol.... appointment was for 8.40.... and as the nurse doesn't start her list until 9, and there is also only one gp in until 9... there should have been a virtually empty waiting room.... but the two patients before me took for ever... the one came out at 8.40, and there was someone before me to go in... she came out at 9.15, by which time I was really twitchy.... the waiting room was full of SICK PEOPLE, lololol Heaven alone knows what I might have caught... I did steer clear though, and resisted the temptation to pull my sweater up around my nose and mouth, lololol

Anyway, he wasn't too bad... told me I looked well (I do, the reaction to the chemo left me with skin pigmentation on my face and neck that looks like a suntan, the rest of my body is more speckled and looks like a dodgy self-tan, lol) I proudly informed him.... I told you I was ill, didn't I? But I did laugh... he was apologetic... then laughed with me... and said that he really wished it had been Thyroid problems rather than leukaemia!!

So, BP up a bit... am to go back and get it done by the nurse next week.... and he is referring me to a gynaecologist.... but I wouldn't let him peek... so we had to do drawings so I could show him what was wrong, lololol Don't know whose was worse, his or mine. But we got there...

Did a bit of Asda shopping... cats are eating us out of house and home, and all I have to nibble on for my snacks is Snickers bars... I've eaten the Turkish Delight.

Off to my mother's now.... there is a very good butcher near her, and I want to try him out!

See you all later.

Love

Oh, BF, so it is all your fault. I can revert to my proper name then, or can I? I suppose now I have pointed out the English edict I would be zapped if I did go back to my proper name.

Morning Daff and I hope you will have a better day today:-) And, Huia, I think you are on the wrong track. I think that Daff's thread was deleted because I castigated my dog on here for costing me £500 to have her teeth cleaned.. And saying my solar lights were *winking*...anyone who loves animals and hates lewd behaviour would be offended. There! Have settled that! lol

My little uns arrived last night and are sleeping soundly...awwww bless:-))) BC XX

My hunky gardeners website... if you really wanted to be malicious.... then I suppose I was promoting it!!

Huia... I can just see you donning combat gear and cam cream, lol... ready to battle.

*waves to everyone*I am off to bed now... have taken Tramadol, so high as a kite... but very sleepy... it would seem that I might have some odd dreams... erm.... I'll let you know. I do feel a bit peculiar, mind... never smoked waccy stuff, so am wondering if that what it was like? Good girl, I was ;¬))

Love and hugs
