Ann, that is so funny about your OH's haircut. Reminded me of the time, shortly after I was married, when my OH asked me to trim his neckline. He wanted to wait a couple more days before he got a cut. He was American and I didn't always understand some of his sayings at that time. Anyway, it was scissors then, and he wanted me to 'square it up', and that's exactly what I did. He had lovely corners :-D :-D He didn't ask me again - not until the hairclippers came in. |

I bet you will be in for it when he finds out what you have done :-D :-D Ros use to cut my hair for years, her being an ex hairdresser came natural. Why it ever stopped I don't know., Must have been when I saw a pretty girl hairdresser. !!! |

Have just found a way of growing yellow courgettes on a green courgette plant. Just found a monster in the poly tunnel. A spout from the green courgette had grown under the black polythene and I saw this big bump and lifted the poly to find a huge courgette all disfigured growning and it is very pale yellow. I thought that plant wass'nt producing as it should!!!!!!! :-| :-| :-| :-| :-| :-S :-S :-S :-S :-S |

Sounds like What Remains was a good series, I missed the first one so didn't bother, I quite like Vera though, mainly for Brenda whatshername, she's a good actress. Did you make your cakes Mel? I've had a pretty lazy day, been reading my book, not my usual, called One Shot by Lee Child it's better than I was expecting. |

Maureen a potato ricer is like a small sauspan that has millions of holes in it. It has a handle like a sauspan and a plunger bit so you put potatoes (cooked) in it and squash them with the plunger which is also on a handle and out comes little tiny wiggles of of potato which look like rice. |
