Hurrah to tiles being loved by all Mila!
That's darned inconvenient of your living room fireplace Stripes - it's getting above itself if you ask me.

The house is indeed groaning a bit all round. Nothing that some paint and gaffa tape might not sort
Cheery I hope you're well and Mila woo hoo about the tiles, EH that was a very bad yoke.............
Haircuts and half days today then I'm off garden for two and need to crack on with organising trades folks and getting a bit more organised.
DS has applied for a few temp jobs DH is almost finished his pesky assignment for his MSc
Me well dressing would be a good idea before Sir P goes for his haircut -- damp day here
No real plan for tea - DS made a lush left over roast dinner pie, all the joys of a roast in a pie.
Chicken stock needs draining and then making into soup - will do that later.
Must look in the fridge/freezer and fathom a plan.

It's all go there Pippi; hope things get worked out soon and not too expensively!
Mila glad the tiles look as good as you imagined - or maybe even better!
We have two new scrawny ex-bat chooks here, Feathery and Beaky. They are taking a while to get used to the outside world.0 -
Trog loving the names for the new chooks - it must be so strange for the poor things first off, mustn't it!
WHY IS EVERYONE TALKING ABOUT FOOD?!!!!! Smolly & her sticky buns and now you and your roast chicken pie....serious food envy occurring now! :rotfl:
On the plus side I'm reasonably organised about food at the moment but still can't establish why the freezer never seems to get any emptier. Hmmm.🎉 MORTGAGE FREE (First time!) 30/09/2016 🎉 And now we go again…New mortgage taken 01/09/23 🏡

EH it's because of the train of thought 'oh this is on sale, I'll get two...or three'. Freezers are nefarious appliances. They cunningly invite you to freeze leftovers, the abundance of the garden, sale items, leftover herbs, nuts and flours etc etc. Then the tricky devils hide your stuff! :rotfl::rotfl: Overprepare, then go with the flow.

Thanks - the girls named them!
They do look as though they can't get used to the feeling of grass under foot, they lift their feet and put them down very carefully. Perhaps it tickles! They do like eating the grass though, they got the hang of that right away!
Sympathising with the freezer problem - we are in the process of moving house so trying to empty ours, but it's still full of gooseberries, and that's in spite of gooseberry cake, lots of crumbles, jam, puddings and even lamb and gooseberry curry!0 -

Yes. Very fair point, nicely made.
What was I thinking Lady Stripes of Snowdrop Manor?!:rotfl:
Mila is correct about freezers also - we have two and they're both devious little devils! :eek:🎉 MORTGAGE FREE (First time!) 30/09/2016 🎉 And now we go again…New mortgage taken 01/09/23 🏡
