morning again,

Its beautiful here, got lots done this morning, changed dd's bed and got that on the line along with another load of darks. Cleaned bathroom and kitchen, hoovered whole house, mopped floors, emptied dw, just made fairy cakes for dd, weetabix loaf is in the oven, and a pan of stilton and brocoli soup is on the hob, might have some for lunch, although its boiling hot here :rolleyes: .

Also made corgette bread, when I was in the USA a couple of years back, I met a elderly Italian lady, who made me some, it was delish, anyhoo she wrote the recipe down for me, which I lost when I got home, but I found it over the weekend :T, it really is lovely, let me know if anyone wants the recipe.

Going to sit for half an hour now, then get on and do my internet shop.

Happy Birthday to Miss Stefjb, and Miss Tired Mum :T

Tatty, sorry but i don't know how to do links, but if you do a search, it will bring the recipe up, its very easy to make and smells divine, mine is due out in 5 mins.

Hugs to Jackieo today xx

Hi - just taking a break from the ironing!

Happy Birthday to Miss Stef and Miss Tired Mum.

Welcome to Sammyjig - you couldn't have joined a nicer thread!

Well, sorry for all those with gloomy weather but it's lovely here today and perfect for getting the washing dry.

As is usual when DH is home, I've taken my time this morning and had a lazy breakfast and several cups of coffee which will have an effect because I've tried to cut down on the caffeine while he's been away.

Jackie0 - good to hear from you.

Well, back to the ironing, I suppose. DH has just popped to the bank and then he'll have to see what work is in the offing for him. Luckily he was earning while he was away but he also spent a lot of money on fuel having covered over 2000 miles over two weeks - still, it's still slightly cheaper in France than here so he came back with a tank full. Pity he can't siphon some of it into my car but his is diesel and mine's petrol.

Anyway, will catch up later and try and read the whole thread properly.

Have a great day, everyone.

Just a quick Hi! to anyone who remembers me . . . . and Hi! to those who don't: why not.

Still enjoying early retirement - and my MS continues to be relatively low-key so life is good - well apart from all of the housework, shopping, gardening . . . . .:D

So, back to, errrm must be downstairs shower room now I guess.

Have a great day everyone.

back again! just caught up with yesterdays thread.

Happy Birthday to Miss Stefejb and Miss TiredMum!!:beer:

Catowen - Good Luck with the tractor comp;) and YES I have already got a video, dvd and the book the making of pride & prejudice (how sad) with the lovely Colin Firth - enjoy drooling Mioliere!!:D

Dazi - I'm hoping to go see Mamma Mia tomorrow nite - more drooling over Colin and Pierce!!:D I have seen the stage show, so I know the plot but that wont stop me drooling!:rotfl:

Churchmouse - Busies have been watered!;) enjoy yr trip to Bluewater!Dont spend too much in Lakeland!

I've been to Ilford, paid a bill, got my Euro's from M&S and then popped into the 99p store - They had Mikado biscuits (the pink fluffy ones in the Irish section) in there which they are selling in Asda now for £1.49!!! for a pkt of biscuits!!!! are they having a laugh???:eek: :eek:

I also noticed when I went in Lidl's today that their Orange Juice 1.5L usually 95p is now £1.19! seems their prices are creeping up now!:rolleyes:

n9eav - love that photo of you in your fishing gear!:D might encourage my DH to take up that sport!

good afternoon

I am sitting here in my bra and pants:eek: :eek: as I have been weeding the garden of sticky willy and nettles it was hard and I got a bit of a sweat on so I am having a minute and a coffee..:beer:

I dug up my tulip bulbs and now I dont really know what to do with them,, I think I have to get some kind of powder to sprinkle on them to stop pests eating them ,, I think?????

I have the plasterer in upstairs doing the bedroom wall he is very noisy at the moment but I will know when he comes downstairs.:rotfl:

welcome to the newbies

happy birthday to all whose day it is

see ya

Dazi did you get your laptop fixed!!!!

redruby

Katt, let me get this right, you are sitting in your bra and pants with the plasterer upstairs ? :eek: :eek: , lets hope he does not run downstairs for anything, or indeed your hubbie, pops home for lunch :rotfl: :rotfl:

Essex-girl_2

I tried to speed read - came up with, bra and pants, stinky willy and builder :eek: note to myself - more haste less speed


Lucky Aussie isnt here - she would really lower the tone :rotfl:

Hi everybody :hello:

((((Hugs)))) JackieO - I'm sure your lovely girls will cheer you up.

Got a bit of a bug at the moment - I'm bunged up and really hoarse Am supposed to have a singing lesson tomorrow but have warned my singing teacher that I'll have to cancel if my voice doesn't come back by this evening :rolleyes:

Need to do some cooking tonight. Bought some Tesco mince while it's been on offer at £3 for a kilo, so will be doing a batch of chilli, which means I need to pick up some kidney beans and coriander on the way home. I've got hardly any prepared meals left in the freezer, and as I'm not busy in the evenings for a few days, I'm making sure I do some batch cooking to keep my supplies going when I am busy. I think I might do a sausage and tomato casserole tomorrow, and a Thai green chicken curry on Wednesday.

The other thing I need to cook is a large batch of biscuits/cookies as the obligatory birthday contribution to my office (as I wasn't there on my actual birthday, and have been too busy over the weekend to sort it out). A batch of Twink's hobnobs is bound to go down well and will hardly take any time to prepare...

I also need to finish off a review tonight - was going to do it yesterday but didn't get home till late and then just fell asleep! - and tidy up the living room and kitchen, as they are in a RIGHT state. If I do not get on top of the housework this week it's not going to happen for ages...

Have a nice day and I might pop back later.

Love Rzl xx :wave:

Good morning everyone! I was MIA yesterday due to getting up later than usual, having to pander to :smileyhea DH;) ! DH got in from the ferry on Saturday at around 11pm then, two cups of good ole British tea and a long hot joint bath later:kisses2: , we ended up going to bed at around 1am . I didn't really catch up with myself all day after that!

Well, not much more to report really; sorting out DH and me and catching up.

Sorry Kathy couldn't resist - did wonder if you needed the loft too!

Well feeling better than yesterday, stopped visiting the small room anyway. Its cloudy here today and had a thunderstorm around lunchtime, it is little cooler only 23 - though to us it does feel rather cold!

Been basic food shopping bread/milk/cereals, not doing much the rest of the day might get x-stitch out.

((hugs)) all round
