Cherry Pie ? - I've got home made ice cream to go with that

LameWolf

I'm glad the cherry pie has proved popular.:p

I was thinking - with winter fast drawing on, could we have a bird table outside? I'd be happy to bring bird food, and we could put the crumbs out as well, instead of sweeping them under the carpet.:rolleyes:

altocumulus

Gets out hammer, wood, nails.

Makes table in quicktime. Hangs out onto the window ledge and attaches table.

There you go...your wish fulfilled...watch the cats don't try and muscle in too.....

LameWolf

Well done Alto. Lovely job you've made of that.:p

I don't think the cats will be a problem, they're more interested in sitting by the fire.

On which note, I must shift this little tabby off my lap, and go and start Mr LW's dins.

I won't be around tomorrow; even though the surgery have cancelled my appointment, Mr LW is still having the day off, so we shall probably either push off out somewhere for the day, or do a few domestic chores (lawnmower needs cleaning and putting away for the winter, for a start).:eek:

Hopefully, will go out for the day.:o :rolleyes:

Magenta

Hello all. Lovely and warm in here, my feet are like blocks of ice, I will just rest them on the fender.
I hope that everyone is ok in spite of the awful weather.
My nose is frozen too, don't think I'll put it on the fender tho'.

I will have some cherry pie if there is any left, and a nice cup of tea.
Thanks.
I see my little virtual Labradour puppy is trying to squash in between the cats next to the fire. He is such a cute little chap, he loves having his tummy tickled.
I haven't got a name for him yet, I thought that we could all think of one together, the person who chooses the winning name will have this lovely virtual cashmire blanket, (in any colour they choose), the biggest choclate cake ever, a life times supply of woolly socks and a virtual meal out in the most expensive restaurant anywhere in the world with whoever they want!!!!

Horace

Magenta - it sure has been cold and wet in Brum today..my nose is cold and also my feet although I may go and put some of my primark bed socks on (they keep my toes warm a treat).

Now for your young pup here's a few suggested names:

Merlin
Max
McGinty
Rex
Treacle (I used to know a lab called Treacle)
Boy (the name of my grandma's old dog)
Tuppence

Brrr....I shall just warm myself by the fire for a while, give me a nudge if I fall asleep and start to snore:eek:

altocumulus

Why not call him Labrador ?

zzzLazyDaisy

or Ally - short for bradawl (well it makes sense to me!)

sharon59

what about SOCKS -we all love them in this weather!

allydowd

I could go a slice of that cherry pie please.

Nothing is going right this week!!!! :mad: So I'll have cream too. LOL

Today my partner, who is allergic to salt, woke up with a badly swollen mouth. It seems something with salt in it made it's way into our kitchen, we have yet to work out what it was. The doctor was not sympathetic; I was not happy, especially when he prescribed an unsuitable painkiller. Sigh.
