I wish I could, Soappie! Just wondering how many cowboys you need for Cowboy hash, but no one's sharing the recipe secret. IF DD was not home I would make Glamorgan sausages (she doesn't like them :rolleyes:)
Craftyscholar - I just find it a good way to keep in touch (and get back in touch) with people. I'm also sad enough to enjoy doing the jigsaw puzzles on there, and word games. I find it very social (like this thread) and as I don't socialise much other than through work or college, it's fun!

There list is found and rather long but hey ho let's see what happens.
Anyone want a HHC 12.00 - 12.30pm?
Are there still problems with the site this morning?
0 -
Morning all
Trouble with the site to start with but it seems to have speeded up now (hope I haven't jinxed it!).
Pouring with rain here, one load of washing hung up indoors. The weatherman said dry until lunchtime so I hung it out to start with. He was lying.
I've done the bathroom/toilet right through. Still not happy using it, I hate having anything new.
I've also given the living room a good go. Pulled all the furniture out and washed down the skirting boards etc and damp wiped everything in the room. Gave it a good vacuuming and carried on through the hallway and kitchen. Found the right paint in the cupboard and went over a few bits on the living room walls that wouldn't wipe off. It badly needs decorating but that has to wait until we've got upstairs sorted and saved up for new furniture and carpet.
Hope all the poorly people feel better soon.
This was slow to post so I don't think everything is right yet!0 -
