Hockey Duo - Watch the weight, a light weight one is best as you end up lugging it around.

NoahsPennilessMummy (((hugs)))
jackieO - sorry for your friends loss
had a stressful afternoon - DS1 rang to say the front of his car had collapsed at a busy junction:eek: the wishbone had collapsed(if you've got any idea what that is:D) luckily some men helped him get it off the road.
We are all in the RAC which expires next week(joined the AA as its cheaper) but were still able to use them and eventually they collected it and took it to a garage for repair. the stress of it all made my IBS play up but I've popped some pills and it feels a bit calmer now.
OS - managed to virtually dry 2 loads of washing in between the showers.
Ironing done and quorn cottage pies made.
Am working 31 hours over the next 3 days so not much time to do anything else.
Have a great weekend all xDo what you love :happyhear0 -
That looks great for the money IMHO. Like DonnyGal says some of them can be weighty but 6kg doesn't seem too bad. I especially liked the hard cover - very useful. Sorry for the delay I've been helping DD & DS1 iron clothes for their joint big birthday night out tonightHockeyDuo8083 wrote: »Thanks I think basic is the way to go.

Seen some that come with a 'starter kit' i.e. packs of thread, scissors, case etc for udner £100 here. Is this reasonable?

HI everybody,
Stayed off pc again to-day...not sure I did anything extra around the house but needed to get out of all-day use habit.
Happy anniversary to the Haribos!
Rain but mild here, in one of the dry spells I hung out a machine full of washing, nothing needed in a hurry so hopefully they will dry sometime!
We had a salad tea this evening, cold meat, eggs and fish, lots of lovely fresh salad leaves and scallions just picked this afternoon, potato salad and soup if anyone needed anything hot....still there for to-morrow as I am going to Cork for a funeral....almost 3 hours each way but DS1 and family will meet us somewhere for lunch and then home....OH has a streaming cold so not sure if he will come, hope he does as I don't particularly like long solo journies.
Thunder is feeling lonely even though we put Sile in with him every day...he woke me early this morning but was happy to go back to bed after a cuddle. Sile continues to enjoy the tennis on tv...thought animals couldn't see it, she definitely moves her head in time to the ball!
Nic....where in Ireland is the wedding you are coming to?
Aussie....hugs re locket
Hugs to all in need or want to-day, congratulations to all who are celebrating, sleep well all

Thanks for all your kind wishes about my locket. I feel it's a lost cause though, but I really appreciated them.
Haribo- Have a lovely Anniversary chickie. Feed him plenty of oysters.
JackieO- Congratulations & the sauce sounds delish. Hope you find some.
Ruby - That's great news.
I've been awake most of the night. I'm just waiting for it to get a bit later to ring the hospital. I had to call the ambulance at 4am and they carted DH away. He's been in pain for 24hours :rolleyes: in his stomach etc. He was a mess. Not sure what it is, could be appenx, stones,
. But whatever it is, it's not normal.
So plans today are ring the hospital & go from there. Sleep well. ByeeeeeeeeeeeeeeDon't worry about the world coming to an end today. It's already tomorrow in Australia.

P.P.S. Does anyone know where I can buy Heinz tomato ketchup with a twist of garlic in it Tesco's used to sell it but don't anymore and Sainsburys never have Its delicious and if I can find it I would but a case of it
I bought a bottle from our local Heron freezer shop for 39p last week. It was so yummy that I went back for more yesterday!! I put some in my mince base for a lasagne and it was the best lasagne I have ever made!!

I emailed Heinz and they replied this morning .Apparently they are no longer making it so if you see any in a shop buy it up 'cos there won't be any more0
