OS Daily Thur 18th June 09

N9eav

Hi there! This is the Daily Thread for Thur 18th JUneThis is an 'Over the garden fence' type thread where we chat about everything Old Style and maybe a little bit more. It’s a great, inspiring and motivating thread we start each day to discuss what Old Style things we’re going to do today or what we’ve achieved already. Everyone is welcome, so please do come in, put your feet up (although check the fence hasn’t just been painted first!) and join us for an Old Style natter. The more the merrier!
As this is the Old Style Board, it would be appreciated if posts could include some Old Style content. Please be aware that many people may have screens, or slow internet connections, so please DON'T post large pictures, or clip art – links are preferred.
When you make a post, if you feel like giving it a title, that will help others that don’t have the time to read everything skim through the thread quickly, but if not, it's not a problem.
Please do not start a new Daily Thread before you go to bed at night because this often leaves things confusing with two Daily Threads live at the same time. The idea is that a member would start each new Daily Thread after they get up in the morning. Some people who chat here like to try to answer everyone. Don’t feel you have to though, a general “Hi everyone, hope you are all well” type start is just as good!

Morning..... Sunny start here, bit breezy which could be a bit aggravating for fishing tomorrow. Popped in to ASDA yesterday for some things and then got a call from the OH informing me that I had her car keys in my pocket, so had to rush back home again without anything.
Court today. One of a number of cases recently where people have assualted quite badly people and stated that they did it because they sexually abused them 20/30 years ago when they were children. Seems to be happening more and more...
Garden needs some work badly, but what with rain and other hobbies it has been left....
Nothing much else to report.... Cheers

Good morning

Looks like a lovely day ahead. Got to work yesterday to find there was a power cut so had a crash course in how to start a generator. Was also spared the task of watering the garden as it rained in the evening. Not much OS planned for today - too early to think and haven't had enough caffeine yet.
Have just caught up on on yesterday's thread.

Linz - (((hugs))). Your house is not the problem, your mother's outlook is. I agree with MSD. Hope you feel better about things this morning.

BM has not turned out the best loaf of bread this morning , I think I may have put the wrong amount of water in. Looks like salad instead of sandwiches for lunch today:o.

Have a good day everyone.

Sunnyday

Morning peeps :wave:

lovely bright and sunny here today :ji`ve not seen the weather forecast yet so i hope that it`s here to stay.

Last early shift for a few days so a bit of a lie in tomorrow but not too much as my car is in for a service, once thats done the day is my own - well mine and DH`s really as it`s his day off too.

We need some sun so that we can get some gardening done, the grass needs cutting yet again and our hedge could also do with a once over with the trimmers. My courgettes are coming along quite well and another one is almost ready to pick :j i would like to visit the garden centre for a couple of grow bags then i can sort out a few greenhousy things.

Tea tonight is sausage and onion pasta bake YUM! i`m quite looking forward to it as i have some nice tasty lincolnshire sausages to make it with.

((((HUGS)))) Loopylinz - I hope that you feel better today, as some would say you can`t choose your family x

Noahspennilessmummy - Glad to hear that your headaches are getting sorted out.

I`m sure that there was someone else that i was going to mention but my mind has gone blank so i shall send ((((HUGS)))) and good wishes to everyone.

Have a lovely day peeps.

Morning everyone
Excitement must have kicked in as woken early, and did get everything done for last night (apart from a pampering bath, but hey oh!)

Only going as far as Junction 19 on the M1 today, so hopefully the breeze stays down your way N9eav as not nice when towing. OS meal prepared and in fridge for when we get there.

LL - I cannot understand why a Mum could be like that, makes me remember what a super Mum & MIL I had, they came to see me (well DS) not the house, and if I was behind when DS was small would just "muck in", do it without any fuss but with a hug. Our DS is realising now how not all parents are as supportive as his and cannot get his head around it.

(((((hugs)))))) to everyone.
DG

Note: Sunnyday notice Netto and Lidl have various soil bags in, didnt really check which, and they could be cheaper than a garden centre.

Good Morning All

N9eav - good luck at court today - will their 'excuse' make a difference?

(((hugs))) to anyone who needs one.

Another beautiful day here today. Normal day of washing, ironing, housework and paperwork. OS will be as normal copius amounts of stardrops and some vinegar.

Didnt have salad yesterday so a nice ham salad for tea - perfect day for it.

Watched Spain - paradise lost last night - so terrible seeing peoples lives ruined - never again will I be jealous of someone with a foreign property.

Off now for a quick surf, have a great day.

Morning all,

Nice day here again today, we had a good storm last night, so the veggies has a good water.

Off to work today, need to have a quick tidy round before i go, and water the veg babies in the conservatory.

Something with chips tonight, maybe fish fingers and peas. Sainsbugs are delivering tonight.

Went for another walk last night along a different part of the river, saw some swan parents with 4 fluffy cygnets, very cute.

Donny enjoy your trip,

And hugs where needed

Have good days all xx

Morning all,
Another day another hangover, what is it about Spain? the two seem to go together. Having a wonderful time with my Dear Brother. We are off to Denia today, more bargain hunting.

Have cleaned the patios with Stardrops and swished the floors. A bit of ironing to do and that's about it for another day.

Loopy Linz, I'm sure you must realise that even if your house was perfect your Mum would find fault elsewhere. It's not your problem it's hers. ((((hugs))))

big hugs to all...

so far today i am not doing too well, i remembered to bring my lunch, but have forgotten the things that i needed to exchange at Asda... and i am clearly not doing that tomorrow... it'll have to wait until next week now...

i am quite pleased though as i have bought lunc for the second day in a row, which for me is quite an acheivement...

when i get home i have lots of laundry to look forward to, some ironing, and also the hoovering. i got as far as getting the hoover down the stairs last night, and then collapsed on the sofa... (not so good )

i have no idea what's for tea, probably a jacket spud... (so in fact i do know was just haveg a blonde moment...)

i hope that all are having good days.

morning everyone! I'm back after a few days away(in case anyone missed me:D)
Had a few lovely days in Wales with DH for his 47th birthday(yesterday) and the lads didn't wreck the house while we were away:j
Now I've got about 6 loads of washing to do(all the beds plus some clothes) and have managed to get most of the house back up to my standards. I'm still off work till next Tuesday:j hoping to get lots done in the garden too.
DH not too well - back still playing him up so hopefully he'll be off to the docs tomorrow - a few nights on a small caravan bed didn't help.

I havent caught up with the threads - just too much to read so I hope everyone's ok.

PP - hope you're doing ok x

washing/ironing
cleaning
HM quorn cottage pies from freezer for tea
DH to repair the dents on my car
