Beef SC for Dinner tonight with loads of veg, fruit and yoghurt for pud.
Lunch will be salad sarnies of some sort, cheese I expect

WM on but no way will it dry outside so it will be relegated to airers, dont want to use the TD if I can help it.

Got ironing to do but I think I'll give that pleasure a miss and get the sewing done, there is a mounting pile that really needs doing.
Also got some premmie baby things to finish and a sailors hat so thats me sorted for today.:D

Had a nice night at my friends last night we managed to sink a couple of bottles of Chardonnay Isla Negra very nice it was too, 3 for £10 at ASDA must get some more,

Morning everyone :hello:

Sunny here again N9Eav :hello: :cool::D
Sorry about the MOT Bitsy
Meant to say yesterday..Good news about OH's residency Celyn. :j

Thanks for your concern about my hair/fire raising incident yesterday. I just had a run in with the gas flame on the hob. That'll teach me to multitask.

Ended up at the beach yesterday. it's a really remote one so there's never anyone else there and we came upon a red deer hind and her fawn. It was lovely just sitting watching them.
Lots of holiday makers here now the English schools have broken up. I can't get what I call them past the swear filter unfortunately. We're on a main tourist walk to a tourist attraction so we have hoards of Japanese teenagers walking up the road this morning and taking pictures of eachother in front of my window boxes. :rolleyes::o

Jobs today...

Put away the ironing
Change the beds
Hoover downstairs
Swish the bathroom and kitchen
water the greenhouse.

Am taking the girls out to where we were supposed to go yesterday but we left it to late.

Lamb kebabs and more salad from the garden for tea.

Take care everyone

Haribo x

Greetings OSers!

Last night it was cold wet and dark by 9 p.m and I was thinking a lot of negative things like the summer is over.
Well today I am banishing those thoughts. There's not too much I can change in my life but I can stop that negativity thing.
Today I am paying £75 towards my sons holiday....only £100 to go.
Might manage a walk.
Dinner soup and some sort of pudding.
I thought I might buy new table mats . One thing we have to do is eat so might as well make it pleasant!
Also I need to force myself to do a job application. Sometimes when they are last minute I seem to do a better one.
I'm glad I'm not shelling out for a holiday in the bad weather. I know that's mean for those who are but it makes me feel better!:rotfl:

Raining here -on my washing, and no I will not be washing it again:D

DS2 has apparently only got one pair of trousers apart from his school ones. Consequently we are off to town to buy him a couple more pairs plus some more pants. DS1 needs more socks, fortunatley DD has plenty of everything.

We have grandmothers and aunts and cousins visiting DS1 this afternoon ('twas his birthday yesterday). Can't say I'm looking forward to it at all. I have to get tea ready in the afternoon because of DD's swimming lesson at 5 and I have an enoooormous pile of ironing. Think I'm just going to get on with it-they aren't coming to see me after all.

Kids and OH are off to Cornwall camping next Wed:j:jPeace and quiet;)

As the weather's miserable I think we might have a hefty soup for tea -something spicy with beans and tomato with a pud-maybe a cake? Lunch will be toast and chicken liver pate;)
