Evening all
Hubby was walking across the car park today when a female staff member stopped him to say 'I have a penis that I need removing' realising what she's said they both stared at each other, hubby replied 'I'll go & get my graffiti remover spray'.
Not much else going on round here.
Hugs Hester

Good evening,
sorry but nil report on the os front today due to being kept awake until midnight by the Queen Mary 2 blowing her horn as she sailed out of the Mersey! Nice idea, but maybe not from 11pm until midnight.
I dropped Grumpy the house elf off at school, and went back to bed until it was time to go and pick my friend up from work. I've had dinner at my neighbours (again, lazy me!), and now the boy is in bed, and I'm having an hour on the computer before I have an early night too.
Bairgainbird - well done Spike on the crawling. Grumpy the elf was a bum shuffler.
Taplady - his ideal job is out there somewhere, I hope he manages to stay positive until it finds him.
Take care all of you, and thanks for your kind messages.0 -

Evening everyone :hello:
Welcome to ThyKingdomCome :hello:
Your cakes look amazing Celyn. I do[STRIKE] rubbish looking [/STRIKE]rustic cakes only.;)
Cranky, we get blooming horns from the boats in the bay all the time. Most annoying though probably preferable to them running into eachother in the fog.
Enjoy your anniversary Churchie and Mr Churchie. Give him a smacker form me.
Tru...you are MIA again.
Well done to Spike :T
It's amazing the things you can do with a graffiti remover pen Hester :whistle:
Has anyone heard from Sunflower? She hasn't been online for a week.
Glad you're feeling a bit better Lamewolf. x
Day 5 in the child free house.... OH and I are still speaking to eachother :Dand actually having lots of fun but I am running out of things to do as the place is so damn tidy. :rotfl:
OS today consisted of bread making, chicken cleaning out, dog walking, washing, cleaning kitchen cupboards and trying to master more knitted flowers.
Tea was OH's favourite of sausage, egg and chips. Philistine that he is. :rolleyes:
Bye for now

Well, have really been MIA, haven't I? This Youth ORchestra exchange having really taken over my life. I've mostly stuck with OS ways, but just occasionally I had to give in and use the best available option.
Impressed the visitors with my quick and impressive meals. Had a meal or two out as well.
Now need to start and have a go at using things from the freezer again instead of 'shopping'. Half term is about to begin, so will use the chance to do some catching up around the house. Bits of it haven't been so clean in a long time, but the non communal areas (like our room) definitely need a sort out!
Time for bed though I think.[SIZE=-1]"Knowledge is knowing that a tomato is a fruit. Wisdom is not putting it in a fruit salad"[/SIZE]
