    & How right. Your post was well worth a dunked biscuit in me tea. I remember Mt Whack, sorry, Rack. He took time to run our class after school, encouraged us all, from simple arty bits, through maths and English. A proper teacher, who always wore a gown. Never knew why he did, until I sat on the 15 in fornt of the Lord Dawson in 1999. So there was no gazumping the clothes. Hugs to Frith as well.

    Note the Chocolate for the current Ms Sonny

    4 Done the butcher run for the month, chicken (sorry polis, but it is from butcher and free range stock. he only kills what he can sell, never from the emporiums) Roast Chicken, prepped and freezing. Chicken Beast tanndoor style, flavoured and freezing. Tonites though, eat this girls.

    Brewing away on the stove. Recipe:
    Chicken Beast. Natural Yogut, 2 lemons, chilli, turmeric, coriander, fresh brooooot ginger, cummin, crushed, masala and garlic. Mix with hands. Ready to grill.

    3 And not only that, brewed chicken wings as well for the wobbleade this evening, snogged up to Ms Sonny. Film nite in.

    2 Give £50 to the RBL this year.

    1 The right way round, we live. Do not use the emporiums where Evil is sold. There is no happiness in evil, this morn I left my trolley in Mr S as some staff were dressed up as witches. there is no call for this. I took direct action and removed some signs before leaving the store.

    Some among us may say that what I have done is wrong, but just for the record in 1984, while being shot at as well, we dropped food parcels in Ethiopia. Not on the needy heads, but away in a safe place. Robbing !!!!!!!s would then sell the food. Only the rich got it, those in need still suffered. From the air, the ants would scamper, but some were evil! Evil has no place here. It is not a joke. Man is evil. The staff at S in S**** are evil. both to me are the same.

    TILAMS apologises to rant.

  • Sonny your grub looks yummy

    Frith ((hugs)) sorry to hear about exclusion :mad: hope your younger sons solicitor is going to take them to task over this

    Decided to buy a bookcase for bedroom (books all over floor) and opted for low budget @rgos... but item looked ok and fairly decent reviews.... big mistake :( said item arrived and no instructions, poor quality, loads of screws but none of holes match up .... have knocked it together but gust of wind would probably blow it over (not that I have wind in the bedroom of course ;) ) ... have emailed customer services but dont hold out much hope and couldnt be bothered to send it back

    so, following on from this morning ....

    4. Nice lunch of home made soup
    5. all door frames & bedroom doors sanded down ready for glossing tomorrow
    6. hoovered and cleaned up mess from sanding
    7. not felt too cold as have been moving around so much
    8 leftover roast dinner for tea from when mum and dad were here

    Have a good evening x

  • I have had the current Ms Sonny in tears, she chopped the onion. Tea has bin done. Red tie curry, with green worms. Served with Special Fried Rice and them kerrrrrrrrbabs on tortilla chips. Pure over indulgence again I know. But thinks Ms Sonny will soon be pulling up her pinky and donning her marigolds.

    Hope everyone chins up. Take time. Off to rugger at Chunnel the morning, so dog burger, pint and ...
