Nice people thread 2 - now even nicer

Gosh, I've missed pages. Plus the return of the Prodigal Poster (NDG).

Just got back from a very, very tiring weekend away, getting horrendously knackered/grubby, at our festival frolic, and enjoying the likes of Bob Dylan.

Nice to be back and use a clean loo, though.

It all happens in libraries you know. Hotbeds of unusual activity...

Reminds me of the time when a flasher visited our school. He had to beat a hasty retreat.

Instead of screaming and running away, some of our more forward Year 6 kids just yelled "Flasher!!" at the tops of their voices, and within seconds, 300 others were running towards the chap.....

As usual, the staff who were last to know...:o We didn't even see his heels as he legged-it.

morag thank you for that.

5 pages of courgette recipes & ideas!:eek:

courgette muffins are ace. But really for most of the summer I pan fry them, chop up a bit of garlic and stir it in at the end and a dribble of lemon juice or some chopped up lemon balm.

We can eat 2-3 courgettes a week

Congratulations on your first babies, there will be many more :rotfl:

I'm eyeing up the first cucumber

That's what happens when you're a fat b4st4rd with ill-fitting trousers, usually slung under the big wobbly belly. Maybe now he'll lose some weight and get some that fit him. Too many state-funded dinners no doubt.

Mr Hall has enlisted the help of fitness guru Rosemary Conley in a bid to lose weight.
He wants to lose up to three stone by next May and is walking to many civic engagements, the council confirmed.

3 stone ... and the rest.

Yep, have heard of that too. Lucky he didn't do it while I was there. You'd be surprised what damage you could do slamming it in one of those big art books (not that I know from experience you understand)...

Wow, carolt, you lucky, lucky girl.

I was just talking to DH about Dylan... wondering what he was up to at the moment.... unbelievable you should come on and say this!

We're in the middle of sorting out a load of old vinyl records, making sure we've got what we want to keep digitally and will be doing a car boot soon. Only it seems a good idea to try and find out whether any of them are worth more than car booting. Anyone know of a site to check these things out?
