    thank you Elsie, I will take photgraphic evidence of his prowess in putting up a tent in a howling gale, no I meant a beautiful balmy evening, might as well get a laugh if nothing else.

    pdd my back garden rings all the bells except the dryness and if I leave door open you can escape the elements. Oh, children .hmmm cant guarrantee that either. but lakes and sea, pub ,restaraunt and tea rooms we can do:rotfl:I hate camping If it isnt en-suite I dont do it I know what you mean about needing a break tho.
    I have had a day where nothing has broken or fallen where chaos didnt descend into calamity and i feel serene.... either Im drunk, deluded or living someone elses life:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Good morning everyone.

    Mrsi - so glad you had one day where nothing went wrong.....its the start of something new.!!:T

    I agree with you now.....I used to go camping, but now I am older I also don't book anything unless its en-suite, and at least 3 stars. Now you know why we can't afford to go anywhere much these days too.!!:o

    Well, its another lovely day here, I'm off work today, and wait for it........I really can't find enough washing to warrant putting the washing machine on.!! :D So it will be a fairy lazy day for me. Will just flick the duster around and then enjoy my spare time. Have some FH to research for a friend so will be doing that later. I have also resigned myself to joining a slimming club, so there is a meeting at 4pm today, and I will be going.!! Look out for the new slim, younger, more beautiful me.!! (I know its a slimming class not a miracle cure, as my hubby pointed out.!!):rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Right, need coffee now, be back later.

    Morning All

    Its horrible here, pouring and dull.

    Mrs I glad you had a serene moment, can I please have the next one when it comes along???

    Re camping, Mr Dopey needs a holiday and this looks like the only way to get away, this time last year I was sitting in a nice 4 star hotel in Mallorca, sipping cocktails and generally chilling (oh and up past my neck in debt!!!) I've been doing a bit of research, so will see what can be found, it just makes me so mad at how dopey we really were, we haven't had the money to go the three/four hols a year for years but went anyway ifswim.

    Go with the weight loss Elsie, my new pills seem to be putting me off food, so long may it continue, I feel all the time that I want to be really tempted, and nothing fills the bill, must lead to some weight loss iyswim.

    Have a good day folks

    Rain day here folks but I dont mind cos I spent a couple of hours yesterday evening brushing sand and cement into the gaps on the patio slabs and was gonna water it in today. :):) A new month and the start of the second half of the year, I want to set goals for the end of it but I think if I can just continue to hold it all together it will be an achievement:):):) Back later after more coffee and a decision on am I going to join the NSD thread?

    who told you off nanna?

    it wisnae me!!!!

    Re camping, I think I need to book the 4 star hotel and put the tent up in that.................not probably the MSE thing to do.

    Mrs I come and join the NSD thread, we do great work there and go out really often, been to Newcastle, Brighton, Glasgow so far, going to Wombledon at the weekend, then a couple of birthday parties and a wedding and then a night in a back alley in Leeds with the local Chavvy ladies..............its fab fun and you actually don't spend so much money.............which is the point ifswim
