Maybe showing my age here but wasn;t that Shaw Taylor's catch phrase



That hair is enough to give anyone nightmares :rotfl:

And, really showing my age - somewhere I have an old black and white photograph with me sitting on my motorbike talking to Shaw Taylor when he was doing, I think, Drive In or some such TV programme

It is oven chips (Finest of course!) with some chopped up red onion and tomato drizzled in olive oil and sprinkled with salt and pepper. I shall fry an egg to garnish it with when it's ready.

Ooh, can I come for breakfast, please? Mine's likely to be muesli, as I've been eating far too much toast and butter recently.

Well of course I wasn't going to admit to being that old :D! Plus I was trying to be complimentary to Soappie:rotfl:, i.e. classy lady?

The late, great Gill Dando - but sadly not as goodlooking.

Again, didn't want to liken you to someone dead, I know you're feeling rough but not that rough!

Morning all!
Not sure what I'm supposed to be doing this morning as a friend invited us round today for lunch, she came to us last week, and when I sent a text yesterday to check if we are still welcome and what time she hasn't replied so I guess we are not welcome:( I am beginning to feel a bit used I think. Think you lot might refer to her as a toxic?? She doesn't moan all the time at me but I always come away feeling that I have been over generous or that she is incredibly tight?? She has a daughter who is 3 months younger than my DD and I always save my DDs clothes for her daughter. If I were in that situation then I would buy the LO a packet of chocs now and again as a thank you but in 2 years she just hasn't bothered. Am I being mean or is she just tight?

Anyway flying wise I have
WM x 1
emptied DW and put away
half filled it again
made 3 beds
sorted a load of washing
s&s kitchen
took dry washing off rads and put new stuff on.

right need to find my list- i am going to leave bed changing until sunday as I only did it then.
