Ladyshopper

Afternoon all. Been at work all weekend, dealt with 4 prisoners yesterday and was worn out!!

Today kids had orthodontist appointment. DD is well chuffed as orthdontist has now said she doesn't need headgear (she was supposed to be fitted for it this time!). DS got told off for not cleaning his brace properly, I thought he was scrubbing it with a toothbrush each night but its seems not, monkey that he is!

From there took them back to school, then straight to tesco. Then had a text to say packs of 12 pepsi max were £2 in Netto, so went there and stocked up (I know, I know, its not good for me in the slightest, but its all I drink, so may as well get a bargain!).

Have done some washing and tidying, could do with doing more though!

Just about to put tea on (veg curry, rice and nan bread). Think DS is going to youth club tonight, will have to check when he gets in.

Anyway, enjoy the rest of your evening.

Hope the poorlies feel better (and hope you stop feeling sick MSD).

Gemma B I would love to go to Sidmouth. Until I do Donkey cam makes me smile.
JackieGlasgow Hope the pain eases very soon.

Am not going to risk any more messages just in case.
Am LOVING the entire ELECTION :j:j:j:j

Mark bought me the three main manifestos Fantastic.:T I can't get enough.

Anyway, after a very frustrating day tea will be very simple:o am going to have some lemon spaghetti(bought it from Lidil-yummy) with a creamy mushroom sauce. Dead simple but just what I fancy.
Managed a load of washing this morning and have one merrily spining away as I type this.

Will (hopefuly) post tomorrow wihtout any problems(everything crossed please)

Hugs as needed.

LadyGrim hugs and prayers to you. Have a safe journey.

Have a nice evening.

Annie, where do you live? I've decided I don't want my own dinner and am coming to you. Cheeky boy can see to himself.

Its not that impressive honest. The lidil spaghetti is deeply lovely(its a pity they dont have it all year round:()

The sauce is just a mushroom sauce using up all the various mushrooms that dwell in my fridge:o I also use some of my dried woodland mushrooms(under £10 for a HUGE container from COSTCO)
I make the sauce with lots of butter and a touch of garlic. As I say dead easy and comforting.

(I have also been known to occasionally use a tin of Campbells:o:o:p:o:o ) Not tonight though.
BTW-I am a Manc!:j

I saw that after I posted. I don't get to eat stuff like that because my lot are so fussy about cream etc. OH thinks it's all just pure fat and has got the boys thinking the same! I work very close to a Lidl so will be going tomorrow for some of that delicious sounding pasts and also the quorn which is £1 a bag there ATM I'll be coming to Manchester soon, so may need feeding!;)

Jackie Lidil don't always carry it but it is worth stocking up on when they do.
I also want to give you a huge thank you. I didn't know Lidil even sold quorn never mind having it at £1 a bag:j:j:j:j
Guess where I am going tomorrow.
Thank you and a big sloppy kiss to you as well.:p

See you in Manchester.

You're welcome, it appears to be this weeks offer I've never seen it there before, either! Big kiss back! X

meter and a half for hemming. it's 44" wide, which I thought it would be, and to have 26" wide with a gather, you'll need about 32" plus seam allowance, and I am presuming the height is 22", so you'll need 47 or 48 inches for that. God crap explaination. Meter and a half. Do you not have a fabric remnat shop nearby? I've never thought of buying fabric over the net.

Awww thanks so much, will order it today, the height was 22" :T, we do have fabric shops nearby, but I have not seen the material I wanted in any of them. Thanks so much xx



Annie, what is lemon spaghetti ?? I have never heard of it, but is sounds lovely x

snoozer

Annie, I'll have to get some of the lemon pasta as well. My DS manages a Lidl store and he's supposed to tell me when certain things are on offer but he always seems to forget. His District Manager who he really gets on well with is leaving and has recommended DS to replace him. I hope he does but he is so young that I think they might balk at it (he's 23).

I spoke to DD on skype earlier, she's in Hue in Vietnam, moving on to Hanoi in the morning. She's got 6 weeks 3 days left (not that I'm counting) and in that time is planning to go to Borneo, Bali and Singapore.

I'm planning to have banana on toast in a few minutes then I've got to dash off to my meetig. Hopefully I'll be able to put the towels I washed away before I go. I've recently re-organised all my towels - rolling them up instead of folding, it somehow seems to be much neater. I've evn rolled all my cleaning cloths and stored them upright in a basket, DH thinks that's a bit anal but it pleases me!
