    The peasants are already revolting my job is to civilise them!

    I have 8 and 2/3rds

    Well good luck with that, I have never been civilised;)

    :eek: How many! You have my up most admiration. :T


    I don't believe anyone over the age of 30 should make cups of tea for themselves.. so I have minions to do it for me! :p

    And when I am old and REALLY senile I will never cook and I will invite myself to their houses every night for dinner and I won't be a nuisance because i'll go less thanonce a week.. D... sussed see!!..

    That sounds like a brilliant idea. I'm still not having anymore though.

    Hi all just nipping by to see what's on in the morning. :mad:kitchen:mad:

    Carlsberggal That feeling is normal when SS was there and something happened I was the same and I know my pal Marie who's son is serving with SS done the same. It's the relief that you know it's not them and then you instantly remember the family who have this news to deal with. Huge hugs honey. If you need a pal I'm here for you anytime x
