    Cheer up Allie and ignore the old bat!!!

    Thanks 3dogs, i eventually just busied myself in another room to get away, besides i found a years worth of clean washing to sort through so i still felt productive :)
    Oh Allie (((hugs))) nasty old bat, put a huge smile on your face and ignore her.

    Well done on all your hard work in the garden:j

    Spoon, thanks, the garden looks much better now, a lot to do still but at least i have a wannabe veggie patch (it will be harvest-able next year!)
    Allie - well done on the garden - and don't let the MIL get to you. What is it about MIL's that gets under our skin so much.

    After my disaster with the raspberry jam last week b'cos of the power cut, I'm now waiting for the 2nd lot to finish and then I can have some on toast in the morning, Yummmm.

    I've no idea why she gets under my skin so much but im pretty sure its because she doesnt think im good enough for her wee boy :mad:

    whats the jam like? any chance you could send a teaspoon my way with some on?!! nom nom nom!

    Hi all, its taken ages to get a connection and laptop keeps crashing. Had a great night with numpty, he is a legend!:T

    Learned a lot about cash back but it wasnt all shop talk. I left Numpty wondering how I could go for 2 1/2 hours on 6 pints of coke and not take a pee? Easy I had one of Lord Hoorays pee bags strapped to my ankle. I dont allways have that silly smile on my face.

    Walking back to the Rolls Canardly was a problem as it is designed to hold 1 litre not 6. If Numpty thought my ankles swell because of a medical problem he's wrong.

    I had to stop twice at the sevices to open the drain valve!:eek::eek:

    Niddy your right about him being a Jock:beer::beer::beer:

    Numpty had your share mate.

    Next time We will meet somewhere in the middle. Tixy is Yate's still down in the centre. I was base in somewhere in the middle for many years. Its a place where a night out is a GOOD NIGHTOUT.

    Handy has a tinny now time for a real beer before turning in.:beer:

    Regards and best wishes to you all.

    Seriously I couldn't organise a !!!! up in a brewery, I can only think I might have had a glass or 2 of vino in edinburgh to have agreed it was a good idea:o. I might have agreed nottingham was a good place for a meet rather than volunteering to actually do anything practical about it :D
    For instance I haven't even got round to booking a hotel for the end of July.:eek:

    Okay well my kitchen might be completed around about 2014, I'll organise a DFW meet then.:p
    I'm sure that's not true Tixy, there's no way you're slower than me at completing a kitchen. Took me 3 years to finish mine in 2005!!:eek::rotfl:

    A quiet bump from me in the depths of a stormy night. Thunder and lightening here tonight, still muggy as hell. But Nargle is chilled for now and sends loads of cool and calming vibes to all DFWs everywhere.

    The weather wasnt too bad Spoon, no rain, a little bit overcast at times but nice and warm, maybe a bit too sticky as well...
    I brought sticks of rock back for everyone....:rotfl:

    Hi everyone
    Numpty and Handy - glad you had a good evening:j

    I have to agree with swanfan and Allie, can't see much wrong with getting squiffy on scrumpy:j:j

    Tixy - DFW meet sounds great, good of you to volunteer to organise it!:rotfl:

    BL - hope the jam making goes well tomorrow

    Allie - don't let MIL get to you, big smile always unnerves them:D:D

    3Dogs - happy carbooting tomorrow
