    Woo hoo to that letter! And the friend - tho boo to the plumbing explosion, and omigod, what were you *on* on Saturday :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: you got so much done!

    Good for you :j:j:j

    The only thing I've done in that vein is I bought some "live herbs" from Sainsbo - coriander and basil - they're sitting happily on the windowsill right now, total cost £2.19, but I'll split them up and get at least four pots each from them. If I can find my pots, oops.

  • Hooray for live herbs! I've planted some basil, although never had much luck with it from seed before.

    Feeling a bit achy from the tree-chopping/pulling adventures - they had massive roots!

    I bet you're achey! Still, its a good, positive ache, you'll be fine.

    I'm absolutely rubbish with seeds - I know why, I drown them, and I always mean to water them less, but I can't get the balance right, so this seems like a good compromise.

    Hi all, sorry my internets been down at home this weekend so had to wait till I get into work to reply.

    Not sure if it will be a big wedding, I would prefer something smaller but we have large families and don't want to upset anyone! I think i'll be quite happy being engaged for the timebeing!

    Pooky your wedding sounded lovely, I would like to be very hands on with my wedding with regards to the food/cake etc so you have given me some ideas :)

    Squizz my partner grows chilli plants, pepper plants etc, has been for quite a few years now, there are so many different kinds to grow!

    This weekend I went out for drinks and a dance with some friends on Friday then had a very very quiet weekend since then. Made a nice change...... hardly spent any money (as I don't actually have any!) and cooked lots of lovely food :D

    Feeling very happy today as its Valentines, out for a meal tonight (won a voucher in a raffle :D) and then home for maybe some wine hehe.

    You's have plans for Valentines day? xxx
  • Sounds like a great weekend :)

    Not really bothering with Valentines day. neither of us are that bothered about it. Might see what chocolates/ pink fizzy wine we can find reduced tomorrow though :D

    My posh frock wedding in April is being done in a very mse way, tho I don't think they come on here ..... the invites went out by email! They're paying for it themselves, no rich parents (my ex SIL is pretty well off, but now retired, I think, and she's the best off, so no help anywhere) you have to spend on what really matters.

    Fantastic.. I think if we ever do it will be a very quiet occasion.

    Just had the minor brainwave to look for a French version of Groupon for when we go to Paris - oooh restaurant vouchers :D

    Groupon.fr does indeed exist "Regalez-vous en plein quartier St-Germain des Pres avec 2 entrees, 2 plats, 2 desserts et 2 flûtes de champagne pour 29 euros au lieu 68 euros au Bistro 34" :T
