    *enjoy paid work* chutney sounds lovely well done on the foraging in and both outdoors (old vinegar being excellent indoor foraging)

    Careful out there if cutting back in the wind xx

    And brekkie pray tell what you having..........................

    Brekkie was oats, manuka honey, linseeds, pumpkin seeds and sunflower seeds, with Sainsbo Basics cornflakes on top cos I like 'em :D lots of anti-arthritis stuff in them there seeds :j

    I'll be careful - see below :)
    Love the idea of indoor foraging :D Have a good one KC!

    Isn't the concept of indoor foraging fantastic! Much better than "storecupboard" :T:T:T

    The day *will* be good :rotfl:thanks Cheery :)
    Morning! Your chutney sounds lovely :)

    Yeah watch out for those red haired Scotswomen (well in my case currently a bit multi-coloured but generally red-ish... :rotfl:)

    Have a good day :)

    I hope its delicious ...

    Redhaired/multicoloured Scotswomen :j life is very different (for the better :kisses3:)

    As for the pruning .... a little branch has fallen, i.e. been torn off, into the neighbour's garden :o its *bad* out there. I'm certainly not stepping over the doorstep, let alone wielding a saw right now.

    In fact, I was just on internet banking - hadn't done any for a few weeks, and omigod, how secure is hsbc now :eek::eek::eek: its like you've got to break in to Fort Knox to access your own money - what they've now done *must* decrease the amount of hacking - absolutely astonishing.

    Morning all! Z, I'm not sure I'm following you on that one, but whatever floats your boat, and its such an *unusual* boat :D

    We actually the joke is a recycled Jennifer Saunders joke about Cher “Look at Cher. One more facelift and she'll be wearing a beard."

    Is there anyone with a more delicate command of English than I have who'd like to explain it..?

    Hello, back from my weekend jaunts. Thought about you at the weekend when I got stuck on a train in Harpenden, thought you lived near there and text Pippi to ask then realised that I was getting my HHs mixed up :)

    Will catch up later. Sticking to my new internet rules from today. Lunchtime browsing only in the week and only one hour per day during the weekend. Well that is the plan

    **waves at MrsMoo**

    Mmmmmm, I'm not sticking to my plan very well :(

    I also went into town, as the wind died right down, did the banking - and came back *extraordinarily* grumpy :( a small part of it (truly, a small part) might be that I think I've lost a £50 note that was a session payment ... can't find it anywhere, and I *did* take my bankings out of the house and not actually cash them last week some time, tho I can't remember quite when .... blast!

    But otherwise, I'm just really grumpy. Ahem. Normal service will be resumed. I did have some bad news this morning, and I'm running out of excuses to avoid doing what I know I should be doing .... have to get my act together then....

    Awww.... thank you!

    Love the chocolate, thats made me feel better already. I bought some snickers in the coop yesterday (4 for £1!!!) and put them in the freezer to avoid temptation - I finish work at 9pm tonight, I think I might take one out of the freezer ready for then ....

    you have a good evening.

    Thanks Cheery! Must go down to the freezer *now* to take it out :D



    ETA - erm, I found the £50 :) I *thought* I wasn't very upset about it! I banked it on the 2nd .... the snickers bar, however, is still defrosting, so will have to be eaten :D
