    Bananas desired = 2
    Bananas located = 2
    Manky bananas = 0
    Bananas consumed = 2 :D.

    I was more worried about cleaning up squished banana! :p

    I'm good thanks! Yep still skating - did about 1 1/4 hrs on the ice before work this morning! :D Prepping for a test next month. :eek: I do wonder about my sanity sometimes! :o

    How is life treating you? No more accidental house purchases since I was last here?

    No houses bought, accidentally or otherwise :)

    Only bananas. And mushrooms. Bought a big box reduced to 89p this morning. Made a pot of garlic mushrooms and just tried one - em....... no vampires rond here tonight :D.

    SW KFC & chips for dinner with salad, coleslaw and the mushrooms :). And wine of course. Oh yes 2Q==dog.jpg

    Happy weekend :T.

    • banking
    • arrange to pick up boots :)
    • fight the paper gremlins
    • boot a table for Beefeater tomorrow night - 1/2 price if you book :T
    • contact Santander - locked out of account and they were supposed to send me new details
    • make MORE soup. I think the Clangers have moved in :rotfl:. Judging by the cupboard it will be leek and sweet potato. Surprisingly, there are a lot of recipes :D.
