    hi guys :wave:
    timmy d is not one of my favoured 007s but it's good to catch them again. Plan was to collect them all, but we all know what happens to best made strategies sad-smiley-065.gif
    still. Ukgp tomorrow, so there's not an awful lot getting done in here this w/e i'm afraid cheeky-smiley-001.gif



    hope you don't mind my posting ^^^ again; thought it may help with ideas for lunches as the chat seems to have swayed into that direction a little of late, particularly the ones twix the two mixed-smiley-009.gif.
    i had a lovely combination yesterday--granary bap with tuna & sweetcorn on a bed of watercress medium-smiley-068.gif--i'd not had thought to add the greenery myself!

    i have managed 5 nsds up to yesterday so not too shoddy a start to the month, but i must have an eye test (& almost definite new spex) & also a trip to the dentist (again--evens bet on treatment required) so have the paramedics on stand-by for the :eek: When they give me the bills! What is it with teeth this month? I know we enjoy an outing, but can't we find somewhere more exciting than a fang-fixer :rotfl:

    this has cheered me up liked the oo7 bit and by the time i got to the bit about the fang fixer i couldnt stop laughing so thank bmf really needed a giggle and who better than you

    No NSD for me today. There was a box of 36 grab size nik naks for £1! Thought that was too much of a bargain to pass up on. (they were slightly out of date, but still edible).

  • Evening all,

    Hope you've all had a lovely day. NSD #7 for me today :j But, guess where we are going tomorrow??? The Dentist! Have been thinking (aka trying to guess) what the bill will look like. Our insurance covers some but we have to pay the rest even for the DC :eek:

    Lots of cleaning and working here today. I've just been having a think about what store supplies I need to use up by the weekend. BigMummaF has given me plenty of ideas - think I might try Weetabix cake tomorrow (depending on what the dentist says :D)

    Need to start packing at some point too :rotfl: The DC always seem to go into meltdown as soon as the suitcases come out so trying to delay as long as possible.

    See you tomorrow!

    Stapler -what are niknaks?!

    Niknaks are tasty little morsels that are similar to crisps, but look like small sticks. Hot and Spicy is my favourite:D, but there are many other flavours;). Try them asap.
    If you've nothing decent to say, perhaps you shouldn't say anything.

    NSD no 5 safely in the bag. :j

    Hope your ulcers heal quickly Jinty, you've had quite a time of it. I have a couple of months before I embark on getting something to fill the gap along one side of my mouth.

    Well done on your run today Cheryl, :T and good luck for your next one tomorrow.

    Been out in the garden on and off today, dodging the showers. Had a really bad headache this morning before the big plump of rain dumped on us. Feeling much better now headache-wise, but now tired after all the work I've done. Still lots more to do, that'll keep me out of trouble tomorrow.

    Mind you, DH and I are heading off to H0m£b&se tomorrow to look at the flooring in their sale. I meant to pop in on Thursday, but completely forgot. :mad: We need new laminate flooring for the conservatory...the boards have worn through to the insulation in the area by the computer!! If we do decide to buy something, then we will do a mini food shop as well, and make Monday an NSD instead.
    :j

    May head out for a bit of planting and watering now...it's lovely and cool now. Mind you, the women's football is on atm. England's match against France has gone to penalties...so may listen to it for a bit :D. Ooh, that's the first goal saved by England.

    Listen to me...I don't do football, and I'm Scottish!! Mind you...I am a woman (at least last time I looked!) , so that counts!!!!
    :rotfl:

    Have a great Sunday all....oooh it's 3-3 now...not sure if I can take this!
