CMD you've me thinkin of home with that phrase. Reminds me of my Granny saying it about me when I was out on the farm. The amount of physical work I did during the day would double my appetite and she'd often say it to my mother when she collected me.

I bet working on the farm built up an appetite alright. OH said when they used to do the hay at home his mother would put on pots and pots of spuds and the men would just eat all around them!

Wow - 4 in October. She must be so independent now. What age are they when you can bring them to a cafe and they will sit quietly (i.e. without throwing food!)

Havent done hay in years, the grandmother would bring a pot of spuds out and we'd eat them with our hands, and take milk straight from the tank to have with them...I'm getting teary now, dunno if anyone saw the pics D put up of our trip back home but the farm is effectivly abandoned now which really upset me, and gets me every time I think back to how things used to be out there.

Sorry for making you a bit teary NIM. Was there no-one to take over? I suppose farming is hard to make money these days. It must be hard to see it abandoned now though.
