    you want those ready made bags, 2 bbqs this year and both were good from them.


    enjoy firing the pr disastros. just liked you lot on fb. nice front shop pics

    I won't enjoy it as I could do without the brain clutter it creates but will enjoy the feeling of getting them out of our biz after they conned their way in.

    We have acute Bull S*** radar too...but as the 3rd week progressed we kind of sussed that what was promised just wasn't going to happen however we gave them a chance.

    They tried the 'bait' con too.....delay things ...string things out so we paid another month (or worse, signed for the whole year).

    The worst bit was the out and out lying. Can't call it anything else....was far worse than a bit of a blag...utterly dishonest. Robbers.

    I have stupidly been watching a film and now don't feel I can go to bed till its over. Do others go to bed when tired and just wonder how it played out? (I know what happens I read a spoiler to convince me to go to bed)

    I started this one because Michaels told me too. I think it was michaels.
    I think that was suggested rather than told?

    My DW (who I love very much) is terrible for this - she insists we put a movie on (usually there seems to be one starting at 10 then by 10.15 she is fast asleep but I'm in the 'I have started watching a movie and need to watch to the end mode so at midnight I end up turning off the TV and light knowing that I will pay for it by feeling terrible when the alarm goes off :(

    Anyone got any suggestions for what to do in S Devon when PN is away?
    I think....

    [/QUOTE/] nah, if it were I'd have only gun dogs, terriers or lurchers. All super dogs, just not ''me''. well, apart from the lurcher and the odd breed of terrier. Irish wolfhounds in particular I think are often slightly reluctant home county tyupe dogs: people who want to be barons etc. but I was brought up with them, big dog will be the last. :(:(:(:(

    If dh were here I'd be asleep too! But he's not so I'm doggedly watching this film.

    well, it tastes healthy any way. Its better with mushrooms in IMO, but looks dreadful then, without it looks beautiful. I'll eat it this late in the year, but most people prefer it with the freshest youngest earliest nettles. Me, I like free food

    Mushrooms are evil, wrong, and the spawn of Satan.

    why on such a warm evening are the cats competeing for who can smother me first?

    Cats have a completely different attitude to heat from any mere mortal human.

    Our black and white cat used to lie under the woodburning stove for hours. It was too hot to put your hand in there for 10 seconds!

    My darling brother is home from Korea! He's been there teaching English since last September (although he came home for a fortnight over Christmas and New Year). He's back for a month, before starting a new year's teaching there.

    It made me realise how no-one in our family actually uses his real name any more - my Mama texted me to say, "Bruv's home!" and Isaac said, "yay! We've never seen Uncle Bruv for ages!"

    I wouldn't have many suggestions even if I weren't here... as I don't live in S Devon :)

    Try: Kents Cavern.

    Too true. I do like some mushrooms on toast while watching the mighty Tottingham however.
