    Teapot am so sorry for your loss, I struggled for the right words, and then I found this:-
    What moves through us is a silence, a quiet sadness, a longing for one more day, one more word, one more touch, we may not understand why you left this earth so soon, or why you left before we were ready to say good-bye, but little by little, we begin to remember not just that you died, but that you lived. And that your life gave us memories too beautiful to forget


    I'm sure you know what I am trying to express. Hugs xxxx

    Horace, both Mr T and Mr S do turkey drumsticks with the bone in very cheaply in their basics range - £1.61 in Sainsbugs which is a lot less than £5.99. They are not that hard to bone. It's the tendons you need to worry about. The secret is to run a knife around the knuckle end to cut the tendons and then trace them back into the flesh of the leg with the point of the knife until you can cut them free. Then you will be left with a big bit of meat which you can spread with some stuffing mix, roll up and tie with string at one inch intervals. Then wrap it in foil and cook it in the oven, peeling back the foil for the last 20 minutes.

    This is really nice. I usually do a slightly more special supper on Saturday evenings and this is good enough to qualify as special despite being cheap
    It doesn't matter if you are a glass half full or half empty sort of person. Keep it topped up! Cheers!

    I might get something else Mary - I like to use my local butcher because it keeps him in work, this turkey thigh was huge and all tied. I may just have a look in Mr M's to see what he has got (when not buying meat fron the prison mum gets her meat from Mr M). What I do know is that a sprout top will feature somewhere in the Christmas meal and certainly in the run up to Christmas.

    Thank you all for your congratulations for my 6 months achievements. Have planned the next 6 months and am about to put that in my diary.
    On another level - MG you have a lot to answer for. I asked BIL to fit me a draught excluder as OH can't do the cutting or screwing. His response was " It won't be this side of Christmas" - annoyed me to say the least:eek:then said to OH " if one of my internet friends can build a room for her little one I can put a poxy draught excluder on!" Doing it tommorrow.

    Teapot I'm so sorry for your loss.

    I haven't been particularly productive today (bar a bit of money shuffling from one account to another) but I did spend most of the morning at the hospital. I am now on transplant list for a new kidney!

    Love it!:T:T:T Well done with the draught excluder.

    I've got a heck of a lot of things done out of sheer frustration that other people [STRIKE]can't[/STRIKE] won't do them.

    My motto is "S*d 'em, I'll show 'em".
    But how can you know what you want till you get what you want and you see if you like it?

    TEAPOT like Fantasia I struggle for words so I turn to poetry. My heart goes out to your Godson's family and you and your family.
    My favourite poet is Rabrindraneth Tagore and this seemed fitting.

    Peace my heart...

    Peace, my heart, let the time for the parting be sweet.
    Let it not be a death but completeness.
    Let love melt into memory and pain into songs.
    Let the flight through the sky end in the folding of the wings over the nest.
    Let the last touch of your hands be gentle like the flower of the night.
    Stand still, O Beautiful End, for a moment, and say your last words in silence.
    I bow to you and hold up my lamp to light you on your way.

    ~Rabindranath Tagore
    Some days there aren't any trumpets, just lots of dragons. Courage doesn't always roar. Sometimes courage is the quiet voice at the end of the day saying, I will try again tomorrow -- Mary Anne Radmacher
