    Morning Everyone! :)

    Had a lovely day yesterday. Invited to an engagement party BBQ. Lovely garden - lots of old apple trees to sit in the shade under and a swimming pool for the kids. They stayed in it ALL day - had to drag them out for 10 minutes to eat! So lucky for them as when date was set the weather was was sooooooooooo cold.

    Morning all, BBQ later!


    I got your adddress, can I come over? What time you want us to be there:D:D:D:D. I don't like beef/ sausages/ lamb. I do eat pork but not alot. May I request for seafood : Madagascar prawns/squids/fish (fish will have to be halibut, cod, sea bass, sea bream, red snapper and mackerel only) please.;);)

    I don't like butter/margarine in my cob. Yes I only take 1 cob:D I don't mind margarine on my sweetcorn but it must be sprinkle with a little bit of salt:p

    My food cannot be contaminated with beef/lamb & sausages cos' I ain't going to eat it, if I can taste one of them in my food:p:p:p:p:p



    Back to my ebay case : The buyer was not willing to destroy the discs & he said he can play them on PS1 using an additional lead and was willing split the cost down to £4 refund. Sometime I think those buyers are pulling a fast one:mad:. Anyway, I refunded him as I can't be bothered to go back & forth with him. I sold another lot of discs Final fantasy (total 12 discs & this buyer is happy with them) the same time with no probs.
    RIP my dear dear parent : Mum aged 62 (17/5/1990) & Dad aged 89 (23/1/2012)

    Glad you got it all sorted in the end doc. Sounds like the goys a bit of a twonk to me. Hope you got a good price for your final fantasy games as some are rare now and worth good money

    Hi everyone, what a lovely day we are having.

    Too hot for me to sit outside, I am fair skinned and burn easily.

    So make sure you have your sunscreen on folks and avoid burning.

    Dr WW - unfortunately ebay is full of idiots, time wasters, crooks, and pain in the backsiders. But we have to put up with them as there are also some nice, kind, generous ebayers as well.

    Sorry Dr W W - missed your post getting ready for BBQ :p
    Had some lovely tuna skewers, we had a few pork ribs plus the usual stuff including some jerk chicken drumsticks (lovely!).
    I have one sweetcorn left in the freezer from the allotment - not sure about the salt thing though ;)
    Picked eldest daughter up from her new weekend job and she drove back with 'L' plates on, called in to my parents and picked up newer BBQ (old one nearly had it - donated for free, excellent!).
    I will drop kids off at school tomorrow and go to allotment - may need a bit of water :D, I'm going to enjoy next week - holiday yeah!
    If at first you don't succeed, try, try, try - oh bu99er that just cheat :D
