    Oh dear :o, I knew there was a reason I did not get up at this time on a sunday, sorry dont think I can change the thread title, we will have to pretend all day :D

    RR - click edit post, then go advanced and you can change title if you want to!
    BB & Sistercas - hope all the poorlies feel better soon

    Beautiful day here, but a little chilly. Feel like I should go out and do something, but am also fancying a lazy day in! :rotfl:. I had a lovely night out with my friend last night, bit of a late one, hence the fancying a lazy day. I also have uni work to do. I may see if it's warm enough to sit in the garden and read.

    OS wise - WM has been on twice and drying outside, need to remake the bed later, dinner will be something from the freezer.

    Have a good day all

    My DD picked the bug up from Mooloo and I barrier nursed her as i was desperate not to catch it and for it to spread through the family. I think the kids thought it excessive but it was horrid and we managed to avoid it although I went off my food:eek: Some nasty things lurking this time of year xx
    I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer.
    Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.
    I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over and through me. When it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path.
    When the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.

    GWS wishes for all those suffering with the nasty lurgy going around.

    Just been catching up with the tail end of yesterday's thread...

    Miffy Mr LW mentioned the Peter Cook & Dudley Moore characters to me; I'd never heard of them! But I'm sure that's who the dogs were named after.:D When I first started doing dog-sitting, my very first guest was named Peggy Sue, so we surmised that her owners were Buddy Holly fans.:D I hope your back is feeling better today, btw.:o

    Pen-Pin how lovely to see you posting! Sorry you're having to see so much of the inside of the hossy, though. Sounds like your DD is doing brilliantly - she sure is a credit to you.:o

    Mr LW has been to the Farmers Market this morning, for our month's supply of cheese.:D Also got eggs, bread flour, cream and butter - and a tin of beeswax polish from the beekeeper who has a stall there.:D
    If your dog thinks you're the best, don't seek a second opinion.;)

    Arghh I'm having an ethical dilemma with myself. Money is quite tight now cos I'm still paying off Bahamas, and have a trip to Edinburgh next month. I have always bought free range eggs, but today when I went to Morrisons the cheapest option was 12 for £2.50 which 20p an egg, but the caged hens ones were equivilant of 10.8p each if I bought 18. I'm a veggie so do eat lots of eggs, but I don't know if it's 'wrong' to buy caged eggs <insert confused smiley>. I bought free range ones today, but not sure for future. Sadly don't know anyone who sells eggs, and the lovely FR egg stall I used to but from is no longer on my commute so would be pointless going there money wise.
