    Delurking to say that Marigold is by far the best stock IMO!!..it's lush. And so sought after that when I have been to NZ I am ordered to take huge quantities to my friends..they can't get it there and they miss it so!

    Like the lunch of mushy peas by the way..;)

    Nigella says the same - never seen it. As the kids dad is at some point abandoning us all and moving to NZ maybe they can bring some back too?

    I think of calendulas and gloves.

    :D

    Mushy peas roolz.

    Yes that's true...also good as hand cream! :rotfl:

    NZ is a great place...especially for gorgeous tree ferns and some of the tallest trees in the world ;)

  • RT so glad you're feeling better and also endorsing Marigold.

    When meat is quality and cheap I can't pass it by.

    Same for fruit and yogs.

    Glad as a glad thing you're feeling better

    And I'm green but more pale than lime :)

    Big sighs here.

    We've said

    COUGH

    Cos of the trauma for the children

    COUGH

    we'll have to take them over one time.

    Just to make sure you know they get there safe.

    OK so we won't get near the house but I'm sure we can pass the time exploring.

    :D

    And if its ski season :D

    You know just to make sure the kids are safe.

    My kids are very small.

    Honestly.

    Seriously..am sure any Scot would love it. Blimey you're practically family over there!

    Skiing..v different to La T ;) you go out from say Christchurch for the day and then back. Fewer runs. Antiquated lifts I am told ( have only ever been in summer or spring).. But what the heck..it's gods own country :D

    Given their age and travel experience we may need disguises when we accompany them.

    :)

    And BZ - from the movies it looks epic.

    I learnt to ski in Scotland, everything is better than that. I'm sure.

    :D will remember to get kids to pack case with buliion :)

    :A thank you.

    Hey thats a good flower!!!!! And no MSG is good.

    In great news we're possibly heading to VC for holiday once the house is purchased :)

    Mr RG has had a review package at work to keep him sweet. So he's promised a holiday after we're sorted with a house.

    (This may take a while)

    I *might* have seen those tubs in the local old fashioned healthfood/treeshop/deli/baker/grocrer/xmas shop.

    I will investigate tomorrow.

    Its where I get my sushi ingredients, so its a good place.

    :A

    Thank you chaps.
