    Good to see you scotmumof3!I'm glad that your internet connection has been fixed.
    I was getting worried,and even wondered if I'd teased you once too often! :o
    Well done on reaching your second target of 20! :j:j:j
    Are you going to raise your target again?

    What have you missed?Well,did you hear that Igor and Tatty's nuptials were torn asunder due to Tatty running off with Scroggins,leaving Igor jilted?
    He's pretty much back to his old self,apart from the odd sob or two.He's now looking for a bride on the internet....

    Cheffie has used his connections to get the journos from 'Booger Off' magazine ('Hello' pooh poohed the idea) to cover our Summer Ball next weekend.Yes,more pretty frocks,champers and mini quiches in the offing,along with the odd egg sarnie and cup of tea!

    There will be a raffle (care to contribute something?),cabaret and band.We have secured the services of a band called TGOB.
    Strangely enough the initials are the same as 'The Good Ole Boys'...bit worrying,that....
    Igor and Cheffie have their heads locked together deciding the menu.They have already decided on a chocolate fountain.Don't worry,I've hidden the Ex-Lax.As I said before,we don't want a repeat of last year's fiasco.I don't think the drains would cope. :eek::eek:
    There are a few crates left of Olde Fartinge Bishoppe,thankfully.
    So,that's the way it stands at the mo.
    I've only missed a few days :eek::eek:
    I knew poor wee Igor had had his heart broken but an online bride :eek: Not sure that's the way to go but I guess if he doesn't send any pictures theres still a chance :rotfl:
    Posh frocks and champers yumm yumm... i will have to go and see what lies in scotmums copious wardrobe.:) No more haggis inspired themes though it just made me hungry all night :D
    A prize for the raffle hmmm I suppose I could donate my haggis and stoat fur undermentionables (I've even taught them to sit and fetch :rotfl:)
    TGOB yes that is worrying:eek:Who arranged the band was it nargle ???:)
    Today was not a NSD as DH and I went out for a day trip and bought chips :):)
    Debt free as of 29.10.2020 🎉😁

    NSD 12today. DD2 moved into her own little room today so now have pile of stuff for cs and for the dump. OH wont go to the dump so the stuff will probably sit around for ages. OH went to gave a consultation about the pain he is in and now we are waiting for a date for an operation on his neck so saving money is now very much been brought to the fore front.

    Scotmum - I agreed to the band being hired because they apparently play for free, as long as we feed them and supply plenty of beer. As marmite has got a secret never-ending supply of Old Farting Bishop underneath the floorboards in her room (eighth floorboard from the door and just to the right of the antique commode) I thought it was a no-brainer. Apparently Igor told her there was an advert pinned up in the Post Office window, or was it in the local pub? So we have Igor to thank for sourcing the entertainment for Friday night.

    Got a slight feeling of unease, though, the Nargle radar is twitching.....

    In the meantime Chef wants to use the Cauldron for mixing up the chocolate for the chocolate fountain, so all the NSDs will have to be stacked somewhere....Igor, muck out the old piggery, will you, the NSDs can go in there. Shouldn't take you long, there are only a few unwanted wedding presents in there.................Igor?.......... Was it something I said?

    Today has been an nsd.Not been out,as I've felt knackered all today (meant to go swimming,running :mad:).No spends on the internet either.
    On the upside I've finally sorted through and checked through my Office Index of my dvds.
    I've got about 50 to sell or give to a CS.
    That leaves about 995 left,which are in dust free shelves,and in order! :j
    I've also done some dusting elsewhere,and tidied up a bit in the sitting room.
    So,let's see what everyone has been up to today. :)
