    Brilliant Henrik....I was just coming on to ask if anyone had any good spirit comparisons....I need a few bottles......I so want to try the JD that dippy posted but it's such a big outlay and a big APG.......well it would be for me:rotfl:

    THe JD is fine if you want it now but it's often enough £15 for a bottle (rather than £23 a litre).

    Green Mark is the worst vodka to buy as it's £9.50 APG on it's own. If it's all that's on offer though .....

    Not bad for 5p cash :D

    Absolutely gorgeous day up here today :cool: Spent most of the afternoon on Nairn beach, DD paddling in the sea and me lying on the sand attempting to get some colour about my pale Scottish complexion :p :rotfl:

    Is yours to decide, this is your life.

    I'm tempted to get a couple of bottles on a CC....JD that is....but knowing my luck, my account will be suspended for a completely legitimate purchase and I'll lose the blooming lot:rotfl::o

    A beautiful post wacky:A

    When I heard the news yesterday I wanted to hug DD and DS. I knew they were nowhere near the accident but they weren't with me.:o I couldn't get my head around the absolute and sudden randomness of the accident....one minute it's a normal day, the sun is shining and you have plans, things to do......and within a split second life looks different for hundreds of people....family and friends, those coping with terrible injuries.....heartbreaking:o


    So very very sad when I saw the video it just was so shocking


    Its a good job none of us knows what's round the corner Heart


    felt sympathy for those people and their families

    Bit of both if I can get my hands on some oak it gives off an intense heat but I find when you use a soft wood you spend most of the night loading the fire as it burns so quick

    With the charcoal I can pour it down the stack until the round fire section is full but not blocking the flue and put some BBQ lighter fluid at the bottom on the front through the mesh light it and that's it. The heat is very intense the cast iron glows read

    also you get a lot of hot embers going air born with wood I’ve seen clothing ruined with a burn holes also they land on the conservatory roof and the garden furniture :eek:
    I might give it a try then, anything that gives more heat is good with me. I was going to buy a bag of coal and give that a go.

    Part of the Furniture Combo Breaker I've been Money Tipped!
    I'm out. Was in and out in 2 hours. Can't fault the service, and the staff. Dr I saw was fantastic. Never heard of my procedure, but listened to my explanation then just got on with it. Tube is properly in, realised yesterday it didn't go in all the way, this time I felt the pop as it entered the new bladder! Goodness know be how long it's been out, but glad the channel hadn't closed.

    She did 4 stitches, would have done more if I wamted s she likes stitches, but think 4 was enough! :eek:

    I wouldn't have picked A&E as my first trip out since coming home, but luckily it was ok! Exhausted though, this leaving the house business is hard work! :rotfl:

    Great news LS, may you enjoy a good nights sleep tonight, no worrying about possible leakage in the night x
    There's no place like home :)

    Feeling down? Weak in body? Makes no difference to me, I think of you all when I'm sitting quietly.

    Hugs and healing thoughts are always going your way.
