  • Happy Sunday all,

    Chucking it down here by the bucket load!
    Had a great night last night there were 14 of us in the end, great meal and great band on in the pub/restaurant place.
    Before I forget I found out where my Hotel Chocolat 'prize' came from ... British Gas. Hubby opened a box when I was out last night :mad: and the card that tells u the centres of the chocs said from "British gas to you" - unless its a gift for having my home service contract thing? I'll class it as a win LOL:rotfl:

    Love quiche COnfused any flavour and must have it cold for some reason don't like hot? must admit do buy it but your recipe looks good. Broccoli and stilton a good one too love it.
    Sheils - sorry to hear about your BIL hope all goes well. enjoy your stay away
    Alfie - glad weather great for you to get out and about in the garden
    Hello Dora, lots of great advice and tips on here and from compers alike enjoy comping!
    Enjoy your Sunday

    I was going to make a quiche and cook a roast dinner and so far have done neither! Instead I went out and bought a few new clothes ready for holiday (including a new swimming costume) and then I have just removed everything from my wardrobe and sorted through it all and found a further 5 swimming costumes.. I recon I must buy one each year and forget about it... ironically one I found in my collection was one I saw at Matalan today and dismissed.. oh dear! But at least all my clothes will return to the wardrobe nicely folded and in some sort of order....


    Not sure what we are going to do for diner now though...

    Hi all!

    welcome.gif Dora - welcome to the Inn and the world
    of comping!

    Wishing you lots of fun and good luck - fingers 'n paws
    crossed for you. :D Before I had joined this forum, many
    years ago :p I used to do tiebreaker competitions - loved
    doing them and regularly won some excellent prizes -
    cash, holidays etc etc. :j

    Now I'm just happy enough to go in for the cash comps
    (like zillions of others :D) but you never know .... the
    comping fairy may just come to visit me. Wishful
    thinking on my part! :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Lol fire**fly, icecream and cream sounds doubly
    scrumptious with your apple crumble. :D :T:T

    Lovely to hear that you had a great time yesterday
    evening theluckofthedraw. The restaurant sounds
    brilliant. :D

    Lol at your discovery of where the mystery choc prize
    came from! I have the same home service contract thingy
    too - maybe they're sending out choccies to all their
    customers! :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Just off to cook my dins - have a lovely evening all.

    :hello: Good morning everyone!

    I hope you're all well on this May Day holiday. :)

    Not awfully sure what the weather will be like here
    today .... bit of a mix me thinks! :p

    It's dry at the mo, a tad breezy but apparently we
    are due a splodge of rain later on with beautiful
    sunshine to end the day!

    Like I said .... a bit of a mix! :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Well done yesterday fire**fly jarring up apple
    sauces as well as getting out to your garden and
    popping in and out re mse /comp sites etc! :T

    It was a beautiful day here yesterday too and I
    managed to get a fair bit of gardening done.

    Hi everyone, just a quick pop in while DH is not on his Lappie. Internet is rubbish here, it's like going back to the old dial up LOL.

    Well done on the wins in the Inn.

    ThT apple crumble looked great firefly thanks.

    Weather here has been really bad, about 3" of snow at one point.

    Have been having a lovely time doing loads of craft stuff with DD and GD as they are doing a stall in the Village in June.

    Sorry to hear about your BIL Sheils and hope things go ok with the operation.

    Will try and pop in again when I can.
    BIG THANKS TO ALL WHO POST THE COMPETITIONS
