    Elite need treats, expecting

    ROUND

    Hmmm. So let's try this:

    HAIRY

    Harvestinging apricots is really yummy

    or am I not supposed to include YUMMY in my sentence? I am not really very creative and this has taken me ages to create so I think I am going to withdraw from this game -- bear of very little brain here!

    I'm just waiting for my yoghurt to finish and then I am going to crash into bed. Very tired... But I think it is working using the whoopsied fortified milk, so that is good. I also wasted a lot of time trying to decide whether or not to buy a glass lid for my instant pot and then spotted that one I already have is a pefect size. So I'm very pleased! (Do other people keep saucepan lids in case they fit things like frying pans etc? I have to confess that I do...)

    Thanks aau. I should have worked that out for myself but am very tired now.

    Bubbs, thank you. I've looked at the page and discovered I've no insertion fees on up to 100 listings per day and also 20 free listings and also 20 free scheduled listings. If that doesn't get me going again, nothing will! I've not got the £5 thing but I don't think I've anything of high value to sell anyway.

    Night everyone. 15 mins to go for yoghurt so I'm going to get ready for bed and then go downstairs to sort it.

    That's perfect - then YUMMY becomes the word for the next player to derive his/her words from.

    Thank you for all your kind thoughts for Mr TM. You are really a lovely lot:smileyhea:smileyhea:smileyhea

    He has added to the woes of the NHS today:o I won't tell you what happened exactly as even writing it makes me queasy:o
    He has broken several bones in his hand and has an appointment first thing tomorrow to see if it will have to be pinned.

    Fortunately there was a doctor on the team ride and she had him bandaged up pretty well. A team mate took him to hospital and DD and I went and collected the car.

    He's now dosed up on painkillers. I don't think either of us will get any sleep tonight.
    So pleased that he received prompt attention and that you are all home safe and reasonably sound.
