Afternoon all,
Hope alls well in OS land.
Well done on all people who have lost weight~ keep up the good work!
HARIBO~ love the way you describe stuff,toothless hag~priceless!
CSARINA~ glad you got the back pay (must be a relief)
DLB~ if i was you i would nip and see your Dad on his birthday.(i bet it would mean a lot to him), even if its only for a few minutes. Poor you ,you sound like you are between a rock and a hard place at them mo.no wonder you feel poorly.
Hugs if i haven’t mentioned you (im not ignoring you deliberately~honest!:o )
Well its chucking it down here and really dark. OH hasn’t had any work this week, thanks to the pr*t he works for not giving him any. Plus he owes OH £40,hasn’t got it for him,but can afford to buy a new landrover.:mad:
So now im panicking about money. Plus the aforementioned pr*t had said he would pick up a second hand sofa i won on ebay. But now keeps making excuses,so im gonna have to look in the paper for man with van.(more cost.) if it not one thing it my MOTHER! :rolleyes:
I made a banana bread the other day. Oh my word i have NEVER tasted anything so vile in all my life._pale_
God it was horrid. OH liked it so it must just be me! Twinks hobnobs went down a treat when OH’S best friend and girlfriend came round yesterday. She was moaning she was hungry,soon shut up when she had ate 6 (yes 6) hobnobs.:rotfl:
Need to go and drop nephews 1st birthday presnt off. Got him the most, annoying musical nursery rhyme toy. (i do my bit to please the parents :rotfl: )

Have a good day all, will pop back after.
TTFN

Afternoon all,

Nearly made it 'morning'...OH's fault he brought me a delicious sandwich made with some of the bread we bought yesterday...like bread used to be so I had to eat it.

Anyway nothing but drizzle here, warmer than the last few days anyway but won't be working outside...going to declutter the desk in LR as I can't find my spare keys and want to give them to my SIL before Sunday. Have two Weetabix cakes in oven and two chickens...one for to-day and tomorrow and one for freezer. Going to stew some apples for freezer as well, and cook a couple k of mince to divide and put in there for future reference.

Tired Mum...hope that you get to see your doctor and that you get something to relieve...had what I gather was something similar once and it was most unpleasant. (Aussie....really you colonials!)

DLB...take it easy...painkillers not best with tummy upset...flat lemonade or similar or something with ginger in it is good for settling.

Still shocked at my overspend yesterday...made me realise that I used to do that everyweek before MSE...no wonder I never had any money...my income is now one-fifth of what it was before retirement and I'm saving money...should have been a millionaire long ago!

Nothing much happening here apart from the cooking, will make a couple of apple tarts as well and maybe a victoria sponge and chocolate...most is going in freezer if I get there, as there is no huge demand for sweet stuff here anymore so just need to have something for when people drop in...remember when family were all young used to spend Friday baking and have little left by Sunday if I didnt freeze it immediately.

Haribo...last time I heard of anyone being so superstitious was my mother saying 54 years ago that she had to buy some lace from someone at the door as she was afraid that she would put the 'evil eye' on her ....she was expecting my brother at the time, which is why I can remember how long ago it was....I'm surprised at you!

Hester...your lodger seems to be getting the message somewhat that you are not her slave, make sure she continues to remember that.

Hugs to all in need...JackieO, are you ok??

I'll be back

Hello again.

Thankyou for all the nice hellos yesterday.

It's a right laugh on here isn't it??
You'll have to bear with me while I try and remember everyone's names....

So far today I have hung out some washing, made a beef stew for tea, been to post office and done a bit of shopping.

Shez my daughters are 4 and five so I'm past the terrible 3s but they still have their moments.

I'm going to have a nosy around old style for a bit then off to do more housework (yawn)

princesstippytoes

Oh and thanks for the message frogga... I only have a few pounds to lose from eating too much on holiday so won't be joining but thanks for the offer to join you and good luck with your diet.

Edited to say... seems I joined frogga's challenge anyway. Oh no, now I've quit.

Shez well done on weight loss and Taplady fingers croosed for your DS as well
DLB hugs to you poor you what a time you have had.
all up to date at home house is gleaming for a change and washing all up to date it is definately this site I think if everyone else does it all I better try as well still havent mastered much baking yet but give me time
Got to take DD14 shopping after school now the weather has changed she has decided she doesnt want to wear skirts and tights to school she wants trouseurs now! got a 20% off Dorothy Perkins voucher so hoping we find a pair in there
Going to France tomorrow with DD23 and her BF to look at wines and sparkling wines for her wedding next year even paying £4 a bottle corkage it will still be cheaper to buy our own wines then pay the venue prices hope it is not choppy on the sea

hugs to everyonexx

Afternoon all. Yet another day on my bottom. Mum is doing my ironing and I feel terrible about it. Going to knit some more patches for the baby blanket in a bit to keep me occupied.

Want OH to make up some cheesy potato pie tonight, but I'm not sure how much cheese is left now.

Hi everyone!
Hugs to all those who need them today!
Can I have a proud Mummy/Old Style moment pleeease....I made the small person a Dennis the Menace door sign for his birthday...we sent a photo of him off holding a Beano with the sign in the background and he's in this week's Beano:j He's won a prize awell.
Anyway I hope you don't mind me having a little boast..it's just OS has given me the confidence to have a go at making some pressies and I'm chuffed today!
On the OS front I've sorted out a dark wash to go on when I get back, beds stripped, linen changed and bin emptied. Trip to Mr T tonight.
Hope you all have a fab OS weekend.
