  • Good afternoon.....Hope all is well...

    Snap sending thoughts for FourP.....I hope all is well.......:(

    Well.....today is a complete washout..rain, rain and more Bleeping rain......Just as well I had a good day in the garden yesterday although I was wrapped up in coat, hat and gloves....Was looking at some pics from last year and I was in the garden in shorts....:eek:....It has been awful so far this year...Fingers crossed for a good summer....But, just in case I booked a week in Malaga in June...So Absence form submitted for approval please...:D

    On a plus note...I set my spuds yesterday....They had chitted all over the place.....Monte said to put them in....So in they went....Along with a few other bits and pieces........I was also given three sacks of bulbs and plants from a garden that is being dug out.....It was hard to refuse such a gift......I managed to get one bag sorted and planted but there is so much...Going to have to dig some more borders.....:rotfl:...

    Mr. Fothergill is getting a letter....My Broad beans germinated really dire....Packet states if not completely satisfied...They will replace...Fingers crossed they will chuck in a few freebies too...:D

    Have been de-cluttering this morning....The kitchen had it big time....Everything was out....Cleaned and put back...Needless to say the dustbin is fuller than it was....:j:j...Looking gooood..:o

    Enjoy the rest of your days.....:dance::wave:

    OMG, I'm rich! Silver in the hair, Gold in the teeff, Crystals in the Kidney, Sugar in the blood, Lead in the butt, Iron in the arteries and an inexhaustible supply of natural gas! I never thought I would accumulate such wealth!! :rotfl::rotfl:

    I think my freezer has stopped working or it may start later

    I was tidying them up and the big F/F which has been a bit temperamental has given up

    I am going to bite the bullet use what I can, rejig a few bits and let the rest go into the compost bin :eek: Two ordinary freezers should be enough for two people I am always finding "saved" bits of this and that I don't really use So I will need to be a more organised

    I will try with two and can buy another one in a few months if this plan does not work :rotfl

    No snow but very cold

    Well done william:D

    It'll be soup for lunch again:rotfl:

    I made two big vats of soup for the freezer yesterday to use up what veg I already had! Oh well, can't complain when it's free! :j

    Mine also had packs of cabbage, but they were very wet.

    Can make use of the carrots and parsnips though.

    Staff on the till didn't know what to put them through at, one manager said they had been wasted and shouldn't scan; staff giving them out said just put them in your bag now, they are free.

    At mine all of the free veg was in the foyer to help yourself, there was mountains of it :D

    Also in Sains on GJ there's Activia for £1 with 60p back and in Tesc Young's scampi £1.50 with 60p back

    :)

    I got my Activia from Sbobs this morning - I still have a final couple of packs of the Yeo Valley which were free from Mr T last month left to finish first though. Am struggling to remember when there last wasn't yoghurt in my fridge! :rotfl:

    There was a big egg wrapped in green cellophane, reduced £20 :eek:



    :rotfl::rotfl:

    Honestly, even winning the lottery would not tempt me to indulge in such lavish expense!

    I'll have the winnings gladly, but MnS can keep their eggs. :D

    Having heard nothing last night & I couldn't get any answer of the phone in A&E I had no sleep :o
    Got though this morning to a foreign lady who told me he had gone home last night :eek::eek::eek:
    Any way she couldn't understand me & vice versa :o & eventually she located him in AMU ...
    Rang there & was told he was comfortable ...
    Trains running but no buses so Other Sister (who came home late last night after trying to buy cheap Heston Easter Eggs in Ws on way :o) offered to take me for ½ an hour as she had stuff to do :T

    So I got to see him in lots of discomfort & connected to a flashing lights & bells machine .. But being Bank Holiday nothing being done today :(
    Cardiologist has seen him & gave various diagnoses ranging from heart attack to faulty heart valves to blood clot :think:
    So we await tomorrow :)
