AJ & tweets - I would dearly love to meet you one day

Likewise Snap, I think we'd get on very well indeed. Seem to have quite a bit in common.

How is Fourp getting on? Xx

Good morning all, another lovely day here at the moment.

Happy St George's Day everyone, happy birthday (and deathday) to William Shakespeare/

Wasn't going to do the washing when I looked at the forecast yesterday, but it has improved so the first load is on rather later than normal, but it will still dry hopefully.

Happy 35th Wedding anniversary to me and OH. How did we manage that :eek::eek::eek::D

Happy Anniversary gocat and Mr gocat. Wow 35 years, very well done. Mine will be 31 years this year, not too shabby for a second time around, even if I say so myself :rotfl:

Happy Anniversary, not sure how you managed that, probably same way as we managed to get to 33 years last year, by just about avoiding killing each other :rotfl::rotfl:

Washing on the line, I've now got to go sort out my knickers. I only take certain ones on holiday and they aren't skimpy :rotfl: :rotfl: might need a larger suitcase actually :eek:

Morning all.

Tweets, I hope your Mum is a bit better today. It sounds as if she is in a nice place.

Those getting the Walkers crisps with the Virgin 25% discount !!!8211; it works with a railcard too, though only on advance tickets and didn't work when I tried Manchester to Bromley South, though it worked for Manchester to Euston. It clearly didn't like the tube trip or considered it more than one journey.

I'll be back, as Arnie says :rotfl: :rotfl:

altojack

I'm back.

Sounds like she is enjoying the social side of the home. Have they told you how long she will stay there for? xx
