    Why are these ruddy pidgeons coming to my garden again this year :eek: Last year I was in and out chucking spuds into a tree to chase them away. I don't want their poo on my old stone bench in my shady nook :mad:
    Perhaps they like potato? :D
    Great....but how about a petrol one with push button start :cool:

    I'm fed up of doing battle with the extension cable.
    Never seen a button start on one. I swapped engines over on mine last weekend, just need a dry evening to try it now. Had to do a few bodges to get it all set up.

    When my son wanted film themed fancy dress, I suggested Men in Black and Blues brothers. Nice and easy :D
    Im sure women could go as the same. Equality and all that

    tweets, (hugs). Just catching up. Has your Mum had her hip replaced?
    Sounds like she is enjoying the social side of the home. Have they told you how long she will stay there for? xx

    Thank you :)

    No not replaced just screws and plates

    Lots of washing on the line/twirly thing today with my rather large granny knickers strategically placed out of sight!!:rotfl::rotfl:

    I'm doing a holiday sort out too, 3 weeks yesterday, not that i'm counting!!

    Decided that I do need new knickers for hols, but a couple of years ago did that, bought my usual size from Sainsbobs and just put them in the case, well, despite my very ample rump these pants just kept falling down:o I was walking up the street pulling them up all the time. Thankfully wearing a maxi dress so in the end I took the b@ggers off!
    Mind you we of more ample proportions should have an additional luggage allowance, all of our clothes, including knickers weigh more and we need more suncream!

    Pippo, going alfresco....whilst on holiday - very brave! I avoid g-strings on holiday..... just in case!

    Is there a theme?

    I found the 1920's theme really easy to do and really fun!!!

    Cheap flappers dress, feather in the hair, bag, pearls, fur thing around the neck... job done x
