    Can you clear some of your inbox.

    Done. I rarely receive any, so it's not something I check

    How mysterious ;):rotfl:

    I'm probably being blamed for something :)
    I usually am.
    I'm the sort that "always gets the blame" :)

    It'll be some telling off; it always is :)

    I won't join the breakfast pizza club (yuk), but any openings in the grumpy old git one? Was at the Royal Festival Hall recently and the number of people standing up and brandishing their phones to take pics and recordings with flash was unbelievable. Plus someone sitting near me was checking his phone throughout the concert. Absolutely no consideration for anyone else.

    Can I join you as a grumpy git (sorry middle age not old) :D I also don't do pizza for breakfast _pale_ . I once sat behind someone who Facebooked a running commentary of what was on the stage :mad: My grumble today 4x4 drivers driving at speed through puddles :mad:

    I walked into town today with my sister for [STRIKE]the dreaded[/STRIKE] Christmas shopping I'm sure the gin will kill the pain :rotfl: sorry i'm a little blah humbug today :o. My sister can be a little indecisive, my nephews still have a stocking Christmas Day even through they're in their early twenties the reason 'so they can stock up on socks and pants' :cool: we spent 15 minutes choosing socks :eek: :wall: thank goodness we didn't have time to choose underpants, my sister says it's a Christmas tradition :rotfl:

    Had lunch in town nothing fancy, I had a s*d it moment and had a toasted sandwich, I got an eye roll from my sister and a warning not to complain about the bread later :cool:

    Dinner was a lamb rump steak, jacket potato and veg. Whilst digging in the freezer I found a lot of mince :cool: including one pack of pork I hadn't divided, so tomorrow I'll make meatballs with half of it and then Nasi Goreng on Monday, unfortunately it doesn't seem to have left much of a gap in the freezer so I may be eating it for a while.

    Caronc enjoy time with your son, hopefully it won't be too wet tomorrow and you can get him to do any outdoor chores :D

    Good morning everyone,

    :wave:MrAJPI you're not intuding at all , nice to see you:)
    Hope the gin eased the shopping grumps Brambling;):)

    There's worse things than having too much curry Novice :rotfl:nope best not to refreeze if it's already been cooked.
    My son & I had a fish & chips takeaway last night, it was lovely:).
    It's still raining so it will be waterproofs on to get the log stored but thankfully not too cold.
    I've a chook in the fridge and as there's not just me I'll cook it whole. Roast chicken dinner tonight, always a favourite:D

    I didn't have pub grub yesterday as it turned out there was a little bit of food buffet style laid on, so a few nibbles of that sufficed. I never wanted a full meal/pub meal in the first instance as I feared it was "too much/too soon" having eaten a whole meal the night before... so I was relieved to not have to plough my way through an inevitable something and chips and peas meal :)

    Had 6 chocs last night - that's all the chocs gone. Also a packet of crisps.

    Breakfast this morning was hash browns, scrambled eggs and beans .... because it's super quick/easy and filling :)
