Morning
Lovely day here blue sky and sun. West escaping the rain for now

Congratulations snoozer such good news

NRA not yet its still closed to visitors
Gers good luck with the tooth
TA enjoy the show

Lazy day as usual on a Sunday but somehow ends up with tons on the list.

My lovely cleaner came on Friday so less to do anyway. Highlights she put fresh bedding on and hoovered everywhere where I can't reach. Scared to untidy it now ....that won't last
Also had the plumber round on Friday and it seems I have more issues than I thought. Bit of a scary thought but the stop !!!!!! to turn the water off both inside and outside are corroded and won't turn. If there was a leak I would be in trouble. Something else to get sorted before I can sort the issues with the boiler.

Made a massive pot of Shepards pie filling in the slow cooker yesterday not exactly following any recipe so its more like a chilli but was lovely with a big pile of mash on. Same again tonight then a few for the freezer.

Have a great Sunday all

Morning all. Did nothing yesterday day, played computer games with OH. Then about five ish I started the Christmas cakes. Made two deep six inch ish ones from the recipe, will need to make another couple, but my cousin and my fathers bf are ready bar the brandy soaking. I have a pratice pulled pork to make today, I decided on pulled pork, jalapeno cornbread, bbq beans and rolls for the party so I need to practice it in case it's horrible...Need to practice the beans too. I hate tinned baked beans but I love any other kind...So I still haven't finished the curtains....maybe I'll stir myself to do them after I put the pork in the cooker thing. Other than that, nothing much today...

Izzy, cold enough for the fire here too, I love it, so warm and cosy. And wood is probably chaper than gas and electric right now. Scarlet, I do the same...I waft about the house doing not a lot...But I do keep three or four things going so I can flit between them all...Gers, glad you enjoyed the show finally! NRA, can't beat a seaside fish and chips...Coxy, well done on the medning, hope FC went well for you [ I have entered winter bear fat mode so dieting probably not going to happen with gusto until january...]TA, good job on finding a cheaper one for her ladyship

and snoozer, congratulaions! Happy sated granny lust!

take care all today...
