Just a quickie as I'm up to my eyes.

Happy Birthday Tru :beer:

Where are Taplady and Tattycath?

Benthosboy. I drive past that spot in the picture of your van every day. That's probably put you right off moving back.

Been up and out at the school fair. Home with more carp than we donated. :rolleyes: Need to tidy up the kitchen then down the town to the butcher and home to tidy up the windowboxes.
Asparagus soup and crusty bread for tea.

Bye for now.

Back from the lottie, everything aches, head, neck shoulders arms, back legs feet................I have just taken some paracetamol and had leek and spud soup, cheese and biscuits and an apple for my lunch. Going to sort out the washing cannot get anything else in the basket its so full...will take a laod down and see if there is a free washer, thing I might need the biggie.

Its dull here but not too cold..........even so I was glad to get back inside...

OH watching Scotland v Italy on TV, I have just told him if he is going to continue to shout at the telly, I am going out!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It drives me nuts when he sits moaning at the TV. I know he played Rugby but that was 60 years ago!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I as hoping to do some more at my canvas bag, but my hands are so bad, its going to have to wait..........last time I go and do cleaning for someone else.

Corned beef stovies for supper, beeg and bean casserole tomorrow........need to get the beef out of the freezer, also put a loaf on for tomorrow.................

Morning all, whoops afternoon I mean, only got up at 11.30 am as I only got in after 2am and couldn't sleep.Had a great night at Dad's presentation, and ended up in tears, as he got a lifetime achievement award and a standing ovation, made all the more poignant due to his illness:o
I am doing sweet FA today apart from feeding the hounds, washing up and defrosting a lasagne for tea
Going to a race night tonight, with pie and peas so should be a good laugh all round.:D
(((hugs))) all round for all who need them, and Happy Birthday Tru:T :T

Right - here is a very daft-feeling Mioliere! I've been telling knitters and crocheters to do the squares for our blanket at 8 x 8 INCHES! However, STRESSEDOUT has asked if they should be 8 x 8 CMS! And I'm afraid I don't actually know! I think it may have been DONNY-GAL who said she had seen one done for WaterAid in 8 x 8 inch squares but, knowing me, I may have read it too quickly and just assumed, me being a non-metric girly, that it was inches not cms. I would be very very grateful if whoever it was would let me know and, meanwhile, please hold your needles and hooks at the ready - I'll let you know asap! Meanwhile, thanks so much for a fantastic response.

Hi Kathy! It was little ol me! Wateraid requested 8" x 8" squares so answer is inches. I have red wool at the ready just need the needles as they are being used for another project at the moment.

Happy Birthday Tru! :bdaycake:

smokey - (((hugs)))

(((hugs))) to Hilstep, Quackers and dd, Catowen and dd, PP, benthosboy and anyone else who could use one.

Just resting up as we took pup for her walk and did a little bit of shopping (I wanted to get some of the bargain wool at aldi) and have now both overdone it, OH is getting worse and now can't talk very well so getting frustrated, he is also weak from the virus so I am making him rest when I can. His eyesight is shot as well so he cannot even pick up a book to read and eating is very difficult as is drinking a cuppa (thank goodness for straws) Just hoping this will peak soon so we will know the extent of the damage and start on the recovery. Just to add to his problems he has exam work to finish within the week!

On the plus side only another week at school and then we break up for the Easter hols I love my little job but need the rest now!:o

Have a lovely Saturday!

Hello..I am a bit of a newbie too here but wanted to say hello as you all seem such a lovely bunch!!:j
I am having a rubbish day to be honest and this site chears me up. Kids all got up early and woke me up fighting so not a good start. Its dull and raining so I have washing all over the rads to dry ..done 2 loads this am. I have cooked my chick peas for tea tonight so I can consentrate on making naan breads for first time eeek!! dh isnt talking to me because I didnt want him to buy a newspaper out of food budget money grrrrrr:mad: . This is £29 for a shop on wednesday for a family of five so I dont think I was being unreasonable.He can read the news paper on line for free.......! and its his fault we are so skint this month as he has spent all the spare cash:eek: !!

Lets hope the chick pea curry is ok and they dont all turn their noses up....there is just no pleasing some people . Anyway enough of me moaning on!


My kids love watching dvds in odd languages..hagrid in harry potter sounds hilarious in russian (:o ok so I watch with them!:o ):rotfl:

mioliere

BERTIEBOTS - you stick to your guns, especially if he is the one who spent all the spare cash. I love to get the newspaper and used to buy one every day and half the time it wouldn't get read. Most days, apart from the weekends, I read them online - it's a lot cheaper that way! If I don't have time to read them, I don't have to feel guilty about wasting money. Hope your day gets better.

Hi everyone. Hugs to those who need them, and happy birthday Tru. I am sitting here watching bf knocking off all the plaster on the living room wall :eek: to prepare for our woodburning stove that we are getting next weekend. Woo Hoo!! Aparently there is a hole bigenough to put a range cooker in it!!! Hope it looks pretty when its finished. So not much to do just now but kater I will need to sweep all the floor and hoover to tidy up all the mess. Apart from thatt house is quite presentable thanks to flylady so having a lazy sat and watching dvds later on after I have made dinner. Hope everyone has a good day, x

Afternoon Everyone

Happy Birthday Tru.

Still full of cold so dh let me sleep in this morning. I woke up at 11.45 whoops. Since then been to Aldi and started the great kitchen clear out. So far I've done the window sill, under the sink, on top of the crockery cupboard and on top of the larder cupboard. Can't believe the amount of rubbish I've found. I'm about to go and tackle the corner under the boiler which is going to be horrible.

Tea will be easy chicken and bacon baguettes. I'll be proberbly carrying on clearing the kitchen this evening as I think dh is hoping to knock most of it out tomorrow although I'm hoping he'll leave my sink in for now.

Have a good evening everyone
