    Tattycath - Are you cooking for two tomorrow??

    GB - Don't worry we re-arrange some cupboards too, and are still going to the old ones at times. I think a Kitchen is one of the most stressful rooms to do.

    No we are not as far down as that we are just south of Alicante, so I do not know the area, but the weather is very similar and I am sure you will enjoy it. I spoke to a friend out there today on Messenger and she was going to sit in the sun for an hour, she said it was warm and sunny, but rather windy.

    When we are in Spain we spend most of the day outside, here there are days I do not go out, so we are OK with the CH on. As for the health care, it is untrue, DH never wanted to consider being out there for more than extended holidays, now his mind is changing, with that the tax, the petrol, etc., etc., and the freshness and favour of the food out there.

    With that menu Granny I would drive up to Haribo's and get her new carbon monoxide detector :D to use.
    Don't worry about the world coming to an end today. It's already tomorrow in Australia. ;)

    HI DG

    I am going to Port Salou with DD, DSIL and DGSs early May. DSIL's parents there for first week too! 6 adults and 3 children should be OK first week. SIL has a hang up as DGS2 blond and he is so worried he is abducted. Rest assured my grandchildren will never be out of an adult's sight!

    Love

    Well, a rather tired Hussie going to bed. Glad after a two week absence I can now catch up with you. However, with workmen in next week it could be dodgie.

    Take care you all.

    I'm afraid I can't lend out the gas detector as this afternoon I inserted it into a part of my MIL's anatomy. :cool:

    Having geared the menu towards things she likes instead of our usual roast,(she is an obsessive non meat eater) she announced as I was serving the smoked salmon on HM oven baked wholemeal bread starter that she wouldn't have much as she was hungry on the way over and nipped into Tesco for an egg sandwich. :eek: :rolleyes: :mad: !!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!! ***** !!!!!!!!. :o
