    This is only my second day on this thread and me and Suesy Sue are already planning our double MSE wedding to 2 guys from this thread:rotfl: :rotfl: , friendship soon blossoms so stick with it Mumsyof2 x
    Yes, you shameless newcomers hijacking our thread and stealing what few menfolk we have, you should be jolly well ashamed of yourselves ;):D :rotfl:

    Thanks for not leaving mumzy :j (and well done on not smoking!)

    Edited to say: in response to your question about people meeting up in real life, I've met quite a few oldstylers now :) I used to live v. near Penny-Pincher!! and ivyleaf, so I met up with them locally (though somehow never got round to meeting Churchmouse who was about the same distance from where I used to live as ivyleaf, just in another direction!) Plus I have been to a few organised and not-so-organised meets, and have made some really good friends especially Nelski, JackieO, Shez, SnowyOwl and Ticklemouse (where are Shez, Snowy and Ticklemouse, anyway? I haven't seen them posting here for a while...) Edited again to say... and Lillibet, and... oh heck, I'd better stop there, or people I've met will start getting offended because I haven't mentioned them :o
    :)Operation Get in Shape :)

  • :wave: Good morning .... just ! to everyone.

    Looks like i missed some excitement on here last night... Just my luck i always miss all the fun :( ... Note to self..... post more than once a day ;)

    Not much planned here today.
    I have posted a wanted on freecycle to see if i can get some wool and needles :) I want to join the Wooligans :) I thought that Freecycle would be faster than me trying to get to the shops.. But time will tell.
    BM and WM is busily making life lots easier ;)
    Not sure what we are eating later... I must sort that out. Might actually have another crack at meal planning and see how i go.

    ((Hugs)) to anyone who needs one or just fancies a hug today

  • Morning all. You hussies :rotfl: :rotfl: Poor Benthosboy, he will never be the same again:D

    Mumzyof2, don't take it personally, I rarely have much of interest to say and so I don't often get replies but I keep on wittering on regardless (thick skinned, me). Everyone is welcome here but if the thread stretches to 15 pages :eek: like it did last night, someone's bound to get missed out. I'm sorry you feel neglected though, I will try and remember to give you a :hello: .

    Not much going on here today (told you!!) , I've just slogged round the supermarket and stocked up for the next week. Had a bad day yesterday, heard that my credit card had been cloned so am nobbled now, can't spend any more money until the new card is sent to me:p . Might try paying for stuff in cash anyway, that'll stop me overspending.

    Egg mayo sandwich for lunch and a ham and cheese potato bake for supper, yum. Last night's beef stew went down a treat, was hoping to freeze some leftovers, but there didn't seem to be any:o

    Have a good day everyone! Hugs to Smokey and anyone else feeling bad, hope all those crocked backs soon get better.

    Mrs F xx
