    Hello HHog image

    Just been to the hairdressers.I know we're supposed to enjoy that sort of thing but I find it very traumatic image. Going to have a cup of tea now to recover. Anyone got any biscuits? OH has been at the biscuit tin again .....

  • Thank you one and all.

    Obelixx yes there will be veg cant beat home grown, I have requested a full allotment if possible rather than a half that seems to be the norm nowadays but anything will be better than nothing.

    Welcome Hampshire Hog . I used to live in Hants for 28 years, but now in Devon.

    Heating oil has now been topped up, but now I can't get the stupid boiler to fire up. grrrrr. 

    I've left a message for the plumber to see if he might talk me through it over the phone. Hey ho.

    Devon.
  • HHog ... First come, first served image  ............. I shall have to make another one very soon

    It's probably the easiest cake recipe I know.

  • HHog....looks like rasin has given you a new handle .....welcome ....I'm also a neophyte .....if Dove offers you a piece of Clementine Almond cake.......bite her hand off image

  • Hello, Hampshire Hog!  Nice to welcome new friends on this thread.  image  Hope you get your allotment soon, before gardening withdrawal symptoms set in!

    There's an annoying amount of snow coming down... OH has to drive to Liverpool for one of his rehearsals, and has one eye on the radar picture which suggests the snow is going further east.  Hope it does so soon...

    I'd be bidding for the clementine cake, Dove, but I'm just about to make some date and apple flapjack, so probably your OH's need is greater than mine on this occasion.  image

    Since 2019 I've lived in east Clare, in the west of Ireland.
  • Liri ... son down in Suffolk says it's snowing heavily ... friend up on the Norfolk coast says the same .... here in mid Norfolk the sun is shining on the righteous image

    I expect we'll pay for it later ...........
