    Wow Granma what big teeth you have to wake us all up withimage

    Good morning everyone here already or yet to come on-line.

    I do hope Verdun was okay yesterday. I tend not to comment on sensitive subjects because well...to be honest, I always feel as though I am pushing my nose in where its not wanted. I know most people would say nonsense, but its always been how I feel about it. I am extremely over the top private about personal stuff so, I guess I just assume others are as well. But the show of support on this forum is lovely, long may it continueimage

    So, I have been keeping up reading all your chit chat but Im afraid I was just too darn tired to reply after my covering shifts. Two days off now before I go back to my usual rota on Sundayimage

    I brought home custard donuts for my men, sometimes its white chocolate cookies and whilst I cant indulge in those, I can't stop eating chocolate at the momentimage so every day I am beginning a new diet which then fails by supper time. Oh dear, what you gonna do with me?

    White chocolate cookies .....yumimage.  Not often i think of cookies before 7am, so thank you for that treat Wintersongimage

    Ingredients bought for Chocolate cake Nigella style - thankyou Dove and Lilyimage.  Baking session tonight after work, ready for the big day tomorrow, when my baby turns 16 .....how did that happenimage.  Made myself smile as I was running round the SM yesterday with a screen shot of the recipe on my phone.  Not long ago I would have got pen and paper out and made a list ....times change without you realising don't they.  It was on the radio the other day that Churchill, in his youth, participated in one of the last horseback cavalry charges, and yet by the end of his life we had put a man on the moon ...... I find that quite amazingimage.

    Enough, enough .....gotta go to work ....wish I had a tardisimage

    Wow Chicky, it is indeed!

     And happy B Day cake baking later. Can I clean out the bowl like we used to as kids before raw egg scaresimage

  • Good morning folks image

    Brilliant show last night - absolutely brilliant!!!  Haven't laughed so much in years!  Count Arthur Strong 'Somebody Up There Licks Me' -  Last night was the first night of a UK tour so you all have a chance to go http://www.countarthurstrong.com/2015-live-shows-announced/  Brilliant!!!

    Good to see that most of you have been behaving yourself - glad that you're being careful Granma image

    Good morningimage. Sounds as though you had a great evening Doveimage.

    Chicky I'm afraid I still rely on written shopping lists which are often left at homeimage.  Wintersong you are not the only one starting a new diet every day.  Mine at the moment is three fairly good days versus four appallingly greedy ones.  There are still chocolates in the house.

    DD what a lovely pic.  You will always have to walk that way now as the pony will be looking forward to your visits.

    Have a good day everyone.

  • I think Count Arthur Strong's use of language has infected me - I have accidentally just invented a new word - chaord - OH understood what I meant - organised chaos - that describes this house at the moment!

    This post is taking ages, George keeeps nudging me for fusses image



    Cake sounds good Chicky, hope Chicklet has a good birthday image, you are right about how things have changed, its amazing how much harder our grans and mothers lives were, we are very fortunate to have all the gadgets and labour saving thingys...that gives us more time to garden! imageimageimage



    Good to hear you had a good time Dove, nowt like a good laugh image



    Got a builder coming to re-arrange our bathroom and fit a bath next week...eeek! My lovely mommy said she will pay for it imageimageimage
