    Good morning all image  I got back from my walk just as the heavens opened so the washing you lot didn't get in yesterday is still out there!!!  I'm off out today but fortunately OH will be at home - perhaps he'll do better than you lot did image

    Biscuits?  Not really a biscuit fan - delicious crisp home made ones are the exceptio, but I don't make them as I'd only eat them.  I'm a big Nigel S fan tho.

    Morning all image

    Quiet weekend for me hibernating indoors, sadly that all has to end now as it's off to work I have to go image Still, if I didn't then I couldn't have my lovely garden image

    It looks like it's grim again today, so hope everyone has a good day. 

    Dove, I hope your washing makes it in ok and doesn't need washing again! I'm with you on the biscuit front, not a big eater of them, although I do make a mean cheesy biscuit image

    Good Morning all. Think I've got sleeping sickness, slept from 10pm until 8.10am.

    Lily hope you didn't sleep on the naughty step, soz I forgot I'd sent you there.

    Fidget hugs.

    I'm not a big biscuits fan, but will scoff if in the mood. Digestives, and will dunk after nibbling edges so they fit in the mug. image

    Chicky I'm with you on leaving some tea in the bottom of the cup, same reason. I once witnessed a work collegue get a teabag in the face, someone had brewed and left the teabag in the mug. image

    Icecream, now that is my thing image but don't keep any at home, buy when needed as it finds it's way into my mouth far too easily.

    Today off to Meadowhall to exchange a top that H bought me, apparantly correct size on the hanger, but two sizes smaller on the garment, he thought it looked small, but bought it anyway image    shush, don't tell him, but I'm pleased, don't really like it. After all these years you'd think he'd notice I'm not a floral, fussy, gal, more rock chick imageimagein my dreams.

    Hope all are okay today. BFN

    Morning all.

    Thank you for the recipe, Stacey, sounds yummy.

    Amazing how often clothes aren't the size they say they are. I have skirts in 12, 14 and 16 which are all the same around the waist. French sizing tends to be smaller than the English. When I was size 10 (years ago!, now 14) I bought a pair of jeans in France marked size 44, which is size 16, that fitted perfectly.

    Supermarket shopping this morning.

    Morning all,  bit late this morning! Overslept! Good job no work today. 

    You forgot me Kef, image But as your a nice person i'll forgive you image Yes OHs amaze you sometimes don't they with what they buy you, but he did well this year and he's only got it wrong a couple of times image

    Fidget hugs x

    Panda, i missed you over the weekend, hope you have a good day.

    Chicky, Kef, I always leave tea at the the bottom of a cup too, I always hated tea leaves in  my mouth as a child yuk!

    OOooh and icecream I could eat and eat icecream, image But then so did my mum.

    Have a good day everybody, must get a wriggle on.

    Hi Lizzie, I know what you mean about sizes. I've got a vast selection of sizes that fit the same.

    The top is a size 10 and a small looking one at that. Just keeping my fingers crossed they don't have the same one in my size, or I will have to use tact & diplomacy to swap for a different one. I had planned to go on my own, but H wants some stuff, so might try and loose him somewhere when I do the exchange.
