  • Dont think it was a cartoon i seem to remember real people in it and it was foriegn. I really enjoyed it. A cartoon film i love is Cinderella Penguin, my family thinks im daft and i dont like to dissapoint.

    As for food all things in moderation except chocolate

  • Morning all, car collected for service, OH planning shopping list (Tesco vouchers have arrived), I'm answering emails, mostly from students who couldn't hand in work. Have to go up to the PC and do some proper work shortly.



    Geoff, no, sadly not, we sat too far forward.



    Lottie, hope he's OK now, it must have been a nasty shock.



    I wonder if I could get a personal shopper to do my Christmas shopping? DIL says their Christmas presents improved when I married her dad, he bought things that he liked rather than what they might like!



    Is there anything we can eat that is good for us? Everything in moderation I say (except chocolate obviously!)

    Obviously going to the flicks now is not the experience it used to beimage

    Glyn-what is going on through the square window?

  • Little Ted having a good time!
  • Maud, that sounds horrible. OH didn't get knocked off, he came into a corner too fast and slipped on what he thinks was grease on the road. Three people stopped and asked if he was ok, including a schoolboy who asked him if he wanted him to put the chain back on his bike, and a van driver. He didn't ride in today, I gave him a lift, but he said his knee is still painful.

    I'd agree - all things in moderation.

    Glyn - you married your DIL's dad?  Confusing!

    Dan, good luck with the Movember. I'm already donating for someone else, but will add a bit extra!

    Morning all, finding it hard to get motivated though have made a couple of important phone calls to arrange workmen and massage.

    Lottie, so sorry to hear about OH. I am an occasional and not very confident cyclist - all those tons of metal flying by does not help.

    I like the idea of a personal shopper though, selfishly, would like one to find me lovely clothes that suit me to save me the hassle of hunting.

    Loved the Clangers, so cute and fluffy. Also remember Singing Ringing Tree; there seemed to be quite a few programmes at that time made in European languages. I learnt How to say 'Mirror mirror on the wall, who is the fairest of them all' in German from one of them! Have not found a use for the phrase yet ;- )

    Ouch Lottie. Hope he fully recovers soon. In good company though - Bradley Wiggins.

    OH makes our bread in bread machine fortunately he's given up making his own, means minimum salt and additives. My BP was so high dr said tablets, I said no I'll lose weight. Have lost a lot, still a way to go BUT blood pressure now behaving itself and no drugs.

    Christmas shopping no ttill first week of December, Christmas tree 2nd week, may go up to Cannock Chase for it - Becks.

    What was the singing ringing tree?

    I don't have natural highlights and have been asked what colouing I use and how often do I put it on. I tell my daughter I may have given her short genes but I have also given her hair that doesn't change colour and she'll thank me for it when she is older.

    Talk later have to go and witness part 2 of my mothers teeth!!

    The singing ringing tree-really scary for kids

    Have tried to weed a border accompanied by 6 feathered friends-not easy when they keep scratching just where you have been-also spread some compost-they haven't got to that yet as now busy scratching at the top of the garden

    Workmen do massages now??image

    Lottie- as long as he is not badly hurt -he can play the wounded soldier for a bit-probably quite scary at the time for both of you

    Am going grey and old gracefully-no Grecian2000 for this chapimage

    Lottie. that's dreadful - hope he makes a speedy recovery. Sitting around in hospitals is not much fun but better to safe not sorry.

    Leaving Christmas shopping until first week Dec what with Daughter moving etc. Need to help out with the boys and get her organised. image

    Back to housework image Playing at catch up now - few things didn't get done yesterday and then back to daughters.

    Hope viewing goes well , Geoff image 

    Good luck to all Chrimblemuss shopping image

    Afternoon everyone, time for a sit down and, dare I say it, some Fruit & Nut chocolateimage. My excuse is I've done quite a bit of work in the garden this morning - dividing some very big clumps of primula and replanting and having a good tidy up outside potting shed which is a general dumping ground where we put things "for the time being".

    Hope Mr Lottie will feel better soon - the shock is as bad as the pain sometimes.

    Can't think about Christmas shopping yet - I'm a bit of a last minute shopper and usually get some great bargains when things start being reduced.

    I used to love Tales of the Riverbank and I think it was called Zoo Time when Jonny Morris used to do all the animal voices.

    Glad your over yesterday's ordeal Jean - you're due a quiet few days nowimage
