What about a sort of Calendar Girls and Boys when for one night/day only we post a festive photo of ourselves - disguised of course and try to do it synchronised order
But Jo, if we don't show these young ones what to do how will they ever know for the future, in their own place, what to do.
I am a walking/mobile phone recipe book and garden book for my 2 that are not with us, but I must say not so many calls now they are confident. i have even had a couple of baby ones
The best was some years ago (univesity years) we were in middle of Burgundy and I had a text Can you fry sausages? - reply 'I can, can you?'
Hiya playmates! You're all getting very festive on here today. Sounds a great idea Bjay and very original too . Always fancied being a Calendar Girl
Been busy today - OH had day off so we both went for a check up/clean & polish at dentist and then did some shopping as OH is away for long weekend in North Wales at some residential "jolly" from work. He's fast asleep now .
Hope everyone is OK - especially Figrat at this difficult time.
Ha ha ha! I can see it on the shelves of WHSmiths now! The Gardeners World Fork Handles Calander, 2013 - with all our mushes on each month!! It's a winner!
Mobiles have a lot to answer for. Some yrs back friend & me trolling around Bodnant Garden in NWales when her son, then about 16 I think, phoned- could Mum collect him from college that night as he wanted to go out & the bus would take too long!! He didnt believe her when she refused as not possible!
Me post a photo? no chance....... that's a task for me to learn/sort out over the rotten winter months. J.
When my son was 23 he took my Mam to Dublin for a weekend break (this was pre-smart phone days) and we had a phone call to say they had gone out for a walk and were lost and couldn't find their way back to the hotel. They couldn't remember the name of the hotel either! Luckily he had left their contact details with us so we could look on-line, find a map showing hotel and direct them back to it.

Bjay, that's inspired! I think calendar girls and boys would be very entertaining.

Evening Jo. B'J n Flo!
Large bowl of pasta bake smothered in pulped tomatoes n grated, melted cheese!
Very much enjoyed n needed!
Jo!.....Been around your neck of the woods most of the day today! Would have popped in for, as you dudes say over that side of the hill, "A Brew"
Yo! Caz n Becks!
Do we have to dress in something festive for the disgused photo and is there a prize for the most original (or funniest!)?
Dean already has an advantage with the onesie!
