    G'day all

    Fruitfull day at NEC - bought some loo paperimageimage

    Soooo cold bit of a shock standing waiting for bus back to car park

    Just taken ages to catch up

    Congrats to Sue, I became a garndmother in September, I haven't yet a name to go with the position as there is only one granny and that is my M and I don't like Nan or Nanny.

    I use a varity of containers depending on how many plants I want. I have a module tray of 40 marigolds, and a quarter tray of 6 mosdules for augergine and peppers. Trying not to prick out marigolds so when sowed seed half filled modules till germinated and grown to top of tray then topped hem up with compostimage

    Liz that is so great an idea, I often feel for ex-pats who haven't a full understnading of the language. My daughter spent a few months working in Majorca,and we made sure she was insured as she is so accident prone, but when the inevtable happened it was tricky, endless phone calls. Sorry Geoff - it happens

    Did buy a couple of other things as well. a moon chair with a monkey's face and an expensive thing - a new awning which is why we went imageimage

    Going to eat in sons pub tonight as can't be botherred to cookimage

    If any help to indecisive grandmothers, my sister is known as Nana, my friend is Grandy, and my own grandmother was called Nanan - all these had other intentions until the first grandchild started to speak and came up with his/her own pronunciation.

    Hello Derek - happy forking image

    Sheldon Cooper call his grandmother "meemaw"image

  • yes Geoff, but Sheldon Cooper is nuts! My mum is Nanna, and my gran was Granna. My MIL decided she would be Grandma when our kids came along.

    I ventured to the plot at lunchtime but it was extremely cold so I didn't stay long. And I'm not working tomorrow - OH and I are off to London, to some sort of records office he wants to go to, but I can't remember why!

    I'm supposed to be selling some stuff on ebay but I keep buying things instead!

    I've an awning to sell on Ebay now. Never done it before, Any hintsimage Or would it be better to ask daughters partner - he did get me that sofa for 99p

  • sotongeoffsotongeoff Posts: 9,802

    What is your miminum price Bjay?

    You can list for free for 99p-but then it might sell for 99p-or you wait for free listing weekend-quite common -or you can list it now -it is not super expensive

    Then you can give a "buy it now" price as well,good picture nice description offer collection or post -but cover your costs-quite simple reallyimage

  • I have traipsed the boards n my day is done! Feel like a drugs dealer with all laptops n tablets open! Charging of course! image

    Evening all - have only missed 2 days and there are so many pages to read!!!!  I'm in need of a quick summary from some kind person.  Have looked at a few pages and at least 3 people have changed names image.  Hope you're all well and happy anyway.  Had a lovely day out today with son, friend and OH.  Went to a little town called Llandeilo, then drove over the Brecon Beacons and ended up in a lovely old country hotel where we had a cream tea in the lounge.  We sat on sofas right by a roaring log fire and ate our scones, bara brith and welsh cakes.  Bought DVD of Skyfall which we are going to watch tonight.  Am off to make some nibbles & drinks now before we start.
