    No David. Long story short, I was asked by my best friend to go, as her husbands daughter (Her Step daughter) is a Daddy's girl and a spoilt brat apparently, and is also coming with her 8 year old even more spoilt daughter, so she asked me to go to even the balance. I said yes, but regret it now. Also, jess and my best friends son, who is 7 do nothing but bicker.  image

    We sometimes did both kate. image

    Oh dear, my Caramac memories are going to be shattered aren't they!! image

  • Flo, the novel I was reading the night of that conversation spelled it a taxi-ing!!!

    Morning all, Becks I can't believe you are so close to your holiday and not a little excited yet - bet Jess is.

    David, have a good time in Blackpool - not been there for years and enjoy Scarborough , Glyn.

    I'm off to get some basket plants for the front . Not sure what yet but hoping for inspiration while I'm walking round G.C. Any ideas would be welcome.

    My friend is passing me '' 50 shades of grey '' to read . Oh my Lord - don't know whether or not I want to or not. I've heard stories about that book !

     

  • I have not read the 50 Shades of Grey. Am waiting for someone to review it, to save me the effort.

    There was an article about that book in the local Coventry paper a couple of days ago. A local woman had wanted to start up some kind of club for women based around the idea of 50 Shades of Grey parties. I have no idea what said parties would involve (not having read said book). But the publishers seemed to have beeen threatening some kind of legal action against her over the use their trademark. Caption in the newspaper reads 'Authors lawyers slap ban on city entrepeneurs hopes to cash in on bonkbuster book'.

    At least I've leaned another new word, bonkbuster (though am not quite certain of the meaning).

    It is a lovely day here but I am off to the shops or there will be nothing for dinner. I will look for some Caramac.

    Jean are you looking for winter bedding? 

    I have never been to Blackpool.image

    Good morning all. Jean, yes she is! image

    Glyn, are you going today? Hope you have a lovely time.image

    Gary, My younger sister is an Ann Summers Host, and it seems her latest theme is that pornographic book!! image (Jean, it doesn't surprise me you're reading it!!!! imageimageimage)

    Kate, if you find some, report back with a taste test. image

    Lovely day here as well, Kate . Just looking for something to put in baskets other than winter pansies.

    Gary - I am not sure if I want to read that book now.

    Becks I'm sure you think I go out gardening in kinky boots !  I'm far too old for that sort of thing - honest !!! image Jess will have a great time .

    Bonkbuster !!! Oh my word.

  • Good morning all. I was reading in the paper yesterday that chains and shackles were disappearing from Blackpool Tower Dungeon and they think it's people trying to recreate scenes from 50 Shades of Grey.

    Perhaps David could bring you something back. Jean image

  • Hi everyone.

    I've only been to Blackpool twice, rained and blew both times, it sort of puts you off! good fish and chips though

    My daughter has been reading 50 Shades of Grey while recovering from her foot injury didn't get much response from her when asked what it was like, perhaps not the thing you tell your mother.image

    Had our afternoon tea, very good for the price, nice sandwiches, scone, jam and cream, but not clotted, just whipped, lemon drizzle cake and either tea or coffee, a bargain for £3.50 each. We sat in the courtyard in the sun, very civilised.image

    Looking forward to trying the local fare in Hereford next week, no doubt OH will be sampling the cream teas there.

    Enjoy your day whatever you are doing.
