  • Thanks Jean and Glyn  for the info.image and Hi to Tinker, sorry I've lost track of all the different names, will have to make a note and stick it on my screenimage

    Molly, our cat isn't micro chipped, she has a collar with all her info. She must be about 17 now, not quite sure of her age as she has been passed around a bit, had several owners, so I think I will go with the magnetic one. I will be out and about tomorrow so I will investigate.

    Norm2. That sounds like a very good idea, enjoy your rest.

    I've quickly nipped back- Great cake tins Geoff!! image I have just refused OH taking some pastry cutters back with him for his mincepies! I need them here!

    Off to start meal now. Had a surprise visit form an old friend this afternoon. OH was at college with him. T'was great to catch up, as we think it's about 10yrs since we all met up.

    Pile of ironing to do later & those 'b' cards!! J.

    I have another few minutes before need to add peas to the casserole in the oven. Keep snacking on OH's frangipani mincepies!! They are nice, but what's wrong with bog standard ones?

    Ok peas in. Another old student days recipe, adapted using vegetarian sausages- not the quorn ones-ugh. I like the quorn mince for shepherds' pie but not the sausages....

    I had been just about to clean our bedroom when friend arrived. Luckily daughter is going out tomorrow before starting nights, so I shall be able to hoover then as rest of week no chance...

    Wandering outside earlier with some washing noticed lots of things now 'gone' over. Oh well any chance this week I'll get out there to finish off cutting back. My borders never look tidy though....... J.

  • Back from Costco, some presents bought, so I'm feeling a bit happier. Managed not to buy a tray of scones, so that's a result.

    Very quiet on here is it the anticipatiion of x-factor?image I've never seen itimage

    Don't know how to do decorations. Using a different room and decorations just don't seem to fit!

    Keep looking in boxes and then stumped. Was going to put a fibre lamp tree on big window in garden room, but it was Mothers and found actually it was broken. Should have known as she broke many things and never threw them away. So what to do????

    Have hall, dining room and to finish big room. AArGHimage

    Hi Dean! and everyone else who's not watching TVimage

    Had a busy day writing Mam's christmas cards (haven't done mine yet!) and putting up our christmas tree.  Time for a rest now and maybe a little liquid refreshment to start the festivitiesimage

  • Yo Caz!

    Remember! It is a school night! image

  • jo4eyesjo4eyes Posts: 2,058

    Hi Dean, another busy day again I see- do you ever stop? Hi Caz.

    Just reminded OH to get our tree down from the loft. Daughter will do for us next w/end whilst me & OH away galavanting! Not quite sure where it'll live for this week. image Cant move in the spare room for boxes from Dad's, the furniture, etc etc. As a 3rd bedroom it'll take a king size bed, (our sofa bed became one) so a good size but a dumping ground for everything on & around the single in there now. Another job for the colder non gardening months.....

    The boiler has just made a new noise !! OH hopes to get chance tomorrow to contact the manufacturer......It's actually not fired up at the mo as temp reached the set level. OH just going to bleed all the radiators again. Am almost wondering if we shouldnt have stuck with the elderly one...... Just think of reduced gas bills Jo & I think we're warmer?

    Right, am signing off early to try & do those 'b' cards!! I hope box is taping that Hidcote prog....Dont watch Xfactor either Bjay, nor decorate the house now daughter all grown up, very boring here.J.

    3 chldren all grown up as well, but would give us hell if they arrive and no decoration - especially daughter. Mind you i don't go over the top (no streamers) and this year we will have balloons as baby likes looking at things,

    As she gets older will probably get sillier againimageimage

    'Mam' that's a word haven't heard in a while.!
