Darren, poor old you. Take up knitting, that will keep you occupied
Geoff I had a liberty bodice with rubber buttons too, and giant school knickers. As we walked to school in the snow in '63 the Sedan chair carriers would be trudging past -taking the teachers in, I expect, they've always had a cushy life
Bjay, there's something about snow that makes many dogs go daft, isn't there?
Decided to go to daughters, she's just called and told us it's not snowing where she lives. Checked forecast and we should only have light showers today but we will travel prepared.
Hope you soon recover , Darren.
I remember liberty bodices as well only I had giant navy blue knickers and we had to tuck our school blouse into them when we did P.E.. That big you could also tuck in your gaberdine mac, school pullover and a small school satchel. !
Are you telling me Flo that in my yoof all this fiddling about trying to get the bra fastener undone at the back- I should have been fiddling with rubber buttons at the front-that explains a lot
School satchels are currently in fashion as Hand bagsI see.
Geoff, I have a big suitcase, but it might get cold in the hold!
Darren, poor you, a good hot soak in the bath with some lavender oil is a great help. Comfrey cream is good for bruising, it got rid of my big bruise quickly. Or arnica.

Have just had an enjoyable time watching the A-Z of gardening from this morning. Those clematis..... Did check the seed catalogue & was very pleased to find thay dont do the one she said easy to grow from seed. I would have been fuming if they had.
Right, washing up, then dahlias & then baking later. Did a huge batch of mixed veg soup which we've had with crusty bread & cheese.
Think am going to do the freezer defrost tomorrow. Not as empty as I'd like, but bound to be some rubbish in there that can go. The garage is sooo cold that the cool box/bags will be fine out there whilst I get stuck into the job. J.

Jean, I still wear knickers like that.

Liberty bodices - yes
gabardines - yes
gymslips - yes
navy knickers to tuck things in - yes
Satchels - yes

Fortunately my M used to buy me white socks not those grey woolly things
Still snowing

Bjay. ditto all the way down. Apart from socks. For some reason we had to have beige socks - urgh.
Geoff

Just had a flock of long-tailed tits visiting my feeders and, more unusually for my garden, a flock of house sparrows. Time for a new avatar, I think.
There we are. Not one of mine, though.
Jean, you do make me laugh
Yes me too with all of that list.
