    My M used witch hazel as well.

    No rain or snow here, misty hills and cold!

    Looks like we'll become CH experts with Jo's boiler and Lotties office image

    For Christmas I was given a jar of Gold Marmite. image Not opened it yet, seems it has flakes of gold leaf in it, also had a marmite t-pot .

    Just watched Lewis. Don't seem to get the streaming on Itv playback that we do om iplayer

  • Bjay, forgot to say earlier, I climbed those hills once, a long time ago, to watch the sun come up.

    Heating engineer needs a part apparently, and will be back tomorrow.

    I wonder how Yvie is too, she never came onto these boards did she?

    I've just won an auction on ebay - a plate to hang on the wall. image

    Am I the only one who doesnt like the new way Lewis is being shown- as a 2 parter? With it being a week apart, hopeless at remembering the plot twists.

    Am watching Bergerac! That really brings it back. Trying to work out who all the young actors are/were. image BTW ended up with coffee & unsalted pistachios instead.

    Goldleaf in Marmite, whatever next! J.

    Very cold and wet walk with dogs, they've been drying off in kitchen for an hour or so while I caught up with Lewis. I think, like you Jo, I prefer it all in one evening though I've always recorded it so I can watch it in the size chunks that suit me. My absolute pet hate with any programme is the spoiler section at the end image a) I don't want it and b) it squashes the cast list when I am trying to find out who that actor was whose name has been escaping me for an hour! 

    Now there are huge dollops of wet snow falling out of the sky but not really settling. I think the audiences for the show (first night tomorrow) will be very poor as no-one will want to come out in this weather image

    We always tape Lewis. Daughter spent 6yrs in Oxford & OH's Aunt lives there, so lots of 'ooh, look, I know here that is/have driven along there/when did we last go to thast pub?' around here. image J.

    The thumping is still going onimage-apparently they have to stop by 6image

    Gave up on Lewis eons ago-aren't these the last ones for a while?-I read that Jones is leaving MM next week-but it doesn't say howimage

    OH has reported sleet but it was snowing in town a mile away

    Hard luck Geoff. They started around here at 8am I think, but cant remember when they finished.

    I noticed that any building work being done in Austria started at 7.30am on the dot! I was usually partway around a lake, pretty cold, hungry & fed up. OH was usuallyu diving into shrubs clutching his new camera asking 'is this where such & such a shot was taken?' How the dickens was I meant to know, or care image, but did point out that small trees get bigger over 8yrs.......... Lots of new seats around, so when we could avoid the flooding, I was often just sat, waiting..... J.

    My eldest son spent 6 years in Oxford as well Jo, we enjoy looking at the sights we know on Lewis. He walked across a set of a Peter Postlethwaite movie once. He said he needed to go thru the door they were filming byimage

    What's MM?

    I spend time trying to remember actor names as well. and much prefer Lewis as a 2 hour prog. Have you seen on another thread that Beeb have already taken off iplayer letter 'B' of the A-Z

    Here you are gold marmite  and the teapot image
