    Thanks dove image,  glad you had a lovely holiday.

    Ohhh, more tea please. I shall have to get up now image. First mug was supplied by Mr Kitty. Had a lovely slow dance with him last night, and he doesn't dance image. The girls took photos as they couldn't believe their eyes.

    I would have been in my bed well before you Kitty. I've never really been able to do late nights. image

    Even when I was a lot younger than 27.....image

    Hope you feel better today Dove. Brekkie sounded good. I haven't had any yet. I've kind of forgotten... image

    image not quite sure of the rules, but don't think I'm "27" yet. 

    How long till I'm eligible? (1971)?

    Dove - good luck with the paracetamol and Locketts.  Been struggling with a very similar cold for nearly a week now and still feeling chesty but all other symptoms gone.

    Raining here so I'm on patchwork homework duty.   If it stops, I shall go and pull up the spent PSB and plant my courgettes out in their place and pull some weeds that have grown 2' in the last 7 to 10 days in a bed that has been cleared - in theory.

    Need to find some inspiration for how to cook a shoulder of lamb for dinner too.

    I've been 27 for ages.......

    Sounds great but I do rosemary and garlic quite often so looking for a change.  Thinking of trying this one - http://www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/slow-roasted-shoulder-lamb  No potatoes of any shape or form so it'll be Yorkshire puds and asparagus and broccoli and baked red onions with thyme.    

    Dishing up at 8pm our time - he's playing golf today and then has to go back for prize giving, even if he wins nowt.    Fathers' day here so I shall make his favourite rhubarb crumble ad maybe some proper custard.  

    Hope your tum is all cleared up now.   We have a large slab under part of our garden - and probably more we don't know about - but it's way too big to shift by hand so we just leave it.
