Hope he is fine Maz and take care of yourself. Stanley I used to enjoy black velvet in my earlier years (Guinness with champagne) poor mans was with cider. Also some used to drink snake bite which was Guinness with bitter. Remember being on a corporate do and having black velvet for breakfast. Today...

Poor you Maz all this stress, hope hubby is well again soon.

After a strenuous day yesterday cleaning the outside of the van thought after I had done the washing we could have a day on the deck but it's a bit bleak at the moment. Eileen

Grey skies again despite a fantastic sunset last night. Eileen

Love it Richard Eileen

Yesterday we had American Poulet ready made sandwich (basically it's chicken breast with salad on a baguette) and for tea I made a beef stew done in the crock pot. Tasted lovely but the weather went hot here again yesterday. Eileen

Closely related to the "Harvest Festivals" but made of slightly sterner stuff. In my opinion only the French know how to make a proper pair of ladies knickers! :wink: Ian, It's a fallacy, I used to love the old French Knickers, in fact still have a couple of pairs but haven't seen any for...

Hilda Baker talking to Cynthia wasn't it Stanley? Eileen

left over shepherds pie with a few chips. Eileen

Today was cloudy, then we managed to eat lunch outside and a stroll round camp. Just got back and we had heavy thunder storms. Dry at the moment but it's bedtime. Eileen

I think the magic knickers are supposed to work like the old fashioned elasticated corsets to hold the lumps and bumps Eileen

Maz I also love mushrooms cooked or raw so glad they are good for you. Eileen

Roast chicken dinner Eileen

Are they not also known as Magic Knickers. Once attended a wedding and the father of the bride kept going on about magic knickers. Eileen

Why are men so grumpy in the morning? Dave says it's because I am to noisy in the mornings but it's another day so shouldn't we be optimistic and enjoy life? Eileen

We had all sorts of brushes and cleaning implements bought at the door from the Betterware salesman, now they just put catalogues through the letter box. Eileen

Whilst out shopping with our Harry when he was a toddler and I was stopping him picking his nose when a lady said I shouldn't stop him as it is a natural thing and monkeys do it all the time and it helps the immune system. No less embarrassing to have a child with you with it's finger stuck up it's ...

Quite warm here and overcast but it's been like this for the past couple of days then the sun comes out and burns us all half to death before we are then frozen at night. Yesterday it would have been really hot but like Sue in the lakes we had high winds. Eileen

Sorry to hear about David hope he's on the mend. I don't know miss two days and everything changes.

Our fiends go home today so they came for drinks and nibbles last night so when I wash up today I will feel like a barmaid. Today will be quiet with some reading I think. Eileen

last night we had sweet and sour chicken with rice. Eileen

Dull today with slight breeze but weather forecast says sunshine this afternoon will keep you posted. Eileen

Friends arriving today for the weekend so will be seeing them. Shop for bread, short walk and think that's all today. Dave might be going fishing. Eileen

My friend had septicemia when she was young caused by chicken pox. Her body was marked because of it. She spent months in the isolation hospital. One of my brothers had both scarlet & rhumatic fever my mam nursed him at home and none of the rest of us got either. He didn't get septicemia but in ...

Went out for lunch I had Melon with parma ham, chicken in mushroom sauce with french fries and ratatouille, and for desert chocolate cup which was chocolate sauce with coconut ice cream and chantilly cream followed by coffee with creme. Didn't need any tea but went to a party at night so there was a...

Not seen one for years but the old ewbank were great for picking up a few crumbs. I want one of these new light weight cleaners without a cord. Eileen

I think they should all be accountable whether they are playing football or social workers. In the case of the social workers it's ok presenting the evidence after the event but why not make nuisances of themselves and make the management take notice. I know if I get a bee in my bonnet and especiall...
