Morning Pat and Allan. <3 :-D

Spring has sprung.

We had a lovely bluebell wood not far from where I went to school. We walked to it on an occasional biology lesson. Better than being in school! :-D

You do realise you'll have to go shopping again for OH's wedding outfit Alan. I wonder if today's exercise may have been accomplished ;-)

If we'd strolled a few minutes from school we could have had a lesson on foundries :-D :-D

Allan, you are the lucky one - not. :-D

I'd never take my OH clothes shopping, not in a million years. :-0

Allan

Allan Report 13 Apr 2019 11:40

I do, Pat, I do :-(

I have suggested that a new outfit of black plastic refuse bags would be a talking point, but not for me until the swelling in my mouth goes down :-0 :-( :-(

I ought to say - never clothes shopping for me.

I go with him to choose suits, though, as I've let him loose in the past for more formal wear and he's arrived back with yet another pair of walking boots and warm coats. :-0

I have to go with OH - his version of what compliments each other takes some understanding :-S I'm still working on it ;-)

JoyLouise, Pot Shrigley in Cheshire was a fantastic place for bluebells when I used to live near there many years ago

I get my own clothes, he'd be bored and all over the place. Get him in an electronics shop and he's in heaven.

Last time we decided to get a new TV he went through the shop checking everything he saw and I stood and watched the whole of the film Madagascar while he did so :-D :-D :-D

So, Allan, the consensus seems to be give your OH your wallet and let her loose. :-D

PatinCyprus

PatinCyprus Report 13 Apr 2019 11:53

Thought she already did that Joy :-D :-D :-D :-D

JoyLouise Report 13 Apr 2019 11:56

Not if Allan's with her, Pat. She'd probably have to empty her own purse first.

Allan, remember, your OH will need a decent lunch and a couple of stops for coffee as shopping's really, really, tiring when you have no OH to carry your bags and boxes. :-D

Or is that why she takes you? ;-)

Allan

Allan Report 13 Apr 2019 11:58

OH can take a packed lunch and a flask of coffee when she goes shopping :-| :-P

PatinCyprus

PatinCyprus Report 13 Apr 2019 11:58

Coffee and cake to get over the expense of it all. :-0

PatinCyprus

PatinCyprus Report 13 Apr 2019 11:59

That's for the Bluebell Wood not shopping Allan :-0 men no nothing :-\

Allan

Allan Report 13 Apr 2019 12:00

Cake, CAKE?

Some soap would be OK :-| :-D :-D

You need sugar for shock Alan - have you seen some of the prices :-0 :-0 :-0 :-0

Well, I'm off to get my jammies off and my glad rags on. We are out to a diamond wedding shindig this arvo. Drinking, dining, dancing ... with everyone's creaky joints in motion. :-D

Have a good one Joy :-D :-D <3 <3

Allan

Allan Report 13 Apr 2019 12:05

Yep!

That's why I only take OH clothes shopping at midnight when the various clothes shops are still light up, but closed :-D
