Good morning Sylvia!

What a lovely lot of lunch to look forward to today <3

I will start with an Ulster Fry-up please and come back for the rest later :-D

Thank you,

Dea x

Morning everyone. Not a very good one here - it's very damp and grey outside. Mind you, it isn't cold so that's something.



Thank you for breakfast and brunch Sylvs.......I'll start with porridge and see how things go :-D


Laines - I know just what you mean with your filing etc. It is SO easy to get side-tracked with photos and letters and........etc., etc., ;-)






I'll send a pm to Valerie to try and help her out.


Back later ~~~~~

Mornin~~~~~~


Another late night :-0

If you find Valeries thread, c/p on here for me please


:-D

Valerie can't have a thread Ginns as she has only 2 posts under her name and both of them are on here :-S

Perhaps she is waiting for you to say it's O.K. to do it ?

Anyway, I am sure Cynthia's pm will get her sorted.

It is SO confusing when you are new to these boards.

Dea Xxx

Dea

Valerie says she posted about Irish ancestors. Im thinking she deleted it by mistake

Valerie.......post it again so that we can help you


:-D

I've sent Valerie a pm - don't know if she's opened it yet cos I haven't looked.

I reckon she's deleted and is in a quandry as to what to do next.


I doubt she will return to this thread to be honest.


I agree Dea, these boards CAN be confusing at first.



A busy morning but , hopefully, a quiet afternoon and evening.... :-D :-D

Cynthia - you would LOVE it here !!

I have 'old people's bungalows' behind me and from time to time they are inhabited by 'deaf' people !! :-)

The weather is quite warm so I have all my windows open and so do they !!

Someone over there seems to have 'Songs of Praise' going at ful blast ! - 'All creatures here on earth do dwell "

Good job I like a nice hymn !! (and I remember most of the words from school !)

I DID have a problem once when son was about 12 and the 'old VERY deaf person at the back, behind his bedroom also suffered fron insomnia !!

He/she had their TV on ALL night at full blast with the windows wide open - that was a nightmare !!

Fortunately, or unfortunately for him/her, they didn't live there for very long !!

Dea Xxx :-)

Not holding my breath Cyns ;-)


Had a lovely evening yesterday......food went went went

Cooking pasta now, have one or two over to trough it!

OOOOerr - I have got the 'hiccs' without the 'upps' - due to my medications !!

However, I have got my Hiccs AND my 'upps' now !!!!

Solutiions please !!

Dea Xxx

11 minutes Ginns on a good boil - 'al-dente' !!!

JUST before it gets to the 'slimey'' atage !!!

Dea Xxx

To the tooth Dea.......hate over cooked pasta :-(

To the tooth indeed Ginns !!

I always hated pasta because I cooked it at school when I was about 8 and I obviously overcooked it as it was 'slimey' !!!

I now know how to cook it nicely and it is REALLY nice !!!

Dea Xxx

Joy
Dont stay away too long have a nice rest

I was at school in the 70's..................pasta, never even eard of it :-0


Your teacher must have been, forward thinking
