Good morning all :-)

I am starving!! - It has taken me over 3/4 hour to get in to breakfast!!!

I arrived around 7.15 but the silly computer wouldn't let me in !! :-( :-( :-(

Had to restart it all and it took AGES to get it to close down !

Anyway - here now - lovely breakfast Sylvs <3 <3

Hope you get things sorted tomorrow Linds <3

See you all later,

Dea Xxx

Good morning all :-D


Thank you for breakfast Sylvs.......lunch looks wonderful and I look forward to it when I get back from you know where. Have you thought of googling for OH's cardi to see if anyone else in your area stocks it?



Gin? You must surely know what a Cenotaph service is ?? :-S :-S :-S


We have a large gathering at our local Cenotaph which is within the church grounds. It closes four main roads and needs police escorts. It is lead by local clergy and, each year, there seem to be more and more young people joining in. Very moving, especially the Last Post and the lowering of the flags.



Linds, hope all goes well tomorrow <3



Must go......~~~

Mornin all~~~~~~~~~~


Cenotaph service....................what do you think!


Thank you for breakfast Sylvs <3




Lovely weather today, sunny and crisp

Oh dear me.....I cant remember


Can I re whisk Yorkshire pudding batter after its been left over night or do I just pour into the hot tins :-S

I seem to remember my mom saying, it will knock all the air out of it if I whisk it again :-S

I don't know about overnight but certainly when you first whisk it you need to let it rest!

After all that time though, I think I would be tempted just to mix it through with a fork !!

Dea xxx

Thats what I'm tempted to do Dea

Well, they will taste good whatever happens in the oven!

Just do it Ginns !!

As long as the fat and the oven is hot enough, they will taste georgeous !!!

Snow. :-( :-| :-(



Very good crowd this morning for the Remembrance Parade today. I had to park on the local Tesco car park and walk because of the traffic queues :-S

The weather was perfect - chilly but not freezing. All ages were gathered and I could see eyes being wiped. Even the children were respectful during the Silence.




Dea.........how can you keep losing your emoticons?? Dear oh dear. <3
