Thanks for breakfast Sylvs and that lunch sounds delicious <3 <3

I shall be back later to sample it all..............

Dea Xxx

Oops.........bit of a bill from last night! We need to pay some of the cocktail bill back to SiL

Fab night, had good food and lots of laughs :-D

Going to see sis at lunch time, she's not in a good place..........

Good morning all and that food sounds absolutely wonderful Sylvs.....thank you. :-D


A quick visit as will be off to you know where soon.


Oooh Sylvs....you are very wary of money fings aren't you? I do wonder what will happen when payment by cheque fizzles out - as it is bound to. We'll probably have to press our eyeballs against a screen for verification.........lol


Sorry about your sister Gins......hope she has a better day today bless her.


Linds.....enjoy the service.


Hope Renes has a great time.

See you later....~~~~~

Good morning one and all.

Just been reading the newspaper and it looks as if MC might be a bit damp as in her part of the world a months worth of rain fell in 24 hours.

Here in the West Midlands we had some sunshine on Saturday. I spotted a pair of blue tits in my garden yesterday afternoon. I was surprised that Mrs J thought that it was warm enough for a bit of topless sunbathing. :-D

Oh to be in England now that Spring is here.

Norty Norty Jonesey. ;-) ;-)

Oh what has Dea left for brekkie:

I've spied a cinnamon roll and some crispy bacon



Carlo is my OH and he's disabled so going out in rain not much fun :-(

'Norty Jonesey' indeed Toots! - I don't know how his poor wife puts up with him !! :-0 ;-)

I don't think going out in the rain is ever 'fun' Toots - far better to stay indoors and watch it through the window :-)

Your OH has a lovely name by the way.............

Dea x

Just popped in to say hello

2nd cake behaved itself.

Just to whip cream and ice which I am going to do now

Oldest GD was up most of the night being sick :-(

Parents got about 5 hours sleep at one point I was going to go and stay overnight :-(

I'm off to get ready.

Gins <3 <3 <3 <3

((((Hugs Gins and sis))))

I'm not budging an inch until the 1p.m. Lunch service.

WOW,Syls.!!!!!

Oh-well-don't look for the Red-Onion Marmalade,gang, as it's been miraculously transported to my kitchen.

Birds,tweeting conclaves,mosquitoes,Mrs.J.-all pale in comparison to what the squirrels are up to out there. :-0 :-0

Love to Ginny. <3 <3 <3 <3

Afternoon everyone!

Gins, hope you find your sis comfortable ((hugs)) <3

Dea, going out in lashing rain is great fun! Waterproofs on, down on the sea front with the sea all black and choppy, waves crashing over onto the prom, then back home for pot of tea and toasted teacakes - bliss!

Jonesey, hope you're OK. Yes, things a trifle soggy up here. Thankfully we live at the top of a bank so not flooded.

Toots - did you really put the bacon in the cinnamon roll and eat it?

Linda, have a good day.

Sylvia - we're expecting company so I've pinched platefuls of lunch and am going to pass it off as my own. Sorry everyone else.

I used to live by the sea for many years. I find it a great comfort..............staring out on the waves, it's much bigger than anything going on in our lives

We are land locked here, so no chance of a walk by the sea :-(

Thank you girls, for your thoughts <3

Oi!!!!!

MC-put back that crockpot of Leek and potato soup.


Moxx

Mo :-P

:-D :-D :-D

MC

Ha!

I see the LINDs in your future. :-P <3

MC and Mo fighting over the food.......whatever next......... :-S ;-)

Anyway, the creme brulee is MINE.......hands orf!


I like that sort of rain walk too MC but I don't particularly want to go out shopping in the rain - if that makes sense....... :-D


Hope Linds is haing a good day and that all has gone well.


Mr Jones!! what ARE we going to do with you at all....? ;-)

creme brulee...........I can see that under your 'apron'
