Morning - we're surrounded by thick fog! Can hardly see our neighbours' houses, it's that bad.

I'm not going anywhere so will carry on with website edits + checking on the YDC

But first, a mug of tea.

Morning all well at least are fog isn't bad burnt off quickly & we have sunshine am a bit worried because am sure it won't last but after I have put some stock numbers, on hope to do a bit tidying up in the garden while its sunny.

Sgt hope you found lots of bargins at the carboot.

Hope the trip to hospital tomorrow will be an easy one but the children will be back to school.

Yes, found quite a bit of nice stuff Lieutenant Maplegin. Route marched around the car boot for a few hours and then down by a local canal so I'm knackered !



O/H didn't come with us as he was tutoring but now wants to go out for a walk ... all I want to do is sleep ! O/H also wants me to take brother and girl friend to a local pub after he finishes tennis so they can meet one of his friends so not sure how I will manage that and cook a meal at the same time ?!

.......not sure how I will manage that and cook a meal at the same time ?!

Eat at the pub?

[meebo1]

I think that is an excellent idea

[Maelbrigda]

I would agree - eat at the pub.

[cornishmaid1961]

That pub doesn't do food.
It worked out alright in the end as my brother didn't want to go out either, he was also tired and they have a long drive tomorrow to North Wales and are also stopping at Big Pit first en route. I must say I was very pleased after trudging through fields and woodland all afternoon. It was lovely in the sunshine though and there was one path that was lined with wild snowdrops which was so pretty.

Morning - kettle's on and tea is brewing, etc.

Another thick morning fog out there - just hope it clears up a bit quicker than yesterday's which was around until early afternoon.

Another couple of local sales via Facebook - we'll get the loft emptied at this rate!

Need my tea.

Mornin' troops guests will have just departed so I can get back to the normality of tick nicking and postage editing ... well until they come back next Saturday !

I had a message via Pinterest saying someone wanted to contact me so I accepted and had the message that the person and his wife went to school where the Old Soldier had taught. I answered and asked who he was and blow me down if it wasn't an old school friend of my brothers that used to come to tea at our house in the 1960's ! He sent me this massive email with lots of stories about my parents, the funniest being that my mum had given him toast and Marmite. He had never eaten Marmite before and put a huge dollop on the toast ! He thought it was disgusting but didn't want to offend my mother so when she left the room he stuck it down his shirt Marmite side to his chest and was thankful when she brought in cake to take the taste away ! He stayed all evening with this piece of toast stuck to him until he went home.

*LOVE* toast and Marmite - but only on a small bit of toast. Good pick-me-up if feeling a little light-headed.
