Morning all,

Just caught up on the overnight messages - 'MY', you were all very chatty!!

Tea and Danish Pastries for me please...yumm !!!

Hi, LK - before you ask, no I haven't done it yet but I will, I WILL !!

Don't worry though, there is REALLY nothing wrong with my eyes - I would be there 'double quick' if there were - I promise !! I wouldn't have asked on here if I thought it was an actual medical problem!

It was just one of those 'things' that I was wondering about like when you look at a light bulb, or the sun for a while then when you look away, or close your eyes, you can still see the 'bright blob of light' for ages afterwards.

Will get an appointment soon as I need to get new glasses anyway!

Ooopps! - just noticed - no Danish Pastries !! - Never mind, the croissants look delicious so I will have them instead.

Thanks Sylvs.

I have been driving since 1977 and I have just incurred my first points for "speeding" on my return from Somerset to Wales last week.
In fact my first points for anything .
Got the wotsit in the post today.

I KNEW it was a bad idea to go away with Bezzie as every time we get in a car together something ~~# happens.

First on the scene of an accident,,twice.

Leave London 10pm to drive to Somerset to miss traffic and a big accident on M3 so we are stuck for 2 hours.

M25..Front tyre blow out...ker bang,try staying in control of car with one of THEM.....But I did.(brag, brag)

M25 blow up my Daimlers engine,unheard of apparently so garage man informed me.

M4 breakdown,wait hours for breakdown tuck.

And on and on.

And now this.Thats it,I am NEVER going long distance driving with HER again.
It doesnt happen when I have other people in my car,so we are bocked when together I suppose..

Hair trimmed - highlights done - washed and blow dried - manicure - pedicure
Feel great
Her tray now has hairband - a dark bronze padded thingy - chunky silver/red lumpy bead bracelet and silver bracelet made of loads of rings - in little embroided sacks - porcelain 3 pce cup - pyjamas slippers and after shower slipper things with massage bits on sole - and sweetie bits - tiny candles

So happy with that -

She lands at Malaga at 17.00- so will be at my home 19.00 ish - super duper

Oh - I asked her -any thing I can get you - she answered immediately - Those chocolate ice-cream cones -

I had told her one evening of the telephone - I was eating a Cornetto shape ice-cream - with a thick choc cone - no biscuit - vanilla ice-cream with a big soft chocolate lump hidden inside - topped of with a thick chocolate cap with almonds

Have two boxes of 6 -

Fans never come on driving holiday over here with Bezzie - Please

Jules.
I dont live in London now,I left to come home in 1999 back to Wales.
I used to live in Holloway and Bezzie lived in Crouch End,she moved back to Wales 2 yrs ago and now about 15 miles from me.
I used to get the North Circular for M3 (Parents moved there in 1981) or M4 (Home to Wales)

Sure aint bringing her with me to Spain when I drop by Renes.


Ooooooooo Noooooooo.

I had some points given me for speeding about 15 years ago - the thing was, they caught me about 10 yards from the junction from my little 'drive' onto a minor road.

I had stopped at the junction and was driving a skoda at the time so I could not understand how my little 'clapped out skoda' could have done 0 to 43 in about 15 seconds !!!!!!!!!

Anyway, I couldn't argue but I was VERY impressed!!

Trouble is I just realised I havent changed the address on my licence and that is a fineable offence as well.

My house still stinks of vinegar as well

Beetroot or Runner bean chutney anyone?
I think I went a little OTT with the amounts I have made.
Had to empty the jars with nails and screws in from the garage and sterilise those too so I had enough jars.


Guess what a lot of people will be getting in their christmas pressies this year?

They let me out at weekends Jules..!
I am near Carmarthen now,much nicer,but I had to work to bring my kids up and work round here back then was hard to find that paid a decent wage.
