so congrats are in order are they ??? I have a drawer full of Peppermints, Biscuits, Nuts ,Crisps, Liquorice, no wonder I am slightly plump ????? The trouble is I go to get a sweet and they are all gone must have Mice or something.

Caught site of myself in a shop window this afternoon!! No one told me I was expecting another baby?? Where did that terrible tummy come from? Would it be anything to do with a diet of Pringles and Sausage Sandwiches I eat, because there isn't time to cook properly what with reading/posting on all these threads?! Merry

me too Snowdrop I was quite slim when I started but not now, I actually have a Belly. Anyway Room all ready now so back for a little while for another read.

Well, I wouldnt be frivalling if I had some good leads on my ancestors but all the ***s have clammed up. When I do get back on the trail you wont have me bothering you all.

It's you lot who lead me astray you know ....... I was a good girl until I found this board - now look at me - I've put on five stones in as many months (ok so they're in my pockets and hubby keeps saying it's to keep my cardigan from furling up, but I think he has ulterior motives - I've seen that glint in his eye as we pass by the river). My house isn't a tip - it's THE tip - although I did clean the fridge this morning, but only after the green monsters opened the door from the inside, popped their heads out, took one look at the kitchen and slammed the door shut screaming 'Oh no, it's too dirty out there even for us' - so I evicted them! If you lot didn't keep me entertained I might have another life - one where I could wander the streets day after day in the rain looking for someone to speak to, perhaps a kind word from a shopkeeper or a smile from a passing stranger. Even the fleas leave me alone these days. On the up side - I have developed a broad load (commonly known as a bottom) which spreads the load over the whole settee rather evenly which allows equal wear and tear on both seats at once. That's on the long, lonely nights I'm able to leave the computer and curl up in a ball to sleep there. We could draw up a pact whereby we all agree to be good and not post frivolous, entertaining threads - in that way we'd all get our research AND our hou.............. no, no, no, no. no - silly me can't do that, smack my hands quickly and wash my mouth out for even thinking about it. You're all as bad as each other and I mean baaaaad!!!! LOL .

Heather, I do remember Paul saying it should have been donut, but he definitely said adonis first. Mind you a donut actually sounds quite tempting, a nice jammy one! I'm particularly interested to know if the 3' wide tinsel will be enough to keep Glen decent, the only photo I've seen on his website, must be from a few years ago! Lynn

dont blame me, I spend too much time on here instead of that dreaded word H*******K , just spray some Polish around put some Bleach down the Toilet , make some fresh Bread that always works, and Brew some lovely Ground Coffee. Or why invite her round ???in the first place.

Val, youve kept me on and off here today and Ive still got some more typing to catch up on after all this time without puter. PLUS my sister - my houseproud, bossy boots sister is coming tomorrow and the place is a tip - WHAT can I do? And its no good suggesting the advanced housewifery techniques, she is too clever for that.

I'm just so glad Mrs G has popped out for a while. I'm just getting worried about the difference between feet and inches,and who is sticking what where. Glen

half the room done now for the other half !!!!

The poundland stuff is only good for a quick touch up. My own GlenTK brand is far superior,and available by mail order only.(should that be 'male order') mmmm, just as a thought,now my FTM homepage can be googled perhaps i should add a shopping cart feature,discounts to GR members (with 5 proven connected rellies) Thinking about it,i've been googled and fought over within the last half an hour.Plus offered WD40 by Merry.What a day. Glen

I think its known as a Freudian Slip Val. (Or wishful thinking)

how did that happen meant to say 3 inches, my inch thing isnt working

alright , he obviously doesnt want to live here, so how about I hire him for the top of my Xmas Tree ?????

I only buy the best its about 3' thick so should be ample, or is that too thick ???

Three feet, Val????! Merry

That's OK - I have a can of WD40 he can borrow. Merry

Yes, the cheap stuff can chaff and we dont want to spend any extra on the lube.

Well, I do hope it is DECENT tinsel? Glen needs the thick and extra fluffy sort, not the type from Poundland! Merry

I will even throw in New Tinsel , for FREE
