Well my DiL had the hide and audacity to turn up here on Chrissy day with a very large plate of home made truffles. I resisted as long as possible, gave some of them to other family members. However, I only had to put just one chocolate in my mouth and I was doomed!!

Oh dribble, dribble, they were so delicious. All different flavours, some with just a hint of liqueur. Hic! hic! It's all her fault.

And from there it was just a natural progression to other chocolates, nuts, biscuits, and lollies. Absolutely hopeless!! Sighs.........................

When exactly is Easter!!

not a fan of chocolates !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

What kind of person are you ?????????????? :_))))))))))))))))

I can't eat chocolate very much, cause my face gets to many pimples on it if I do. Very hard for a chocoholic like me.

Morning RMS. Chocolate is as addictive as alcohol or nicotine. Actually it is worse because it tastes soooooooooooo much nicer.

When it comes to chocolate it is won't power you need not will power.

Are you celebrating the new year in your freezer???

Just received a phone call from the blonde one. Come and pick me up please Mum. She is now safely home. Judging by the half empty vodka bottle she must have had a good evening.

Well I'm off to do some more filing. Almost finished this work garbage.

Enjoy your evening whatever you decide to do, or not do. I'll catch you later. 2010 here we come!!

Wonder what the time is over there. YG must have fluked that midnight post. Very clever.

Almost 2.00 am. Whoo hoo the thread is all mine for at least another 4 hours.


Hope there's no one on HRHs throne. Lunch time and I rather fancy eating my mid day sandwich sitting on a rather royal chair.

Hmm that's comfy. Could stay here for my afternoon nanna nap as well. Bother the paperwork. Although it is almost completed. Well about half completed. Oh damn back to work.

Does the time change when you edit a post. Let's conduct an experiment in the wee small hours of the morning and this has a fit of the collywobbles. Very slow responding it is!!

AuntySherlock

AuntySherlock Report 1 Jan 2010 06:13

Ok No it does not change the time. Oh I see. I can type fast on the new post but have to type slowly on the edit. Never noticed that before. I usually type like I live. Fast with lots of mistakes!!

Oh look it's morning time over there. There must be lots of headaches and rumbly tummies this morning. It is so quiet around this place.

I know. Brilliant idea. I'll be a really good friend and prepare breakfast for you all. Let me see.

We'll start with two or three rashers of bacon, lightly cooked in a little butter. Then two fried eggs each. Yolks still runny and just that little bit of uncooked egg white on the top.

Add to that half a can of baked beans, heated of course. All of this to go on two slices of wholemeal bread which has been fried in the butter left in the pan.

And to wash it down. Ah yes!! There's still half a bottle of champagne and almost a full bottle of lager left over. Will I mix them together. Nope not sure about that. Orange juice and lemonade, yep there's some here. OK mix the beer with the orange juice and the champagne with the lemonade.

There you go. Clang, clang, clag. (Dinner bell). Your breakfast is served, and I am not washing up!!

Rattle, rattle, bang, bang, bang. Thump, thump. Radio turned up VERY LOUD.

Your breakfast is getting cold. TRA LA LA TRA LA LA! Singing very loudly. Spot has just joined in Hooooooowwwwl, oooooowwwwllll , howly howl howl.

I've finished my work work. All I have to do now is pick up all the files and folders from my floor and put them in the car and take them back to work.


If you lot don't hurry up and start brekkie I am going to invite everyone from the Chat board over to Nut Lodge to have breakfast. Can you imagine what fun that would be?????!!

Just joking. Really, I'm running away very fast ~~~~~~~~~

We pause for the news. Tra la la.

Several parts of the UK have reported weird flying food falling from the sky. Residents have been amazed at the quantity and variety of the items which have been arriving across the UK in the early hours of New Year's Day.

The police and firemen.......................


Firemen, where, where. ~~~~~~ Bye

Bit of a hang over have we YG???? lol!

Thanks for the fry up Aunty, even if it is a bit cold now. Lovely thought though. The flying deposits of food has probably been used as a substitiute for grit on the roads.....not that your cooking is being critiscised, you understand!
