Yay!! Sounds good to me

No set plans, a nice walk if the weather isn't too bad. A lay in for sure though

That sounds good. I wish I could lie in but I seem to wake between 7-7.30 most mornings.

Habit isn't it, do you have to then get up?
I can happily lay in awake for about an hour, unless the sun is shining outside

As soon as I'm awake, I have to get up.

 

My battery is down to 5 per cent, so I better sign out.

Goodnight Summer, sleep well and sweet dreams.

Hugs for Moonie and Ros.

 

Sweet dreams yogi sleep well and have a lovely day tomorrow

OMG what a fantastic pic - seen the Green thing on FB - and is sooo true

aw night yogi

Oh I meant to say that too Ros, I'm glad you remind me!
Mr summer read me the green thing a while ago, I like it

Good morning

I hope you slept well I can see sunshine through my curtains!!!!!!! lets hope it's staying a while

Good morning everyone. Weather is dry and there has been a slight frost.

I hope it has been dry and less windy where you all are.

Have a good day everyone.

Good morning everyone

 

A sunny day here It's frosty though.

Good morning everyone, a nice bright morning for a change and the forecast is dry for most of the day

 

Thinking about that article about being green I am thinking back to when we were first married and when you went shopping you took your bags (or baskets) with you.  If you went to the greengrocers for potatoes you held out your bag and the greengrocer weighed the potatoes and put them straight into the bag, dirt and all.  And I know my hubby used to collect pop bottles with his mates and go and get the penny or halfpenny deposit back on them, a nice little earner   It's only in the last 30 years or so that so much waste has crept in.

 

Have a good day everyone, whatever you're up to.

Squiggle, I still take my bags with me when I go shopping. I only accept plastic bags in a shop where they just go ahead without asking me unless the M&S carrier bags have become so worn that I need to replace them.

 

I hope it's sunny elsewhere today as it continues to be nice here.

 I can remember my mum having shopping bags and a basket.

I wonder what year plastic carrier bags were introduced in shops & markets..? If only we could go back and tell them not to do it!

I'm having a lovely day, we've had a walk, done our chores and can relax all afternoon now

Plastic bags were introduced in 1973 and startted being used by supermarkets in 1977. The plastic bags with handles were introduced in 1982. The concept of shops recycling them came in 1990.

Thank you El-Cyclopedia that's my curiosity satisfied

It's not that I know these things, I just Google them

Don't spoilt my illusion lol

Anyone for a curry? I've decided to order Indian tonight

How about a red hot prawn jalfrezi

Lol well that was good at the time but I think I'll pass tonight El. I've opted for a medium prawn balti

How has your day been El?

Fairly quiet, Summer. I went to church this morning, did some local shopping. I saw someone who used to go to our church years ago but hasn't been in recent times. I did see him sometimes in the Cheltenham M&S but that was quite some years ago. The last time I saw him was a few years ago in the hospital when my dad was admitted a couple of weeks before he passed away. He was also a patient so I did talk with him a couple of times when I went to see my dad but he's never been an easy person to talk with.

 

He had been on our sick list in church for the last few weeks so when I saw him briefly this morning I asked after him and he said that he was much better. After we went our separate ways I went to the vicarage and let the vicar know. I suggested she talk with another parishioner who knows the man I saw a lot better than I do. They would have a better idea as to if the man really was a lot better as the vicar wouldn't want to take him off the sick list unless he really was a lot better.

 

Isn't it funny how you bumped in to him out of the blue like that, I wonder if he'll be back at church soon then and how much better he is

Did you shop in m&s?

No, yesterday's was M&S, today was the local Co-op - milk, bread and some yoghurts. The Co-op is close to the church and tomorrow is forecast to be rainy (not heavy like the last few weeks).

 

I'm not sure the man I saw goes to C of E churches anymore. There are other churches in my area - baptist and methodist and he may go to one of those now. He's not a very communicative sort of person and I wasn't go to start asking. I don't know his address and he has a very common surname so trying to find it in a phone directory would be a bit pointless.

 

If I hear that his name is no longer on the sick list then I will know that he must be a lot better.

I hope he is a lot better then and that you get to hear news of him

I heard tomorrow's forecast is going to be rotten, what a contrast from today!

Evening all. Your Indian food sounds good, Summer. I would opt for chicken or lamb rather than prawns though.

Remember I said youngest son and DiL were coming for dinner? Well hubby decided we should go out for dinner, so we went to a restaurant called World Buffet - Indian, Pakistani, Thai, Chinese, Italian, Carvery Roast and sushi were on offer. We are stuffed! It was lovely to spend some time with son and his gf - good company and good food.

El, it's probably best you mentioned to the vicar that you'd met the gentleman and to suggest that she checks with another parishioner before removing him from the sick list. Let's hope he really is well again.

 

What food did you try yogi?
I'm glad you had a lovely meal out, how are son & his gf?

I had an Indian starter followed by a Chinese main and lots of bits and pieces for dessert. 

My son and his gf are great, thanks.

just got 'cyber bullied' by about a dozen miley cyrus fans on twitter

Good to hear it
Ah fab, I love a good mixture, and I love buffets!

Any plans for the fish tank?

What did you say to provoke them pirate?
I don't have a high opinion of her either

 Were they scary? Did they twerk at you?

Buffets are fab, I love that I can try little bits of things - then go back for more, if I like it.

Fish tank should be fine for new fish to be added at the end of the month.

they said madonna 'approved' of the twerking etc...

i said if billy ray cyrus said lourdes should act like a tart in public, madonna would go bonkers

bring on lots of little bullying 12yr olds lol

anyway i wasted the ringleader

 

the rest have gone to do their homework

little b@stards should be in bed anyway

Lol pirate I think Miley is a baaaaad role model for young girls, she's gone off the rails!

Rofl yogi

 

 ROFL Pirate, I hope you sorted them out good and proper.

Doesn't take much to ruffle a few feathers does it lol
I like twitter for being able to simultaneously run several accounts

since i annihilated the ring leader

its gone quiet!
