She was in my neck of the woods today when she made that statement. Some woman was interviewed on the local news - she had a present for Kate and the baby. It was a pack of baby vests 
- I bet Kate was thrilled 
Oh that made me laugh!
Cinds hope you're feeling better soon, sounds horrible for you.
Aims! i dont think you live too far from me...... if you get really desperate 
They've unblocked it but reckon it needs a new cistern as the flush isn't powerful enough, it's only 2 yrs old 
so i'm having as many wee's as I can before the next plumber comes 
I've just made the biggest fry up and now feel sick. It's one of those things I never eat but when doing my shopping there seemed to be all the ingredients on sale (potato farls 50p, soda farls 50p, eggs 50p etc) so we had those plus bacon, sausages, white pudding (50p), mushrooms (50p lol) and a buttered bap which was also 50p for a pack of 4 Quite a feast for only a few quid for all of us.
Now I want something sweet though 
I doubt you could eat that often, I feel full just reading it .
Definitely a one off Erin, I am stuffed!! Machel that was the only thing missing....tea. I love tea with a fry but forgot to make it.
I usually do Slimming World fry ups if I ever make them but this was a full fat one 
Although I hadn't eaten breakfast or lunch so that will be all my meals in one.....except for tea and something sweet later of course 
Ells you can't beat an Ulster Fry 
Yours wasn't that unhealthy... my Aunty Lily did four different types of fried bread on the side... soda, potato, wheaten, and ordinary pan
Ever had boxty? They eat that down the country + its worse 
Soaks up all the remaining fat in the pan and tastes like fried putty.
You a devotee of fried putty then Rog?
Oooh it was bad Rog, the potato and soda breads were deep fried It's the best way though!
I have never had boxty and by your description I am very glad I haven't! Sounds rank

Potato and soda bread definitely tastes best fried. A fry now and again does no harm Ells.
I'm in a grrrrrrrrr mood. Just back from Currys - Mr Woo's net book broke - it was less than a year old and he had a really good(
) well expensive cover plan. He took it in on 25th Jan ..........didn't hear anything - went back after a week or two - they hadn't sent it off .............now they are saying he'll get a replacement - all good - when he asked what colour they went off to find out and said ......ooooh actually they don't do that one anymore. They shrugged their shoulders as if to say what can you do.
Mr Woo has been back and forth 5 or 6 times .............absolutely useless. I went with him today! - When I said 'what about the stuff in his old computer?' they said oh as a gesture we'll transfer it free of charge I pointed out that this was in the warranty. When I asked why he wasn't given a loan PC/lap top they said that as it was still under manfacturers warranty and wouldn't come into effect until the year was up - I pointed out on the print out that he was in fact entitled to one.
We were in the store being passed from one assistant to another for an hour. What a fiasco - I asked to see the manager twice and was fobbed off. We now have a new net book supposedly arriving on Friday and everything will be transferred over. It's like they've done us a bl**dy favour
. I told the guy that I will be putting in a written complaint - he said - ooh we are sorry - he gave me a leaflet and said - here's the phone number to complain to - turns out it's the number for the 'insurance' guys.
FAIL ................it was Currys that has been absoutely worse than useless. I'll wait untill we get the replacement and then they'll get the mother of all letters.
Jeeeeeeez - they had no net books in store - I said well we want a replacement what are you offering. He took me off and said - these are an incredibly good deal at the moment - they're half price (aboutÂĢ500) - it was this 40" flat screen thingy .....................
. How is that a replacement for a bl**dy net book.
RANT OVER - for now
You a devotee of fried putty then Rog?
I was staying with cousins and ate it out of politeness. It literally did taste like putty. I dunno how I managed to get it down my gullet. I couldn't believe it was actually food.

Bliddy hell Soozy they sound pathetic I'll be avoiding Currys!
I was an admin in Comet years ago Soozy and they were given commission for selling those extra warranties but when ever anyone brought anything back no one did anything, there was a guy with Dvd player he had brought back 4 times and they 'fixed' it. One of those times the top of it got all scratched etc but they still didn't do anything about replacing it. I personally would never bother with the things, as imo they're worthless
Awwww noooooo! My mums house is being renovated starting tomorrow and I'm just remember all the wee love letters about my first love (I was 10!!) that I hid all round the house like down the back of the fireplace and behind the medicine cabinet that has been screwed to the wall since I was a kid and then then time capsule in the back yard filled with gushy childish love poems for this boy. I just hope whoever finds it doesn't know him or me!

Not that sweet when you know the workmen are all local and might actually know the fella the love letters are for

Embarassing but still quite romantic
Roger I am giggling away like a schoolgirl with embarrassment! The OH thinks it's quite funny and as he knows some of the workmen he'd decided to alert them to the time capsule in the back yard in the hop of getting it back to me. It would be quite funny to see after nearly 20 years.

Aww hope they find it... bet they're dead innocent and sweet.
Thankfully he's not Moonie He works elsewhere.
I'm a bit less embarrassed now. I was only 10 or so. It was just the initial thought of everyone reading my silly love letters but hey ho

Ideal Jenstar,does it come in other colours?
A newspaper's unfortunate headline from March 5 which was supposed to read "grapefruit" has gone viral on the internet.
The Mantako Free Press chose to replace the letter 'G' with a picture of a slice of grapefruit in the article title. However, the end result can be seen below in a photo tweeted by Bryan Armen Graham:
The publication responded to the mishap after the mistake was shared across the internet.
They stated in a post titled next time we will just use the G, that what happened was unintentional, with Jim Santori adding: "Obviously, in hindsight, we would have done this differently."
Ideal Jenstar,does it come in other colours?
I didnt see any, it does come in a different pattern, same style so i think i may have to buy that one too
Where'd you get it? I like the shape of it, I want one for my holidays
Sorted out my outfit for my birthday party, it's a party at home so i didnt want to get too dressed up so this is what i bought
A most agreeable selection Jen.
Enjoy your party and new outfit.
Last night I went to bed all sleepy and its very rare I go to bed and fall asleep fast. The husband was away doing a industry show on the west coast and was staying away.
Fast forward to 1 am, I woke up to someone trying to crawl in to bed with me.
I lay there so scared....only for the husband to say 'HIYA I was missing you so I drove home'
Very Nice but, it could have turned out so bad
