Risotto followed by rhubarb & apple/cinnamon crumble and a nice pink zinfandel.

How'd it go Mike? (Just the edited highlights please!)

 

today I have gone to Hayman's fisheries and stocked up on squid, giant prawns, red snapper and, for some reason known only to my husband, cod cheeks.

 

Then to tesco to get the rest of the gubbins for our little soiree tonight.

 

Then cooking ... hubby is cooking some sort of squid dish to start, then an indian prawn and coconut curry, sag aloo, riata, rice and nan bread.

 

The eating begins in about an hour, I can't wait ... It smells lovely

All the best, Mike; hope it goes well for you.

 

 

Been out, eaten like a horse, drank like a fish, the bloke's passed out and all's well with the world here 

 

Hope everyone's had a good day

Drove a mate and our wives to Donny, where I had booked a table in a restaurant. Parked up at a friend's house and then walked  to said restaurant. Had some decent meals and they took a fair amount on board. Saw a rather uninspiring footie match but it was fun being part of a large noisy crowd. Drove home and I have been drinking and watching MOTD whilst Mrs Jer starts the crossword. Whether or not she also has a Red Snapper is a moot point.

Just worried that the "bubble" will burst.

But for now - I'm taking my happiness while it lasts.

Because with the luck I've had over recent times - it won't last long.....

 good on ya Mike, hope it continues.

Meanwhile ...... Today we had a meeting with the local (unofficial) Downs Association with a view to producing some more interactive apps.
Picked the youngest up later. I've read a whole bunch of fairy stories and had tea and now he is in the bath.

 

Not today, we have been ensconsed in a hotel room, handy for a quick nap after lunch

then i shall begin....

 

after i lost my denture thingy plate-i went to dentist to get a new one-i was seen by a dentist who must have been all of 12yrs of age

his assistant was about 7

 

he took a mould

 

i went back today for teeth

he practically hammered them into my mouth to fit

they were HUGE!

i looked like esther rantzen

 

i said 'who made these-ray charles?'

he had no clue who i was on about

 

as i looked at these giant things in the mirror

i turned round quick & caught the 12yr old dentist rolling his eyes/pulling faces about me at the 7yr old dental nurse

 

for some reason in this country we dont like to tell off medical people

 

i went bonkers

 

OH was sitting outside & had to drag me out the room

I know I should not laugh, but when I read that I openly laughed out loud.

 

However I do hope you get a satisfactory resolution as dental work can be very annoying when it is not going right.
