Thank you Spring


Roll on to me here in Norfolk

pleeeeaaassse



Cyns --- I put my grapefruit in a bowl -----the egg and rashers on a plate

In our house we permit two pieces of china per meal :-D

Your wish is my command m'lady I am rolling on

Error message again and again

Cant get to the last page so I cant see what youve posted

Hmmmmm just wondering what 2 rashers, eggs and grapefruit will look like on a plate....... :-D



Thank you Sylvs........my attention was immediately drawn to the creme brulee :-D :-D



Jonesey - I so agree........you would hope that those in authority would have learned some lessons from the last couple of winters....but no.


Snow = panic mode.


Mind you, we're as guilty in this house. From the end of our drive we are about 6 ft. from a main road.

The problem is, our drive is on a slope, so I have to reverse down that slope and then reverse up a slight slope onto the road. (which is naughty).

Or, my usual way is to reverse down the slope, turn at an angle and then drive partway up a slight slope on the pavement - which is our normal way of getting out.

However, ice and slopes don't mix. :-( :-(


We are staying put till things look a bit better.


I had to dig snow away from the garage this morning because I had some vegetables out there..........they were frozen!


Roll on Spring.............. :-D :-D

Hi All

Thank you Sylvia --- although tomorrow I am back on my grapefruit diet - so will have 2 rashers eggs and grapefruit

She will be SO glad to get back home Jonesey !! - I hope it doesn't take too long <3

Thanks for breakfast Sylvia - I will have some of everything hot and savoury please (except the fishy bits ;-)).

Lunch looks equally delicious. <3 <3

Just had a phone call from my daughter. She has been on holiday in Tenerife and was due back on a flight due to arrive at Birmingham airport at 0:55am this morning. On the way back the plane was first diverted to Cardiff airport and was making its descent there when it was re-diverted to Manchester airport.

After landing in Manchester at 2:10am they were told that they would be returned to Birmingham by coach but were then told that no coaches were available. Now they have been told that Birmingham airport is open this morning so they will be flown back to Birmingham but no time has been mentioned.

Britain + Snow = Total Chaos.

Lunch will be served at 1 pm

Hello Robert Spring! ;-)



Just watching the end of Psycho.......Hitchcock style! Arrrrrrr

My grand daughter's birthday party tomorrow.
Hope everyone can make it.
Birthday is on Monday. She will be 4. :-D :-D

it is sunny, blue skies, and around 8C at almost 1 pm



The weather forecasters and meteorologists in most of the US and Canada were actually apologizing earlier in the week because they had been so wrong in their long-range forecast for the winter.


It was supposed to be colder and snowier than "average", because of the La Nina effect ...........................


Instead, most areas have been warmer, and drier than average!



However, as one of our local meteorologists pointed out .......... there is still a month more of winter's stay.

He'll be 39 Dea - where does time go? His children think he is old :-S



Went to the takeaway and it's horrible out there - the roads are not nice at all. I had freezing rain on the windscreen which my wipers weren't clearing very well. I had to pull over until I could see properly... :-(



C'mon Spring..........we want you..... :-D :-D

That's SO nice Cynths - how old will he be ??

A 'little' older than 7 I would think ???
