Oh Jem.....tell us what's happening. We take the good with the not so good on here.

Sorry Everyone,

Baby's not doing well. Was "listening" to you all as you always cheer me up. Was not going to comment as I didn't want to spoil the mood of the thread, but couldn't stop myself from joining in "The war of the Rolls"!
Please don't stop your banter, I was enjoying it- Love Jem <3

I was only 3 when I left, Linda :-0

Hello Jem - how is the new grandson and your daughter.

Ah reinforcements, welcome Jem

Good Morning Sue,

You could clip your diamond earings on, instead of making holes in your ears.

It would have been churlish not to buy an orchid from the man - and it was very kind of him to give you three more.

Hello Jemima - How is your daughter, and new Grandson today?
You obviously know the difference between a bun and a roll :-D

The North/South divide must be a wall of buns and bread rolls :-D

Well you shouldn't as you come from Leeds

We say bread rolls, Linda :-\

It was nice of him Sue.

Please tell Tec that you know what a bread bun is

Burger in a Bun!!! :-D :-D
Then there's a bap!! What about a Barm Cake?!!!! :-D :-D :-D

What strange conversations you two have :-D

I do have my ears pierced, Tec - how else could I wear my diamond earrings? I do not swing from trees half naked - I do have standards :-|

Yesterday (Sunday) we went to the markets as the sun was shining and we thought it would be nice to walk around. It was very chilly so we didn't stay for long. However......we happened to meet a gentleman selling orchids :-D This man used to work with my OH but retired some years ago. He and his wife are downsizing as he can no longer look after a large garden. I have visited this garden and it is beautiful with a large area devoted to his orchids. Just out of politeness you understand I bought a large orchid. Then while I was chatting to his very nice wife he put three more into a bag for me with a little book about caring for them. Wasn't that nice of him :-)

May have escaped your attention, but I actually live North of London, but I've never heard of a bread bun.

Buns are, well buns.

Bread rolls are, well bread :-D

You're a funny lot up there :-(

The whole of the country who live north of London

Whoever heard of a bread bun? :-D

No we mustn't gloat when Sue is around :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D

No a ham bun, with ham and a bread bun

Bread rolls are just so southern

Yes - looks like we will win the Ashes again, but let's not gloat :-D :-D :-D

How can you have a ham bun? - do you mean a ham roll?

I see that we are going to win the Ashes tomorrow because it is going to be raining all day :-D

No thank you, I have had a ham bun

Thank you - I'm having a hot cross bun, would you like one?
