  1. Yep take a book with you 🙃 Your opening line to nosey git could be... Just got back from Africa and my husband was covered in blotches but they are going now but I've got them now. Hubbie thinks scabies, I hope not cos they spread easy ,don't they ?😉
  2. I have just asked permission to tell you this true story . Many years ago before Mrs K and I took up cruising we were on holiday on the mainland in Spain. She sometimes used to get cold sores in hot sunny weather and needed some cream for her lips. This was explained to the assistant in the chemist who was taking many orders for the chemist to dispense, to the folk who were waiting for their meds. After about 5 minutes the chemist came out of the rear of the shop and said .. " CREAM FOR THE LADY WITH THE HERPES "🤣
  3. Oh yes ..... https://youtu.be/AJ7jGrwg3T4?si=R8Qab1naUl_idJ-Z 🙃
  4. Hope all goes well with the retest, my Mrs was sent back saying the potassium was showing high but next test was reading OK. They put it down to using her veins as a pin cushion .
  5. One thing I learnt as a teenager was,never ever tell your mum that you liked Shiphams salmon spread paste. As it did not cost that much she went to the local cash and carry and bought a tray of the stuff. Another culinary delight back then was Heinz salad sandwich spread.. You can still get that now (but I won't) going on for £2 a jar which is mad for some chopped up veg in salad cream .
  6. Glad you said the supermarket and not the chemist 😉
  7. Never let any of our dogs lick our faces as you never know where they have had their chops ,do you ? Reminds me of a man who walked in a pub ,to see his mates dog slurping and cleaning away at it's private parts . "Bye heck ,I wish I could do that " To which the dog owner replied .............. " Buy and feed him some crisp and he may let you " 🙃😉😄
  8. Morning 13.c and a bright sunny day and should stay dry for us where we are . Looking through the papers I see some folk want Heinz to start making tins of Toast Toppers again . I don't think I ever got around to trying a tin when it was on the go . Got me thinking back to my camping days when me and the lads would go camping, armed with a two ring cooker and a 2 piece pan set . Our tea more often than not would be a tin of beans ,a tin of potatoes and a packet of Batchelors Bean Feast. We would have a meal within ten minutes before running off to the pub for a few beers, another product that that is no longer made . Is there any food products that you used to buy that have bit the dust ? Take care and have a nice day .
  9. Vot type os vax did you use on der carpets ? Bee's or candle 😉
  10. Walking dogs for miles in heat is never a good idea,so great advice . Anyone that does could put on a thick woolly jumper,scarf big thick winter coat and I guess they would walk about as far as the dog wanted to go 🙃
  11. Had a nice Sunday meal out yesterday followed by a nice room with a view that had air con and a mini bar included (most of which our family will enjoy ) as we don't drink most of it . After a nice breakfast, made our way home but even 24hrs away was well worth it . Not much doing today ,hope you all have a good day. 20240811_174423.mp4
  12. My two rules about secrets are 1.. never give all your secrets away 😉 A bit too hot to cook lunch today so had a turkey and beef with a nice cool drink
  13. Looks to be a dry sunny day today but looking at the weather maps could get a bit damp tomorrow for some of us , so best make the most of it and enjoy whilst it lasts.. Whatever your up to ,have a good day !
  14. On my laptop "Nothing" yet my phone had this annoying data collection crap that kept wanting me to accept but I declined . It kept coming back so I deleted cookies and cache and removed the Homepage shortcut on the phone . I have re -signed back in made new Homepage shortcut and it seems to have gone away . Think it must have been an old cookie in the system causing the problem .
  15. Morning , love or hate it ,tis the start of the football season, well for some teams it started last night .Will your team be top of the table? Who knows but for some joy ,others heartbreak. I remember when I used to go to football,if they lost it put me off my food. I would go into the pizza shop and they would ask would I like my pizza cut into eight pieces but I would ask for four as I wasn't that hungry and couldn't eat that many🙃 Hope you all have a great day- Take care .🙂

  17. All depends on what you personally deem as a salad ingredient . As a young un I was brought up with spring onions ,grated carrot and beetroot which are all veg. Folk even have nuts as part of a salad ,I suppose if we don't like it we have to ask those eateries to leave it out . The worst one for me was a wrap from some Indian take away's using raw red cabbage as salad ,hated the stuff.
  18. @grapau27 Ok we give up where's the sandwich 🤔😉🤣
  19. We envy your transport system compared to ours , local buses are every blue moon. Very rare you can get a direct train out of Sheffield to Southampton, messing about crossing London is not for us . . As for a P&O coach we would need a taxi to and from Woodhall services, which getting a taxi return from there works out a tad expensive The car can get us there and back to Southampton on one tank anyway. Just checked mileage between MOT's and we had only done just over 2600 miles. That included at least one trip down to the port.The car tax for our car is only £30 PA So our future plans will be by car and always a park and stay hotel with transfers as this suits our needs at the moment .
  20. Sorry to hear that but as I have no flights planned cannot help you. Maybe try giving P&O a ring and see if they can get in from their end ? Good luck
  21. Just logged in and also my P&O both working fine. Have you tried delete old cookies cache etc ? I logged in on laptop and i phone (Google) both OK.
  22. Chuck a few slices of turkey on with that lot and years ago that would be my Boxing day tea . Talking of turkeys.. They can really look after themselves .I was on YouTube and came across a film Turkey vs eagle vs snakes . No contest, the turkey wins every time
  23. Morning everyone ,we have a bright sunny start to the day 18.c. I will be booking the car in for mot & full service.The car is coming up 9 year old and serves us well for the little use we use it overall and we still have no desire to swap it for another car yet . That's our plans for today, so whatever your planning ,have a good day.🙂
  24. Sailing on Iona, G505N Thu 13 Mar 2025 - Tue 18 Mar 2025 Southampton, UK to Southampton, UK is showing on web site if that's what you were after Sue
