  1. Just been reading how common it is for break ups around Christmas . So here's a handy tip ..Always put your Daughters boyfriend to end of your family photo .
  2. I'll never forget when my parents sat me down and told me Santa wasn't real I was heartbroken... I'm not sure how I managed to go to work that day! So glad that Avril knows the truth ,I feel much better now 😊
  3. Loft are more trouble than they are worth https://youtu.be/VvzfI7cXCDM 😡
  4. There was something on TV about Christmas lights and apparently the ones that twinkle or flash on on and off can save you money . Must be all those bits unlit saving money ,who would have thought it πŸ˜• I'm as enthused as Avril this year but will probably wrap a bit of tinsel around our solar powered welcome light ,it's the taking part though really . This time of year reminds me of some factory manager teams I used to meet ,they also reminded me of Christmas lights. They clung together, half of them didn't work and the other half were not that bright either.πŸ˜‰ I suppose a timely reminder about your pets and Christmas lights is in order ! Last year my mate Barry was shocked to find his dog had ate a full string of tree lights. I rushed him and his dog to our local vets who was pleased as he managed to remove them from the dog .The dog was de-lighted as well πŸ˜‚ Have a good day
  5. How to kill a few hours ,even though I can use my phone (Samsung ) or tablet which runs Windows 10 .My much loved Windows 8.1 is now coming to end of update support . I thought I would try for a Windows 10 update and thought I would have to buy a product key but nope all went in fine ,for nowt . I thought it would cost me but it's up and running which is better than scrapping my old faithful. So if you have an old 8.1 and you have a couple of hours spare ,give it a go
  6. I know where you're from 😊 as a recent retiree ,trainee you might say ,I think we are getting the hang of things . After our meal out yesterday we treat ourselves to a night out at the Hilton ,a change from our four walls . The only thing we had to do was relax ,enjoy the footie (not the first 20 mins) and look forward to a lovely buffet breakfast this morning . The only other person we saw was sat 50-60 ft away so very pleasant for a Monday morning . Really liked the Christmas tree they had
  7. Same here,we use the slow cooker a lot and if we put the ovens on we bulk cook and freeze food for later. We seldom fry food and the deep fat fryer got binned a long time ago. So your not alone.
  8. Very cool and wet today and not much doing.Thinking about it if we weren't retired, we would have been on a Christmas works do. I had a cunning plan though. Now we're full time retired (sounds better than pensioners We made our own works do fo us twoπŸ˜„ Saw this 10z beauty on the menu and thought the turkey can wait 😍
  9. We should have been on the Azura next week 9th -23rd but due to one thing or another , it was not to be this time . Love the photo's Graham and glad you and Pauline had a great time away . I see that TV star Kevin The Carrot featured in your pics 10 and 17 πŸ˜‰ Take care πŸ˜€
  10. You seem to be posting a lot of cat memes Graham ? Are you thinking of getting one yourself 😊 Our Grandkids kept pestering last Christmas for a cat but after all the upset it caused , I think we are going back to having turkey again
  11. Last night we were watching various Christmas markets people have filmed on Youtube. Some were good and actually showed you around and also what's on the stalls . Others were to busy filming themselves ,so you hadn't got a clue what the stalls were selling . Two of the best markets were in Germany and Slovakia and had Christmas carols playing and even a nativity scene ,a thing we noted was missing from our UK towns and city markets. Ours seemed more stick a fairground in the town centre and those cone shaped things that resemble a Christmas tree ,whilst playing anything but festive music . To say the newspapers are full of doom on how Christmas will be a disaster ,most UK markets seemed rammed with people queuing up to buy a cup of mulled wine or a German sausage costing anything between four to six pounds . Maybe not too bad ,who knows . We aren't going to any markets this year but if we were we would head abroad as we think they are better . In our country the ones around London seemed the better ones but the best market to us not very festive but the varied choice of goods ,was the Bourough market would be our choice . If your off to any markets ,wrap up warm and enjoy 😊
  12. A bit like fuelling the car up at a garage only to find a garage 2 mile up the road is selling their fuel 5p a litre cheaper ! Do I now take the car for a run up and down the motorway to burn fuel off ,so I don't miss out on the 2nd garages offer ? πŸ˜•
  13. Just a heads up people ! Mrs k is a member of a local community web page . She has just informed me that two separate incidents with private courier delivery's have walked down their paths ,held the parcels near the door ,took a photograph, never knocked on the door and started to walk off with their parcel . Luckily both households were quick to open the door and challenge them . Both have let the police know and photographed the cars registration and one gave the police CCTV evidence as trying to contact the courier firm is nigh on impossible . It maybe fine where you live but keep an eye out if your expecting anything .
  14. Hi everyone ,been to the dentist for my dental examination and got away with a bill of Β£23.80,so that's it until next summer . I made the dentist giggle when I said " Goodbye and I hope you keep well. I wont say much more as every time I open my mouth, it costs me money !"πŸ˜• Sad to see Christine McVie from Fleetwood Mac has died, great talent gone As we move into the season of good cheer, looking at the calendar ,we seem to have more strikes than a bowling alley ! Not all is bad , according to my deluxe chocolate advent calendar. only 3 days until Christmas . I love this time of year ,it's the only month you can shout DONT COME IN THE ROOM and they wont cos they think your wrapping a present for them , nice to be left alone πŸ˜‰ I can spend more time reading on here about the wondrous things people are making ready for Christmas ! Which reminds me ...
  15. I was just about to say from that page use the link but you sussed it 😊
  16. As solentsam (GOOD CALL) has put there is a workaround .. LOG IN but do not click on your name THEN PASTE https://www.pocruises.com/my-account and you should be there 😊
  17. A timely reminder to test and check your fire alarms . If it's not a built in one check on the back for date as they should be replaced if over ten years old.
  18. They don't make things like they used to . A fitter once told me he kept a lump hammer handy . " If it dunt work give it a clout ,nine out of ten ,that's all it needs " he said . Not that I recommend doing so to your PC/Phone but I can understand the urge to do so .πŸ˜€
  19. Just tried on my laptop again and I'm getting logged in ok but now at the top of the page When I click onto "Hello Kalos" to go into my account (the tab next to logout).. I am also getting "Sorry, there's been a problem. The page you are looking for can't be found" So me thinks the problems are at P&O's end . I can still get in via the my booking page using booking reference though .
  20. Just been on mine...no problem. You never said what your trying to log in with ? I have just logged in using Google Chrome on a windows laptop and then on my Android phone both are working fine . I once had an issue and so I deleted the desktop short cut and gave the PC a good clear out of cookies and cache ,which did the trick for me .
  21. Different things amuse different people. I once watched a dog chasing his tail, I thought, "Dogs are easily amused" It was then I realized I was watching a dog chasing his tail.πŸ˜€
  22. Thank you for your report back and lets hope things get better for you .
  23. They say football is a funny old game but that depends on if your team is winning or losing😊 The world cup is every is every four years unlike Emmerdale, Corrie which with others seems to be every day 365. Not that I have anything against these programs ,I do watch them now and again . I'm wondering how Ena Sharples is getting on helping her mate Minnie Cauldwell locate her missing pussy ,which I am sure I saw on a wall as the credits rolled by πŸ˜‰ I realise now these programs are not real , a bit like those fans stood in the baking heat , singing "Footballs coming home " but it's nice to dream for a while. I can think of a lot worse things to watch on TV, Origarmi for begginer's , might watch it just to see what unfolds πŸ˜• I suppose it would be good if they gave everything their own channels but you know what would happen then ..People would complain there's nowt on the telly when they tuned into the main channels ! Channel five seem to have almost got it right ,a few heart warming Christmas films (in Nov) followed by a few cops Tasering some nasty people , followed by the lovely kind folk of Barnsley who go out of their way to injure themselves ,so we get to see how the hospital runs . People will always moan there's nowt on telly these days ,me Nan always had a jug of flowers on hers but the top of our telly is way to thin for that . Whatever you watch I hope you have an enjoyable time doing so. Take care
