Son of Anarchy Posted February 12, 2022 #31153 Share Posted February 12, 2022 Big games for the Six Nations today - Will Scotland beat Wales in Cardiff to continue their Grand Slam hopes? And of course France V Ireland, both contenders for a Grand Slam. Who will still have that in their sights this afternoon? An afternoon of rugbyfest here today. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ccpm Posted February 12, 2022 #31154 Share Posted February 12, 2022 Brother has come by unannounced, funny that as he lives 2.5 hours away, so stretching credulity as to just passing. Anyhow he has announced that he will be no trouble as he can use the large TV for the Rugby and have whatever else on his ipad. I managed to sound very unimpressed and have guilt tripped him into going and buying all the seafood from the shop here, something fizzy and some fresh crusty bread. Graham your food photos are always lovely and I used them as part of my guilt inducing tactics. Once I have knocked up a sterling seafood whatever I honestly don't care what he does viewing wise as I can escape up here with the low riders who are all hoping that whatever he is watching it lasts forever as 10 mile walks are never on their agenda. I'm offering a little prayer that this version of the thread remains if the other one isn't going to be restored. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Splice the mainbrace Posted February 12, 2022 #31155 Share Posted February 12, 2022 My Saints play Man U at lunchtime today, even though we have played well and got good results lately we don't get many points against Utd and they are due an upturn in form soon. Wife will watch the Wales v Scotland RU game due to her heritage, I'm not that interested. It's an interesting atmosphere in the house when England play Wales, seems to mean so much more to the Welsh but for the English it's just another match. I'm glad that I cut the grass on Thursday looks like several days coming up of rainy/showery days. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

purplesea Posted February 12, 2022 #31162 Share Posted February 12, 2022 Morning everyone. Dull and overcast here with a cold wind. Been to Penzance to collect my Tesco shopping and nearly got frozen putting petrol in the car. Did notice that although the daffs are out in the fields there don't seem to be as many fields planted this year. Take care and stay safe.

We sailed on Britannia and Iona last summer, so I guess that she is going to seem a lot smaller! Edited February 12, 2022 by Astrajet 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lincslady Posted February 12, 2022 #31171 Share Posted February 12, 2022 Just got back from lovely chatty long lunch at friends' house which I had not seen since they moved in a year ago. They are around my age, and with a few health problems, but still cooked a full three course meal, with a sherry and some wine, and we put the world to rights at the same time. I need hardly say what the topics of conversation were at present, but they included the fox hounds and hunters which had recently been in their garden, and the horrors of Hermes deliveries. The others were the obvious ones! Warms the cockles to have kind generous friends. Can I ask Graham for a vague idea of where he and Pauline are? Certainly looks like it may be Spain. I am not envious today, as I have had such a nice time. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeanlyon Posted February 12, 2022 #31172 Share Posted February 12, 2022 Well not going on cruises has certainly bought me something I wanted for a long time. An electric garage door. It arrived in a few weeks. bliss. Just lost an old friend who was a Flight Engineer with my airline. Going to Sussex for the funeral week after next and am sure will be meeting lots of folk who I haven't seen for 40 years! Also going to visit the Gatwick Aviation Museum, so making a little holiday of it. Then away again in March, up to Rutland to see some old friends, visiting Bletchley Park on the way back and stay with more friends in Petersfield. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ccpm Posted February 12, 2022 #31173 Share Posted February 12, 2022 I am risking we may be back to normal. Graham you may remember you posted a picture of a dog and cake. I contacted you and Pauline supplied me with the details. The wedding of my niece has been an ongoing saga for so long it has been very much a non celebration. BUT just to report they were married 5 weeks ago and they had no family there BUT afterwards they asked my Brother to foot the bill. That is why he is here this weekend he thinks I might help him understand it. A short while ago SIL was here asking if I could help her understand both that and her sons attitude which saw her as their bank, I am mystified is there a manual? I do not have kids and do not know.

Jean I turned my double garage into a kitchen but I reinstated a garage to the side of the property and had an electronic access it has been great and I hope that you enjoy it.

I still help my son & daughter out financially occasionally and they are in their thirties. My parents did the same for me when I separated from my first husband. It must be a parent thing Michelle 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
