Good morning everyone, oh I so gave those lozenges some stick last night. Spent all night reading reviews on a camera me and my sis were thinking of getting my mum and dad, had a look this morning to order it and they've put the price up, grrrr. Off to Manchester this after, oh Joy

[loopygran]

Hi Sinfree,

It's so bad when they put prices up over night like that, but good that the frustration didn't have you succumb to the the dreaded cig I hope things go okay in Manchester

[Hidden in reply to loopygran]

Well I'm back, in one piece, just about. OMG the Tram was ridiculous. We have suffered for years with road works, bridge strengthening, road closures and general turmoil in our towns' streets for this dam tram into Manchester and for what? To put just two carriages on the tram on a Saturday at the busiest time of the year and when there's a match on at Old Trafford. We were packed on that tram like sardines, talk about getting to know someone intimately, I bet I could have counted the pores on the blokes face who was stood next to me. Manchester's Market Street was just a sea of people, the noise of just people talking in shops was deafening. It was sooooo horrible. I have never wanted a cig so much since this time last year. I stood surreptitiously in the Arndale with my e-cig hidden between my gloves and had candid puffs now and then to retain my sanity. For what? to buy nothing, come home and order a camera off the internet, to be picked up locally next week. Tsk!!

[monky Administrator 45 Months Cake sniffer outer in reply to Hidden]

Aup Sinfree

Erm, surreptitiously I do know what it means, but ermmm, just cant think of it at the moment I mean !! fancy coming out with a word like that on a Saturday !!

Hey Sinfree, luvs ya gal, I do, for sticking to your e-cig and not succumbing to the real thing eh You put your poor feet up now and watch the box eh

Sinfree, life is a mystery !! you knew it would be packed everywhere before you went, but you still went

[Hidden in reply to monky]

haha, and candid is totally the wrong word. Wasn't the word I wanted but I just thought candid camera (hidden) but candid actually means the complete opposite. Oh well, its been a long day. Anyway I was sneakin around inside a busy shopping centre trying to smoke my e-cig cos it was either that or just sit on the floor and rock like a mad person. And yes was asking for trouble to go there on the busiest shopping day in the year but I did it in my duty as a mum, my son needed some help with his christmas shopping and I foolishly stepped in. Should have gone to work like you........um well maybe not as I dare say that will be like a nut house come next week Oh my, this really is my most stressful time of the year, hate it, hate it.

[monky Administrator 45 Months Cake sniffer outer in reply to Hidden]

Hey hey Sinfree, calm down a bit eh

Talking about sitting on the floor and rocking gal, there's note wrong with that it dosnt mean your mad !! it just means you want a rest, cos your getting on a bit now gal

[Hidden in reply to monky]

[Hidden]

oh and tomorrow have got to wrestle with stupid tree, find somewhere to put it, decorate the thing and make some kind of attempt at tidying up the dining table that looks like some kind of stall out of a bizarre or something at the moment with all sorts of junk on it.

[monky Administrator 45 Months Cake sniffer outer in reply to Hidden]

Who put the junk their ???????

[Hidden in reply to monky]

Wasn't me.

[monky Administrator 45 Months Cake sniffer outer in reply to Hidden]

It never is

[Hidden in reply to monky]

haha, you sound like my hubby. "I suppose its me who put all that rubbish there". Erm well actually, since you mention it......yup. haha

[Hidden]

My God this X Factor is seriously painful tonight. Heard better stuff from buskers and the like on Manchesters streets today,

[monky Administrator 45 Months Cake sniffer outer in reply to Hidden]

Flippin turn over then gal !!

Erm I mean the TV

[Hidden in reply to monky]

S'not me that watches it, its hubby. Whats the alternative though? Casualty, its been on for hundreds of years on a Saturday night

[monky Administrator 45 Months Cake sniffer outer in reply to Hidden]

S'not, just flippin luv it gal

[mrssunnyside]

Evening everyone. Oh sinfree, just the thought of you packed like a sardine on that tram has made me reach for my e-cig

I haven't even started Xmas shopping yet, :-\

Next week eh !!!!

This time of year is such a challenge when it comes to not smoking,

I'm so glad to be retired, soooo many years in the retail trade, and then to knackered to enjoy it properly !!!!!

[monky Administrator 45 Months Cake sniffer outer in reply to mrssunnyside]

Hi ya Sunny its great to see you gal

Am same as you, aint done no xmas shopping yet !! I think I might give xmas a miss this year eh

[Hidden in reply to monky]

I say that every year, that would be bliss.

[monky Administrator 45 Months Cake sniffer outer in reply to Hidden]

Hey Sinfree, what would happen if we did give it a miss

[Hidden in reply to monky]

The shops would go bust maybe? I don't think the world would come to an end though. Mrs Sunnyside has the right idea, just eat lots of yummy things, a few drinky poos, a few party games with family and friends, who needs silly pressies.

[monky Administrator 45 Months Cake sniffer outer in reply to Hidden]

Tooooooo flippin rite gal

[Hidden in reply to mrssunnyside]

aww man, I feel for those poor people who work in shops this time of year I really do. Their heads must be absolutely buzzing by the end of a day in there. Then they have to start all over again with the madness come Boxing Day. I should think myself grateful I suppose that things aren't quite that bad where I work, well apart from the January madness anyway. The tram was absolutely jam packed and there are so many stops, in the end people just couldn't get on and had to wait for the next one.

[mrssunnyside]

Sounds a great idea to me, just make a nice dinner with the sprouts and roast potatoes,oh and a nice thick tasty gravy, and praps a mince pie or two !!! Well thatsthat's me sorted

[Hidden in reply to mrssunnyside]

a woman after my own heart, its the best bit of Christmas isn't it - eating Maybe give the sprouts a miss though

[mrssunnyside in reply to Hidden]

Well i'm going to chance the sprouts, I've got my large bottle of ' Gaviscon ' at the ready

[monky Administrator 45 Months Cake sniffer outer in reply to Hidden]

Oyyyy, there's note wrong with flippin sprouts gal

They are very good for a Ladies com, erm, compl, erm skin

[Hidden in reply to monky]

I eat them, only cos they're there tho, I don't actually think mmmmmm yummy sprouts. Christmas cabbages haha

[monky Administrator 45 Months Cake sniffer outer in reply to mrssunnyside]

Ermmmmm, do you like lumpy gravy

[Hidden in reply to monky]

Ahhhh Bisto with lumps - lovely

[mrssunnyside in reply to monky]

I don't make lumpy gravy :-\ but I do like it thick

[monky Administrator 45 Months Cake sniffer outer in reply to mrssunnyside]

Sauce

Custard

Jelly

Cement

Pastry

Cream

Paint

You name it, its flippin lumpy

Even the cat flippin complanes about her lumpy grub

[Hidden]

Christmas shopping ideas? Just looked on a website that's just been advertised on TV, notonthehighstreet.com

Looks like a nice site. Some gorgeous little knitted cosies for candles, jars, plantpots etc. Mind you the idea of a knitted candle cosie sounds like a bit of a health and safety issue but hey, we're all big boys and girls aren't we, just use your common sense I s'pose.

[monky Administrator 45 Months Cake sniffer outer in reply to Hidden]

Sinfree, you flippin crack me up gal, you dooooo

[Hidden in reply to monky]

haha, they are really cute and have buttons on some of them, I think maybe a battery operated artificial candle might be a safer bet, otherwise little jumper thing may end up like a little black cinder notonthehighstreet.com/henr...

[mrssunnyside in reply to Hidden]

Just been looking on that shopping site, looks good, will go back on it tomorrow, getting tired now, but it's a NO to the candle knits !! Yawn Yawn,

[monky Administrator 45 Months Cake sniffer outer]

I will have to say nite nite to you all now, cos, well, am creamcracked Am not getting any younger myself, and BOY do I need my beauty sleep !!

Sooooo, am going to get some zzzzzzzzzzzzz now Sinfree, enjoy your sprouts gal, just think of them as being little malteezers with the choc sucked off them eh A luvs ya ta bits gal, and dont you ever forget that

Sweet dreams everybody

[Hidden in reply to monky]

haha, I'll stick with the maltesers with the chocolate left on. Night, night Pete, sleep well and you have a lie-in in the morning - you deserve it

[Hidden]

They even made a peg to put my to-do lists on, especially made for me notonthehighstreet.com/ange...

I love this site, its kind of a UK version of Etsy.

[monky Administrator 45 Months Cake sniffer outer in reply to Hidden]

Nity nite grumpy

[EmJay Partner]

[tomc LONG TERM WINNER]

Aha.. My wife sticks a big piece of paper above my side of the bed on the roof with instructions for what needs doing.

I still don't see it...........so I tell her!!.

Tom.

[EmJay Partner in reply to tomc]

Maybe if she stuck it to the ceiling instead of the roof... You wouldn't stand a chance of not seeing it Let's not tell her

[tomc LONG TERM WINNER in reply to EmJay]

Shhhst I tell her as little as possible, That's how I have survived for 41 years.

That and selective hearing , Blindness.

Tom.

[Hidden in reply to tomc]

Tom there is a peg for your wife to leave notes for the stuff you need to do, it says 'not my problem'

[tomc LONG TERM WINNER in reply to Hidden]

Ah, If only life was that simple..................

Tom.
