Good morning everyone,
Bank holiday Monday, anyone brave enough to go out today and face the traffic.?
I think we are just going for a walk. weather permitting and Nora battys. 
What ever your plans are have a lovely day and stay focused and positive and smokefree.
Having my muselei in a mo. so catch up soon.
Good morning Jilly and everyone else.
I'm awake and on here so I must be alive! 
:
No, I don't do Bank Holiday traffic if I can help it. Mind you, the traffic's going to be pretty bad here all week cos we've got the Air Festival from Thurday til Sunday. It's brilliant and it's free. The only downside is traffic and parking. Best way to go is by bike but with no lights it makes evening forays a bit trickier. Went to the fireworks on a bus once - great I thought - but terrible trying to get a bus back after.
See you later.
Morning andi, glad your awake and alive. Know what you mean about buses and fireworks. We do the same thing at blackpool the world championship firework displays are on this year , brilliant displays. horrid bus journey back home to holiday flat.
Catch you later on.
Well I was in the middle of writing back to Pete last night when my computer did it's dying thing. 
When I got back on later you'd both gone to bed (must admit my eyes had shut in front of the tv.)
He thought I was a teacher cos I mentioned students. The students I have are foreign students who come here to learn English at the language schools. I'm having a summer off this year as am enjoying the freedom of not having to dash back to feed students (or cats) or do cleaning or anything else I don't want to do (how very selfish!!!). 
Also I can go away at the drop of a hat if I feel so inclined (even though I haven't til now. 
)
Thats bnot selfish thats brilliant. Bet thats interesting with students and satisfying . Sure Pete will have something to say if he ever shows his head. 
WAKEY WAKEY PETE !
Thought you were trying to catch me. 2 Hours and still not caught up. Lazeeeeeeeeeee!!
Off out now with daughter so you will just have to be patient now. Andi will sort you out.
Behave and enjoy your day.
see you later.
Aup Jillygirl & Andi, i'm glad your both alive !!
Just finished cooking dins, huh flippin raining now so it looks like the paints coming out again, Jillygirl dont you stand still for long gal, cus am ready to paint anythink that dosnt move
Andi how come your computer always crashes when your replying to me hmmmm you trying to tell me something gal Just wondered does your sister know that you've quit smoking ?? cus if she doesnt she will get a big suprize wont she
Oh hello, you woke up finally did you?
Computer crashing - think it's what you said before - TalkTalk and being on for quite a while. Hasn't happened so much lately though.
Carrots! Shouldn't that be on the caff blog? I don't like cooked carrots and eat a raw one most days with my lunch. Have tried those ponsy chardonnay (or something like that) carrots but flavours a bit naff. Can't seem to beat ordinary ones.
Yes i'm awake and alive
I just put the carrot link on to show you how the link comes out, after you've copied, and pasted it
Just wondered if you have tried roasting carrots, they are lovely and sweet, a different taste altogether from boiled carrots, and believe it or not, roasting them, breaks the hard walls down of the carrot so they release even more of there nutrition.

Andi to copy a link --
Right click on the web address
drop down menu - click copy link

drop down menu - click paste
it will look funny, but when you post it, it will turn out like the link above
Good luck
Ta for this, will try it one day. Computer died on me again earlier.
Think I have tried them roasted before and found them quite nice.
Have been invited out for roast beef dins tonight - have ordered yorkies to go with it! Oh no! I've got a barbie tomorrow as well, never mind eating in restaurants the rest of the week!! How on earth am I gonna loose weight at this rate? It's such a hard life enjoying yourself!
Hi Pete , I`m back . Just bought a pair of trainers at a bargain price. Got to have strong athletic types for mi nora battys, cheapies from the supermarkets wont do, or the podiatrist shouts at me.
Daughter just bought one of those pop up tents £15. with a sleeping bag. I asked what she bought it for. Turns out got it for 7yr old Jessica ( my grandaughter) for xmas. She loves making dens out of sheets etc , so she will love a tent. Like my daughter says at that price well worth it.
Anyway what colour paint is it? I`m fussy you know.

Hey Jillygirl, i aint finished with you yet gal, so your in the bath then, hmmmmm, do i pull the plug out or do i burst all the bubbles
I think bursting bubbles will be more exercising for me, dont you
Evening all (both), glad to see you've been behaving yourselves. Just got in - roast beef etc. Unfortunately the spuds and yorkies were frozen ones due to time constraints but beggars can't be choosers!! Gravy was home-made and...... it was LUMPY!! 
Ya cant beet lumpy gravy, did you eat any carrots
Oh dear, have just been to the caff and seen that he's chasing you again - I think I was speaking too soon just now.
This is what these (old men ) do , they just get bored. Have to get Sues dobermann
to keep guard again.
Ha got him sorted,
And hey less of the old men please
Yeah but there s a little jack russell hiding in the cafe, and boy do they give a nip to strangers.
I guess they've got to get their exercise somewhere - chasing women with droopy stockings or being chased by jack russells - not sure which would use up more calories!
Speaking of scarpering, I'm going to now cos my eyes don't want to stay open any longer.
Nite nite everybody and sleep well.
Jillygirl, good nite gal, thanks for cheering me up to night.
Luv ya to bitts gal, i doooooo, i havnt got a hells chance when you go on your holls gal.
