Looks like you're all having a lie-in this morning then. After my computer gremlins of the last couple of days it seems to be working again today - don't know what that was all about!
Down south today we have a nasty, grey, wet, miserable day - just right for hibernating. Have a good day everyone and see you later.

I'd manage to get on, just catch up with the posts then as I started typing the computer cut out on me - gave up in the end. Seems to be behaving itself today so far though.
We had a fabulous sunny and warm day yesterday and had a nice stroll along the prom. I don't think the weather will come in like they forecast (unless you live where Sue does maybe ), they're just scare-mongering as usual. If it does come then I'm thinking (purely selfishly, of course ) then it can start after 9 a.m. on Monday morning cos by that time I should be well on my way. I did get caught out 3 years ago when it started snowing as I arrived in Gatwick and all flights were cancelled.

Yes I've got a small fan heater, so I can have a warm now and again but i aint got a cumfy chair like that one
Hey can you remember when we were talking about sweet peas well i've found those Sugar & Spice so I will be ordering some of them in plug plant form, that will save me having to chit the seeds
Nice to see we have a couple of new people on the site today.
Great pic. Andi and at least those polar bears have got nice warm coats on with all that snow around brrr. I hope you are wearing a nice warm coat for your walk in the park Mad. I am doing my housework today so that's exercise but I'm going to go for a walk later as well.
Sorry to hear you had another bad night Sue but good that you are ready for anything now you need to be with all the shanannigans going on here
I know of men who have a shed which is where they escape to to get away from her indoors, is that what your garage is for Pete? to get a bit of you time. Don't start getting all technical Pete 'chit the seeds' I don't know what you are talking about
Hopefully this post will go.
I'm off to do some more cleaning now, can't wait, just love cleaning
Hello everyone , Thought I would have a peep on site and see whats happening.

Hi Jillygirl
How you doing gal ?? I hope you doc sorted you out with some more pain killers
Hey have you got a corner in your garden that you can plant some sweet peas, so in an evening you can go and have a sniff ( without hubby
It's great to hear from you, I think it makes everyone smile when you come and have a chat. I hope you are feeling a little better these days, wishing you a full and speedy recovery.
I can't say that I have ever come into contact with sweet peas so I don't know what they smell like but I think I recognise them from your picture.
Rite Ladies, - chitting seeds and I did say chitting
Sweet pea seeds are very hard !! and to have the best flowers you have to sow the seed in October or February, to obtain the strongest and healthiest plants at this time of Year the compost is cold and damp, so some of the seeds just rot
So what we do is put the seeds in dishes of water enclosing the seeds in kitchen roll or similar, then put these in a dark and warm room, as in your airing cupboard, and you check them every day to see if they need more water and if you can see any shoots appearing when the shoots appear, then you pot them up into compost, this way they are already growing when you plant them then keep them on a window sill until its warm enough to plant them outside
I tell you now that you will see the difference you will have flowers to cut for the house from late May until October- November
Its worth paying a bit extra for the named, erm scented varieties
I always thought that chitting meant nicking them first, especially with sweet peas!

Andi, yes you can nick them first before sowing them, but as i've said they are very hard seeds, so is difficult to do that it's a lot easier to soak them
monkyAdministratorCake sniffer outer• in reply toandi22
Potatoes- we chit similar as in, well I used to put them in egg trays, best side up in the airing cupboard until they erm sprouted, then they would be ready to plant out in the garden, especially the early varieties
I thought you meant nicking as in stealing them from other people's gardens then Andi It would save going to all the trouble of chitting them and waiting for the roots to grow.
Hiya Jilly, nice to see you about. Hope you're not too bored and that your antibiotics are now kicking in. Perhaps we could send in some of our spears to help out too.
Pete, I was wondering how you got on at your quit meeting this morning (if you went) and if you've seen the doc yet about trying champix. Not seen any reports back but you were talking about it before.
monkyAdministratorCake sniffer outer• in reply toandi22
I went to the Chemist this Morning, but my advisor is off work with a cold but as I told Mad, I managed to see another Lady about it, and she kindly looked through all the prescriptions, but could not find one for me so the Lady said that she would phone me as soon as it comes in
So if they get my prescription early on in the week I will have time off work to get it cos i'm ready to quit now, am cheesed off with smoking
I'm getting a bit annoyed now, but I know there doing there best, just cant wait thats all, cos when i get the Champix, I've got to smoke for 7 - 10 days
That's the problem with having to wait to see advisors and sorting things out. You are ready to give up now but then it takes weeks to get to see someone and I know one time, by the time I got to see someone I had changed my mind
Haha, have loved reading all the comments on here, you obviously all get on really well together. If Pete gets his Champix next week and I manage to get some too on Tuesday we should be able to compare notes.
Hiya Sin, that would be really cool - you and Pete could be quit buddies. I was one of those once - he's had quite a few of those now though - one of them even came out in sympathy with him so she could quit along with him for her second time!
Think I'd better scoot off ............ zzzzzooooooooooooommmmmmmmmmmmmmm!!!!!
Yes that would be good. Sorry I disappeared, I got sidetracked on another post and then ended up on Google, then totally depressed myself reading medical stuff - tsk. My other addiction is the internet :-0

I also need lessons from Pete on smiley faces, half the ones I know don't seem to work on here.
Sinfree, dont believe a word that Andi20 flippin 2 says, cos she's got at least 5 brain cells and is way way above my expectations of a Woman, cos am normal
Rite am off to find a hiding place Whooooooooooooosh
Put your specs on - she also has an inhalator (like you do ) and needs some advice on how to use it best so as you are now a bit of an expert on it I said I would get you to help her out with it - okay? doh!
Oy JC less of the slow Andi was right she knows me well I've been watching Casualty. Haven't a clue were our Boozie Suzie has got to but she didn't sleep well again so maybe she is having a snooze. Yes did you save us some bread and don't say you don't share that either because it's bread not cake
I'm sure if we were sneaking cakes, your cake radar would have picked it up, it's unbelievable the way you can smell a cake a mile off
That all got a bit confusing them about the inhalator Andi you are a woman above Peetie's expectations as you have 5 brains cells Is that another insult saying that most women have less than 5 brains cells hmmm, spears at the ready me thinks D
Hello. I thought I only had one or two of them brain cels so don't know where he got five from - perhaps he nicked them! (Think he's hammering those tinnies tonite tho!
Yes I thought you must be growing more because I'm sure Peetie has said that you only had 2 in the past. He is unusually quiet and I don't like it when he's quiet, means he's up to no good. If he is hammering the tinnies he might be snoring in the chair soon
Yes you woke him up Then he didn't know where he was or what he was talking about.... nothing new there then Good job he is asleep means I don't need to hide
Yay to Day 2. Day 1 is nearly over, and not been toooo bad. Struggling with everyone's names at the mo so can't remember where you are up to with your stopping John but have a good day tomorrow.
Night night John, sleep well and speak to you tomorrow. I am not surprised there is nothing sweet in your fridge, can't imagine anything sweet lasting long in your house. You could just be bluffing though
Why me having to play with him all night if he wakes up?? Why can't you play with him? You're the one with 5 brain cells

Dont worry Kaz, am off to bed now,
Erm Andi, I dont know where you got Sinfree's E'Cig from, but have looked and I cant find it but if i've got things mixed up, then I do appoligise to you Andi, am sorry gal
Rite am off up the wooden hill now, so I will say nite nite to you all, and I luvs ya all too sweet dreams and have a nice kip xxxxxx
Night night Peetie, sleep well you deserve it. I think Andi meant inhalator not e-cig it's late so it's easy to get muxed ip I am worse than that first thing in the morning, well when I say first thing I mean up to around 11am
Night night Andi, I hope you can sleep, speak to you tomorrow, if you can't sleep then you can stay up and play with Peetie Weetie when he wakes up. xxx
