Now i haven't had any of these for years.

Has anyone else had any lately.

Good evening OH,

No carpet burns here, only splinters due to wooden floors

Dear Donedigging, that sounds rather painful.

Never managed to paint that fast!
Must be like me, Spring clean and decorate in the Autumn because the Spring is too busy. Tiled, changed the plumbing and decorated in the toilet; painted the hall and stairs; added some more tiles and decorated the kitchen; projects so far - contemplating bathroom next!

Enjoyed Guardian crossword clue from this weekend - good old Araucaria.

"Royal couple flirting (9)"

PHILANDER

oh yes, carpet burns...I remember the days....

Dear Pongeroon, let me guess what days they would have been,

Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays, i left Sundays out, just incase you are a good religious girl.

And newly wed ?

My dear OH, how well you know me

I am very devout and demure as anyone who knows me can tell you.

And our first wedding anniversary coming up in march, Shallot man.

I was just wondering when Seedling might put a reply on the forum again, it seems such a long time since we have had the pleasure of her wisdom.

Has anyone bought their Mistletoe yet.

I'm sure i saw a lorry load going up to Liverpool.

no we are all waiting to get it in woolies sale, or tesco's 50 percent off christmas stuff

Seedling's been really busy OH, mainly having dinner with me Our next dinner date is on Saturday so if she's not posted anything by then I'll give her a nudge in your direction.

Dear Chantal,thankyou for your cooperation in this matter.

Hope you have a pleasant meal on Saturday.

Old Codger my dear fellow, whats happened to the Christmas lights this year
