When its hot you moan about wearing shorts...……...no pleasing you...…........LOL

I don't mind wearing shorts... just finding ones I like!

Afternoon all,
Thank you for the birthday messages for Lauryn, her friend still not well, Tony still poorly, so me & Lauryn had a girly morning, coffee & cake at Costa then a walk round a couple of clothes shops
It’s very windy now, quite stormy. Not that cold though
We’ve got a Harry Potterfilm on

I’m same, love the summer - I always say I’m not made for winter

Awwwww, shame about Lauryn's friend but pleased you managed to do something with her
Just rung mums friend...the lady whose husband died, I call her everyday mum is away, just to check she is o.k and see if she needs anything
Just attempting to cook quinoa...not a clue what I am doing!

Happy Birthday to Lauryn Mandy sounds like a nice day together.
Ha ha me neither griff. Not a clue how to cook quinoa. Let us know if turns out alright.
Nice thing to be doing for mums friend.

Busy busy day here moving furniture around to make sure when new sofa arrives and we get some nice tub chairs it will work looks like it will. Plus Gorden has done well making progress with the opening of the fireplace enough of a hole now for the guy who is coming Friday to give us clues about what we need.
We do however have cardboard blocking the hole there and a nice box that has Ollies and Max's ashes in and their toys and some nice tall candle holders on top of box. So it looks reasonable to live with for a short while.
Having a nice Spanish white wine while tea is cooking one Michael brought over from Spain. One of his favourites this year very nice it is to.

Lynn, just don't do what my dad did....fell in love with a wine, couldn't get it here or at a reasonable price and imported 4 flipping cases of the stuff...San Valentin he likes
The quinoa, I used twice the amount of water to the amount of quinoa, I booked it until the water was absorbed, took it off the heat and covered it and left it for a few minutes...it was o.k

Is it a bit like couscous griff. You can add all sorts to that.
I will look for it in the Spanish wine section of supermarkets may find it to be honest we mostly drink red but for a white it is very nice.

Hi all.
Hope you all had a good day. Milder here at 9°C. Bit windy - well we had cabbage soup.

We visited a disabled lady and she welcomes me and Max in. I think she doesn't get much company and welcomes the visit. Max has a quick investigate and then plops down beside her wheel chair and looks soppy. They became best friends.

We are moving and we will miss some of the lovely friends we have made here.

Yes Lynn, similar to cous cous but you have to rinse it before use that's a bit of a faff
