Another hard day for the Woos...i hope you find some comfort once you get Gypsy back home with you all...Thinking of you

Hope your 'man flu ' is abaiting Shiney and wishing you a better day too Moyra

Lovely pic Kaz
Waves to all our other friends on GC....

Good morning all..
sending a ray of sunshine to the Woos..passing the tissue box for those in sorrow and those in sneezes..liking the pic Kaz posted..disliking the grey skies and murky weather (again!!!!)...grumpy cause i don't get to try out the new hedgetrimmer..
The day will get better as it goes along
And to make myself feel better I remind myself that..............
Its that time of year again:
....and that's not so bad at all

 

Aloha Everyone,

Thinking of you WOO and Mrs WOO and little Penny who must be missing her pal, RIP Gypsy.

Sorry to hear your ribs are sore Loli and Shiney sound as though you could equally do with a quick rub down with an oily rag. I am feeling a lot better than I was just a bit chokey but otherwise surprisingly not bad now the sore throat has calmed down.

Lovely pictures Kaz and Luckyluna.

Have a lovely day everyone and be nice to yourselves if you are feeling down or under the weather.

Aloha!

 

Good afternoon everyone

Sorry to hear that a few friends on here have the dreaded lurgy/man flu and hope you all feel better soon although this miserable damp weather doesn't help matters

Luna,lovely photo of the pumpkin and squashes,have you grown these yourself this year?We have about six butternut squashes but they just won't grow as there isn't enough sun so Mr Kandy will have to make do with smaller ones this year

Caz,how is the car hunting going,have you managed to get one sorted out yet?

Anyway,I went for my annual Flu jab yesterday afternoon and it went well but my left arm is very sore today{which i expected}so didn't sleep well last night Mnaged to get to the lottie by eight this morning and picked two large punnets of Allgold and Autumn Bliss raspberries which will go in the freezer and on my breakfast ecerals and also picked a handful of runner beans and the rest have gone big and to seed so hope they ripen before the frosts come. The rats have finished off the last of the sweetcorn cobs so don't think we shall grow any next year as we got some off of them before we went to Wight so have some in the freezer .

Our mobile holiday accomadation is all cleaned and hoovered out ready to go back into storage and i have nearly finished off the last of the holiday irioning so will be back to normal soon.Phew...

Shiney,we have a large shoulder of lamb joint we got cheap from Mr T's the other month and i am defrosting it at the moment ready for Sundays dinner.Do I cook it like an ordinary leg of lamb as a roast or should i cook it differently?Any help would be most appreciated

Anyway,I am out this afternoon if it doesn't rain and then off babysitting early tonight so hopefully will get the last part of book two of Shades of Grey finished and book three started if i don't get to many interuptions from the nine year old i am looking after

 

Heck , No!!
I don't do veggies .......but I do pull my hat for those who take time to do so!

Came across those lovely pumkins while strolling around with camera in hand.
Here's a smashing one especially for Mr Kandy...making up for the Mini-Butterscotches Luna

 

Good morning Woo and everyone

Hope you are feeling a little bit better this morning Woo,and once Gypsy is back home the healing process can begin

Shiney,thanks for the info regarding the cooking of the lamb joint. I think i will start it off this morning as it is so big and then finish it off tomorrow for our sunday din dins.There is also a bag of sauce that needs to be poured on top so looking forward to tasting it all when it is done

Last evening before I went out babysitting I had a bit of a sore eye lid and thought it might be an eyelash that wasn't quiet right.Anyway,went to bed last night and have woken up this morning with a swollen top lid and half my eye is closed so going to have to ring up one of those emergency keydoc numbers me thinks to see{scuse pun} if i can get it looked at as i am not sure if my tear duct is blocked again and i might need some antibiotics Just what i can do without when i have so much to do at the lottie and in the garden now that the rain has stopped

Hope everyone else is feeling much better today.I think my body is coming out in sympathy with you all

Have a great day everyone in all that you do

 

be blessed in all you do and try to look after your selves,
up to the plot for me
oh for those that havent seen the pics on the other thread this is me showing off the size of my boot on my new car

 

Good Morning all
well congrats,Kaz...that huge boot on your new baby cries out for a big time shopping tour . Very good for carpooling kids to school, also..as you can store them upright, the entire 1st and 2nd grade of a small town can travel at once...
This one's for Gypsy and the Woos:
And this for my retired Neighbor who a l w a y s throws on the loudest gardening tools on saturday morning at 8 o'clock sharp a l w a y s ! Todays its the hedgetrimmer



To all of you:
have a great weekend..stay safe and healthy and let's all be thankful for the little and big things that make our life so much more than bare existence
Luna

 

Wow Caz,that is sure some big boot. I could do with one that big as i keep seeing large piles of poo around these parts in the fields and some of the farmers burn the piles but as my boot is smallish i can get quiet a bit in it but not as much as with the size of your boot Can you point me in the direction of the thread please so i can see your new vehicleEnjoy your time up the plot Kaz

Morning Shiney,I havn't been awake long after falling asleep on the settee and so have just seen your post

I didn't realise about the meat not being cooked twice and i don't like thinking about the blood,muscles,sinews,etc as I am not likely to eat it if i do The weight is 1.772.kg{not sure what that is in English}and the sauce is redcurrant with a pepper sprinkle on top of the meat, and the meat has been scored with a knife and what looks like rosemary leaves pushed into the joint so any advice would be good as i have never cooked a piece that big

I am hoping and praying that i havn't picked up some sort of a bug as one of tha cts came back from the cattery with an upset tummy,and everyone i have spoken to this week,adult and child have had,colds,flu,etc and i don't want the same problem with my eyes as i had a few years ago where i ended up in hospital on strong antibiotics and new tear ducts having to be made in each eye I still don't know whether to leave it until Monday and go and see my own Dr or ring up one of those emergency ones,as i do so hate having to go to these places Hope you are coping well with your man flu and please say Hi to Mrs Shiney for me
