    Aloha everyone,

    A damp morning but my thoughts are with those people in Cumbria. :grphg:

    We've decided to treat ourselves and go for lunch to a restaurant 45 miles away. We'll need to get there early as they don't take bookings. Dress as you like, food orders taken at bar or written on the printed pad on the table, superb food at reasonable prices. The setting is lovely and they have a very nice herbaceous garden. :dbgrtmb:

    http://www.milsomhotels.com/milsoms/restaurants/

    We'll pop in to a factory outlet on the way home. :doh:

    Keep well and have a great day :biggrin:

    Aloha!

      161605-Good-Morning-Sunday.jpg Good morning all, and WOO hope you are full of your bouncibility today. I have to confess I have not yet walked Amber, but she has her escape onto the patio if she needs. Must get her out though as it is not the same as a good sniff around even if mum is shivering and cold waiting on her every sniff.

      Have a good day all Just over a week to the shortest day Yeh eh! Stay warm and dry and also safe and well. God bless. :wub2:

          Morning early people :)

          Grey and calm here, not much use for producing electric :doh:

          Off into town after brekkie, need a decent hacksaw blade, was too busy to bother shopping yesterday.

          Enjoy your lunch Shiney :)

          Have a good day everyone :)

              Ta for the cuppa Q.

              Shiney, I looked at the menu - looks tasty - now you've made me hungry :doh:

              It's supposed to be grey here as well for the next week or so, I guess we might as well have grey days since they are so short anyway.

              Back to cookie baking in a bit. Looking forward to decorating later as I have a few fun ideas I want to try. If they work out the way I would like, I will try to take a picture and share it. :)

              Think I'll pop in some bread dough too and get the house smelling nice to offset the gloom outside and maybe make a sandwich as listed in that menu. Perhaps I too will need to visit an outlet store - to get some stretchy trousers in case this pace of eating keeps up :doh:

                  My low voltage alarm went off, not enough power to stay down the van tonight, currently sat under a tree in the dark :catapult:

                  Now this could only happen to Loli, was on the phone for an hour with her and someone knocked at her door and handed her a stray chicken :chicken: :biggrin:

                  Black and white one so the licence fee will be cheaper :)

                      Aloha everyone,

                      We had a good lunch, and bought a few clothes for me at the Outlet. One new rugby top and two tracksuit bottoms for £42 (M & S). That should be all my new clothes for another year :heehee:

                      Keep well and have a great day :biggrin:

                      Aloha!

                        Good morning all, thankfully there is only one more week of getting darker mornings and afternoons before they start to draw out again. Shiney, I take it you enjoyed your lunch out.;
                        Zig how you cope with no electric beats me. Reminds me of my childhood, I was 10 when we first got electric on and 8 when we got running water rather than drawing from the well. Times change we are spoilt to a large degree now.

                        Fancy Loli being given a stray hen, bet she was well pleased and I hope it has settled in with her others. I wish she would come back to the forum.

                        Have a good day everyone, but as you now know I do not like Mondays! So stay warm and dry and above all stay safe and well.
                        God Bless. :wub2:

                            Good day everyone. We too are having clouds to go along with the shorter days. Hey, we might as well take all the gloom and hopefully when the days get longer we'll also have more sun.

                            Guess I'd best get to work here. I want to get finished early so I have time to decorate my men. Gingerbread men that is.
