JINGL739, ahoy!

Anangram Yay! I never did like the idea of 'cold turkey' [whatever that is] so I guess we'll just have to live with our little weaknesses.

Off to watch Alexander Armstrong and that nice Richard Osman. This is where I say a fond farewell until tomorrow's fix.

I know! I think I'll just succumb gracefully....

Anagram ...very true! Until I discovered GN, I found ironing very theraputic. Such tedious tasks have been down-rated. I believe that I'm a GN "junkie"...heck!

Well done, soop! It's great when it works out well, isn't it?
You have reminded me, though, of that pile of clothes which need me to get the sewing machine out - it's a bit like ironing, fine when everything's set up, it's the getting round to it that's difficult!

Took forever to re-fashion the top [purchased on eBay for a song] lots of mess: dropped pins, tangled thread, bad temper [mine] but end result is pleasing.

I'm off to shorten a top and it promises to be tricky. The end result could be a perfect fit...or, a heap of off-cuts on the floor that would have been better left as part of the garment. She who dares...and all that codswallop!

Yes, I meant back home! This is getting weird....!

Greatnan is in England.

No, soop - I meant Greatnan's not back yet!

Are you referring to that jings? If so...WHERE ARE YOU? That's me being uncharacteristically loud and unladylike!

She's not back yet!

What have you been taking?

Welcome back Greatnan looking forward to the next crop of funnies

Glad you had a good journey, gn. Enjoy your holiday with your sister.

Hi Greatnan I hope you've brought some sunny weather with you - it's a bit overcast again here in Manchester. Have a fabulous time!

Ha, you don't get rid of me that easily! I had a good trip over and my scalded chest is virtually healed, so I am having a lovely time with my sister.
I am in her local library but I may not have time to get in again before we fly to France (well, Geneva) next Monday.
Love to all my friends - and even people who don't realise they are my friends! I am feeling very mellow.

For a moment, I came over all woozy.

No! Greatnan's just going to Manchester for a week and might not be able to get online! Don't panic, soop!

Anagram Have they resigned?

It's going to be very quiet on here without Greatnan and jingl

Is that jingl5001aprrox Still down the boozer...or what?

The butcher I buy from in our local market puts marrow bones in a tray for people to help themselves. I suspect a lot of people take them for their dogs. I use them for stock. Either way, how good is that?

jingl5001aprrox Thank goodness we can all stop YELLING for you to come back from the boozer. I've wasted too much precious time on a pub-crawl - looking for you. You're a minx and the forum needs your likes. So, for crying out loud...welcome back... slurp! hic! totters off to do something useful [or not]

I love marrow too but it is getting harder and harder to find it.

I mean how did you manage to stick with one name?

guiness book of records for deregistering and reregistering on GN though!
