Hay fever already! - that is bad luck.

Yes, that long hot summer, no rain, we went on holiday in September, and the blasted weather broke mid week!

1976 winter was grim, the catkins were in abundance and who can forget the summer that year

I was going to say the same thing Blinko as I was wondering what would cause it so early in the season.
Could it be hazel catkins as they seem very prolific this year?

Anniebach Tue 06-Mar-18 16:15:45

MissA x

Anniebach Tue 06-Mar-18 16:14:55

Yes OldMeg , and I forgot loo rolls , bird food, cat litter, bread and broken biscuits ?

Blinko Tue 06-Mar-18 14:17:27

Crafty, just a thought, could you possibly be allergic to your eyeliner?

OldMeg Tue 06-Mar-18 13:57:15

MissA sad

OldMeg Tue 06-Mar-18 13:56:34

Potting compost Annie? ???

My daughter had a milkman too. I had to track him down and pay off her bill, and he had a little cry when I told him she had died.
"She was a lovely kid" he said. smile

Flood alert here too, definitely sod's law.

Anniebach Tue 06-Mar-18 12:42:09

I have a milkman who delivers daily, milk in bottles, potatoes , butter, yogurt, fruit juices, eggs, cheese and potting compost ?

OldMeg Tue 06-Mar-18 12:15:16

Milk deliveries? You have a milk man/milk woman/ milk person who actually delivers to your door? ???

JaneD3 Tue 06-Mar-18 12:12:50

Poor Annie - I suspect you will not be amused by tales of long life milk at this moment!

Anniebach Tue 06-Mar-18 11:47:05

Cherry, crying over spilled milk, love it , have the giggles now, thank you x

I was going to post something similar about hay fever but you beat me to it, Craftycat

I normally start taking them by the end of February but didn't think there was any need last week!

I woke up yesterday with croaky voice and itchy eyes so have stocked up on Loratadine.

Glad I'm not the only one.

Cherry - us too. Well, we are not actually on flood alert but live in a valley where there are bits of the village that will flood before too long!! Luckily we live on one of the highest points in our village.

I only ever drink semi skimmed long life milk and as I buy at least 12 cartons each time, 6 cartons per pack, I have never run out.

Oopsadaisy12 Tue 06-Mar-18 11:12:03

Yes we do have a stock of long life milk, unused as we also had milk in the freezer!
In my Defense I was a Girl Guide, so I’m always prepared.

Cherrytree59 Tue 06-Mar-18 10:57:00

Oh dear Annie Crying over spilled milk is allowed.sad

I have recently read on GN that a number of GNers have had a stock of long life milk in their cupboards ready for emergencies such as the recent bad weather.

Anniebach Tue 06-Mar-18 10:32:24

Noooooo Cherry Sob

Cherrytree59 Tue 06-Mar-18 10:30:52

Snow gone yeah!
Sod law we are on flood alert.

Buggerations!! sad Annie hope you have more than one bottle.

Marmight Tue 06-Mar-18 10:29:56

Sod's law is going into the kitchen just now and finding the fridge door wide open. I couldn't sleep last night and made a cup of tea at 3am .... confused

Anniebach Tue 06-Mar-18 10:25:01

Sod's law is having milk delivery back to normal after five days and dropping the blasted bottle putting it in the fridge

Craftycat Tue 06-Mar-18 10:20:15

The snow has only just gone & guess what! My hay-fever has started.
I've had to re-apply my eyeliner 3 times this morning already due to streaming eyes. I'll leave it later to apply it tomorrow.
It's just not fair.
How's your day going?
