Sister did come to work with me , good because she made area manager wind his neck in especially when she asked if the incident had been reported to Health and Safety (looks like it wasn't). Any way they got told to wait till after I have seen consultant. Went back to my nieces dry cleaning business ( well wash and dry and iron) to use bathroom and had a cuppa . not seen niece for ages and got a big hug. Left them some of my Christmas cake, they said it wont last long!!! Have a visitor tomorrow so its cooking head on, done some prep already

OMG, someone else coming as well as me?
I was coming in jeans boots and leather jacket as well, will I need posh frock and heels? Seriously though, I am looking forward to it immensely, if not for the company (which is top notch) then the food (or is it the other way round !!). At this rate it will be a twice yearly visit which is really cool

Maybe I will get to see 'the van'..... OOOOOooo

My visitor was fed and watered, time went to quickly and she had to get back.

Katie Jade · December 29, 2018, 01:06:34 PM

Well, I understand that your visitor was well fed with lots of lovely nosh, talked for ages and said fond farewells after an enjoyable afternoon, Im sure she will post some pics when she can get them off her mobile.

Took some pain killers to the BFF yesterday, just rushed out no make up. She said my face has changed again (probably just fat from over indulging ) !! Called in on way past today to see how "organised " she is for her trip, managed to print off boarding passes she emailed to me when I got back. Bag of gifts from her (all stuff she had around) scarf, cushion, lavender toiletries , a " Gucci " handbag ,bottle of wine and 2 small Chinese style vases . Bless her . Taking her to the airport tomorrow , its a late flight but should be back late lunch time as just dropping her off. Slow cooker turkey stew tonight so apart from the 2 frozen and 1 in fridge Jalfrezis that's all the turkey meat gone and it was only a crown. Davina totally turkeyed out .XXXXXX

BFF duly dropped off at airport for the start of her Aussie trip , she said its the first time she has been organised thanks to me and said she wishes I could have gone with her. She is not the only one!!! So a quiet night in then and just to wish everyone that reads my ramblings a VERY HAPPY NEW YEAR may all your wishes come true.XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

JudiBlueEyes · December 31, 2018, 01:54:12 PM

So you'll be on your own for a while she's away but you'll have fun at the pubs with all your friends! That was a nice complement that you could help her get organized. Thank you so much for being here and sharing a piece of your life!
Cheers, Judi

Have been invited over to mums for lunch ,just left overs she said cooked in a mushroom pasta sauce. Fine by me!! Yesterday my BFF said when her niece (I think) and her 2 small daughters came to visit just before I left (I was in working clothes) that 1 of the girls said was that lady a man. Her mum said no she was just born in the wrong body, now that's a nice thing to say and also will make the daughter understand. Got a FB request from a cousin that I have not seen for a few years, he said I am still his cousin no matter what. Any way back to every day life, just had to clean fridge as spotted mould in drain vent ! good start to a new year!!!!

Davina,

Happy new year to you and yours!

I hope you have a wonderful year!

Your posts are interesting. When you talk about food, often I learn about all kinds of meals that I never heard of. I never knew there could be so many different types of curries too.

Well if the search was correct the BFF will be touching down now. Lunch was good with mum, she is coming to hospital with me next week as she has a ridiculous amount of premature baby coats and hats she has knitted and wants to hand them in to the ward. Did I say she is a serial knitter!!!!

davina61 · January 01, 2019, 02:41:16 PM

Chrissy Happy new year to you as well, I have only scratched the surface of curry recipes . I have 5 (or 6?) recipe books and even ones with the same name have total different ingredients. More dahls this year and less meat maybe as the diet starts soon .

Davina,

I hope that you will enjoy many curries this year! Maybe you will find after preparing a new one, that you found another favorite one.

Went shopping with mum and auntie , had a "small" lunch of fish cake ,chips and mushy peas . Went to Evesham so a fair bit of walking. Got 2 skirts and a top in sales with my present money and a top in charity shop. Found some top hat shape stainless steel discs in 2nd hand shop, will make stands/bases for jewellery stands. Small bowl of turkey stew for tea (OK the diet is on) Watching a diet cooking program now-------

That is the brand new scarf holder! It ensures your scarf never gets twisted in knots. Keeps everything smooth!
