@Bettercallsaul1 I am surprisingly ok, I didn't realise I posted. Have taken younger 2 children to the park and am now ready to clean my house. DP is in bed still and seems to be in a sad state which is unusual for himGrin

Sounds to me as if you are young, Idroppedthescrewinthetuna, with a naturally quick recovery system! Envy (envy) Oh, gone are the days! Grin

What excuse can I use not to go into work tomorrow?

@Bettercallsaul1 I am 35, 3 kids. I wouldn't say I am young. Not sure how I recovered being honest. Dp is preparing dinner for later I can hear him groaning 😂

Idroppedthescrewinthetuna · 27/06/2021 13:45

Out of interest, what area has just been placed in lockdown?

Bettercallsaul1 · 27/06/2021 13:46

Yes, but that’s a good thing these days. (Why wasn’t it in my youth? Confused )

What use can I find for a burnt pavlova? The meringue is actually black.

Idroppedthescrewinthetuna You are 35! You are in your first youth, as far as I’m concerned. Grin

Wear it as a hat to the next wedding you go to

Who is getting married?

bearlyactive · 27/06/2021 15:09

Mary Berry and her husband. They're renewing their vows.

Yes, with lashings of squirty cream and cabbage.

bearlyactive · 27/06/2021 19:07
