I've always had money for Christmas from my parents, since I was about 10. It's never bothered me or ruined the fun!

Fanny go lightly .They are horrible 💐 you have my sympathies, empathy and whatever other emotional response l can give you . Awful things!!!

I think we might make more soup today as we still have 7 pumpkins lurking in the dining room and we only need two for carving. I also need to pot on 40 Lavender plugs I got for the allotments. I'll save that job for when it's stopped raining later!

I left the bread maker to do its thing overnight and woke to the lovely smell of bread. Yummy!

We have a roast every Sunday. We have an enormous parsnip from the allotment to go with it today!

I love parsnips can't eat them though too carby Sad

Mrsmadevans · 06/10/2019 08:18

Fluffy your Ds head is obviously very normal and it IS an enormously girthy Parsnip , so huge it deserves a Capital P ! 🤪😂😂😂

thinking that will take some peeling 🤣🤣🤣

Mrsmadevans · 06/10/2019 08:22

Aw Wreck are they too Carby, what a shitter! Bloody hell that is a pita. Your Ds sounds like he has a healthy young mans appetite bless him 🤗
I had better shift and sort Mum out . Have so enjoyed posting here with you all .l have a smile as wide as that massively girthed Parsnip with a capital P 😂😂

NoWordForFluffy · 06/10/2019 08:26

DD's head was enormous. And tilted the wrong way, meaning she got properly trapped inside me!

I didn't really consider how carby parsnips are. What a bugger.
