Not us needing the generator , the neighbours poor things 😬

MrsMad DD2 loves pens and stationery too. I bought her a personalised notebook from Papier as one of her gifts. It was when they were ending their Disney collaboration so it was a very good price but they do have 15% off currently.

Mrs you really shouldn't watch QVC more - I looked yesterday as it was "KitchenAid TSV" - yeah, a tiny chopper/food processor that even the woman demonstrating it managed to get wrong 🤦‍♀️I'll leave that thanks.
70 would you agree they aren't a patch on 15yrs ago. Overpriced and too many crap brands that no one else sells and the P&P is extortionate

We have a tiny chopped (in German it translates as 'mini hack machine'!). It's a Kenwood. We use it loads when we make curry or chilli jam.

I don't and never have had a vibrating bed more's the pity!.

I'm not a huge fan of Cliff. Saviour's Day is on my iPod courtesy of Now...Christmas. It came on at the allotment the other day. My hands were full of heavy stuff so I had to suffer it, sadly.

Hark the Herald or Silent Night are my favourite Carols.

OMG Fluffy l would have gone demented like th edementers in HP if l had to listen to that creep he makes me cringe Envy
Mrsmadevans · 14/08/2020 16:31

You're very trad in your fave carols Fluffy not a criticism just an observation. Dh is watching Antiques road trip sleeping...... snoring on the sofa , his head is going to smash into the wall behind him in a min shall l tell him ?

whydoesitalwayshappentome · 14/08/2020 16:32

Boots maybe a cheeky spray hair dye on the little gits would make the hairs more bearable.

Mrsmadevans · 14/08/2020 16:32

I realise l have never watched an episode of the new Crackerjackwith Mark & Sam off the childrens bake off , l am wondering now if they have ever shown it because of Covid .

CrazyBaubles · 14/08/2020 16:35

boots I have a particular soft spot for Dont Let The Bells End Xmas Grin - just the right mix of upbeat, camp, fun and catchy.

Woolly I'm not a Cliff fan but Mistletoe and Wine takes me right back to being a kid and putting out the mince pie etc for Santa.

Wreck 🤑 That is so easily done in Homesense

70 I am also Shock at the subject matter on this chat!

MrsMad I am concerned you are protesting too much about the lack vibrations 😂

I am currently at MILs in her sleepy Yorkshire village. We are melting, it's so hot we've put off a dog walk until this evening and are thanking her DH for going against her and buying an air conditioning unit a few years ago!

Home tomorrow - aside from the mountain of washing, I'm really looking forward to getting into my own bed.

Going to vote for carols now - at least one for Once in royal David's City and after that I'll have to have a look....

Mrsmadevans · 14/08/2020 16:37

My Mum was furious yesterday , the hairdresser didn't turn up to do her hair as arranged. 10.45 on Thursday 13th , Mum was adament. Very cross with Wendy , not going to give her a tip next time blah blah.
I phoned Wendy up this morning , 'l put the appt on their calendar'
Appt today 12.30 on the calendar , Mum was gobsmacked she got it wrong . Of course it was poor old Bob's fault Grin

Tell me all , l am truly curious, do any of you cry at music or carols that you listen to ? I went to a memorial for our local GP once , l cried and cried, it was so moving.

Mrsmadevans · 14/08/2020 16:41

OR AS I SUSPECT , IS IT JUST ME ?

Mrsmadevans · 14/08/2020 16:45
