Evening all

LOL'ing at the euphemism invasion

Just wanted to say we had a FABULOUS weekend with TheFamousFive, with Fanny being the absolute hostess with the mostess. Although i fear DH didn't endear himself too much with his comment that he was sleeping with more sheep poo than he was used to

We had a BBQ on Fri, lovely fry up & beach on Sat (where in my care FannyGirl managed to fall and scrape her leg (oops ) followed by offroad driving, fishy BBQ (divine) with Spitfire drive past. Then horseriding visit, castle and pub today. / Officially shattered as most of the eating was accompanied by a few bottles glasses of wine . I truly don't know how Fanny does it all. She is just amazing and her garden is going to be wonderful. Little Tom is quite cute too

{{Big hugs to Bitter, Mitts, Mouse, Yank and anyone else having a crappola time & hope things pick up for you all }}

TrillianAstra · 04/07/2010 20:21

Visiting the FamousFive sounds lovely, glad you both had a good time

NormaSknockers · 04/07/2010 20:47

This unique and colorful custom is referred to as

fondling the groovy chutney

Bella at him grabbing your iPhone like that, how rude!

Sounds like a really lovely weekend Crispy/Fanny

Vinny - just saw that you now have a DIL to be, how did it go? Did she cry?

Gigantaur · 04/07/2010 20:56

i am very jealous, fanny's house sounds amazing. do thomas cook do any school break deals there?

bellavita · 04/07/2010 21:07

Evening

Glad you had a fab time Crispy

Sorry you are illing Fluffs

DH has been on a hunt to track down some photos pre DS's. Anyhooo he found them and in the pack I found some photo booth ones of my friends and I making silly faces and others of different friends - I was probably around 14 at the time (bearing in mind I am 45 in August, they were taken a long long time ago) It has brought back so many lovely memories. I am meeting one of said friends for lunch next week, so I will be taking the pics with me.

CrispyTheCrisp · 04/07/2010 21:08

I think everyone should have a grant to go and visit Fanny

wastingaway · 04/07/2010 21:20

Bella, did you have a perm? Put them on Facebook.

I think Fanny will be booked solid with Shiners soon.

Trills, I know there isn't much evidence on aspartame, but the alleged impact on blood sugar levels is quite interesting.
Along with all the other ishoos that may have impacted my lardiness, Mum started buying me sugar-free pop, Diet Pepsi etc. when I was around ten, and I really started to bang the weight on then, with the starts of binge-eating.

Also, the introduction of aspartame in the early 80s seems to coincide with the massive rise in obesity, which has my conspiracy anttenae twitching.

All the acids in fizzy pop are definitely bad for the teeth though, so it's worth cutting down anyway.

NormaSknockers · 04/07/2010 21:21

Aww that's lovely Bella, so nice when you stumble across something that brings back happy memories

NormaSknockers · 04/07/2010 21:22
bellavita · 04/07/2010 21:26

Wasting, there are some with a perm - but I was a bit older around 17/18/19. Ok will get MrB to scan them in - he says btw before you ask - he did not have a mullet!!!! (MrB is in the pics too).

CrispyTheCrisp · 04/07/2010 21:30

Ooh, lovely to find pics Bella. Makes me a bit sad about digital cameras actually as we have not kept up with printing photo's

All this talk of aspartame has made me go and get a diet coke

Mouseface · 04/07/2010 21:33

Evening, tis me, Mouseface.

missed you!!

DeFluffs - sorry you're still ill. Get thee to bed woman!

Hells - and MrH sorry you have hangovers.

Bitter - xx

Bella - I too am a victim of the perm. No evidence though, thank fuck goodness.

Wasting - I used to have a serious addiction to diet coke. I used to get withdrawel if I didn't have around 7 cans a day and the asp has since been proven to be the necter of satan.......

Well, DS is in bed, very nearly asleep but kicking his cot, MrMouse is finally doing the ironing that has been piling up for 6 weeks and DD is chilling!!

I'm enjoying a glass of White Zinfandel and I'm about to demolish a flake!!

Yum!!

Norma - have you had a great birthday??

Just shut up with the fizzy pop!
A bottle of Pepsi Max caught my eye across the aisles in the Range earlier, it was soooo hard to drag myself away.

Bella, awesome. I had a very poor version of Carter USMs extremely long fringe for a short while. Thankfully there are no photos. No mullets though.

bellavita · 04/07/2010 21:36

Photos on fb >

Mmm Flake

Oh yes Hells, hope your hangover goes by tomorrow.

FiveGoMadInDorset · 04/07/2010 21:38

Oh Bella, they are good I ahd a perm a few times nothing quite like that though.

wastingaway · 04/07/2010 21:41
Grin
bellavita · 04/07/2010 21:41

I look like a bleedin' poodle Fanny

FiveGoMadInDorset · 04/07/2010 21:42

I didn't want to say that, I am far to polite

Right I am off to bed. Night all.

Mouseface · 04/07/2010 21:46

Night Fanny xx

NormaSknockers · 04/07/2010 21:46

Nice hair Bella

Mouse at your flake! I've had a really, really lovely birthday (despite some tummy trouble) quite possibly one of the better ones MrNorma really put some thought & effort in this year (something he hasn't really done recently due to work stress etc) so it really meant a lot to me

Night Fanny!

CrispyTheCrisp · 04/07/2010 21:47

LOL, mine was as bad, although i am not sure if i can locate pics. I may try tomorrow.

Night Fanny, off to bed here too soon to recover

bellavita · 04/07/2010 21:51

Night Fanny.

Glad to hear your birthday was a success Norma. Sorry about your tummy troubles though.

You must have a look for the pics Crispy.

TrillianAstra · 04/07/2010 21:57

Mmm, strawberries and meringue for pudding.

NormaSknockers · 04/07/2010 21:58

Mmmmmm meringue yum, yum!

NormaSknockers · 04/07/2010 22:01

Right I'm off to bed with Edward Cullen Nighty night all
