EHM Ellie sounds delightful at the moment!, luckily this year my lot have all been well. That never happens in this household, I haven't even had a cold and that is saying something. I bet I've spoken too soon! I need to think about some food for tea today and have no idea what to do for it. Any ideas from you lovely ladies? Would love pasties but can't travel down to just get them!

EHM · 09/05/2007 16:42

aufish Hope good health continues in your household We just appear to have had one thing after another My mum makes pasties with premade pastry, turnip, onion, chunks of beef & potato. Very morish....yum

I fancy home made scones but can't be arsed to make them Ellie is napping & Dh still at gym.

Aufish · 09/05/2007 16:58

I remember my gran making pasties every week on her kitchen table, they would be the size of a baking tray each! I'm going to make some tomorrow for me and the kids and really enjoy them, don't think the other half will be having any as he will be asleep. So are you from that end of the country as well? Never thought to ask before.

EHM · 09/05/2007 17:46

aufish I am from the northeast but we love homely hearty food in our family. I've made cheese scones & plain scones they just cooling.

Aufish · 09/05/2007 18:01

EHM I really should do some baking as well, been really lazy these last few weeks with it.

SimplySparkling · 09/05/2007 19:44

Hello to all. Just a very quick post as I've worked a long day (again!) and I've lots to do tonight.

EHM Good to see you again.
Jelley I'm not signed up to CAT but can do if you'd like us to be on e-mail. I don't know what you're referring to in your 2nd post of the day but if I can help at all, I'd be glad to.

luda I'm not working now until next week. Would you like to get together at all? You could come to mine if you wanted. You'd have to find lots of phrases to use instead of "My, what a mess!" i.e. "This room will be really nice once you've finished" and "Oooh, this room has potential!" E-mail me if you'd like to.

Got to dash. See you all tomorrow.

Evening all.
No lunches made yet! Will do them soon.
Evening has been ok. I like the sound of pasties. Not sure how i would be with them at the moment though.. I have the Drs in the morning to discuss scan results. Will let you know how i get on. Also Mums friend in Turkey has done an absent healing on me to sort the gall stones . Am going to start a thread on it to see if its possible or not! I am not sure i believe in it.

EHM · 09/05/2007 21:04

Hi SSparkling, tort good luck tomorrow.

tortoise · 09/05/2007 21:08

Thanks EHM. Hope snot monster is better soon. We have colds too.

Jelley · 09/05/2007 21:10

Evening

Sorry I didn't report back earlier, particularly if 've worried you SimplySparkling. HV came to follow up on me querying pnd/generally not coping very well atm. I have started a course of counselling, and had a long chat with h/v who has given me some things to think about/follow up. She has also referred me fpr physio for the sciatica, which is a big factor in my mood at the moment, so I'm feeling more positive now.

I've paid my cat fees if anyone wants my email (You don't have to pay to receive a cat) but say soon, as it runs out next month!

I've done dps tax return this evening (Huge bill, but we have enough saved up to cover it I hope) It is always better to know just how much we owe, I think.

Hi EHM. I hope Ellie sleeps okay tonight. Just to mention, normally on MN, someone puts gaps between their e-mail address so that scanners working cyberspace (does my lack of knowledge of anything technical show clearly yet? ) i.e. susan a jones at bt dot something or other. Also, it's important that someone pretending to be your MNer friend doesn't e-mail you and give false details, so whenever I've e-mailed someone, I've used the thread to say "I've just e-mailed you" to prove that I am the person e-mailing. Sorry that's long winded!

Jelley You didn't worry me, honestly. I will take you up on the CAT offer as then we'll be able to talk off board. Sorry to hear about the back pain. I hope it can be relieved for you soon.

It's a funny thing, and I don't want to generalise hugely or go into detail, but I think there are a few of us on this thread who have similar problems/fears/hopes for the future etc. Perhaps that's why we're a nice, understanding bunch!

glassslipper · 09/05/2007 21:43

I'm doing well. I stillllll have a shiny sink. I have cleared 2 hotspots today. I've just cleared my kitchen so tomorrow will finsih off by wiping down the doors, walls, cupboards etc. Then with the exception of the fridge & ovens (yuk to both) that is my whole kitchen done

jelley - cat me please oh long term flying friend

tortoise · 09/05/2007 21:50

Wow well done Glassslipper. You are doing great. i still haven't done the lunches or cleaned the fridge! Maybe i will find time for that tomorrow!
