You really are such a hard worker Zombie. I don't know how you do it. Hope you get to rest this evening. I'm sure you will have a lovely time with your friend. What's on the menu or will you be going out ?

iklboo · 24/03/2016 20:18

Do rest up now Zombie & enjoy the weekend. I'm just having a wee gin to warm up for GIN FEST tomorrow. Yay!!

BewitchedBotheredandBewildered · 24/03/2016 22:47

Very pleased to hear you've got lots of support Z and really hope you have a wonderful week-end with your friend.

Hope the weather is as nice with you as it is here. Had a lovely walk along the sea front - just jeans & T shirt!! Really warm. Bring on summer.

Enjoy the GIN ikl!!

Mummylin · 25/03/2016 16:39

Have a good catch up with your friend Zombie.
ikl my brother and I have been trying to think of that word once again, neither of us can remember. It's driving us mad !

FattyNinjaOwl · 25/03/2016 17:39

Have fun zombie
ikl don't get too drunk. Wait. What am I saying? Get off your face Grin

IamtheZombie · 25/03/2016 21:33

After my friend finished cleaning my refrigerator she put all the shopping away. I wasn't allowed to do anything.

We then headed into Ludlow for a couple of hours. We had a wander around the market, bought a few cheeses, some pickled garlic and some roast artichoke. Then we had lunch and toddled home.

I put the ingredients for a loaf of sourdough bread in the bread maker and was then banished from the kitchen again. When I was allowed back in she had cleared the kitchen table and generally tided things up. I refused to let her do anything else. Until tomorrow. It looks as though the weather is going to take a turn for the worse so if it's not fit for some sightseeing, we'll attack another room.

We had a grazing dinner: hummus, guacamole, olives, pickled garlic, roast artichoke, grapes, totilla chips and cracked black pepper / sea salt crackers all washed down with some rather nice champagne.

We have talked non-stop since 09.00 this morning and laughed until we nearly cried. She has just gone up to bed and I will follow shortly.

Very, very happy Zombie.

Good friends

Good food

Good wine

What more could anyone ask for?

So please you are having a great week end.

iklboo · 25/03/2016 23:43

Lin - is it happenstance?

iklboo · 25/03/2016 23:47

BTW - ginfest is amazing. Maybe we should try & coordinate a phalanx one next year. Made friends with several new brands....tasted lots & lots.

Zombie - glad you're having a splendiferous time!

Mummylin · 25/03/2016 23:50

Oh thank goodness Ikl ! Yes it's the one, will fire if an email to my brother right now. It was driving us mad !!!

FattyNinjaOwl · 26/03/2016 00:18

Obviously gin makes you able to read minds! Gin rocks. Grin

Fiderer · 27/03/2016 08:55

Happy Easter to all Easter Grin

So jealous of the ginfest. Where I live they are a million winefests but a ginfest appeals more.

Hope your weekend continues to be splendiferous, Zombie

FattyNinjaOwl · 27/03/2016 09:38

Mummylin · 27/03/2016 13:33

Happy Easter phalanx, hope you all are having a lovely day.
Zombie , hope you have done choc to munch on today and that you and your friend are having a great time catching up with everything. Easter Smile

IamtheZombie · 27/03/2016 20:54

This has been the best Easter weekend I've had in many years. Sadly all good things must end. I'm just home from dropping my friend off at the railway station. There is no train tomorrow morning which is early enough to have got her to the airport on time. I was planning to drive her to the airport in the morning but as that would have meant leaving home at 05.00 when the weather forecast is for heavy rain. So my friend insisted (wisely I must admit) on booking a hotel at the airport for tonight.

As you all know, I'm not often lost for words. But I really can't express just how much this visit meant to me.

All I can say is that I am blessed with incredible friends.

Aw, I'm so glad you enjoyed your time with your friend. And your friends are blessed with an incredible woman in you zombie

Mummylin · 27/03/2016 21:36

I'm sure it will be only the first of many visits Zombie. Something for you both to plan for the future. Happy to see you have had such a great time. Obviously she is a true friend to you. Flowers

magimedi · 27/03/2016 22:25

I well remember my Dear Dad (long gone) saying that you are lumbered with family, but thank fuck you can choose your friends.

So happy to hear that you had such a good time, Zombie.

BewitchedBotheredandBewildered · 28/03/2016 00:30

That's lovely, hope you're sleeping well now.
