Crepey continuum

Over here!

(It's not MrsS's butler, I think. It does sound....racy, in faintly Upstairs Downstairs way.)

Sadly not my butler, Hattie!

My employer's butler!

- beginning to think I was much too common for this thread. Mind you - I don't think DH's employer has a butler. He does have a house with a pool though.

MI - yes even quaffing champagne with the bosses butler in the pantry sounds a bit Upstairs Downstairs. Mrs S - what an exciting life you do lead; .

Hope you get your work sorted MI.

Wish I had started the day drinking champagne in the pantry with the butler :(
Dp has gone for provisions, it is chucking it down, I am hoping he makes it back

MrsS I am stunned the freeloaders friends paid? Tell me it wasn't mucky D's please...

The best thing I have ever tried for radiance and generally marvellously glowing skin is Guerlain Issima Midnight Secret. But it is beyond my price bracket.

Will report back on the Filorga stuff when I have put my lenses in.

Hattie - boss's is correct. Unless there's more than one boss then it's bosses'. I think.

thanks herbs - yup it's when the apostrophe's on the outside of the plural that I always have a second thought and wonder if it's correct.

I spoke too soon on the snow front; we have a good few cms here, and still coming down. Not enough to cause any major inconvenience, but I need to take DD1 to a rehearsal shortly, and will have to forego the direct country lane route in favour of the "long way round".

MrsS - you won't recognise yourself.

MI, we are off to a paaartay tonight too! Even if the snow starts sticking!

MrsS - champagne with the butler, ooh err missus! We met a very nice butler (and his family - 2 sets of twins) when camping, 2 years on the trot!

Off out for breakfast with a friend in my new ultra-warm knitted dress

Dp returned with provisions....has gone back out to dig the car out
I think I need to get my boots on and go and find him.....

PMSL at the orchard.

He's back - a neighbour helped him and during the digging they have swapped careers and life stories :) we have milk and a laaaaaarge emergancy loaf. I am making curries for tonight.
We had a heart stopping high gas bill yesterday (was only 10 days shy of four months however), but sodit, heating on, snow continues..

News From The Apocalypse
We are still without power
Real drama here! We couldn't get to school because of snow drifts- completely snowed in. ( imagine us in blizzard trying to dig car out at 2.30am) another parent got Dd as far as fallen tree and dh skied ( yes skied) down to get her.( about 1 mile) No power here since last night. On and off all day yesterday. Freezing.
Awaiting rescue from snowplough

Bd - keep cosy

Mrs S- lol @ butler in the pantry

It is MID BLOODY MARCH.

Just saying.

IT IS allegedly THE EASTER HOLS.
When you get the BBQ out

Cremo Can't believe your DH had to ski to get her! Lucky he had skis/can ski. How did they get back? It must be bloody awful - have you got a real fire or any methods of keeping warm?

No snow sticking here - just freezing sleet, thank God!

DS and his mates are still here - now taking their size 8+'s off to a mates for yet more gaming/TV as footy training was cancelled

Cremo . After your DHs antics yesterday (tractor, fish 'n' chips, skiing) I have images of the milk tray man :) (come on crepeys got to remeber that!)

Dp has gone off to the gym (on foot), ds watching back to back Horrible Histories, I am baking ginger cake...

BTM they had to wade back. Dh brought an old plastic sleigh and threw dds case on to it. He has cross country Nordic skis. Was fast down the hill but dead slow up
Poor dd was/ is absolutely exhausted

We have a coal fire and gas hob. We will survive!

Well BBQ might be useful for keeping warm :)

DP is cooking lunch while I grimly work my way through this stuff...and doodle on MN obvs.

BD, I had a milk tray man

One summer's night I awoke to find him climbing in through my bedroom window - he had shinned up the drainpipe to my open window He was one of my housemates friends, and had forgotten a key (we always had extra's staying) and was very good looking with a sexy Dublin accent

Cremo, you are true troopers!

Wow Crem - remind me where you are with that weather.

This reminds me of that theory that says when the Gulf Stream stops winters will be much colder and longer.
