No Tennis? You can not be serious!

[JaneJeffer]

No tennis never bothered us before so why change now?

He was very clean, Baby Jeaus.

Bold fail his middle name is Barron which is a tradition in the Murray family. I think Andy wasn't too keen.

Oh yes I knew there was some sort of bear thing going on !

I’ve set JoN to record - it was made in 1977 . I’m sure the whole family will be impressed if I suggest it for tonight’s viewing!

Joseph is a hottie

I think Bear Barron might have been too much of a mouthful

I’m getting excited about JoN now with the very clean Baby Jesus and hot Joseph! I hope it’s as good as I remembered (all those years ago!)

ooh- we get Robert Powell (of the blue eyes), and Michael York losing his head, in the next part of JoN.

Stan is playing backgammon with a cuddly polar bear - with a couple of bear jokes thrown in for good measure

(Sorry, I don't know how to link it. I'm a luddite, I know )

I saw that kazza

Barbora's niece is so cute.

Oh I’d forgotten about Barbora - cute baby

Stan is funny - I can’t remember how to do links or photos however many times I’m shown either kazza - I think DS1’s patience is wearing thin after the Rafa in his pants debacle

I managed to watch the Roger Wimbledon clip without crying Spidey so I must be feeling a bit stronger today!

Had to queue outside the butchers for ages to pick up some lamb for tomorrow’s lunch - felt a bit as if it was war time but at least we’ve got nice food and wine and chocolate and so far we are all well

I’ve worked out how to have some alone time - just put Jesus of Nazareth on - that soon cleared the room! I watched most of the first bit - it was OK but a bit Monty Pythonish . There are some very famous people in it.

Hope everyone is OK

I'm very confused by Djok's garden

What the heck?

When you can't decide if you want a patio or a lawn

how does he (or his gardener) cut the grass?

We unintentionally ended up with a back garden like that, -only more overgrown-- when the grass just took over the patio. It is not easy to mow. Though I doubt Djok does it himself .

I bet you it's astroturf!

that garden set up is massively irritating me! Argh! Just why?!

Although to be fair to djok (well why not, for once?!), I thought he was in Spain somewhere and not at home? Although that.might have been part of my fitness video dream.

Enjoyed all your Jesus of Nazareth posts. Good tactic for getting some peace Fizzy. Hope you had a secret chocolate stash to enjoy as well.

It does feel a bit like rationing sometimes doesn't it, although obviously I know it was much worse back then. Did anyone watch "Back in time - the corner shop" recently? They featured rationing on that and one of the customers came in to the shop and tried to swap a cabbage from his allotment for an extra egg - over and above his ration! Which was highly frowned on apparently.

Sadly I don't have an allotment, although I am growing some lettuce - something to look forward to in a few weeks

Right I'll stop my inane AC style witterings now. Hope everyone is ok.

I enjoyed your witterings

I emailed a shopping list to DH yesterday to get on his way home from work and had the following conversation when he got home.
Me: Did they not have broccoli?
DH: They had loads.
Me: Why didn't you get any?
DH: It wasn't on the list.
Me: Where's the red peppers?
DH: They weren't on the list.
Me: Show me the list!
He'd only printed off half of the list! He got me a Galaxy Easter egg though which is much nicer than broccoli

yes imagine if he got the veg instead of the egg!

DH went to the shops a few weeks ago (when things were really crazy) and forgot the list . We had to send him a photo of it - I’ve now taken over shopping duties!

I know what you mean about rationing Spidey - it’s DH’s birthday on Tuesday and I don’t know if I’ve got enough sugar or flour to make a cake! I keep hearing stories about how people in the war didn’t have sugar in their tea so that they could make a birthday cake!

Chocolate always better than broccoli Jane

I am introducing my lot to the joys of 'Half a Sixpence'. They really don't share my love of cheesy musicals. Nor do they appreciate me singing along .

Another good way of getting some alone time Raahh

I'm so lazy today. I'm watching Miss Potter. It's lovely. I love Renee Zelwegger.

I love Miss Potter as well - it's so sad though!

Raahh good work with the cheesy musicals!

BB has posted a good video of himself shopping for essentials in M&S
