Wifey is subtly trying to tell you something?Mornin!
would you all mind sending a bit of that sunshine over ere?
Tis another "gorillas in the mist" day and it's drizzling.
Market today, but have to wait in for some sossidges to be delivered.
We absolutely MUST get a number for our house, as Wifey orders stuff under her maiden nameand forgets to put our proper name on the delivery note. THAT is plastered all over the mailbox, for all to see.
Have a nice day folks.
Could just run a Union Jack up a flagpole somewhere I suppose!!
Nope, since her divorce from a absolute sh!te who always kept her short, to the point of missing meals to be able to feed the kids, she is very careful over her money. While still being enormously generous. I often have to tell her off for paying for things out of her own expense that should be a joint expense.Wifey is subtly trying to tell you something?

Or name the house "l'Albion Perfide", but we'd like to integrate a bit more than that!!!
Plus there is another couple of "rosbifs" further up the road, we wouldn't want to confuse poor old Chronoposties more than they already are!!
As it is, their time slot narrowed to an hour 9:45 to 10:45 and they came bang on 9:45. I had meanwhile written wifey's name in Laundry marker on an old envelope and spiked it on the gate, as well as updating the message to the "livreur" to reflect what is actually plastered all over the box.
They arrived, (It takes two to deliver sausages, maybe one was training) so they found us and I recognised the wee burd and she recognised me. So we were able to go off shopping only slightly later than usual.
So bangers, mash and peas tonight, a la gravy!!
Yum yum!
To go with all the other bits of kitchen equipment, like the pasta maker, that we have never used!!!
My Dad always quoted Micawber from Dickens.... 'Annual income twenty pounds, annual expenditure nineteen pounds nineteen and six, result happiness. Annual income twenty pounds, annual expenditure twenty pounds nought and six, result misery. 'Nope, since her divorce from a absolute sh!te who always kept her short, to the point of missing meals to be able to feed the kids, she is very careful over her money. While still being enormously generous. I often have to tell her off for paying for things out of her own expense that should be a joint expense.
So this is part of the baggage that came along with her. Not a problem at all we are both very careful with money, me more than her really. (Some call it "tight".) But my dad taught me the recipe for financial happiness in a marriage, and it really works so neither party feels aggrieved or that they are being mistreated. I'll not bore you with it as I think i have posted it up before.
(Didn't stop my parents getting divorced mind, but that was over other stuff. And when my ex and I got divorced we were able to use our records to divvy up the funds exactly in the same way, so again, no hard feelings.)
Maybe I should write it up for Mumsnet or summat!!!
He's got one but she's forgotten her name
. 25% straight to the recycle bin, 25% on the shredding pile, 50% carefully filed away in the loft never to be seen again.
Yes. And lifting + carrying those heavy pasties counts as exercise too. Going to Greggs is a healthy pastime
, but".If I ring them again you would need to insert “now covered in dounut sugar” into your delivery detailsYes
We need proof so we know you didn't just phone in for a delivery, to the "truck over here with theNakeddriver waving at you

., it has been raining for most of it which has taken a toll on the enthusiasm bucket. Anyway back at it today and more wood up to form a ceiling, running low on wood but should have enough to get it to plasterboard stage. Also banged me bonce again in the same place, bald patch has taking a battering lately.. Which is a great idea..
Which one did you visit?I have returned from the steel works. It is a shame you cannot take pictures as the place is huge!! Still, it was an experience
because the photo I took of me passport wasn't good enough. So took one with me phone cam and emailed it to myself (now that the inter web works on me phone. And uploaded it to the NHS site via laptop. Then cocked up the video bit by accidentally disabling the laptop cam and sound recording . Finally figured out how to turn them back on and finished the application process. And it all worked, I am now officially loggable in to the NHS online service and should be able to get a covid passport . Gonna have to do it all again with SWMBO, better hide anything that can be thrown
