If your potatoes were ash, wouldn't they be soft? :D Next time don't burn them first. A Guy

That's the one I watched last night, watching the Goblet of Fire at the moment.

I think it's bothering John more than me about the bathroom, I said I'd just carry on and manage but he said there'd come a time when I couldn't manage. I'll worry about that if the time comes. :D

Weren't you the busy little bee, you'll meet yourself coming back if you're not careful. :wink: Hope the cake turned out OK, but then, of course, it would you made it. Enjoy your spag bol. :)

Ah was it any good? Han says it's her favourite. My, my you are getting through them. Han's trying to talk me into watching them but I'm having none of it. :lmao:

Aww bless him, he's just thinking of you, but you know what you're capable of. It would have been nice to have the bathroom but if that wasn't the option for you then I'm sure something else will present itself along the way.

I know I always meet myself coming backwards, especially when I'd dropped the cake off and got home and realised she didn't have a tail! 🙈 They absolutely loved the cake. Sofia is such a sweetie pie and apparently was thrilled with the cake as was her mum Jamie. I've got a picture of her with the cake so when I post all about it I can put a picture of her on the site with it.

@A Guy I wish they would have been instead of the not soft not hard ones! After all, those hours of stewing and they weren't done. :(

We didn't end up having Spag Bol tonight, we got the stuff but didn't feel like it. I made Han pasta, John had Noodles and I had Jacket potatoes with cheese. Spag Bol will now wait until tomorrow.

Well I'm halfway through them at the moment, I've watched one on a Saturday night and another on the Sunday night, so next weekend it will be films 5 and 6 and the last 2 the weekend after. Still have the rest of the bonus CDs to watch.

I enjoyed it but then so far I've enjoyed all of them.

Glad to hear the cake was appreciated and enjoyed.

Wow! just seen the time, got to go, shutting down for the night see you all tomorrow. :D
 
Crikey I've just noticed the time you were posting! Did you manage to nod off okay? 😴

If I'm on the PC until that late it takes me ages to wind down. I was on here until about 10 pm but then I called it a night.

We've just nipped out to buy some spray paint for my mirror. It's currently white and we want it to match the rest of the paintings in the hallway. Hopefully, with the weather being scorchio tomorrow we'll be able to get it sprayed and dried in one go. 🤞
 
Yes got to sleep OK, we don't actually settle down until about 1 o'clock but I always shut down at 12 then go and get my cocoa made take it to bed with a bag of crisps and a Mars bar and read a book.

Did you get your scorchio ? got some sunshine here but no way was it warm.

Kelly is having a couple of the guinea pigs for Caia and she's drawn a picture of her pinny gig :lmao:
 
That used to be me, 1 am used to be my bedtime on a normal working week as I remember ironing my suits at 10:30 pm each night and then by the time I'd faffed about and watched a little TV 1 am would be a good time to get to bed.

Lol, aww bless you munchies before bed, yes that is me sometimes although if I ate a Mars Bar at that time I'd still be up. I say that but I have been known to eat at a bowl of Frosties late at night so I suppose it's the same thing. :yum: I love my sweet treats, it's my only vice these days.

We're apparently waiting on scorchio today, it is going to be a little colder than expected but we're still looking at around 20°C which is great for October. Whoop whoop.

John's going to spray paint my mirror today so fingers crossed that looks ok when he's finished.

It was sunnier and a bit warmer today here but I think it's supposed to be turning to rain from tomorrow.

I'll be getting my new glasses tomorrow brought out to me, gone for something different this time. I usually have plastic frames, well I've always gone with the cheapest because John has always had the more expensive ones, the ones I've gone with were free with my NHS Voucher and are metal frames this time.

Caia has named her pigs and apparently it's from another of the TV programs the kids are hooked on at present, Apple and Onion. :lmao:
 
It's full blown gales here today, I have to laugh because we cleared up all the leaves at the front yesterday and now we've no idea when the grass starts and the leaves end! :lmao:

I've finally managed to post my baking essentials getting started post today, after working on it for 3 days now! I don't know why but every time I got into doing it I then ended up doing something else.

I also have to start my Christmas shopping soon otherwise it'll be mid-November before I know it and I won't have got anything. I keep adding things to my Amazon wish list so when people ask me what I want I can just get them to order something from there. Are you doing any more jumpers this year Joan?
 
Not this year Angie, I've not done any knitting for months I've got one of my own sat in a container at the side of me but can't get round to getting on with it.

I'd just finished reading that post Angie and thought it was a very good starting point.

I'm glad I don't have to worry about Christmas or birthdays till 2020, mind you that's all because Kelly is so organized when it comes to present buying and I just have to transfer a set amount for each one of them over to her. :D
 
That's not like you, you're always rustling up some goodies. I think you need to make a little time and get your creative juices flowing. :)

Thanks, Joan, I thought I'd do the Baking Essentials for the people who just find the site or are new to baking as it gives them a starting point.

Seriously, I need Kelly's number she's super efficient. I really need to get on with doing mine although I don't really like going out shopping I'm more of an internet shopper or as buy as I see kind of shopper. :D

I'm off to stick my roasters in now, we're having Lamb Shanks for Sunday Dinner today.
 
Kelly is mainly an Internet shopper as well but she usually does it throughout the year when things are cheaper and she still needs to Christmas shop for more stuff for the children.

Hopefully I'll get my creative juices back for knitting soon.
 
That is seriously organised especially to 2020 crikey she is good, I bet she does vouchers and discount codes and everything. :D I keep talking about doing ours but then things get in the way, I have started looking though so that counts I suppose.

I do hope you get back into your knitting, I love seeing the things you have made. Maybe you should start small and then work up to the big stuff perhaps.

I've just received one of my new moulds today so I'm hoping I can have a play about with that in the next few days. Time sees to be flying by at the minute!
 
What moulds have you got Angie?

Hopefully the knitting will resume soon but at present when I've finished on the computer at night I'm playing on my Nintendo till bedtime.
 
Another one for cake decorating, it's quite good I managed to have a play about with it today.

Joan, you're such a Geek! :lmao::lmao::lmao: You'll be doing the Fortnite Dance next!

Off to make Spaghetti Bolognese now for tea.
 
That'll get your hips swinging. :wink:


Well, my new cake tins have arrived today although I'm sure someone had pre-opened the box. 🤔 I'm wondering if they forgot to put my add on item of another tin in it and just opened it back up. :lmao: Anyway, all my stuff arrived in one piece and other cake dec stuff also arrived which was pretty quick considering I only ordered it yesterday. So happy chappy, I've now ordered more stuff so the next few days will be delivery central. None of it's even for Christmas. 🎅:D
 
:dizzy: You must be joking, there's no way I could move like that anymore I'd be sure to break something if I tried.:scream:

Glad to hear everything was in your boxes, I'm always suspicious if I get a box that's been damaged and wondered if someone was trying to see what was inside and if it was worth pinching.
 
Lol, I fall over my own feet, :lmao: for some reason, I cannot co-ordinate hands and feet when dancing. :oops:

I know especially this time of year but everything was in there, I just think they forgot the add-on and didn't want to faff with a new box.

I received some more copies of my books yesterday but they're going to have to go back. I think the printer had a colour issue and they have a purple/blue hue on the covers. John says they're fine but I'm not happy with them especially because they have my name on them so I'm sending them back.

The one on the right is fine but the others you can see they are purple, have a white mark and there is a blue smear across some of the picture. The contents are fine so it's a shame really especially because I've been waiting for them. Anyway I'll send them back tomorrow and wait for my new ones which will hopefully be in mint condition.
 
Hope your new ones turn up OK. I've been busy this weekend sorting out the dining room, well it was Kelly's bedroom originally. :D
 
So do I, I think it is just a colour/toner error which has caused it.

What've you been doing to the dining room/Kelly's bedroom then?
