Morning all.
Thanks bblover and ellemay. So good to have memories of John. I really don't remember that picture lover - have to agree with Lena, was the picture 'cropped'? Still pooped from yesterday's effort. Will practice the breathing exercises again but expect that I will fall asleep again. Well, housework calls so I will love you and leave you. Incidentally, if anyone wants a really good read may I suggest Binocular Vision by Edith Perlman. She is an American author and only writes short stories - real art to it. Anyway, hopefully back later. |

Page two already, thanks for your effort augusta.
![]() Sun's peeping behind the clouds today, not sure if there's enough blue sky to make a sailor a pair of trousers though, as my dear old Nan used to say. ![]() Sorry to hear you're pooped after your day at the pain clinic nyannie, shouldn't think all that travelling is helping either. ![]() I've found my dream house, beautiful white clapboard (always wanted to live in one of those) but do I really want to move further east along the coast to Camber Sands? Used to be one of my favourite haunts as a child, miles of sand and sea, and when I was older the sand dunes were quite handy too . The sea always felt warmer there, or as my Dad used to comment wryly 'it may have something to do with Dungeness' ![]() Was beginning to lean more towards the Isle of Wight and it's more temperate climate, used to spend a lot of happy long weekends there when I was small as my great uncle was a crab fisherman. ![]() OH is rapidly going off Devon and Dorset with the amount of flooding there. ![]() Oh, decisions, decisions. ![]() I see the shirt that isn't Johns went for a mad price. As you said elsewhere nyannie, 'a fool and his money are easy parted'.

Hi Ucra
Good to see you. How are things? Lena - I went to Camber Sands during a weekend in Rye - years ago. Had a lovely time and remember the sand so white and soft. . . Georgy - I am NOT stalking the gorgeous young man who looks like John, just hoping I bump into him again. I'm supposed to be thinking positive thoughts and this is a positive thought ![]() ![]() I'm cooking tonight - guinea fowl - never done it before, but saw this recipe for guinea fowl with mustard coated veg. Hope it works out or there will be big bust up with other half!!! |

I love veg too - I've also had to put 300 ml of wine in the tray - and bacon on top. Had to take some liquid out of the potatoes - too much I think.
Well, best go and check on it. See you tomorrow everyone.

Mine too Nyannie - tulips appearing in my containers - great sight
![]() Somehow Spring always cheers me up - new beginnings and all that. I have actually limited my tulip palatte to Princess Irene, Helmand and China Pink - all gorgeous. I put cayenne pepper on the bulbs to deter squirrels. Don't know if it helped, but there seem to be more sprouting. I too georgy agree. I hate to see people cheated out of money. Makes me mad. |

Forgot to wish everyone a good morning. Rain here but I'm not complaining - we've had over a week without any.
How are we all? Did anyone see Poor Kids in America? I was absolutely shocked - I knew the situation was bad but not that bad. The state doesn't provide emergency accommodation or much and of course no medical care - you have to pay for everything - once unemployment benefit runs out, you've had it. I was shocked that one of the children couldn't go to school. Education is so important for social mobility. A friend of mine told me there is now a soup kitchen in my hometown - unbelievable as it is an affluent area. What an eye opener. I wonder what social benefits you get in Australia? |

Oops!
Forgot to say georgy the guinea fowl was OK although it tastes like chicken - the vegetables were terrific. Going to try them again - you toss them in a mixture of olive oil, wholegrain mustard and lemon zest (got to use the zester I got O/H for Valentine's Day) and a bit of lemon juice. Then put them in a roasting tray with some dry white wine and roast for about half an hour to 45 minutes. Celeriac and carrots were the stars. I wonder if John does any cooking or if he still depends on Big Macs? |
