nope.......I was a crisp girl

Amazing the buying power of a discovered Corona fizzy pop bottle....life was simpler then..LOL

Whose making a cuppa?

twass is, only one sugar in my coffe, cheers

twass - Yeah, loved Milky Bars... and then my pops got involved in the anti-Nestlé campaign

Do boycotts work??

we can only hope so...


got any cake with that cuppa?

Home made gluten free Yule cake. No point in waiting, is there?

I can wait for gluten-free anything, thanks

Nicest gluten-free meal you have had??

egg and chips!!!

It actually tastes the same as ordinary cake.

Do you get a poinsettia plant this time of year?

I like to get one every year if I get around to it as they are so nice and cheery and they last quite a long time.

Well, no one has won the bauble for their Christmas tree so I had better tell you who I saw in the services near Oxford this afternoon, and I am sure you will be most envious (not).
It was Seann Miley-Moore from the X-Factor this year!!! He was flouncing about in a long dress, high black boots, a long fur coat and all made up to the nines with big hoop earrings. Not many people were around him but some were taking photos and getting photos of their children with him. We were just walking through and it was my hubby that noticed him and said to me "Who's that bloke, I think I recognise him". I turned to look and said "Oh it's that Milley-Moore bloke from the X-Factor".

Are you looking forward to Christmas or not bothered?

Looking forward to the solstice

I've no idea who that person is as I don't watch X Factor Fibro....so I would not have recognised him.

Did you get his autograph?

nope

I`m looking forward to Spring........sighs

rice krispies or cornflakes?

Cornflakes please hoots. Rice Krispies are just puffs of air innit!

Do you add sugar to cereals or eat plain?

cornflakes
I don't add any sugar to cereals even though it tastes yummy
I may add a little sprinkle with hot creamy porridge

Wow Fibro ..... Seann Miley-Moore is memorable unique and great !!!!!!
Twassy - I Hope you can pop into the " What are you eating " thread
and hope in the future that you like using lettuces & cucumbers - assorted layered salads & watercress etc
in non salad meals / soups

What was the last potato product - that you ate ?

I made tato wedges from spuds and oil and baked them with our cod in breadcrumbs and peas

Do you make your own or eat frozen wedges?

That meal sounds lush Twassy
I like the McCains Mexican wedges
I only make my own if I have a big craving - when I know that I have some potatoes here

In the last few weeks I discovered that I really enjoy McCain's 5 minute microwaved jacket potatoes [ Have eaten about 8 recently and enjoyed every single one ]
I would have bought some last night but they were not on special -
They were selling for the reduced price of £2 for a box of 4 plump potatoes when I bought my boxes

Do you add some sauce onto most of your meals ?
& what sauce do you use the most ?

Ketchup, we had ketchup with our din dins!

Do you have a favourite t shirt?

I have many t shirts -
I don't have a fave as such - but they are worn daily
they are all quite plain in various colours - mainly grey purple & blues
I wear one - pretty well every single day of the year - In winter they are worn under other clothes - layers are good

Do you have a fave -
and does it get worn often ?

I have a pale blue Jimi Hendrix one that used to belong to Splint that goes on all the time. That and my purple Cure one!

Do you take any herbal supplements?

No, I do not

I like Sean Miley-Moore, he should have gone further in XF

Do you think supporting rights of the lgbt community help bring us all together??

Yes it should do at least, Nate. I saw a very sad clip on the telly earlier, a young guy saying his mother had said if he murdered someone she would still consider him her son, but if he was gay....not That's shocking isn't it??

To me that is incredibly shocking

Are you secretly pleased that Oscar has now gone down for murder??

I'm not sure pleased is the right word, but I think justice has been served

Have you seen the spoiler for the new series of GOT?

I've seen a big spoiler but I'm not sure we are discussing the same one which is in itself a spoiler

ITV has apologised for showing a news item about Sir Lenny Henry receiving a knighthood that briefly featured footage of TV cook Ainsley Harriott.

Does that make you laugh, cry or angry??

A bit of each

Why is a lot of humour so inappropriate?

I think that sometimes people laugh in a nervous way at things that make them feel uncomfortable. People all have such varying ideas of what is funny.

I agree with you Nate. Seann Miley-Moore has a fantastic voice and was knocked out of the X Factor far too early. It was a real surprise when he went.

I didn't get his autograph Twass, but got a photo of him, although it's not that good.

Who do you think will win the X Factor?

Oscar Pistorius?

They should cut his arms off.

Can you wag your tail? Or failing that can you really shake it up and boogie?
