RE: WHAT ARE YOU HAVING FOR DINNER TONIGHT?

You're welcome. Where have you been? The UK is getting further and further into a mess, so welcome back to these mad islands.

RE: RE: Ye Thought or Rant of the Day!!!

Morning to you, and to all on here.

RE: RE: Ye Thought or Rant of the Day!!!

Really? That is terrible. Perhaps go on a price comparison site copying and pasting the make and model into google and searching for the cheapest. Although of course if you want connection to the pipes, and the old one recycled, you have to take that into account in the price. £140 is an incredible amount. You could almost buy a new machine for that.

RE: WHAT ARE YOU HAVING FOR DINNER TONIGHT?

The Shepherd's Pie and Spag Bol are the best, although of course there are others. I don't know what the Pro Points are, but each of those two are 300 calories or under. Some people thumb their nose up about basics range of supermarket food, but Sainsburys are really great quality. Each of their Basics ready meals can be microwaved in about 5 minutes, or best to oven-cook so the potato toppings brown nicely. Each meal is 85p or less. Someone else mentioned to me their Basics crisps are good and on moneysavingexpert dot com in the Food forum there is a whole thread on what is good and what is not good for Sainsburys Basics range. It is worth looking at. You will find their Basics range in the fridge section, not the freezer section. Have a good evening Crystal.

RE: WHAT ARE YOU HAVING FOR DINNER TONIGHT?

I love the Sainsburys Basics range of ready meals if I am too tired to prepare a meal. The Spag Bol is really lovely, and these value or basics ranges of meals usually have less preservatives, chemicals, etc. With some coleslaw and olives. As Tomcat would say, "yum yum."

RE: Its 37c here today! what do you do to keep cool????

Take it easy - housework in early morning before 8 a.m., then lukewarm shower, dry off naturally and loose clothing. Curtains drawn shut and fan on. Feet in bowl of cold water if sitting down relaxing. If out, then walk in shade as much as possible. Plenty of water to stop dehydration.

RE: WHAT ARE YOU LISTENING TO NOW PART 3

Sade, the Ultimate Collection CD. Wonderful!

RE: funniest statements in girl's profiles...

I think it is rather rude of you to say, "is that a greedy mind or empty brain" and not content with asking this question here you have also asked it on the Blogs section. Why do you think a down to earth person is greedy or empty. You are making presumptions before even meeting the person.

RE: RE: Ye Thought or Rant of the Day!!!

I know, it's brilliant isn't it!

RE: RE: Ye Thought or Rant of the Day!!!

And a Hi de Hi to you too and all on the UK Forums. Here's a song to make you all smile before we rant away.

RE: US is negotiating with Taliban

Uh oh

RE: Do people in their 60's still get the urge?

Lol, no. There ought to be a suitable term though.

RE: Do people in their 60's still get the urge?

What I meant was he is a man but I don't like to say my manfriend

RE: Do people in their 60's still get the urge?

Absolutely. My boyfriend, although he is not a boy(!) was almost right under my nose. I think sometimes we discount what is right in front of us, trying to look far and wide. Also people should not simply rely on the internet to find someone.

RE: How to embed video clips

I remember this!

RE: Man Goes To Jail Over $1 Robbery

I steer clear of the Obama threads, but he seems notorious - the Dude not Obama!

RE: What helps you relax after a stressful day?

Great, thanks. I think Bournemouth seems to be something for everyone, from what I remember anyway. Also being on the coast it is easy to visit other coastal resorts and the countryside.

RE: Do people in their 60's still get the urge?

Oh I just have the aches and pains of middle age (plus 10 years). Good luck with finding someone. I didn't find mine on here, but lots do. It isn't a bad site is it.

RE: Man Goes To Jail Over $1 Robbery

Ah I am not familiar with the Dane; probably just as well really.

RE: What helps you relax after a stressful day?

Sounds good, but I think I would rather come when less busy as these airshows certainly draw the crowds. But I certainly want to visit. How is the tourist industry there - are the B&Bs and hotels doing ok?

RE: What made you smile or laugh today

Ah, I didn't realise you were a returnee - welcome back. With a photo a person is more likely to receive scam emails. I had my photo on here for about a week, then took it off and I have tweaked my profile so now I get almost none. I still get the occasional one saying they like my profile which is ridiculous as there is nothing to like! Anyway, hope you enjoy CS.

RE: Do people in their 60's still get the urge?

Haha, true. The only thing that may hold us back are rheumatism, but that only makes us more inventive for other positions

RE: What helps you relax after a stressful day?

I went to Bournemouth years ago, just for a day, and loved it. Wonderful beach, summer-time events, lovely shops etc. London is ok, but it is frustrating having to travel so far (from inner London) to get to some open countryside or the coast.

RE: RE: Ye Thought or Rant of the Day!!!

Wow, that's expensive. Shame she wasn't insured for vet bills before this problem happened. It will be good to see her pic.

RE: What made you smile or laugh today

RE: RE: Ye Thought or Rant of the Day!!!

Yes, but look on the bright side, (or dark side ) at least you got there early even with the delays, so you must be improving. Poor cockatiel must have been traumatised with evading the travel bag and being shaken whilst you were running, then the wait for the vet in the bag and the trauma of the vet handling her or him. But at least you were on time

Hope he or she is ok.

RE: What made you smile or laugh today

Haha! I bet you get a lot of people wondering why you like dullnes, bad weather, grey skies etc. Probably you are sick of everyone thinking you are strange - which of course you are not




























I had to put that last bit in - don't want to upset you

RE: RE: Ye Thought or Rant of the Day!!!

I would hate to be late or rush. For a flight I would get to the airport at least a couple of hours before check-in opens, as I would hate to be rushed. A lot of people think I take it to the extreme but being in a hurry churns my stomach up, so to settle it I take it easy!
