Sorry if you support Blackpool, or dgad. cupcake all round

Thanks girls, my friends were great but lunch was a bit disappointing. You know when somewhere is really good, and then it gets very popular and portions go smaller and standards drop slightly? That's what has happened, so when I got home I was still hungry! Hey ho!
Feeling more cheerful though! smile

Hope you feel better after your lunch nanachrissy. There's nothing like putting the world to rights with good friends over a meal sunshine

DEAR nanachrissy...wear a smile when you meet your good friends. Relax and enjoy their companionship. Hope that some sunshine lifts your spirits. xx

Just sitting quietly in a corner here at the moment. Feeling weepy and rather low. I know it will pass if I relax for a while. Going out with my two best friends for lunch so I will no doubt be laughing again soon. sunshine Thank heavens for good friends here and at home. smile

Go on, Bags...you can do it! smile
I meant to mention, that during our visit to Bags's home, we were treated to a tour of her peaceful wild garden with views across the loch. And we were invited to see the room in which she creates beautiful patchwork from interesting samples of textiles. flowers

Last night, I resisted the temptation to sample the GN [extra strong] gin. Saving it for tonight's special treat. wine I ate lots of delicious chocolate instead, and then asked Mr soop to hide it...which he has...and I'm still trying to sniff it out wink

The islands are looking beautiful against a soft blue sky. The wind is less chilly and the sea sparkles. Earlier, walked through a park carpeted with bluebells and wild garlic. Heavenly! sunshine

YES!! Great idea B. I'm sure you could lobby for one very successfully! smile

bags YES,!!!!!!!!!

jeni Fri 18-May-12 22:04:48

Thanks!
May we all be granted a peaceful and tranquil night!

Bags Fri 18-May-12 22:03:30

We need a crescent moon emoticon, or something equally nightly.

Bags Fri 18-May-12 22:02:59

Night, jeni. brew

Butternut Fri 18-May-12 21:47:47

jeni - Not past it at all - just in need of a little break on the QM! grin

Nite nite, and sleep well.

jeni Fri 18-May-12 21:42:02

Well it's bedtime for me!
I find dealing with Adrian Mole types exhausting!
They're so earnest and eager that you should understand!
They can't realise that a 67 year old brain is not as fast as theirs! I do understand, but it takes me longer to assimilate and digest than it used to!

Perhaps it's time I admitted I'm past it and moved into a geriatric home and sat in a circle watching endless boring tv?

Bed! Good nights sleep, and perhaps I'll feel less despondent in the morning?

Goodnight

syberia hi there!

Annobel Fri 18-May-12 16:14:27

Poor Butty, these bugs know when you're vulnerable! Your friends will eventually see sense and stop being childish. Keep your chin up!

Butternut Fri 18-May-12 15:25:47

Such good mates on GN! smile. Thank you all. I knew this quiet corner was the right place to be.
