anno, ella, Nellie, when, annsixty we are the Cheshire set grin

annodomini Thu 11-Jul-13 21:32:40

There's Stockport and then again there's Stockport, annsixty. Did I go up or down in the world when I moved out of Bramhall. grin

whenim64 Thu 11-Jul-13 21:19:40

Stansgran good point! Timperley is just a mile down the road from me, so maybe it qualifies for the rhubarb triangle, too! grin Aldi champagne and Timperley Early rhubarb. Great stuff! grin

Stansgran Thu 11-Jul-13 20:45:45

Lovely day here but I thought you were talking about the rhubarb triangle.

annsixty Thu 11-Jul-13 19:56:07

We in Stockport look in envy at Poynton,don,t know where that places me compared to the Triangle,very low down I think!!!

Ella46 Thu 11-Jul-13 19:55:52

Nellie I bet you're really worried...................not! grin

Nelliemoser Thu 11-Jul-13 19:52:19

We are both beyond the pale Anno that's my social pretensions up the spout. wink

Ella46 Thu 11-Jul-13 19:50:43

No need to be snooty anno grin

annodomini Thu 11-Jul-13 19:42:26

Poynton is just outside that Champagne Triangle. We are outsiders looking in!

Nelliemoser Thu 11-Jul-13 18:47:18

I actually saw a woman fitting that description profile in Alderley Edge. I did my best not to laugh.

Ella46 Thu 11-Jul-13 18:34:17

Of course ............all welcome grin
You have to be a deep shade of mahogany, with false nails,false eyelashes and false boobs, and teeter on 7"heels with a miniscule, skin tight, plunging necklined dress!
Oh, and a footballer has to be involved too wink

Butty Thu 11-Jul-13 16:37:34

ella Is there room for me in the T.T. - sounds lots of fun. grin

Ella46 Thu 11-Jul-13 16:24:01

It should be called "Tarts Triangle" to be more truthful grin

Nelliemoser Thu 11-Jul-13 11:36:12

Ah! problem is DH doesn't drink alcohol since he was ill 3ys ago. A whole bottle would go flat before I could drink it. What I need is an occasion and some willingly boozy friends to share it with and not need to drive home afterwards.

vegasmags Thu 11-Jul-13 11:33:51

I have a friend who lives in Knutsford - does that count? Where I live is less champagne triangle, more Wetherspoon's happy hour grin

whenim64 Thu 11-Jul-13 11:15:09

Nellie if you've got an Aldi nearby, the champagne is the same that they spend their footballer's and TV celeb's wages on in this neck of the woods! grin

Nelliemoser Thu 11-Jul-13 11:03:42

whenim Ella46 I suspect the champagne triangle doesn't include the south of Cheshire where Sook and I live.

I do know someone who lives in Wilmslow! Does that increase my social status ? Sook and I live nearer Bridgemere though and that's the best garden centre I know.

whenim64 Thu 11-Jul-13 10:27:55

Oh, I'm envious, Butty. There are so few butterflies and ladybirds about at the moment round here. I hope it improves soon. I've got so many butterfly attracting flowers blooming now, and a couple of insect towers - surely they'll be tempted?

Butty Thu 11-Jul-13 10:23:12

ella and when smile.

Lots of sunshine on my walk this morning, accompanied by so many butterflies I stopped counting, and had to be careful not to step on them as they fluttered to land just ahead of me on the path. Delightful.

^CHAMPAGNE TRIANGLE ? Do tell more ELLA .

How right you are , WHEN .

whenim64 Thu 11-Jul-13 10:14:16

Ella shush....they might notice grin. This thread is a safe haven! sunshine

Ella46 Thu 11-Jul-13 10:11:18

I'm here! Gorgeous sunshine in the 'champagne triangle' grin.
I'm so enjoying all these lazy sunny days. It's much too hot to do anything when.
Yesterday, I took advantage of the slight drop in temperature and went to the garden centre, where the sale was on! Got two large and healthy plants for my sitting room at a very good price smile smile

Has anyone else noticed that this thread is one of the few where no one has a go ?

Nelliemoser Thu 11-Jul-13 09:19:10

Just warming up nicely in Cheshire . Its a bit fresher than the last two days.

Nonu Thu 11-Jul-13 08:47:21
