Okay!!! The messages from so many lovely people have gone to my heart. My head has been over-ruled.

soop's kitchen is a cosy place. You lot are invited to drop in for a wee chat on whatever matter moves you.

Failing to find my passport (holiday imminent) pales into insignificance Soop. I did find it today! I had looked thro all my handbags except the one that was lurking in my 'posh' wardrobe. As I don't do posh very often these days, it was the last place I looked. (For posh read Previously Owned by Someone/ Sale items)
Sun almost over the yardarm so lets have a wine.
Sorry finocchio can't drink G&T.... wish I could it sounds so sophiisticated!
Chin up Soop and Mr. Soop.

Thanks so much for the offer of a G&T very welcome a while since I had one and just fancy one this pm.
soop so sorry to hear of your house problem but there will be a way around it I'm sure,mr.soop will no doubt come up with something clever I'm sure. flowers in the meantime keep enjoying the flapjacks grin,you both look fab on the pic's by the way.

Pizza delivery!!! Help yourselves, everyone. I've got a couple of bottles of Chardonnay here. Drink wine anyone?

annodomini Fri 30-Aug-13 22:06:07

Thanks, when. Just what I need. I've got a jumbo pack of crisps here so we can stock up on the carbs.

soop I have often found in the recent past that sometimes disappointments turn out to be blessings in disguise. I have seen photos of your cottage and you are in a beautiful spot in the world.

It's a beautiful Saturday morning here and I was in a dead sleep, D2 was knocking on my door to see if I wanted to go to town with her this morning. GD 21 months had lost her dolly, it went missing on Thursday night and now she was crying for her baybee. Yesterday while babysitting I thoroughly searched the house pulling furniture around. D1 said they had also searched thoroughly the night before. Five minutes later she was back, baybee had been found, under the shelf in a toy kitchen, where I had looked the day before. confused

We will still go to town and try and try to buy another and put it away, just in case. We get nervous that she will lose it, because she insists on taking it everywhere with her, tucked under her arm.

Hallo to those who pop in this morning. I have brought some shortbread biscuits only had to use semolina rather than ground rice - everyone must be baking shortbread because all the local supermarkets were empty of ground rice. Anyway, what I have come up with is okay but not quite the same sorry.

Sounds like a good plan for the day Faye but be warned your DGC will be able to tell the difference, mine always could. Perhaps you could swop them around so the doll gets that same 'much loved' feel?

We have friends coming around for a meal this evening. It is a long time since we last socialised so a busy day ahead in preparation. Enjoy yourselves.

Morning girls - just popped in for a coffee this time of the morning.

glammanana Sat 31-Aug-13 09:07:31

Things look nice and tidy after the pizza blowout last night someone must have stayed on and tidied up for soop how thoughtful,Rory has the distinct aroma of pepperoni coming from him but he looks quite content smile
I'm enjoying this brew before I go off to the Charity shop for the day,calm before the storm I think.smile

whenim64 Sat 31-Aug-13 09:21:33

Good morning. sunshine Fresh coffee here, and lots of hot buttered crumpets! Good to see soop's kitchen looking pristine. (I have replaced the date cake I swiped borrowed from the pantry last night - sorreeee!) grin
