Congratulations to the golden couple. Here's to many more happy years. [Wine]

downtoearth, bacon rolls ...I shouldn’t....but ooh how lovely ?

Happy Golden Wedding Anniversary kitty and Mrlester
Congratulations to you both ??

You look just as happy today as you did on your wedding day

kitty and Mr Kitty many congratulations on your 50th . Hope you have a lovely day. Fantastic photos, you haven’t changed a bit ???

These are lovely photos Kittylester and you are a lovely couple, then and now. Happy Golden Anniversary and many more. I'm off to make a Victoria sponge so I'll bring it to the kitchen later

Happy Golden Wedding Anniversary to the kittylesters, you both look far too young to have clocked up so many years together! Congrats and I hope you will celebrate many more anniversaries to come.??

soop what a day of tennis yesterday. I’m afraid there was some of what my late Nana would have described as ‘lazy talk’ erupting from between my lips as our Rafa gave us some heart stopping moments, and as for Tsitsipas going out after putting up such a brave fight, well it’s not repeatable in polite company. ?

I shall be watching the Ladies final today although not really very interested in them. I hope the American doesn’t win.
I shall be having palpitations tomorrow and if Rafa doesn’t triumph there will be more than rude words I can tell you!

(Apologies to non tennis fans, but soop understands.?)

Happy Golden anniversary kitty, lovely photographs.
We were married in the autumn too, it is our 53rd anniversary next week.
Sorry I came empty handed but I am still in bed.

Lovely photo's Kitty,after all these years on GN it is nice to put a name to a face,you are how I imagined from your posts.

Kitty! A very Happy Golden Anniversary to you and Mr L! What a smashing couple! Have a lovely day!???

Congratulations to you both kittylester. Beautiful photos.

I’m trying to be better at keeping in touch with Granspals and I reckon the kitchen and the good morning thread are the best place to do so. Kindness abounds here and I cannot be doing with drama llamas.

So I’m sending huge good wishes to everyone, especially those if you going through difficult times.

DH is making a pot of coffee without which I cannot start my day. I’ll get him to make another for here and leave it in the stove.

You gorgeous couple ?

Many congratulations kitty hope you have a wonderful day. Lovely photos and still a very handsome pair!

Thank you all for your good wishes.

Kitty congratulations on your golden anniversary,hope you and Mr L have a wonderful day.

Have left Bacon rolls on the side for all who want them.

The good morning thread tells me it’s Mr and Mrs Lesters golden wedding anniversary today. Many congratulations to them both. Virtual gold medals on their way, ??????

ann so pleased. Thanks for letting us know. A speedy recovery to you and now a good night’s sleep ?

I read the posts in the kitchen but don’t contribute as I’m not such a good cook, but I could contribute a good Sauv blanc if that’s allowed? Glad to hear all going well for Ann
Disappointed re the DH4 or is it 5? My take is that I agreed with what they said; don’t understand the ban, and have long thought that some newish posters just do it to get a rise out of others...there I’ve said it and if I have to join the DH crew then so be it!
PS I love this kitchen and all who frequent it

Glad to read your news Ann, and hope you have a quick recovery. Don`t be brave, take any painkillers on offer!

Happy news Ann! Sure you’ll make a good recovery and will be up and about soon! Don’t go dancing with the doctors just yet though!

I’m a poster of quite a few years but don’t post very much and have never dared to enter this hallowed area - Soop’s kitchen.

I am so out of touch with anything dramatic or concerning on any posts and so out of touch I didn’t even know anyone had been suspended (never mind any rhyme or reason) until a post mentioned it so I came in here to read more posts about it all. I am no wiser now, would someone be kind enough to let me know what was said so I know not to say anything like it, PLEASE!
