Well I’m a bit late to the party! But I’m celebrating with my husband our 45th wedding anniversary today. We are staying in the lakes and wondering where the years have gone!

Time for lunch, best wishes to all

Just in time to say good morning from a cloudier and breezier East Lothian than yesterday. We had a good time with
DGSs at a Science Festival event in Edinburgh yesterday. They and DSiL are away sailing on the Firth of Forth all weekend. Hope it’s not too windy.
DD is going to a work colleague’s leaving do in Edinburgh this pm so we will go in with her to help with her new-ish mobility scooter - she has a so far undiagnosed muscle weakness and pain which has resulted in her being unable to walk any distance. The scooter gives her a bit more freedom but it’s heavy to lift in and out of the car.

Lovely bluebells, Gingster - the wood we went to on Wednesday had only a few open as yet. Glad to hear good news of your DD.
Gagagran you garden will be a blaze of colour all summer.
Urmstongran your toenails and new sandals will look lovely together - my toenails are a mess so envy of yours and Jax. Safe journey Urmston.
Beautiful watercolour Holly. More envy!
Hope the nausea clears soon Marydoll.
Grandmattie ?
And ? for Harrigran as you relive your bad experiences - I remember your posts from last year.

Happy St George’s Day to English grans and those living in England (& Malta?).

It’s well past midday now - time to grab a piece of bread and cheese before driving to Edinburgh. Sun has come out ?

Nannagarra orzo is pasta, isn’t it?

Yes, it’s pasta which looks like rice. ?the recipe works.

Marydoll

I have the cement, I am just a feartie, Fanny. Good to see you posting again.

Thank you ?
Mouths are funny things. I know where you are coming from.

FannyCornforth Sat 23-Apr-22 12:11:25

A cheese crown. A crown made from cheese… Hmm.
Now my Platinum Jubilee plans are all coming together ? ?

FannyCornforth Sat 23-Apr-22 12:09:42

Marydoll I’ve heard that the ‘skin’ of a babybel cheese makes a good temporary filling!
I don’t know if it would work as a crown…

Nannagarra orzo is pasta, isn’t it?

A very late Good Morning from me in a rather gusty and grey Derby.
It will be afternoon by the time I press ‘post’.

Happy St George’s Day?
(I was going to wish William Shakespeare a Happy Birthday, but it seems that his birthday is now thought to be the 26th)

The thought of a photo of my feet fills me with horror!
Yours look absolutely fabulous Urms and Jacky
I must show mine some love when I have had my hip done.
The plan is that I get my date on Monday?

I think that I shall binge on The Thief, His Wife and The Canoe after I’ve listened to Any Questions.
Eddie Marsen is probably my favourite actor at the moment (sorry Roger Allam; I know that you’ll be gutted)

Thank you so much to those who have been thinking of me and keeping in touch ?
My GN friends mean so much to me.
Wishing everyone a peaceful day x

Megs36 Sat 23-Apr-22 11:54:55

Thanks Marydoll, you have courage in abundance with your health so a little thing like a crown is nothing! ?

Nannagarra Sat 23-Apr-22 11:49:26

Good morning from intermittently sunny Sefton by the sea.
Repotting herbs, shopping for veg and making chicken cacciatore with orzo are on my agenda today. Twice this week I’ve been “corrected” that orzo is rice.
I’m hoping that at some point another order for clothes will be delivered. Much as I long to be the model in the image who is 5’ 10” and wearing a size 8, reality and that dratted mirror tell me I’m not. Where is the height I should have gained and where is the law against mirrors? ?
Safe journey Urms. ✈️
Have the best day you can everyone.

Megs, I am so pleased to hear about your dental treatment. It gives me hope. I still haven't plucked up courage to cement my crown back in, to get me by, until I see the dentist!

Great taht you have the wedding to look forward too.
