Nothing about the Royals

This thread is nothing about the Royal Family.

Here is a joke -

Helvetica and Times Roman walk into a bar.
“Get out of here”, shouts the barman, “We don’t serve your type in here”

And a pretty picture -

He won the ‘no-bell’ prize

As my Dear Grandad used to say

When one door opens another closes.

Lovely man

Terrible Cabinet Maker

Tony Blackburn told that joke just this morning!

Each time I type Nortsat it magically becomes Northstar.

Or the alternative, when one door opens and another closes - you are probably in prison.

Just type meteorite, press enter, then wait a moment.

At last!

It reminds me of the snow I had falling on our school website at Christmas, whenever someone accessed it.
Unfortunately it was June, before I remembered how to uninstall that functionality!

Why was Cinderella bad at football?
She kept running away from the ball…….

Allsorts Sun 08-Jan-23 07:26:17

Kate, can you tell me how to stop my peace lily taking over the dining room table please..I am hopeless with plants really, better in the garden, but this weedy plant I bought discount, keeps growing It looks healthy but I don’t know where to put it.I don’t want to keep repotting as it quickly needs another pot.

Allsorts Sun 08-Jan-23 07:27:31

Sarah, love you hellebore I’m going out in the garden to see where mine has gone? Plant do sometimes disappear on me.

Kate1949 Sun 08-Jan-23 10:09:56

Allsorts I'm afraid I can't advise re the peace lily. I have no idea about plants. That my lily has lasted so long is miraculous. I water it every now and then. It has been repotted once about 10 years ago. It probably needs repotting again but I'm scared of killing it.
BigBertha I love Bounty bars too.

I’m enjoying a very lazy day - one of the few for a while - since a guest is arriving from Sweden on Weds and I’ll need to blitz the house first, - plus dd and 3 Gdcs will also be staying on Saturday night, in order to leave SiL in peace to get a major job done at home.

Yesterday I finally finished my 4th (I think) Big Fat Ted plus little hand puppet friend, ready to post off to Knit for Nowt. Also have a massive bag of outgrown clothes from dd, to post to her cousin. It’s going to need 2 parcels, so that’ll be 3 big ones - I shall use Click and Drop and pay a bit extra for the postman to collect them. Well worth 60p a pop!
