On another thread, (about hijacking threads, if you want to find it) this was suggested as a potential thread title - each post to have nothing whatever to do with the previous one I though that a very good idea, but no-one seems to have taken it up and started one, so here goes. Not a conversation, no sequencing, totally non sequiturs.

Supermarket potatoes are sprouting faster than I can cook and eat them!

I think I've forgotten how to pack for a few days away!

I toasted the last crumpet in the pack and it tasted so strange.
It was only one day past it's sell by date.

I want to brag about a Clematis I’m growing. This bloom measures a whopping 19 cm across!

I'm fed up with my painful back and have decided to give in and get a parking permit, and claim something so that I can employ a cleaner etc.

Lovely lunch in St Andrews. Sitting outside in the sun. It was like being abroad.

I had to use a bus twice in the last couple of days - car broken down. Felt quite 'on edge' about it. shock

I hope the family tree I'm spending so much time on ends up being more accurate than some of the ones people have posted on Ancestry. One of my cousins has my dad born in Maine and dying in Ohio. He never set foot outside of Europe. hmm

My daughter brought her new camper van round to show me just now. It looks just like an ice cream van, so I’ve dubbed it Mr Whippy ?

The old rose by the front door which has been there for 40 years and I thought had died in the frost, is showing small signs of life.

I’ve found out tonight crumbled chorizo sausage added to pork mince makes tasty meatballs.

Amazon just delivered and the guy threw the package over the fence before I could get to the gate. Fortunately it was nothing breakable.

Went to choose some fat quarters for a wall hanging from a little shop near Launceston. What a relief to be able to actually see the fabrics again.

I have to stop using hand sanitizer. I'm having an allergic reaction to it. The palms of my hands itch and burn. They are inflamed, look scalded.

Went for a drive-thru KFC- ordered 4 spicy wings - came home, opened the box, only 2 ?and there’s no contact number - double ??

It feels so good so have had a haircut - the third one in 15 months - what strange times.

I’ve just had a swedish body massage. More knots in my shoulders than in an old oak wardrobe

henetha Wed 02-Jun-21 09:28:58

I got stuck in a car wash yesterday. They fixed it and then it broke down again!

I am always shocked when people have beautiful homes but the hand towel in the loo is very grubby shock

I have planted out 35 petunias today

Just when I thought I’d go up and have 40 winks, my d.i.l. rings to ask if I will sit with the little ones for an hour, while she runs an errand ?

The Scrabble God has deserted me and given me nothing but vowels for the last 2 games. Not many 7 letter words in those games ?

Air ambulance has just landed on the beach near our house.
Hope everyone is ok
