My turn to clean the church so went yesterday afternoon to do that and also help with flower decorating ....we put lilies in at Easter. I can't do flower arranging so I was the trainee..... passing things and tidying up.

We went to church this morning for the Easter service then came back and sat down with our computer and diarys to plan our holidays for the year.

We don't really do much for Easter in our house, it's never been seen as a big celebration like Christmas. Husband and I had agreed not to buy each other an egg..he's diabetic and I'm on a diet.
He presented me this morning with a gorgeous gift from "Hotel Chocolate"
Instead of being grateful, we had a minor tiff where I not only accused him of being duplicitous but of wasting money.
I did however apologise later for being a miserable ungrateful cow.


Just cooked salmon side, new Jersey royals, hollandaise sauce, green beans.

Sitting down now with a glass of fizz and looking forward to watching "line of duty" later.

I wish I'd read to the end of the thread. I've just spent a few minutes looking for the difference too. :lorks:

And me :D


After going to put it on last night to go out in, and failing to find it, spent all day today turning the house upside down looking for my missing new top .....vanished into thin air! How can a top on a coathanger in my wardrobe go missing out of the house :?: :q::mystery:

(Thought I may have packed it in with sons clothes by mistake when I took him back to uni the other day, but he swears he's had a good look in his wardrobe twice and not got it there :strange: )

No more hiding places to look, even looked in the car and bins in my desperation :mystery:

Had a text in the early hours from my friend. Her Mum was being rushed to hospital with a heart attack could I keep her company via text as she was freaking out?Neither my friends brother or husband had gone to the hospital with her (a bit odd if you ask me but not my business) It was 5am when things settled down enough for me to get some sleep and I was updated at 9. I did offer to go be with her but she assured me just being on the other end of a text was enough. I'm just glad I could be there for her. I'm feeling a bit weird due to sleep deprivation now though lol.

Unless her husband was staying home because of kids he sounds like a tool. The brother much more so, no excuse to not go and see your mum if something like that happened. I can't think of anything that would stop me rushing to see her, it could be your last time.

I noticed a while ago that I hadn't seen an old friend of mine for some time, probably about eighteen months. He would be around 80ish, I suspect, and, so I trawled the Newsletter obituaries for his quite unusual name - finding an entry from about a year ago. It was from a time when I was out of the country, so I decided that it was probably reasonable that nobody had told me. His circle are not internet/mobile phone people.

I realised the other day that I still have a spare key for the SARH flat that he lived in. It seemed reasonable that the new occupant should have it, if the locks were unchanged.

I called in just now and, not being 100% sure which key it was, I rang the bell, so that I wasn't caught checking keys in the lock by the new occupant, that would be just my luck....

He answered the door, fitter and healthier than he has been for years.

Just found out the restaurant where we are being taken out for our first night in Germany with hubbys german work colleagues. Going to have to be using lots of google translate to work out what I'm having before we get there :o....a massive menu and despite passing my German exams many moons ago, now failing to recognise many words on it at all ( the only words which actually translate on the English translation option of the website are 'menu', 'beer' and ' booking' .....:D )

Going to be fun if I arrive with my english version and the menu has changed from the one the website advertises :D

Well, could explain why I'm struggling ......the first item on the menu I've stuck in , google translate detects as Norwegian :hmm:
