Try this. It smells minty but it works. I was very sceptical when I was first told about it but several family members use it now & swear by it.

Thank you, the reviews look great for this. A customer had told me to try White Flower Oil Hoe Hin Pak Fah Yeow....so that's in the post right now, if there's no joy with that then this is next to try!

I didn't realise you were married @Mudgie.

Does your partner like real ales as well?

Oh yes, I met her in the Anchor 33 years ago this month but she doesn't partake of alcohol from one year to the next.

I only drink twice a year,
When it's Christmas

And when it's not Christmas......

She doesn't need to. Between yourself & @staffordjas you have her share.

I’ve done a shift at The Gatehouse (Met) for Snow Play.

On the way home I stopped off at Aldi to do Howard’s shopping (96 year old next door neighbour.)

Then this afternoon I decorated 2 cakes that I’d made previously, they had both already had marzipan and icing on, just needed to be decorated. One sponge for son‘s girlfriends birthday tomorrow and one fruit for their Christmas.
Took 2 hours longer than I thought it would.

Then I made some mushroom soup for tomorrow and now I’m having a glass of wine.

I’m not a professional cake baker so I’m quite proud of my efforts.

 

[Trumpet]

Looks very professional, you've got talent.

 

[Carole]

Looks very professional, you've got talent.

Thank you, but not exactly professional, the icing isn’t smooth and there are other defects but it’s just a hobby to me and the actual cakes taste nice, it’s the decorating that I need more practice with.

I basically just bought different coloured icing and some leaf and flower cutters, a rose maker and try my best.

People usually appreciate the effort .

 

[Trumpet]

Well it looks pretty impressive to me.

A fleeting visit to Sainsburys this morning, I like a particular corduroy trouser they sell and bought them in two other colours. Going full geography teacher. I dont get over that side of town too much these days but it struck me how civilised Sainsburys is compared to the other supermarkets.

Off to another zumba christmas lunch in Droitwich. My 2 mates that normally drive me for days out to places aren't going to this one , so it's out into the unknown by myself . Had the streetview man walking what looks like a straight forward 'can't get lost' route as never been in Droitwich direction. Just hoping I'm not diverted off my planned route for any reason , as google maps is trying to take me out into the windy lanes of the sticks reckoning that's the best route so not using that.....

Got to work extra hard at the exercises these next 2 weeks to be able to still get my holiday clothes on, got another 2 'after zumba tea & cakes' next week . Did 2 aqua sessions as well as the gym (and walking the 4 miles there & back) yesterday to get the calorie bank into a deficit to counter all this partying . (although it's a diet coke today with driving , the ciders may come later if we go out..... )
