I haven't been out much since Wednesday when I went to the big Tesco. I did some painting again on Thursday and listened to some CDs. Actually, because Mum was going out to see the doctor in Burntwood, and would be going...

Max Crisp @sharonelton These are things that he has done. There is even video evidence of it. I’m just looking out for you, as I don’t want you getting too emotionally attached to a man who has such low morals.

Our son is married and lives in Ireland with his wife. Hopefully, he will come out to see us later this year. His wife won’t fly and we’re no longer able to visit them. They don’t have any children. My sister-in-law is in much...

Max Crisp Judy, I read all the comments and replies on this thread, and it’s brought a tear to my eye. You are such a lovely person, it’s a disgrace that your DIL has treated you in this way. Personally I think your son should ignore his wife’s protestations and visit...

Max Crisp Despite my best efforts over the years, the weeds always win over the plants that I bought and planted. Often because the slugs and other beasties love to eat my offerings. I should just leave it to the fit weeds and let them get on with it.

My garden looks like it’s smiling in at me as I watch it from the kitchen window. That’s because just after lunch time it saw rain for the first time in over 2 weeks. And it wasn’t just a warm spot of rain, it was a prolonged...

Max Crisp Cherry blossom is a wonderful sight. We’ve also had very little rain recently here in the N-E of England. There was a slight sprinkling over-night, but not enough to satisfy the gardens. There is more forecast for the week ahead, but no heavy downfalls, which...

Max Crisp I don’t think I’m up to speed with your photo problem. I don’t have any photos backed up locally these days. All mine are in the Google cloud. It’s free up to 15GB, but that includes gmail, and drive, if you use them. Much safer. Do you use this? Other...

Max Crisp @snowy22315 “How is the glass inspired by bamboo?” I was about to say the same thing! I thought she meant it was made out of bamboo that was somehow transparent?

Max Crisp @FourWalls Good choice! Kenny Ball and his Jazzmen were favourites of my dad, so I was “forced’ to listen along to his songs in the 60’s. One song was ok, but when my dad played a whole album, it was too much brass for my liking. Kenny was a great trumpeter,...

Max Crisp @NJChicaa Coincidentally I had swede in my stew. It’s a tough old root vegetable that likes it long and slow. Cheap here most of the year, but it’s a bugger to cut up. Used to be used for lanterns at Halloween when I was a kid. Nowadays, thanks to you...

Max Crisp There aren’t many cooked meals where I don’t include onions, and garlic. Both are a great base for many sauces. Luckily I seem to be immune from the tears associated with chopping onions that many suffer from.

Max Crisp I haven’t been paid anything other than monthly since the late 70’s or maybe early 80’s? When I first started working it was weekly (and very much weakly) in cash. Back then it hardly lasted the week. Then when I was forced to be paid monthly (in...

Max Crisp OK, despite your warning, and against my better judgement, I did click on the link, and of course, once I saw the album cover I had to listen to the tune right to the end. It’s not Kenny Ball, but it’s not bad. Actually, joking...

Max Crisp The title reminds of “Seven Drunken Nights”, by The Dubliners. Obviously it’s nothing like it to listen to. Like @NJChicaa I’m in the “Nope” category here!
