Morning Fraser - I wish I could get 7 days off from work but we are so busy at the moment that it just isn't possible. Took 2 off last week and having to work bloody hard to catch up, plus ridiculous deadlines again this month - wish the boss would take the start of a month off and not the end!!

Jan, yes, my lemon curd bird, Fingers - sorry, Gwyneth - and I announced it last Tuesday on her birthday. No date set yet but no need to rush out and buy a hat, unless we win the lottery!!

Boaty - checked online yesterday, the Saturday Kitchen from last weekend with Carol is available on I-player

[waterboatman]

jan I'm too polite to say that! nose grows!

[janbee]

I was only in Athens for a long weekend as it was a friend's 75th birthday. I hadn't intended to go but they sent me an airline ticket so I felt obliged. I've been to Athens a million times over the years but can't say I like it in the summer.

[waterboatman]

Thanks mate. I will have a wee squinty when I get back from the canal.

[fraser]

i wished I didn't have the time off, iam actually glad to be goin back!! iam mad???

[janbee]

My niece is called Gwynneth(2 "N" s). My love and best wishes to you both. I hope she intends to keep you in the lemon curd style to which you've now become accustomed?

[WELSHYORKIE]

Morning Beej -

[waterboatman]

fraser that's an obligatory requirement to be on here! that's why we all feel at home! :o}

[WELSHYORKIE]

Jan, that's kind of you - and yes she gets me supplies when I run low as there is a supplier not more than 100 yards from her place!
Fraser - no you're not mad, i'm the same after a few days off - more than a week and i'd be climbing the walls. Workaholic the other half calls me!!

[fraser]

that's alright then, waterboatman, as long iam not the only mad one!! probably why iam fitting in well!!!!!!!

[lady-janine]
