I take it back then matey thought you'd slipped to the chintzy side, try soaking them first in old engine oil and petrol to make sure they burn well  :D

:lol:
come to think of it they would come handy,you could lie the rotavator on its side on the cushions so you wouldnt scratch it.this way you could remove the sump plug that is next to the fu-fu valve just next to the under-carriage so you can remove the tinkler spring with no problems at all.chears aunty
saves lying on your back  :wink:

As Richy says tartans were very plain way back.  As more were designed they had to (out on necessity) become more intricate and colourful.

As Richy says tartans were very plain way back.  As more were designed they had to (out on necessity) become more intricate and colourful.
Most clan tartans prevailing today were 'invented' by 19th century mill owners as a marketing ploy.  The wearing of tartan was prohibited after Culloden in 1746 (only about 100 years earlier).  The first exception permitted was wearing regimental tartans in the Scottish regiments.

Originally tartans were somewhat differentiated on a local scale by the dyes which could be made from plants and berries growing in that area - hence the association with a particular clan.

Yeah, he'd really blend into the blooming heather in a kilt made of that  :wink:

Mine is Clan Gunn which looks very similar to the Flower of Scotland tartan.  In point of fact, the Flower of Scotland tartan was an accident.  The mill got a few threads wrong on a production run of Gunn & the company decided to market it rather than throw it away.

A few years ago when "Tracey Island " was the must have Christmas toy, a friend of mine was desperate to find one for her little girl.  Toy shops were all sold out.  

They warned their daughter that they might not be able to find it for her and the sweet child replied "Don't worry about it. Santa's going to get it for me"

No pressure  :shock:

If i weigh the handles down then the tines come up and we can wind lots of balls of wool at the same time,  as for colours maybe citrus lime with summer strawberry blush   i think that would hide the sweat streaks and the odd nicked finger whilst sharpening the hoe.  What do you think Aunty :?:

It's been brought to my attention (thank you Annie) that the Equipment Shed is quite a feature of our forums.  

So I've popped down to have a quick inspection.  Now I know you boys were not really happy with my choice is soft furnishings, but I would like to compliment this weeks Shed tidiers (WG, Munty and Richy) on the re-decorations you've done.  Aunty really likes it so much she's taken a picture  :roll:

At Mannor Garden Allotments (Greenwich olympic site) preparing and eating meals was an importaint part of the community of the site.  When we visited friends in Montreal the allotment site they worked had a communual BBQ every month during the summer,  they took us along to one and it was the best barbie I've ever been too, you can imagine the veg talk  :roll:

So I think installing some facillities in our forum shed is a great idea thanks Munty.  Any one got a nice big old virtual Barbie they can donate.  We can try out all Munty's (and others) recipies.  But I think we'll have to make Shaun eat outside, he's bound to wipe his hands on some so0ft furnishings  :lol:  :roll:

Please leave Tony Blackburn behind though.

Saw the Wurzels at a gig at Bath Racecourse earlier in the year - the marquee was rockin' but the silly gimps at the racecourse ran out of booze at 7.00.

(I was very tempted to nip down me local Somerfield and load up with Blackthorn which was BOGOF at the time, and make a killin')

PS. Cider is trendy again!

and to prevent the difficulties of the other night, when I was asleep, I have nailed this to the door so that aunty knows we all know how to behave when altogether, not that we are planning to get together or anything, but just in case, to keep things sober and sensible at whatever time people should run into each other at the same time and share a drink (non alcoholic of course) together.  :wink:

So there's this bloke with a parrot. And this parrot swears like a trooper. He can swear for 5 minutes straight without repeating himself. Trouble is, the bloke who owns him is a quiet, conservative type, and this bird's foul mouth is driving him crazy.

One day, it gets to be too much, so the guy grabs the bird by the throat, shakes him really hard, and yells, "QUIT IT!". But this just makes the bird mad and he swears more than ever. Then the guy gets mad and says, "OK for you!" and locks the bird in a kitchen cabinet. This really aggravates the bird and he claws and scratches, and when the guy finally lets him out, the bird cuts loose with a stream of invective that would make a veteran sailor blush.

At that point, the guy is so mad that he throws the bird into the freezer. For the first few seconds there is a terrible din. The bird kicks and claws and thrashes. Then it suddenly gets very quiet.

At first the guy just waits, but then he starts to think that the bird may be hurt. After a couple of minutes of silence, he's so worried that he opens up the freezer door. The bird calmly climbs onto the man's out-stretched arm and says, "Awfully sorry about the trouble I gave you. I'll do my best to improve my vocabulary from now on.".

The man is astounded. He can't understand the transformation that has come over the parrot. Then the parrot says, "By the way, pardon me for asking, but what did the chicken do?".

************************************************************

A woman went to a pet shop and immediately spotted a large, beautiful parrot..

There was a sign on the cage that said £50.00.

'Why so little,' she asked the pet store owner.

The owner looked at her and said, 'Look, I should tell you first that this bird used to live in a house of ill repute and sometimes it says some pretty vulgar stuff.'

The woman thought about this, but decided she had to have the bird any way.

She took it home and hung the bird's cage up in her living room and waited for it to say something.

The bird looked around the room, then at her, and said,

'New house, new madam.'

The woman was a bit shocked at the implication, but then thought 'that's really not so bad.'

When her 2 teenage daughters returned from school the bird saw them and said, 'new house, new madam, new girls.'

The girls and the woman were a bit offended but then began to laugh about the situation considering how and where the parrot had been raised.

Moments later, the woman's husband Keith came home from work.

The bird looked at him and said,

'Hi, Keith'

Meanwhile........ back at the shed. (Any more parrot jokes, I suggest we start a thread!).

:shock:

Worzel never told me he was Dr Who  :shock:   What a shock (http://bestsmileys.com/fainting/1.gif)

The Crow Man will be very cross with him.  He pays him to stand in ten acre field, not go gallivanting through time and space.  I give up with him,  I'll have to ration his tea and cake  :roll:

Back to the shed. (Worzel certainly is not the owner  :!: )

Can you see the curtains now Dave ?

Giver them to Shaun - He needs load of wipers to clean all those rotovators of his.

I think a nice little wooden shed with one window and one door will do us.  I don't like that metal scarecrow Dave - really given me the wibblies  :shock:  :wink:

Oh, Sorry Dugless, No you haven't  :!:  Dave had just spooked me with that big metal scarecrow - really scared me  :shock:  

This shed belongs to everyone (and that one is far to big Dave, I said one door one window).  You should have heard some of the parties that have gone on in the shed Dug :roll: It's been burnt down twice  :roll: And Shaun burnt down the Christmas tree too, I don't know how I manage to keep it so clean and tidy.  

Hmmm...  yes I think you're right though Dug, blue would not be quite the right colour, and as you've offered do you think you could paint it in camouflage paint so that Shaun can't see it.  I'd be most grateful  :D  

That's when Dave has found one the right size :wink:

Snap Dragon, that is beautiful but not really big enough for all of us to use.  You can send it round for my garden though  :wink:

Shaun, you have to be joking, that shed is minute  :roll:

Gwiz, I rather like the blue metal shed, we would need to shut one set of shutters though.  If you can insulate it to make it cosy in winter and cool in summer it would be perfect.  Looks a lot cheaper that DD's wooden summer house - Yes, I know it's a summer house and not a shed Dave, you just want to put your feet up don't you :lol:

Now, which forum members live there and can give us an alibi  :lol:  :lol:

We had that at my brother in law's wedding on Sunday.

Then some wine.

Then more wine.

Then they dropped our dinners in the kitchen so we got some complementary wine.

Then the table next to us gave us their wine as they couldn't finish it.

I seem to have missed Sunday evening & gone straight on into Monday.

After all, I did eat about 15 of those scones with jam and clotted cream.  I was lying on the floor, trying to digest them before finishing off the other 5 (would have been rude to leave any, though I do feel a little :pale:  - or perhaps that's just the second glass of wine tonight  :roll: )

I would apologise for not sharing the scones, but I'm not sorry!  They were rather scrummy  :tongue:

3 - Are there any flamable materials incorporated in said structure? Y/N
4 - Are the contents worthless? Y/N
5 - Is it insured for far more than it's value? Y/N

Ah! A week on & the shed's back. Need a wheel clamp I think.

Time to put me feet up & wait for the promised rain on Tuesday, although we do have a weather warning for the next couple of hours, as it's looks a though something small, but nasty is heading this way.

On reflection, I am bonkers.  :roll:

yes mate.
Richy and I got fed up with wiping our feet, and Auntie gets so grumpy if you use her doilies to clean the rotovators. :roll:
I remember the first and last time I ever went that fast. It was on a honda four cylinder motorbike. Just at about that speed, I got a front wheel wobble.
I was quite impressed with my control, as I brought it to a controlled stop.

Indeed but you see tin sweats and builds up humidity inside which is very bad for the polished aluminum and chrome bits! If one has older British iron the time must be spent riding and not polishing! Now fast with class is Vincent, especially the Black Lightning which could claim being the worlds fastest production motorcycle well up into the 70s and long after the original Vincent company ceased to exist. And don't forget the first British invasion at the Bonnyville Salt Flats in Western US. The number desigination, I was told, of a Triumph was how fast the production model ran at Bonnyville such as the T-120 of the 650 or the T-140 of the short-rod 750. The two that I had was the T-120R and the T-140V. Can ya tell I like Triumph? Here is a link for Vincent, I didn't know they revived them! Gotta check that out later!

Ah, but remember Wighty is in the ladies shed which has not been blown up.  We were in there together this evening necking Chardonnay like there was no tomorrow.  Actually, it's all a bit vague. :?   Wonder what happened.  Ooh my aching head. :?

I was sitting very quietly in the corner of the LADIES SHED drinking my my glass of wine and debating the qualities of George Clooney versus Brad Pitt with Ice (a very nice lady) and I now find out I'm being accused of being an arsonist.  I am very upset.  I would not do anything to 'hurt' the shed, I find it a really restful place to come to after dealing the with the 'public' all day long.

Well, Dave wants a wood burning stove put in and Richy would like a fire pit.  Both of those sound a bit dangerous but they assure me that as it's a metal shed it will be quite safe.

The ladies would like a shower fitted so we can freshen up after working on the plot.  Then there's the new curtain rails to put up and a lick of paint all round.  There are 6 rotovators over there which need a clean and service and Rich has just brought a tractor which I think needs polishing coz it's very dirty.

Will that take long  :?:

Actallly, one has two carpets.  8)

One on the floor, where you might expect it to be, and the other over the top of the old Howard rotovator (it's in disguise!!) to keep it out of view from the local burglars!!

The carpets (a kind gift from my elderly parents as they have new "runners" and wanted rid of the old ones) were not large enough to stick over the whole compost heap... so shed floor and rotovator.  ;)

Looks pretty - blue pattern. :)

Just need advice from Auntie about matching curtains....but without the boot sized mud patches. (I'm sure I'd find use for a pair of curtains)....

In a shed there is absolutely no need to match curtains to carpet.  You can be as eclectic as you like and allow your imagination to run riot. I have even been know to team blue floral curtains with a red tartan carpet  :ohmy:

I know it sounds shocking but it really worked  ;) :lol:

Can't we paint it blue with orange windows (eeuw!) like the Gardener's world one 8)
and we could have a what's hot and what's not board like they have. :unsure:
I reckon that tea has gotta be hot...so i've put it on the propogator thingy.
Wine and beer would have to be not hot (but still very popular :lol:)

I've tried to rescue the carpet but someones been using it as weed surpressant and now it's full of couch grass...some people!

Please don't ban football!!  :(

Every now and then it is a great pass-time........ mainly when there's one of those important "everyone must watch it" matches... (cup thingies)..... it is a most fantastic time: The roads are quiet, the gardens are quiet and everyone is indoors watching somebody kick a ball up and down for an hour os so...

It is without a doubt a great sport - the world goes quiet and I can go down to my shed on my bike in peace and quiet and find even more peace there!

So...... let's keep football as once in a while it pays off.  ;)

Have given the rugs a good shake, and put them away till we need them next winter and swept up again! Cuppa time..where's me mug....oi someones put a dirty dibber in it! 
Thinks.....what this shed really needs is a frig to keep the milk (and the beers :D) cool. A big one please, so i can keep my seeds in the bottom, as well...no room in the one at home :(

My shed needs a spring (?) clean.  :(  Not had time  :blink: Perhaps in the summer hols.

It has had a recoat of sweetpeas round the outside plus the end is fitted out for trailing butternut squash... if we get enough summer for butternut to start trailing.  ???

The old shed had a fridge... small but reliable. It was a gas fridge from the late 1950s. My father used it to store chemicals in as it was no longer connected (pre-natural gas).  ::) Heaven knows what they all were as the packets had faded and the labels fallen off when I opened it up a couple of years ago.

The fridge is still on the plot and holds a bag of blood fish & bone meal as well as lime. Not sure I'd want to put drinks in it though.  :unsure:

The rats thought so - that's why it had to go. The wood was good despite its age but the rat family/ies occupying the space underneath had moved in through the floor... nibbling their way up slowly through it all over the place.  :tongue2:

When, eventually, the shed was down and I dug the ground underneath, I discovered two large oil drums that had been used as their home-base!! Delightful, eh?  :wub:

My father tells me that the blacksmith, who had the plot before him, had burried them there as they had been water-butts until they rusted through.

The mess is cleared, the useful wood stored or already in use, the new shed can be glimpsed through the timbers of the old one - [ See photo and look for Green shed - left far corner background] - It is smaller and on a solid slab-base to keep the "visitors" out! 

The nice thing about it was that my dad was quite happy for me to replace the shed despite the fact that it was his and I had helped him put it up around 45 years ago!!

(Not so sentimental as me I guess....   ::) )

The shed was in pretty good condition considering its age (apart from its additional "doors" in the floor ) - Weight of roofing felt and 1987 hurricane had given it a leaning character of its own but only a small one..... Took me many trips to the tip with my bike trailer to dispose of the multi-layered felt roof! 


Title: Re: Just what this shed needs ...
Post by: sunshineband on June 10, 2009, 07:33
I'm sure it did take a long time to dispose of all that  :ohmy: 

Like the idea of a slab floor. .. sound slike a wise precaution.

My Dad has surprised me too in not being quite so sentimental about changing things as I thought he might be ---  even bought a new cooker recently. I did think he would hang on to the old one as him and Mum had had it for years, but no!!

What my shed needs is a complete spring (early summer) clean.

I saw a mouse vanish underneath yesterday!! I'm hoping it was just taking a short cut between the paving stone base and the wooden floor...there's just space for a mouse under there.

I can't be doing with sharing a shed again with anything bigger than a spider  :tongue2: so everything is coming out for a tidy and check.

If there are little visitors they are going to have a present next visit - a mouse trap!!  :happy:

There's a great story about a group of school children who have a new class pet... a hamster.

At play-time the new boy goes on about his "wumpytu" that he has in his pocket and everyone crowds round to see it. One child asks if it has a name - yes "wumpytu".

Is it furry? What's it like?

Pink and yellow...

Lots of disappointed sighs when the new boy takes out of his pocket a sticky paper glued one p chew!

New cushions of course dear  ::)

Now it's funny you should say that..... my wife gave me a square of rug making weavy-stuff and a bag full of rug wool (mixed colours) along with a latch-tool and I have an almost finished mini-square rug. I reckon it would make a perfeck cushion cover for the shed once I persuade someone to show me how to make the inside squishy bit.

If nothing else it'll be handy for lobbing at the pigeons - the bright colours would frighten them off even if my aim is poor!
Title: Re: Just what this shed needs ...
Post by: Rangerkris on February 10, 2010, 06:47
If your going to lob it at the pigeons it dont want to have a soft filling some thing heavy would be better, if you got a good shot you could knock out the pigeons then cook them up in the shed.

Half-term week..... so I can squeeze a bit of time for me.... get ready for the next six week haul, visit family, complete house repairs (why do they break things when I am at work??) and breath in a bit of peace quiet and empty space.... all on my own while letting the rest of the world turn without me pushing just for once.  ;)

Fat chance of doing anything in the shed!  :(
Had plans mapped out for today - ordered the right sort of weather then phone call to work Friday:- dad fell out of bed!  ::) Rushed round at lunch-time and then back to work. Finished at 5 so back to parents place again. So only just arrived home for a snatched 20 minutes peace and quiet before heading back to parents place to make sure they are ok over-night again....  :closedeyes:

Just why would a 95 yr old need a jam sandwich at 1.15 in the middle of the night!  :blink: And then.........say, "Oh be reasonable," as I didn't supply it with the little knife he uses to slice it up before leaving most of it on the plate (Where's me teeth??  ???)

All this after three other calls between 10pm and 1am:- needed the loo, feet too cold, feet too hot - Can we have a drink? Eventually all quiet at 4am so three hours sleep before it was time for porridge!

Worse than kids!!

All this while I dream of being on the plot in the peace of the shed. zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Aunt Sally I am not so keen on the red birck jobs... one seems to have a heck of a drop far too near the front door - anyone with a poor idea of left & right could end up in a heap especially if they had been celebrating before they left the "shed"!

The other red-brick job seems to have a "his & hers" entrance and not enough room to swing a cat (sorry cat lovers!)

My vote goes to the double-door version  ;)

Shall I bring a trowel?

Rotovator racing sounds brilliant... there'll have to be at least two categories though... manned and un-manned to start with then different horse-power. My Howard 200 will toddle off all on its own if I let go of the handles - I often have to catch up with it when I'm on the new 1/2 plot and I've stopped to oik out a bit of wire / glass or string from the soil and it hasn't noticed I've stopped!  ::)

Darts for indoors, hoe-downs near the front-door (we need a covered viewing platform for when it rains) and then cctv monitoring for the big races... "The Rotovator Run".

Specialist hoe sections = onion hoe, draw and dutch hoes - what about a swoes obstacle course?  :)

Quiet moments... small large larder fridge to keep the drinks cool and comfortable cushions on long wooden benches... Hessian covered would be fine - multi-use so ideal for collecting the spuds in later  ;)

Quite agree but... the aim of the activity might influence the acceptablity and level of risk..

Stationary chair feather dusting is down for the ladies... (have I quoted that properly? ???) - A good idea (as one would expect being from you Auntie) someone will need to keep the place in good order so feather-dusting of chairs sounds good - as long as no one is trying to use them to sit on near the large liquid refreshment cooler centre (BAR for short)  :)

Beer tasting? Darts & Hoe Down Competition? TV in with drinks?  Seed catalogue and Special offers evening? Oh...we could have a Pickles Evening when we get back from our night out..  :)

My Pa got one shortly before he died. He never learnt to drive a car, and it that was apparent by the damage he caused his scooter in the short time he was using it!

I kinda felt sorry for the pedestrians...... :nowink:

My dad has one.... not used a lot recently so I get sent out around the block on it to make sure it is in running order & charged  :tongue2:

I wouldn't mind but his is the pavement only version - top speed "limping" (4mph)... if only I could persuade him to trade up  :lol:

If it went faster I would be tempted to motor off into the wilds... It's quite comfortable and very lazy (no pedalling needed - obviously!). One finger for forward and another for reverse - automatic breaking and almost no need to look where you are going at that speed....  ::)

An armchair-style ride  :lol:

Post by: DD. on February 12, 2011, 06:46
Sorry Graham.  Can't you just pick it out, I won't be offened?

Paul -You have to be precise with this.

Standard dough made from 500g white flour with precisely some grated cheese added. Throw in bread machine on dough cycle.

Divide into 12 mini loaf tins and - you have to be exact here again - throw some more grated cheese on top.

Stick in airing cupboard, allow to rise, then fan assisted oven for 10 mins on 200C.

If making wholemeal 400g wholemeal flour, 100g white. Rises much better than just wholemeal alone.

I'm afraid I have some very bad news to report.  Word has just come in over the grapevine that there has been a fatality in the shed.  Further investigation has revealed this to be true.  Please, please, why was it taken so early, before it had a chance to fulfill it's destiny.  The family have requested no flowers.(http://bestsmileys.com/crying/2.gif)

A metal shed is a good idea, Ice.

I think your cabbage plants should be fine if you can dig them out of the ash, DD.  I believe they need a lot of heat at this time of year   ???

I have a nice wicker armchair in my shed.

I have a little camping gas stove in my shed for making tea but my mates almost always up the plot and he's the tea-boy! He has a whole gas bottle thing connected up to his gas oven so unlimited supply of hot water!

Mines a nice cup of Jasmine Earl Grey - no milk or sugar (no pollutants ;) )

Mine's lovely - no fussing or standing / sitting on ceremony. Nicest thing is how warm it is on a cold day.... it grabs the sun and stores it.

Cups? No. Mugs for me. The enamel ones were "borrowed" for my little son's fishing kit so I'm now the proud owner of some melamine none chip, dent or burn ones. Quite posh they are too. (Well better than the jam-jar my dad offered me tea in when I was a kid and turned up at the plot to help!!)  :lol:

Not even if we have an open week and do cream teas, iced drinks and dainty sandywiches? Imagine all the extra revenue!!  8) We could extend the shed, have air conditioning, proper upholstered seats and the very poshest of curtains with the money.

So..... I take it that's a "No".  :(

When did the invites go out? Note to self, now you don't work in a DIY environment doesn't  mean you forget to look at equipment! We've had some good parties in the past, who ended up hogging the loo last time?  ( I am not reading back to find out!)

If the past is an;ything to go by, with Shaun on the door and DD doing the electrics and having seen New shoots flim flam, there's bound to be another fire.  Will this be our fourth or fifth one and will we have to look for yet another shed?  Thank you Ice, just seen your post which interrupted mine!

That is lovely! Is there any chance that I could sneak in, hide in the corner behind the big chair and fall asleep undisturbed for a few hours days break from routine?

Oh well.... just a pipe dream.  :wub:

I had better go off and "do" lunch then sort out the washing mountain.

My grannie would have told you off for doing laundry on a sunday!  and easter sunday to compound the crime.  Tut.  sigh.  (She would be spinning in her grave if she knew all my domestic sins!   ;))

Now where's my easter bonnet with all the bows upon it?  I need it to sit somewhere as posh as this !

Superstitions? My mother has so many it's hard to move.  :lol:  But... the machine did the washing over-night so I hung it out this morning.

Now off to the plot as I'm not needed for a few hours on a Sunday while my sister's crowd visit... although she's on holiday in Devon I'm told.

Off to the shed.  :happy:

Cider, on the other hand, sounds exactly what's needed. If ever I get time I'll be a gathering-up the ton of windfalls and searching for a juice hex-tractor on he-bay.  :tongue2:

I think we could have a small bonfire, Shaun, DD, Richie and Munty don't seem to be around much any more and they were the usual culprits when an 'accident' happened.   Now we don't have to store their rotavators in the shed there's not so much flammable material around.  (Oops forgot Gwiz isn't here either with his questionable drinking habits)!

Was that a rug Aunty? Sorry, I thought that was a doormat!  I should have known, it looked a little too fancy. Also, it is quite large for a doormat.

Look on the bright side, at least I wiped my feet, it's only taken me 65 years to learn.

Snowdrops, I have two bourbons. 'Kentucky Tavern' is more of a fighting bourbon  :wacko:,  we probably want to skip that, it tastes like plastic anyway. I keep it for degreasing the chainsaw and other equipment. 'Redemption High Rye' is a good  bourbon for company  :D, we can share that!

Boiled peanuts???!!!  :ohmy: :ohmy: :ohmy:

But I’ve found a recipe:

https://www.simplyrecipes.com/recipes/boiled_peanuts/

Yes indeed. It is a Southern thing, and especially a Georgia thing. When I first moved to Georgia (1986), it was very common to see roadside set-ups where people had big kettles, boiling them over a wood fire. The peanuts are grown mostly in southern Georgia (President Jimmy Carter was a peanut farmer there). Most of the boiled peanut stands are in north Georgia, closer to the mountains. I was told by locals back then that if the peanuts were not being boiled on-site, by a redneck and his wife, and if either of them had more than three teeth  :ohmy: the boiled peanuts were not authentic  :dry:. 

Regardless, you paid your money, the enterpreneurs scooped a large perforated ladle full of peanuts in-the-shell from the salted water in the pot, drained it, then placed the drained peanuts in a paper bag. (Later years, plastic bag). People eat them while driving, tossing the shells out the window, or sometimes when they got to their destination.

Proper pronunciation is not "boiled peanuts".  Instead you should say "bold peanuts".  Per article in the link, "You used to could get" is a perfectly acceptable Southern phrase. Down here, Southern is capitalized, northern is not, and d@mnyankee is a single word (or at least it used to could be  :tongue2:).

You can still find roadside boiled peanut stands every weekend out in the country, along the roadside.

Can we have some numbers please so that I know how many I  am cooking for - breakfast  is  croissants or bagals, scrambled egg, smoked salmon, horseradish sauce and cream cheese.  MoS has mentioned that if she 'perfects' her Pannetonne, we will have some of that as well.  Please add your name to the list on the cupboard  door.

Well I must admit that Aunty has always admitted when she has eaten what we have stashed away.  I am in the middle of making Stollen bites which are favourites of ours.  The smoked mackeral  pate has also been made. Lidl is the cheapest   place that I've found for part baked rolls and I've got some of them and stashed them in the cupboard.  Aunty doesn't seem to like savoury  so I've put the dessert recipes back in the Christmas box and just concentrating on the savoury.  :D

Don't store it in the shed Yorkie, I've made some desserts and they've  all 'disappeared'.   I love a 'tarte au citroen'.  I may have a small spoonful of cream with it.

Not mean at all... Wighty just doesn't want the stollen to become stolen!  But there's hope it could be SHARED on Christmas!  Maybe even Christmas Eve?

It now looks like one of those children's plastic play houses you can get.  And what happened to Snowy's jars of pickles and chutneys that she put in the cupboard.  I see I am going to be busy tonight and probably all day tomorrow re-writing the lists of shopping requirements, menus for over the festive period and the list of who wants what when. (can we have a hands on hips emoji please).  Also the biscotti in the cupboard all seem to have 'disappeared'.  Do I need to ask where they went or are they now cinders.

Auntie I am getting so annoyed.  Fortunately we don't get the tea urn from the  Cricket Club that I've borrowed to keep you happy.   You haven't answered all the other questions I posed as to where us the cupboard with the biscotti etc.,  in.

I'm just so glad that a lot of what I've made has been hidden around the country, otherwise there would be nothing left.  I do notice that Aunty hasn't answered the question about whether the pickles and chutneys are safe.  :D

She thought my extra peppy rhubarb and chilli chutney was jam  :lol:  I think the rest have been spurned as potentially dangerous, so we are OK there  :D

Apparently a journalist of some sort has been following Aunty (and allegedly, three friends) in pursuit of fruitcake.  Including visits to "she sheds".  Apparently, a dark tale full of woe is involved:

Hmm ... that must be one of the friends.

The shed is a right mess, all the cushions  have been thrown on the floor and there are all those plates of uneaten food on every shelf or level surface!  Can we have a 'clean up' squad here please.  I do notice of a trail of cake crumbs all across the floor.  >:(

Thank goodness we used paper plates, with plastic cutlery - I really didn't fancy doing any washing up...

I see it's been cleaned up and everything is back to normal, are we having some kind of  jumble sale or something as a lot of trestle tables have been set up.  :lol:

Well, since it was such a success, thanks Wighty for pulling it all together when you weren’t well, I thought we’d give New Years Eve a run for its money, picky bits in order & then something later on to soak the ahem booze up do you think? Hope those trestle tables will stand our combined weight  :D

Good idea Snowy.  As I've said before, Paul looks in the 'reduced' cabinet before he buys anything else we need.  I'll make some Blinis tomorrow as we have three packs of smoked salmon at 50p to use up, I have some sour cream left over, so that's my donation.  (We're going to get  a 'there is no cake' comment soon from somebody, but I don't care. :lol:

I’ve just made a vat of soup so I’ll bring that & get himself to make a couple of loaves of bread, that should soak some drink up  :mad:

I always buy too many part baked rolls, so I'll cook them up and they'll go nicely with the soup.  I have a raspberry flan to bring too.

I've been in and taken down the decorations, which to be honest were a     bit ' scant'.  Can we do better next year please.  I've also set up all the trestle tables to hold the seed trays of seeds that should we soon be able to start  planting (obviously after this cold spell they're promising this week.)

Well it wasn't me as we don't grow potatoes.  I'm only just thinking about what tomatoes we want this year.  We've had a couple of bad years with them.  We planted them in  troughs and they didn't ever produce much.

We were looking at a house today in Newchurch so decided to go to the Garlic Farm while we were there.  There  wasn't as much garlic for sale as there usually is, so I've done  five seed trays with cloves which we can share out.  :D
