I had something very similar recently Kitty but using smoked haddock. It was delicious!

I had similar – An Amstrad 1512 IBM clone with 512 K of memory an twin floppy drives when I did my Open University course. That was the machine I learnt much of my programming on. In those days, at work, a PC would be the centerpiece of any office and almost be worshipped (or cursed) 😀

It was raining most of the night here too. It should be much better going to mum’s today without the snow.
I need to visit the hairdresser too but, to make things worse, my hairdresser has retired so I need to choose a new one. We have a few locally but none that I would automatically change to. I like to form a good friendship with my hairdresser.

Don’t feel so badly Kitty. All of us have done things we would have done differently. Some of the real bullies in this world are those who never realise that they are. They do things without thinking of the consequence to others.

Very good Kitty, thanks for sharing. The only other thing I would add, that I occasionally use, is nail oil. I am not sure of nail polish over the top. I haven’t tried it but the oil seems very good at the times when my nails are in a poor, dry, cracking condition.

Yesterday it was a bit of a mixture – Breaded haddock with pepperoni pizza and salad. The shop bought pizza had been around a day or two and the oven was on.
Today – Friday – Fish and chips!

The danger in a debit card online Kitty is that, if hacked, the balance can be available to the criminals. With a credit card there is an upper limit so it can only be accessed in smaller bits. There are more guarentees with a credit card too. A sensible way is to have a credit card with accompanying current account so that any payment from the…[Read more]

I know what you mean Kitty and you are right but I see this particular one so often. You are totally justified though in that one of the best ways to spot a scam coming from foreign places (for instance) is that the English spelling and grammar are poor. I do find though that I myself do tend to get a bit dyslexic at times and often post online…[Read more]

My morning has been going slowly this morning as I got up later. I must have been tired as I slept over nine hours. I am usually around eight. I looked out and saw the sleet coming down while making breakfast and was happier when I realised I did not have to go out. There is always much to do indoors though so I won’t have time to be bored :)…[Read more]

I prefer not to be in debt too. Things also get so complicated with cashback or not paying for a period of time, with their tiny clauses which mean that you may easily lose out means I just avoid them unless things are very clear cut, which is seldom. Some things I use, I buy some of the best (eg artist’s quality paints) but as for ‘keeping up…[Read more]

I used to make my own CD’s too when I was travelling a lot and had a CD player in the car. I compiled them from specificsingers / groups or music types.

These sort of things often happen with genuine sites so may not be a scam but you do need to investigate.
Many people accidently spell ‘received’ wrong so that is not so much an issue. I often have to recite the verse ‘I before e except after c’ but there are exceptions which confuse things.
A point to note is that a card transaction may not…[Read more]

Our Chinese only opens at teatimes / evenings in the week so I seldom get any. My main meal is at lunch. I do like them though.
Today, as we have lots of carrots it will be some form of soup, with varius dditional vegetables, herbs and spices.

A usual weekend for me with seeing my mum and shopping. The supermarket and roads were quiet yesterday so this new lockdown is biting. The changes don’t really affect us that much. I suppose it reflects our quiet life?
I presume the forum was offline this weekend as I tried a couple of times with no connection.

My experience of teenage groups are that they can be very nasty at times and girls, although it is less usual, can be far worse than boys. The saddest thig I ever saw, at school, was when a group decided that they did not like the conduct of another in their class so a present in a box wrapped with pretty paper and bows was left on her desk. It…[Read more]

I like Dr Who too. I don’t know if it is me though or that it is getting rather heavy on drama and social points these days rather than being entertaining science fiction. I think that I have said before, I am not keen on heavy dramas. I watch TV for relaxation as there is enough drama in real life. Maybe it has always been that way and I am…[Read more]
