No garlic though Fi! 😂

The good thing is that there is enough for tomorrow evening too. Just need to change the veg.

Cottage pie, carrots and savoy cabbage. Non-imaginative but very warming and tasty.

That looks amazing, John!

Sounds like a day for pjs and hot chocolate, Lala.

I know what you mean. 🤣

This is my new baby reindeer, and I love him! Isn’t he gorgeous.

Oh Isabel! That is wonderful. You have every right to be proud and pleased.

50 Cent was amazing last night. Looked like he was having a ball. Mary J looked like she was putting in the time ( I love her, a huge fan). 50 was brilliant!

Have just done so too. Thank you

One to watch out for given the better weather we're having:

In 10 percent of drownings, adults are nearby but have no idea the victim is dying. Here’s what to look for. slate.com/technology/2...

How many people with a cramp have time for a wink and a smile at the opponent? #SHAvMUN

Oooooooooh!!

Yep. Agree.

Hah! I am an Ulster fan, but am supporting the Munster lads. Fingers crossed.

Can you imagine?!

Ooooh this URC game is so spicy. #SHAvMUN going to extra time. C’mon Munster!!

I went to a conference in london and at the morning break they provided those really hard individually wrapped cookies. Broke a front tooth, stood and cried in front of colleagues then hotfooted it back home to pay for a very expensive(but never the same) repair. I sympathise with him

Listened to 3 learn to speak Italian lessons on the drive home today. It certainly made the time pass quickly.

You look gorgeous, Lala. Fab smile and freckles, great lippie and those glasses really suit you. 🔥🔥

Yes I agree, he is fab in it- takes a clever man to play the fool. The sets though and some of the acting.

Columbo: you can’t help
watching it even if it it is a bit daft.

Directly from their website. The more expensive seats are on the ground rather than around the sides. Having sat in them I think the view is better around the sides as you are slightly above the row in front of you so not looking at heads. Every opera Ive seen there is amazing at a huge scale

Have been a few years in a row now and had an amazing time. Going slightly later in the season this year as it has been too hot during June-July.

Booked for this year again. Cannot wait.
