As requested, a place for us to ask for help and advice from other stitchers and to show the things we make.
Over to you.:-D

They look like the sort of thing hubby likes merlin, mind you, if it's sweet, he likes it.  I was going to give captainbovines cupcakes a try this week, so I guess I'll be doing those flapjacks too. I was making a bread and butter pudding when you mentioned them and that gave me an idea.  I put a jar of mincemeat in it as well as the fruit.  He hasn't tried it yet, but I'll let you know what he thinks.

[****merlin*****]

oh myyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy

that looks delicious!!

i bet it smells heavenly!

[chickengrandma-2008]

It does smell nice, almost makes me wish I liked it!:^O

It does smell nice, almost makes me wish I liked it!:^O

See if I don't like things ........... I don't make them :^O

Is off back out now to brave the wind ...

.... decisions decisions, a 30min walk or do i go in the car ?

[ilove2patch]

A whole jar?!!! 😮

[chickengrandma-2008]

Yes.:|

That is the domed lid of a chicken casserole, it's pretty big.?:|

Anyway, he'll eat it, he knows he won't get anything else if he doesn't!]:)

[cat-knitter]

Has a domed lid just like that 🙂

Well I have just got back home, I was good & walked :8}

didn't expect to have to wait 40mins for our app, but never mind somethings can't be helped.

Suppose I ought to be finding something for tea now  .............. but I need a sit down :^O

Morning:-D

VERY quiet on here last night wasn't it:-(

We had some rain overnight but hopefully it will brighten up later, Master B is like a caged animal when he can't go out and if I have to watch BMX Bandits again I think I may self-harm:|

[****merlin*****]

morning!

wet here too

and dark for a change:^O

tis rubbish when they cant get out during the holidays

we had a big shed when they were young

and another almost the same but with windows for them

we put bench seats in it and they would go out there

somedays there would be 12 of them in there,

never any bother and a few pizzas in the oven and they were happy

remembers the days of watching dvds over and over again though

thats why we have so many tvs, so they could alll watch what they wanted to and i didnt!

Matilda was Lollys BMX bandits:_|

[huggles1253]

Morning! I'm home. 🙂

[****merlin*****]

Huggly one!

did you have a good time?

have you got a tan?

have you got any white bits?:^O

no 2nd thoughts, dont answer the last one!

[*hippyfairy*]

Morning

Wet here 😞

Good news - plastercast is gone 🙂 Replaced by a removeable moonboot for the next 6 weeks. Leg needs lots of physio to get the movement and strength back. Had a chat with the physio yesterday and they say recovery is 6 months from date of accident - so I should be back to 'normal' by March!

Short term goal is walking wearing normal shoes and without crutches by Christmas!

[numptz2012]

what's 'normal':8}

Good news tho Hippy:-D

*sprays aftersun at Huggles*

Hellooooo Oh orange one:-D

[****merlin*****]

well thast good news Hippy

ist it?

seems a long time though:-(

see when you have a plaster cast on

does your leg hair still grow?

has visions when they take it off!:^O:_|

[huggles1253]

Yes I have a tan. 🙂 Unfortunately I also have a husband with concussion. :_| He bent down to put rubbish in the bin at the hotel & cracked his head on the towel rail. Two cuts on forehead. Then when we boarded the plane the man ahead on the steps swung his bag over his shoulder & hit poor OH on the forehead again! Different place, more blood!

He's been sick all night & looks like he's been in a car crash. :_| I'm leaving him in bed & going to work. Big son is home to check up on him. Doctor? No of course he won't!

[numptz2012]

:^O:8}Sorry Huggles, I know it's not funny.

I'm always doin stuff like that:8}

I brained myself on the fridge the other week:| Jeez it hurt:_|:^O

[ilove2patch]

Not laughing here either.:| :8}

[chickengrandma-2008]

Morning ladies.:-D  Rain overnight but dry now, just dull.  The wind has died down and it's still mild.

Welcome back huggles, glad you had a good time, your poor hubby has been going through the wars recently hasn't he?:-(

Hippy, the friend with the leg, he took his moonboot off for the last three weeks and started to use the foot/leg gently.  When he went back after the full six weeks he didn't need physio at all because he'd excersised it while walking on it.

Was that everybody?  I can't remember now!X-(

[*hippyfairy*]

Oh poor MrHuggles - one head bump is bad but two 😞

Merlin - oh yes, leg hair does grow 😉 Very satisfying to remove it carefully when I had my bath 🙂

CG - boot is to be worn till I've started physio and they'll then direct how much wearing I do. Hopefully I'll be able to walk without it soon but not taking any chances.

That bath was just blissful - could have spent all day in there 🙂

[****merlin*****]

must be like looking down on someone elses leg Hippy!

poor Mr Huggles

😞

have to say, i would be taking this as an ideal opportunity to get the doctor into to see him

wont do any harm to have a good once over, and you can use this as a perfect excuse

you could have a wee word with the doctor when he gets there before he sees him
