Afternoon


I had a tressy and a sindy - when I left home i left them for my younger sisters to play with - when they'd finished with them my Mum got rid 😞


What a lovely day its been here today - no coat needed and I even wore my pumps without socks 🙂 - no bare legs though, leggings under my skirt.

It's a bit quiet on here tonight.:O  I've just been to the college for a three course meal, some parts were good and some not so good.


There were very tasty canapes, about 4 or five different kinds. Then I had chicken, ginger and lemongrass soup, it tasted ok, couldn't taste any ginger, but it wasn't very hot. Then I had assiette of lamb, which was very tasty but came with chocolate jus :_| which was just like melted chocolate.  I like chocolate but not on my dinner! With the lamb I had new potatoes, carrots, broccoli, cauliflower and french beans.  The lamb was very nice (apart from the chocolate) and the vegetables were just a little too undercooked for my liking.  For pudding I had one of those chocolate sponge puddings with the runny inside (can't remember what it's called) with ice cream and poached pear dipped in chocolate.  That was £15 which wasn't bad.  The whole lot could have been a bit hotter though.  The waiters and waitresses were very good but perhaps a little too eager as we felt a bit rushed. They started taking the empty coffee cups away whilst some of us were still drinking.:-(  I think, by the look of some of them, it was getting past their bedtime. It was 9.30!:^O  All in all an interesting evening.:-D

I've never seen either of those, what sort of thing are they?

Both are US drama series. Bones is based on the books by Kathy Reichs about a forensic pathologist & Greys Anatomy is a hospital drama set in Seatle. My other favourite is True Blood which is about vampires! lol:^O

I love all that gory stuff! I read, when I have time, Clive Barker & Steven King books. Fantasy fiction I suppose you would call it.:-)
