Yes Narnia I would and I do - I mean I don't flounce round in a ballgown or anything but I'm not really an old T-shirt and leggins kind of girl so, yes I do.

Definitely. But I'd still wear nice shoes.

If I'm on my own I often put on my coolest clothes, open a bottle of whiskey, set up a mirror on the other side of the table and have a mutual appreciation night in with myself.




Its never long before a fight breaks out. The mirror always ends up worse off and I usually get away with a couple of scratches. I used to box you know...

I'm with Giggirl on this one I'm afraid Narnia. I am always dressed to a certain standard, even when I'm alone and not doing much except hanging out with the babies. I always have matching underwear, makeup, jewellery, a nice handbag, and 9 times out of 10 I'm in heels.


It's something you either get or you don't.

I don't get it at all :-$... but if you want to come around dressed up like that .... It may well be my lucky night ;-)

Hmmmm I've just reread my post and it didn't quite come across as I intended! I am actually fully dressed at all times, you understand, I was just poiting out the minimum standards required on any given day. And I will have to respectfully decline your invitation, Mr Dogger.


Flipping cheek.

On a quiet night in Brendan once had a fight with a picture of dorian grey - just because he looked younger. Wife came home and threw the book at him.

Not that dangerously Citizen - it's not original '70s which would be worth ?????? and if I owned one I would be afraid to even breathe on it. Ossie's label has been up and running again for the last few years reproducing his classics at affordable prices. That's great for those who admire the man's talent but it's a shame that Ossie died in a council flat without a penny to his name.

Thank you for asking Karrie, but it's been a bit of a disaster really. A wierd allergic reaction meant that although my whites were whiter than the whitest thing, my eyelids puffed up, resulting in me having to squint to see anything at all. Not a particularly attractive sight.


I didn't fare any better with the extensions. Having purchased said items, I soon realised that sticking them on is not so easy, especially with my puffed-up, swollen lids. At the crucial eye-catching moment, whenever I started to blink furiously to draw attention to their impressive length, they started to droop.


As you can imagine, the vision of me blinking and squinting with my eyelashes drooping did not solicit the sort of reaction I had hoped for.


What a palarva.

    • The Cornish Gouda was featured in an early episode of 'Rick Stein's Cornwall'. It's actually made by a Dutch family who moved here. The series is being repeated on BBC2 at the moment, so it's probably available on the iPlayer. Cheese Block stock a great 'Old Amsterdam' aged Gouda, if you can bring yourself to go in, or M&S do one made with Jersey milk. I've never found the Cheese Block all that grumpy. I think they just get a bit frustrated when it's busy and people don't know what they want. It's not ideal, but I try to go in when it's quiet if I'm undecided, and they're almost friendly. Here's a link to the Rick Stein show. It'll be available soon, apparently.   https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m000qzxr  
    • It’s Mons all the way for us. Super friendly. And they know their customers . They even asked me why I bought so much Comté. LOL. This is the cheese from my area in France  and I eat it without thinking. I LOVE their Fourme  d’Ambert, one of the oldest cheeses in France. Much creamier than Roquefort and much cheaper too. Also love their selection of goats cheese - and the fact that they regularly discount cheeses that have ripened a bit too much, which is how I like my cheese. Been lobbying them to make Fromage Fort, which is a hit like potted cheese. You take old leftover cheeses and ferment them in white wine. If other Burgundians are in the area, please join the lobbying effort.  Heritage cheese used to sell an absolutely amazing Gouda from Cornwall and I really enjoyed this but they’ve stopped selling it.  Can’t comment on Cheese Block - so grumpy in there I’ve stopped going in. Perhaps I’m missing out.       
    • Yes, but I remember it fromages ago.
    • Can anyone please provide Niko's number?
