Army Thread Thursday 31st October

Quiet in the barracks tonight - everybody out tricking/treating? Hiding behind the couches from the little monsters?

Oh no Pink, just realised I made the same mistake Molly made last night: I just assumed you were Mrs Pink. Blushing. What's the story with the poor pink kitty poo, anyway?

Tipps, is there in place in your town that specialises in spices - like an old-fashioned Indian shop with stuff in bins and plastic bowls? Not Oom Samie, everything's wrapped in plastic & cellophane. Only decent place for spices I know of down here is Atlas Trading in town, and I'm not going to do the Great Trek in reverse just for spices.

Almost book in bed time tonight, so nite-nite all

We buy whole spices at Gatesville (in Athlone). Most shops in Stellies also sell packaged stuff.

G'nite Dreamy - see you on the morrow.

I think I'm also headed for bed, folksies. But unlike the virtuous Dreamy, I'll be playing a new game the eldest cub installed on my tablet. Castle Clash - you get to build your own fortified town and attack other people :woot:

Tomorrow should be good. I've been invited to be part of the panel who will set the agenda and evaluate speakers for my favourite annual conference. I get to forget about the routine operarional stuff for a morning and focus on the conceptual for a change . Plus it's being held at one of the better hotels in the V&A Waterfront (one of CT's major attractions) with brekkie and lunch thrown in.

Roll on POETS day!

Going into town tomorrow. Meeting my favourtist Aunt in all the world doubled for lunch and going to buy boots.

Had absolutely no-one knock on the door tonight 'cept the window cleaner and ended up giving him some goodies for his grandkids.
