Army Thread Friday 8th November

Morning Tipps, Reccie and DTD, I'm up waaaay too early. Not at work today and had planned a lie in but the brain wasn't being in it, woke up at 5.45 as usual and the brain decided to get into overdrive immediately so decided to get up, have started laundry, sorted the dishwasher and applied yet more oven cleaner, that delight is my morning treat on my day off

Planning on making the Christmas cakes (for other people, I hate the stuff) this weekend which involves buying alcohol, the first in almost a year feel ok about this as I loathe that dark sickly sherry I soak the fruit in but reckon my OH might freak out a bit when he sees it because much as I hated it I would drink it if it was all there was in the house.

Morning Spidey, at least the brain works:H:H Have a look at the good bad habit link Tips posted - the last one especially!

I use a similar sherry to make the most divine chilli sherry: pop a few red chillies in a wide-mouthed jar, let stand for a week or three and then use in whatever you want - stews, soups, marinades. The longer it stands the hotter it gets. [Insert Shake head at boozy recipe on a site for drunks smiley here]

Now then...........good morning Tipperoooo, Dreamydooo, Reccybear, Chickadee, Spidysylve, Pinkles, Mollymoo.

Can't make lunch with my Aunt today so just had a luvverly mega phone call. She won't be abvle to make it next week either as she's baby sitting a friend's dog....or so she thinks................it's a cunning plan me and my cousin have thought up. The dog actually needs re-homing............so it may be a very long weekend. Luckily she adores dogs.

She's still very much the recluse since my Uncle died so this will get her out and about.

Molls, the dicky tummy is behaving itself this morning. PTL

I love your cunning plan Jackie! There can be few better ways of getting a person out and about than owning a dog, as I am finding every day. Amy gets taken to loads of places to be socialised, but in reality I'm being socialised every bit as much as she is.

Glad your insides are in better shape today

Gawd - whatever's going on at work molly? You must be very fed up with something or other to be organising a walkout. Bet you wouldn't have done THAT a couple of years ago.

Dreamydo and chickadee - one of you needs to get an avatar cos I keep confusing the two of you, especially when you post one after the other!

Just having 5 minutes...........in my wisdom decided to make a curry and a bacon hot pot on top of the little bits for Ma an Pa in law.

Reccy, it's amazing how many new people we know because of Bess. Haven't got a clue what they're called we just know them as the bloke who walks the two Jack Russells or she's the one with the ancient Yorkie.

Yep time to avatart Dreamy and Chicky.

There must be something brewing in the barracks: JC with the ragged nails is making brilliantly devious plans, Molly with the painted nails is involved in dirty workplace intrigues, Reccie - without an avatar, may I add - is advocating the use of avatars?
Anon-a-whizz seems to be her usual self.

Do you know, I find it easier to recognise the dogs than the people sometimes, Jackie.
