yep, i'm feeling really great at the moment, still can't believe we are actually here. Container arrives tomorrow so glad about that it's a pain trying to cook with the bare essentials to be honest - we've borrowed some bits from friends. missing my blender like mad - how sad is that


thanks for the drink, have you tried Bundeburg rum is it as good as the jamaican stuff. i love a good rum and coke

Nope...never heard of it...try it and tell me

That's good.....we never shipped anything, and so had to start from scratch...and always kept finding I needed something...might be as simple as a sieve....after I'd cooked rice

oh yes we had that problem: friends lent us a pan that has the handles on the side, no lid either, so i have to try and drain, rice and pasta without a lid or sieve, OH went out and got a sieve the other day, it's slightly larger than a tea strainer

A big tea strainer by any chance ??

could well be, may need a large sized mug though

I know some big mugs

come to think of it so do I

i'm not even missing PG tips - weaned myself off of them ages before I left

I used to drink Tescos own...and now drink Nerada tea ..support the local tea-growers....and I don't like it strong anyway...I'm a wimp..

haven't tried that one, drinking liptons decaf, but it's not strong enough for me, so may have to try another, whats dilmah like

think that is meant to be stronger...but being told that...I've not tried it

I'm more of a Darjeeling than a Assam...if you get my drift..?

yep
gonna go soon as the boys start school tomorrow and I need to be alert in the morning, they've been off school for 3 months - thank god they are back tomorrow. youngest is really excited about the start, eldest is a bit more reserved - poor thing he's worried about the friend aspect, tried to tell him 100s of times that everything will be okay, but their little old minds work over time

Ohh, bless ...they'll be fine !

Carl works at various schools...and for the most part has found kids friendly and nice ...he'll be right !

well he even got eyed up when we went to get their uniform - he was really embarrased poor love

lol ! Ho old is he?
