It's going to get worse you know. 9 & 7? Bloody luxury!

One of mine (the renegade) has gone off to Kitchener with his girlfriend's family. They seem to be under the misapprehension that he's human.

T'other one is indulging in a plethora of pints with his local mates from High School ... I expect he'll come back one day.

Mrs C. has crashed early under the strain of all this holiday stuff.

It's just me and my laptop.

Oh mine as I type are in their rooms.....son has his new MP3 on, daughter is screaming through the wall at him, his limited knowledge of the songs is driving her nuts and her MP3 is not charged yet. She is 'well' pi**ed off.

I love my kid's dearly, but sometimes I wish I had bought a dog!!


Hubby has gone to work....lucky sod, so in the not too distant future I will be going to bed with Horatio (CSI Miami) or Jack Bauer (24) ...either will do, I am easily pleased !

Hi, all, from 80 miles south of the Canadian border. Morwenna, I found this thread on a Google because I'm trying to get information on your Peanut Pourer. I know the original box has a number and the item is from Taiwan and of fairly recent origin but the date you received yours would be the only time reference I've been able to find. I suspect it's from a Dollar Store or mass merchandiser like Walmart. Thanks.

How bizarre! Who would have thought my peanut pourer was a sought-after item!

Well it was bought in the UK .... possibly in Wales, can't think that far back!

I have it in the original box. It is black with a white line drawing of the peanut pourer. It is made in Taiwan, and the number on the box is G Z49A, if that is of interest. The thing itself is made of quite thin glass, so we kept the box to keep it safely.

Perhaps I should sell it on ebay!!!

Hi, HWP ~ well Morwenna did say her friends are poor. There's one at eBay that didn't sell with a $5 opener. Don't know why the link icon posts a double link, I'll do it this way. Item 250200531977 or

Oh well, maybe I'll hang onto it for a while then!

I'm really curious to know why you were Googling them in the first place!

I'm Googling it to get info for someone who thinks it's worth a lot of money and thinks it's that overworked-word "vintage", so I'd still appreciate the date you received it.
