Re: Random stuff - the anything else thread
Broke my last surviving teapot Friday :(. Spent yesterday hauling all over town looking for a replacement. No joy (even in secondhand stores). Lots of glass thingies with “infuser†attachment wotsits, but no ordinary, boring, common or garden teapots.
Silver lining: walked 7 miles without thinking about it/realizing, and it was a lovely sunny day :). |

Forbidden 1508762171-1-313-69524549 I've used two teapots bought in Canada. Both dribble from the spout as you pour so you get spillage. :( ***...oops, silly arse, I still had my vpn activated from watching iPlayer last night. :o:o |

The roof of our house is casting the shadow of a Mosque (dome and turret) on the tall hedgerow at the bottom of our yard.
It looks just like the one a couple of streets away from where I used to live. https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikiped..._-_2566333.jpg |

I can’t remember the last time I had a posh visitor, people around these parts tend to think I’m a bit “posh†because I own teacups & saucers (as well as mugs)! ;). |
Re: Random stuff - the anything else thread
we have just one teacup and saucer, well it's actually a breakfast cup, the rest are all mugs.

Re: Random stuff - the anything else thread
I had some friends who moved to NB in the late 70's, they bought some place out in the bush and I never heard from them again.
Michael, Dee-Dee, Jack, call me. |

Spoiler:
I've been driven to the north on the way down to Montreal. There were stretches as described but large parts of Montreal to Toronto (or was it just to Ottawa?) were mind-numbing.

Re: Random stuff - the anything else thread
NB was not listed as a Province for a few months on one of the larger rental car companies last year..they said it was a printers error...I think they just forgot us.
