Hubby at home today with our daughter, he just sent me a pic of her in the garden

We are 20 minutes drive from Botany.... we just go through Whitford and we're there.
I just sold a house in Deeping St James which is South Lincs.... 8 miles north of Peterborough... we have a town house in Yaxley which is tween the A1 and Peterborough. All our family live in or around Peterborough. Whereabouts were you?

We'll have to meet up sometime if you'd like - seeing as we are not far away from each other.
From a small town called Soham. (Actually I'm sure you've heard of it). Both hubby and I were born and brought up there and never moved away until now. I used to work in Ely for the Bishop and as Yaxley is in the Ely Diocese we had quite a lot of contact with people in Yaxley. Small world, eh?

Re: Boring question about suet
I still miss my family but I have to say that Yaxley just cant compare to Beachlands.... we lived on the busy London Road and the traffic was a constant noise all day... here its lovely and peaceful and I can walk to the beach in less than 10 minutes. The sea is clear here not like the dingey water at Sunny Hunny or Skeggy. I miss my family bigtime but we feel safer here and feel its a nicer place to bring up our littlun and the ever growing "bump"... its just whats best for us at this stage in our lives.

I used to use Atora at home. Ta for your help. Sarah
I had such a good laugh when I first read this thread (sorry!
) In Canada suet is something that we hang outside in the winter months for the birds to eat.I had never heard of it being used for baking before. Learn something every day!
Sent karma for hijacking your thread!

Sarah that yellow bucket with the lip on it looks liek a proper UK horse water bucket. Have you noticed they feed and water their animals out of teh strangest things here (and in Oz) usually old Resene paint buckets.
