Hello.Kitty

lol - nearly had a heart attack to see my cakes like that! Glad they went down well!

Saying that, poor Mr Kitty didn't even get any [cakes] this morning! Nor a poxy card for that matter... they're all so rubbish here and for the price, I may as well draw a sickly-sweet teddy surrounded by hearts on a bit of paper and pocket the 40AED myself.

Kittycat - I can't believe you haven't seen the FB page yet. Tut Tut!

Meow- Lucky you!

Hello Kitty- I will have a looksie tonight! They look delicious! I'm back on the diet now though so can only drool at them-I wonder if you can taste them if you lick the screen.... a moment on the lips is a lifetime on the hips and all that!

I woke up with my Mrs today in bed and pulled out a funny card and soppy card from under her pillow. She was over the moon. Didn't expect me to even remember or acknowledge Valentines Day (It is after all a complete sham).

She made me lunch, as simple as it is, it's a brilliant lunch. All my favourites. Probably going to make it into the Top 5 Lunches of all time.

Simple things, little surprise and making sure that you remember you're with someone 365 days a year and not to show it just on one day in February.

Now I'm off to take some man-up pills to reset the balance.

You obviously don't shop at Lulus.

'top 5 lunches' - like that, what was it?

Bahtatboy

McDonalds on warmed plates?

Unfortunately for me it isn't lunch time yet but;

Bacon, cheese and salad sarnies, sausage roll, grapes, banana, bag of sweets (those purple things that should be horrible but the soapy flavour is strangely enjoyable, love hearts, refresher bars and a turkish delight), crisps and bottle of ribena.

It's honestly like being at school again (not that school packed lunches were that long ago for me).

I wish.

My office at the moment is in Lymington, Hampshire. It's about as upper middle class as you can get. Nearest Maccy D's is back near home in Southampton.

Closest thing to fast food here is the Marks and Sparks cafe.

kittycat1

enjoy your sausage roll! not so reaily available out here!

scrubbedexpat141

Don't remind me.

Ordered a fry-up at the hotel when i was there.

Veal bacon and Chicken Sausages. £24.

Nearly cried.

kittycat1

chicken sausages don't count as sausages

kittycat1

and turkey bacon isnt bacon

scrubbedexpat141

Agreed.

Now imagine my disappointment realising this mistake after an overnight flight with no sleep and refusing to eat the shi*e that Branson's lot served as food.

Might be a stupid question, but is bacon or are sausages readily available to buy at supermarkets etc?

kittycat1

Yep spinneys and Waitrose both have pork sections but it isn't as cheap as tescos!

I love going tinto teh pork section at Waitrose Dubai mall- Im fascinated by how much product obviously has piggy in it!

scrubbedexpat141

Good.

Not sure what life is like without Bacon. Must be miserable.

What are you doing for Valentines tonight then Kittycat?
