Well done Joe - speedy recovery. I met him at the airport and he did not look overweight - tell them to feck off outta that .
FIVE KILO ??
He needs to now eat good protein rich food & build himself up ..... fillet steak all the way

Anyone remember Home Economics - learning how to cook 'invalid food'

[IamMary]

I bought that home economics book a few years back, deirdre madden. My favourite subject! Looking at my daughters book now, there is so much more in it, very science based.

Big regret - painting the skirting boards. I.HATE.THEM!!!

compared to 87 poor souls who haven't seen daylight - literally - for over 12 months..

Seriously Satz, do they have no fresh air at all? Is there a garden there?

Bit of a shock this yesterday.............Mr. JC has bought some new clothes and wonders of wonders they're not gray.

Mr M could not care less what he looks like. Holes in his trousers, stains on his jumper and now with his unruly hair, hes looking more homeless every day. Id settle for grey any day!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY JC!!!!

And that is the best and most fabulous news about Joe. Over and done with at last. What a relief.

On holidays this week and have taken my dark thoughts about my employer to the garden, where they are rapidly dispelling, as they should.

I remember home economics very well. Convalescent foods were mainly eggs and blancmange with jelly from memory. The kids in F class used to amuse themselves by swapping the salt and sugar stores so we rarely had anything turn out. They're probably all CEOs now. They certainly had the psychopathy factor for it.

Right, I'm off back to my begonias.

Morning Army...have just been brought a cuppa in bed....how good it is to be normal;-)
So are you finished in the job Bridge? What happens after your hols?
I've to work a few days next week..get the place ready for return on 4th May...analysing my feelings...totally happy about going back except for micro-manager....she's really spoiling a lovely job...but it's just 'her'. She's not meaning to be bothersome particularly and she's not a bad person...that's what makes it harder...anyway 16 months and I'm gone ...but if she's gone I'll stay longer!
Right...best get up...saving line of duty till we have them all

Morning and waves to the undies,
The only exam I got an A in. Home Economics. Yep, eggs (not fried), blancmange, and for some reason lentil soup for an invalid. I've always found a good curry works wonders.
mollyka.............thought of you last night when I saw this. To be honest I'm surprised how many of our eras are a lot more excited than the young ones.
Mars Helicopter - NASA Mars

The S&A and his age group couldn't give a toss.

amazing -- and tbh - my two older boys are fascinated by it -- think it's the movies where they almost realistically set up communities on Mars -- like under a cover for air and such --- if they offered me a one way ticket to Mars for that first community - I'd be so poxy tempted --- would go in a heartbeat if my family could come too!

Never did Home Ec.. it was that or music -- obviously had to do music

NCT today -- hope it'll be okay -- poor old car getting a bit aged...
