  1. Have you seen the latest KFC advert in the style of Jamie Oliver - yeah, right - http://www.kfc.co.uk/about-kfc/fresh-food/!
  2. It is a little known fact that sometimes, just sometimes, only a BLT will do!
  3. I was bullied at school. I found out much later it was because I was the youngest so a good target. Revenge was sweet. I told a girfriend who knew the bully and was having her and her brand new husband to dinner. She was appalled when I told her how I was bullied and said she would do something aout it and she did! She sweetly said to bully at the posh dinner party table "you knew Frances at school didn't you?" and bully admitted she did, so girlfriend added "and you bullied her something rotten, didn't you?". Apparently the bully disintegrated before her new husband and entire table under the floorboards with shame and had to admit to being a complete cowbag in front of everyone! It was very satisfying. Apparently new husband left looking at his wife through different eyes. (God, I wished I'd been a fly on the wall then!). So that is what I do. When I trip over the bullies in my adult life, I let it be known they were bullies at school - it does the trick and I feel karma comes into play too!
  4. Mackeral quiche and beetroot with everything, my kids told me!
  5. Well if you are trying to get off these islands at the end of June, book now, coz the boat was full (as in no more cabins) on the dates we wanted - we are having to go a day early! And we thought we were being efficient booking early! Hmmmm.
  6. Hmmmm..... do you think Sumburgh airport will be too light? (just by Arrivals)
  7. Stoopid question - can they play in daylight or does the room have to be darkened for the images to be seen?
  8. Does anyone know where I can find/hire/beg/borrow or steal a DVD projector for one month?
  9. The Gods smiled on me (for a change!). I was due to go down (L-A) on Wednesday night and while they were "will we, won't we" decisions being made, I looked on Flibble website and booked flights instead. It cost me £40 more (coz I had to hire a car at t'other end) but I think, having potentially been on the Wednesday night boat down and last night's back, it was £40 well spent! My back would have been even more knackered if I had endured 12-14 hours rolling around in that swell twice! But credit, where credit is due, Northlink gave me back my money in full which is more than Flibble will, or any other airline for that matter, knowing damn well they sell on the seat! So back home, reading the diaries of folk who travelled, I am glad it was not me! And I hope someone made good use of my cabins!
  10. Well done! Congratulations to you all!
  11. Ah yes, gill nets. I didn't know they were illegal but still know of folk who may have used them, perhaps allegedly, sort of!
  12. Tut tut Frances, hunting with dogs?! Please note as of February 2005 hunting with dogs within (England, Scotland & Wales) is banned with the exception of RATS & RABBITS which are still legal quarry. Flushing to gun is still legal using dogs. The main exemptions under the Act are ratting and rabbiting, stalking and flushing out with no more than two dogs, and the use of a dog below ground to protect birds kept for shooting. So, yup, get the terriers in!
  13. No, you go in with the terriers and have some fun!
  14. It was the thought of another feasibility study that did it, you know!
  15. Are they new? I have never heard of one. How long have they been about? Who qualifies to be one? Where do they go to learn about everything, say, welding, for example? Sorry for the questions, but tbh, this is a completely new job title in my small world.

  17. I think what we all really need is a feasibility study!
  18. What is an an adult training or learning practitioner?
  19. I know, they ought to do a feasibility study!
  20. Take care and best wishes Frances x
  21. I feel another feasibility study coming along!
