  1. Anyone remember Courage the Cowardly Dog (from the same era)? Scared me to death when the kids were watching it but they seemed to love it! It was so dark.
  2. Bless her. It's people like her I would invite to my virtual dinner party. I bet she has some fantastic stories to tell. RIP
  3. Haven't watched a "grown up" film in years. When I babysit g/daughter I let her choose a dvd. If it's The Greatest Showman I think "please kill me now" although her interpretation of the relationship with the trapeze lady is sweet. She explains very carefully to me that in the olden days black skinny-ed people and white skinny-ed people weren't allowed to hold hands. My top four are Sing (Taaron Egerton's version of I'm Still Standing better than the original), Tangled (Mother Knows Best is excellent), Alladin and Coco.
  4. Love this. Very well cast. I watch on iplayer so thank god I can skip the annoying songs
  5. Took my granddaughter to see Santa yesterday (the real one obviously) at the garden centre. £12 and £3 for every adult accompanying her!!!
  6. Your call is important to us and we will answer it when one of our operators becomes available ?
  7. ...............and don't let me catch you here come next snowfall
  8. If you're complaining about the heat and you complained about the snow then there's one hell of a slap coming your way
  9. We haven't gone that far yet with the staff books but all the kids books and toys have gone from the waiting room for the same reason sadly.
  10. Where I work we have 45-50 staff. Those of us who read always bring in the good ones and leave them in the staff room for others to take and recycle. Luckily many of us are crime readers so there's always a good selection. I have Amazon Prime which offers a good selection of free downloads every month and have joined a few libraries across the UK for e-books. If you join more than just your local library you get more chance of getting the most popular books. They are easy to download and you get 21 days to read a book all for free. I got the latest Jo Nesbo from the library while it was still in hardback on the shelves in the supermarkets!
  11. I've read all the Harry Hole books and never been disappointed. Outside of the Hole series The Son is a great book
  12. Which makes me appreciate this forum so much. On such occasions I can come here and hide which I will be doing next month to avoid the wedding
  13. Been trying to advise mine on this. Have said about keeping distance and only touching brake lightly. Should you steer out of a skid? I've never done it ??
  14. I was relaying this to my daughter today as my mum's second husband always had a glass or two of whisky in the evening which mum served with a small jug of water. Back then I thought it would taste pretty horrid with water but reading the above it now makes sense. My daughter was asking if having it on the rocks would be the same or would the ice just ruin it?
  15. My daughter applied for job seekers a month or so ago. I have waited outside for her on three occasions and each time she has come out in tears. I know it's a c rappy job and they probably have to put up with a lot but do they have to be so nasty to everyone. Do they think people enjoy having to go to the food bank to feed their children?
  16. I had lasagna in Venice in 1995 and never found anything close since. It was divine.
  17. My son has bought me a pair of Jimmy Choo's!! I have no one to boast to so please tell your other halfs so I can feel smug
  18. Son has told me I'm not allowed to buy any more tester pots. I now have 10 that all looked palest blue in the shop but are shriekingly loud blue on the wall
  19. Try working with nurses on that subject. We have a kitchen/sitting room to eat our lunch in but I'm b*gg8r*d if I'm gonna sit there just to have some staff nurse make loud scathing remarks like "don't you need some carbs with that?!". Like you I have also had people making retching noises as I open a can of pilchards. I eat at my desk now................COMMENT FREE AND CARB FREE
  20. Went to Morrisons cafe with daughter who is vegetarian. Daughter: Omelette meal please Cashier: Sorry we haven't got any omelettes today D: Oh err what other vege options are there? C: Salad, jacket potato, egg, chips and beans? D: What? Wait you have eggs then?! C: Yes D: So why can't I have an omelette? C: We don't have any omelettes. D: So I'll have eggs, chips and beans and can the eggs be mixed up in a bowl before they are cooked? C: No the chef is not allowed to do that. The omelettes are brought in from an outside company. You can only have fried egg. WTAF
  21. Several things have happened recently where I've realised stuff has been thrown out which I now regret. I feel for you it's flipping horrible.
