April Chitter Chatter - Part 3

[Toulouse 0]

Sitting here mouth wide open... Am listening to the weather forecast...
Seems we are going to have a beautiful weekend (21°C tomorrow)...

Sister invited herself over for a BBQ...
(sigh)

[Wish Fairy 0]

Wow 21 - Hot, hot hot...it's very warm here - even tonight it's warm enough to sit outside (although, we sit outside anyway even if it's not really warm enough - OH is from Scotland after all LOL)

Hope you have a fab BBQ BG

We are off to the pub for a meal out tomorrow - our neighbours invited us.

[Zoonie 0]

Oh but a BBQ will be lovely BG, and yes, our forecast is good too, but it's still so cold at night.

Wish, will send all the TWS, don't worry about it.

Thanks for the Hideeni heads up...was just away chatting about tomorrow with OH, whilst half an eye on Great British Menu - we've decided on Blue Bird on the Kings Road for drinks.

[Toulouse 0]

I'll try to make the best out of it (lots of things happened the last couple of days - don't want to talk about it), but yes, a BBQ is always nice!

Am making Mom a bracelet in the meantime

[Wish Fairy 0]

Am also watching GBM - love it - but missed hald of it, cos I have one eye on the dinner.

I don't really know London that well - we hardly ever go (I hate it LOL)
Lunch sounds good though !


BG - are Belgian BBQ's the same a UK ones, that is

- men ALWAYS do the cooking (and never the preparation or the clearing up)
- Beer, beer and more beer
- Meat, meat and more meat
- everyone makes a salad, but no-one eats it
????

[Toulouse 0]

hehehe Wish : D

- men indeed do the cooking
- we usually drink wine, Dad mostly drinks a beer when he's cooking
- lots and lots and lots.... of meat : D
- we make a salad and on the contrary, we eat it!

(and afterwards there's me sitting near the BBQ because I'm cold AND I'm roasting marshmallows - I love my sweets)

[Wish Fairy 0]

LOL - thanks BG - it's true then, the BBQ transcends all other cultural differences (apart from the salad).

I noticed in OZ that the protein is WAY more important than the carbs - my OH is the same - a plate of meat keeps him happy. I prefer a mixture of protein, carbs and good stuff ............I'm not a huge fan of eating outside, but I do love the social side of it all and the relaxing, lively element !

[Wish Fairy 0]

BTW - I'm so happy to be back in my little zone - here with you two, just before dinner. I've really missed it

[Toulouse 0]

oh the only downside from eating outside, I think, are the insects (and wasps...) or if there's a lot of wind

I don't like much meat, the only things I eat from the BBQ are sausages, lots of chicken (filet, brochette) and bacon - and always ask for a piece of lamb if Dad's having some (such a different taste if it comes from the BBQ)

[Zoonie 0]

will read back - phone

[Toulouse 0]

sorry, was also on the phone - BF calling me (the adventures he had the last couple of days...)

am already having ice cream : D We ate dinner 2 hours ago

[Zoonie 0]

OK back.

Our BBQs don't involve vast quantities of meat - usually perhaps two meats on the grill, say 3 salads and a couple of vegetables, plus some kind of interesting bread - and we eat it all. Usually OH cooks the meat on the grill and we eat in the kitchen with the door open.

We both love London, but are selective about where we go - love the food culture and the general multi cultural buzz. It's just an hour on the train, so it's not a big deal.

[Zoonie 0]

Mr Zoonie is pouring again - please try and keep up you pair...

[Toulouse 0]

We always have way too much meat tbh and special bread as well (we get baguettes, but there's also bread with basil, oregano and so on)

[Zoonie 0]

Oh my life - someone's running the London Marathon on Sunday with an Angle of the North on his back ...he's never going to make it, infact he can only speed walk, grimacing as he goes.

BG do Google images for Angel of the North

[Toulouse 0]

Wow, I just read a bit of Angel of the North on wikipedia - it's huge!

[Wish Fairy 0]

OMG - the real Angel of the North ??

Wow - must google that later!

Gill / BG - I have to get dinner and then I must sleep. If I don't manage to get back have a FAB weekend - it's going to be 21 here too BG ! Hoorah

See you end of next week if I don't make it back !
MWAH / HUGS etc, etc

Say HI to Armell for me if you run into her !

[Toulouse 0]

Good luck with everything Wish and see you next week

(not sure if I'll be here on Friday - depends on how I feel after the surgery, but will drop by to tell you guys how I am)

[Zoonie 0]

Well, he's not running with the REAL AotN on his back - a model obv, but still ridiculously tall (and heavy by the look)

Enjoy your weekend Wish, and make sure to rest.

I also have to finish off dinner, it's not long before it'll be ready.

Will try and look in later x

She ran out of meds and had to wait about 4 days till payday(today) to get them refilled ..She is spending the night tonight with an old friend , and tomorrow with another friend ... has to go back to work Sunday ... She is coming to see me in a couple of weeks ..

[mindyjoy 0]

I saw some new fish today, like a rainbow fish? Do you know what bait is used for the new fish?

[mindyjoy 0]

ooooh, hopefully she got her meds.

I hope you didn't change your siggy because of what I said!!! *embarrassed*

[TanyaRC 0]

I have 77 pages in my chest ....

if you go to each individual tab, the #'s are .. 2, 11, 12, 9, and 6 .... That does not make 77 ???

oh no ... it was beyond time ..... everytime that I saw it I thought it needed changing .. Like I said, I left it for the contest for a while, but *** shhhh ... don't tell *** they are not very good sometimes about their contests ....

[mindyjoy 0]

Hmm, maybe the page numbers have something to do with the tabbed sections? Let me look at mine ...

[mindyjoy 0]

My page numbers are normal???

[TanyaRC 0]

so if you add up the individual tabs, you get the same # as you have in the ALL tab??

[mindyjoy 0]

OH, I didn't understand ... let me look again

[mindyjoy 0]

2, 14, 12, 7, 7 = 42

hmmm

[mindyjoy 0]

I just noticed that all my holiday stuff and hideeni stuff isnt under any of the category tabs

[TanyaRC 0]

it is crazy ....

[mindyjoy 0]

There needs to be a holiday tab

[TanyaRC 0]

I agree .... what got me curious is that i was looking for something in the hunt, and I couldn't find it in the right tab.... I thought I had lost it ...

[mindyjoy 0]

I'm gonna do some fishing ... brb

[TanyaRC 0]
