Ludicrous!
Why on earth shouldn't I be allowed to buy perfectly legal, antique, kitchenware online?
Murderers have kitchens too!

Washing Day
Oh the joy of having three washing machines at your disposal when you get back from holiday. -
Warnings of gales....
Is it sad that I check the shipping forecast before I check the weather forecast?
For the interested the important information is: West or southwest 5 to 7, decreasing 4 or 5 later, moderate or rough, squally showers, good. Oh and it's going to rain all weekend.

"Yes! We Have No Bananas"

The instructors are great, although it´s a bit more difficult than I ( Read more... ) -
My Kitchen Garden

There are lots of little nooks and crannies and everyone just "has a go". In fact the gardeners have been banished. Allegedly they were very bad ( Read more... )
