It's very good!
Highly recommend!

one_step_closer 02-07-2023 07:59 PM

It was an exciting Casualty episode.

I hope your psych appointment goes well, Beckie. Talk as much as you need! I hope you have a good week overall.

What snacks do you have, NP? I shockingly got out of bed last night after just getting in and put some garlic bread in the oven to eat!

Cacoethes 02-07-2023 08:04 PM

It's with a random psych so they may let me talk, they may be one to shut me up and kick me out after 5 mins! We shall see!
Thank you!

Garlic bread is ALWAYS a good snack!

nonperson 02-07-2023 08:09 PM

Garlic bread is so good! Or garlic doughballs. Or those ciabatta garlic bread slices with cheese on top.

I don't have any good snacks, sadly. Unless liquid ones count.

I've been going down children's slides and climbing and crawling around a playground all afternoon though so I need a tasty dinner now to recover.

Cacoethes 02-07-2023 08:12 PM

Oh god don't mention the doughballs!!!! XD

What are your dinner plans np?

nonperson 02-07-2023 08:18 PM

I had to, sorry!

I'm not sure. Was gonna have curry but I'm not feeling it so probably a variety of potato items from the freezer.

Cacoethes 02-07-2023 08:24 PM

You evil, evil person :tongue2:

Variety of potato items is always a good shout tbh

nonperson 02-07-2023 08:27 PM

I don't have any doughballs though so I'm being evil to myself as well. =(

Cacoethes 02-07-2023 08:36 PM

Well. Sucks to be us XD

nonperson 02-07-2023 08:47 PM

It really does :crying:

Way to bring the mood down...

Cacoethes 02-07-2023 09:05 PM

You started it!!
You knew mentioning garlic doughballs is a sore spot XD

nonperson 02-07-2023 09:11 PM

I did not. How can someone (LINDSAY) mention garlic bread without the conversation automatically going to doughballs?!

Don't whine about it. Get yourself to an M&S =P

Cacoethes 03-07-2023 06:19 AM

But they're so expensive! And m&s is so far away :'(

Morning everyone!

tamobhuuta 03-07-2023 10:07 AM

Morning, how are you?

Cacoethes 03-07-2023 10:19 AM

Morning!
Lack of sleep has finally made me snap and now I'm that kinda weird overtired XD

How are you?

tamobhuuta 03-07-2023 10:45 AM

Oh dear :( would a nap be an option?

I am ok. Quiet day ahead so I'm in tracky bums :)

Cacoethes 03-07-2023 10:46 AM

Nope! Has to be REALLY bad to nap!
And I'm too wired.
Also, work. Lol

Hope you enjoy it! I hate quiet days lol

one_step_closer 03-07-2023 12:34 PM

Oops, apologies for my insensitivity in mentioning garlic bread last night and the distress it caused!

That doesn't sound good, Beckie. Poor you. I hope your psych appointment and work go ok.

I had to change into my joggers today after getting my jeans soaked in very heavy rain earlier. Hope you enjoy your quiet day, Tamo.

I have a phone appointment with the work coach/whatever they're called from the job centre since I'm in the middle of applying for UC. Don't know what to expect. Hope it's not hard or scary.

tamobhuuta 03-07-2023 12:58 PM

Thinking of people with appointments. I hope they are helpful and not scarey!

not_so_insig 03-07-2023 01:15 PM

Hello all. I had amazon but the delivery man left it propped against the door to my block of flats. Not on the doormat or even tried to ring the doorbell/tried the trade button. Annoyingly I was in at the time it's only the fact that I went looking straight away as soon as it said delivered that I found it.

I am also expecting tesco and yodel. The tesco shopping order is mainly food for my cat (the most expensive item on there) and a few other things. The yodel item is clothes.

Oh and starting Thursday for 9 days I won't be around as much. I don't want to say what is happening on a public forum but it's nothing bad. I am not going IP or anything like that. Just didn't want to worry people in case they didn't see me posting.

tamobhuuta 03-07-2023 01:43 PM

Best wishes for whatever it is insig.

not_so_insig 03-07-2023 01:56 PM

Thanks tamobhuuta.

one_step_closer 03-07-2023 03:20 PM

Sometimes the delivery people are not so good. I'm glad you were in when they left the parcel, Dawn. What clothes are you getting? We'll miss you not being around as much!

How is everyone's day going?

not_so_insig 03-07-2023 03:46 PM

Mt clothes and tesco shopping order came. My clothes are some knickers, pyjama bottoms, tshirt and shirt. I hope that the tshirt fits (yet to try it on) as it has a cat on it.

Eta: this is the tshirt

one_step_closer 03-07-2023 04:00 PM

That is a really cool t-shirt. Hope it fits.

not_so_insig 03-07-2023 04:02 PM

Thanks Lindsay.

tamobhuuta 03-07-2023 04:04 PM

Aw that's cute.

not_so_insig 03-07-2023 04:15 PM

Thanks tamobhuuta.

Cacoethes 03-07-2023 04:47 PM

Heyooo

not_so_insig 03-07-2023 04:55 PM

How are you feeling now Beckie? Saw your r/v.

Cacoethes 03-07-2023 05:10 PM

I'm feeling better thank you!
Just tired

How are you?

one_step_closer 03-07-2023 05:34 PM

I hope you are looking after yourself, Beckie.

Cacoethes 03-07-2023 05:36 PM

I am indeed!
Headache has almost completely gone thanks to paracetamol and ibuprofen.
Honestly never had a Headache like it!

one_step_closer 03-07-2023 06:09 PM

Do you think you need to mention what happened to a GP or someone?

long road 03-07-2023 06:10 PM

Evening!

I have spent the afternoon drawing a card for my parents ruby wedding anniversary. I meant to make it and post if on Saturday but forgot. So now just have to hope first class post is really first class and it gets there tomorrow before they ge tbqck from holiday. (Anniversary was Sunday but they are on holiday in Europe).

Sending love to all. I am watching Buffy the vampire slayer as just discovere fits avaliable on Disney plus which we get free courtesy of a family member sharing their account.

one_step_closer 03-07-2023 06:14 PM

Oh wow, you can draw? That's a lovely thing to do. Fingers crossed it gets to them on time.

I just can't get into Buffy! Sending love back to you.

long road 03-07-2023 06:28 PM

I am reasonable at drawing. I got a B in GCSE Art and everything! I draw or make cards for family birthdays most of the time rather than buy them. I like to put the thought and effort into it.

I have watched Buffy a few times before although I don't think I have ever got past first few seasons. Apart from catching odd episodes back in the day on BBC2

Cacoethes 03-07-2023 06:28 PM

Nah. Getting a gp appointment is too much effort.

That's lovely jen!

I never got into buffy either.
Had the buffy top trumps though, when they were all the rage!

Think I'm gonna head out to aldi.
Nearly out of piggo veggies!

long road 03-07-2023 06:44 PM

Will you get anything for yourself as well as for the piggos? Beckie deserves treats!

Also be careful walking about having fainted and all that. Fainting in the street would not be a mood.

tamobhuuta 03-07-2023 07:07 PM

Hope you're OK Cacoethes.

Cacoethes 03-07-2023 07:13 PM

Nah. Don't wanna budget for treats. Not for myself anyway XD

I am back and it was fine!
Would have been quicker but self service wasn't open and only 2 tills open :eyeroll:

I'm ok thanks tamo!

not_so_insig 03-07-2023 07:38 PM

Glad you were ok Beckie.

not_so_insig 03-07-2023 07:43 PM

My sinuses hurt. I think it's my hay-fever as the pollen count is very high according to Google. I had an massive sneezing attack before.

long road 03-07-2023 07:43 PM

I will shelf that conversation for another time Beckie. But you still deserve treats and if that means budgeting for them so be it!

Glad you got back safe.

I am just waiting for dinner to finish cooking, I am having sausage and root veg stovie.

Cacoethes 03-07-2023 07:54 PM

Thanks Dawn

I assume you've taken antihistamines?

I do have treats! Just not food related ones!

That always sounds so delicious when you say you're making it!
I'm sure my mum used to do something similar

one_step_closer 03-07-2023 08:18 PM

See if you don't properly look after yourself the way you look after your fluffies I will march over there and, emm, I'm not sure what I'll do next but I will figure it out on the way there!

Hay fever is horrible. I hope you get a break from it soon, Dawn.

Have you enjoyed your dinner yet, Jen?

Cacoethes 03-07-2023 08:47 PM

You'll have about 12 hours on public transport to figure out what you're going to do, because that's how long it takes apparently XD

long road 03-07-2023 08:52 PM

It was good. Although not as good as usual because we couldn't get our usual sausages. I am happy I rediscovered the recipe.

You could poke her with a stick Lindsay?

Cacoethes 03-07-2023 08:56 PM

Glad it was good jen!

Would have to be a record breaking length stick for that distance!

long road 03-07-2023 09:10 PM

It's a super sticky stick. The stick 6000

But I was more thinking she could poke you with a stick when she arrived at yours
