I think that the frog would croak, Kathryn, and you use the batter to get the toad into the hole. You batter it until it complies with your wishes :-P :-D :-D

What's a frog's favourite footwear?.........Open toad sandals :-D :-D

Now that's what I called being toad :-D

Did you manage to rescue the onions from prison Allan?

Must have been a bit dicey ;-)

Yes, Kathryn, we did, but the way we did it was enough to make you cry. We ran rings around the prison staff :-P :-D :-D

So many layers to you Allan...

Yep And that shallot about onion jokes, unless others leek out :-P :-D :-D :-D

Dear Allan and All

Hello

I decided to learn crochet............I didn't realise how difficult it is!

Hope that's bland enough. :-D


Take gentle care all
Love Elizabeth, EOS

I haven't managed to master crochet, either :-(

Hello Maggie,

Its really complicated, especially at corners with the extra stitches needed.

A very patient friend of mine is trying to teach me.........I think she is getting exasperated at latest piece! :-S

Take gentle care
Best wishes

Hello Elizabeth,

OH is quite good at crocheting. She did try to teach me on a few occasions, together with knitting.

Alas, I'm not very good, or patient, with practical things so I confine myself to those activities which do not call for such attributes :-D

I managed a circle - then went back to French knitting! :-D

:-D :-D :-D

So whilst trying to teach you if their patience runs out might it b
e death by crochet hook?

I don't know, I'll have to refer to the Thread Snatcher's thread, although I'm fairly sure that knitting needles were involved in that murder ;-) :-D :-D

I knew a doctor once who wasn't very good :-(

You could tell from the way his patients ran out :-D :-D :-D

Ah Allan ,,,, :-D ... I have a hat you can borrow if you like...it has appreciated written on it...then you'll always be underappreciated whenever you wear it :-D :-D

:-D :-D :-D

Oh blimey is it safe to be on this thread and have your head above the ramparts....getting a bit dodgy out there?? :-)

Death by crochet hook! :-D :-D

:-D :-D :-D@Caroline

I do hope that I'm not underappreciated this morning. Off soon to do a charity sausage sizzle.....nothing unusual about that, rather bland in fact. :-\

Except, I was going to do the first shift from 07.00 to 10.00, then changed to an afternoon shift at someone's request due to his family situation.

All very noble so far :-D

Except, I was to take some stuff in for the commencement of the event which has been in our fridge/freezer. So now I'm going in at 06.00 to the lodge hall, no one will be at the site of the event until 0.7.00, to drop my stuff off, help with a few preparations there,and hang around until 07.00 so that I can drop off supplies before heading home :-|

Oh yes, on the way in I also have to pick up some bags of ice.

Why we need ice I have no idea. In fact why we need sausages I have no idea.

The weather is atrocious and a series of active cold fronts have moved across the south west all week. Very strong winds and heavy rain yesterday and the same forecast today, with a soupcon of thunderstorms added for good measure :-|

There are times when I find it very hard to be charitable :-D :-D

No lie-in, then Allan, but a very long day :-(
