Morning all, just having a lovely bowl of porridge before going off to paint again!I am going to tackle the bedroom today, I love painting in different colours! Change of idea for bathroom, how does silver bamboo sound on the tinted pint wall?
Morning, I just had a lovely fresh croissant, now going to get a coffee.

I'll wait a while for my coffee, I'm goldilocks'd and full of porridge now! Coffee tastes funny after porridge!
Porridge tastes funny all the time ;o) hee hee

Just nipped into town and back, lunch is on, Roast Pork Forestiere - pork stuffed with a mushroom and sausagemeat stuffing, with roast potatoes, broccoli and peas. Pork was half price, I got some veal to make a nice blanquette de veau for tommorrow half price too!Lol all I went in for was dog food, pain au raisin, peach squash drink and croissants!
Everyone knows you always get more then what you really needed - lol
Sharon wrote: "Everyone knows you always get more then what you really needed - lol"Yes, though today I did better than usual, I didn't have Sophie telling me she really needed stuff too, cheaper that way!
The meat was a bargain, though I would never have paid 20 Euros for a joint of pork and 400g of veal!
While you are having your pork think of me having my salad ;o)
Sharon wrote: "While you are having your pork think of me having my salad ;o)"I will, I promise! Alain just phoned to say we now have a loo, a shower and a posy vanity unit with a huge mirror above it! So this afternoon I may be stencilling silver grass onto my nice virgin pink walls before starting painting the walls red and Grey in the bedroom!
Very nice. ALl coming along now. Don't forget to take some pics.
Hi ladies. About 2000 words into my anthology story 'The Clearing' (I know, very cliche horror title!) Almost done with it, I hope there is no minimum wc!
If anyone would like to offer feedback when it is done let me know ;-)
Hi Tony.Snap, I am about 2000 words in as well. No there is no minimum amount. Would love to give you some feed back when it is finished. You have my email address.

Morning Tony, how are you? We've done the food discussion today, so if you're on grapes again you're safe! I, however, am being tormented by the equisite aroma of roasting pork! Yum, yum, piggy's bum!
Lol you have time to do another two or three stories! Though writing short stories are hard for me, I prefer the long, hard slog of a novel... I must be mental!
Sharon wrote: "LOL - Pork is my favourite!"Well if it tastes as good as it smells I will be happy! Sophie will be happy too, roast spuds and stuffed pork are her favourite!
I just had my roast pork dinner, no contest! Lol I couldn't eat salad at the moment anyway, not while my tum is still fragile! disastrous consequences! Off to paint now, have a nice weekend everyone!
Sharon wrote: "And you"I just sat and finished my coffee and while I was at it I translated the recipe I'm sending it through now.
Bye
Sharon wrote: "Ok thank you."Should be with you now.
What a great Friday, home already. Cleaned out my guinea pig and now having a cup of tea.
Tony wrote: "Evening!"Morning, I am so glad it's Sunday! I get a day off from painting doors and walls!

Tony wrote: "Is it Mother's Day there too?"No, it's in May, same as Eva, Alain has been off playing palets and I have been relaxing in front of the television. Only because I couldn't get near my computer - Sophie was hogging it! Need a second computer!

Morning all!Sharon, I have emailed the story to you.
Morning all, I have got it Tony, will read it later today and get back to you. Mine unfortunately is still halfway through. I've had an idea and need to change some of my story hopefully for the better.
Morning all!sorry about yesterday, had to rush my baby girl to the hospital, she had a high temperature and wasn't drinking or eating anything. She just woke up just now and sh's devouring her cocopops.
@Tony there's no rugby here, it's all football, football and more football. My sn is obsessed with Messi.
she's ok, just needs a lot of hugs. shes drinking which is important. she had a couple of spoons of cereal but no more.
Did they say what was wrong with her?
Sharon wrote: "Did they say what was wrong with her?"A chest infection but because she's been swalowing the flem her stomach is covered with it. Her throat is all swollen and she gags everything she drinks or eats, thats why she was sick. As well as that she has the runs.
Oh dear, I hope she feels better soon. It's horrible when your child is ill, you feel so helpless.
The snow is falling thick and fast here.
