I have just invited them in for some Scrumpy.

They said........"We don't mind if we do!"

They have removed their coats. ;-)

When I make apple sauce or apple pie, I cook the apples in cider.

Scrumpylicious!

No generation has found life terribly easy without some physical or mental stimulant.

I'll give you my answer after the EU Referendum. I will surely have my instructions from herself by then. Meanwhile, I’m allowed tea or coffee. Oh joy! :-|

Buy four litres of apple juice from the supermarket, put it in a dimijon with a sachet of cider yeast, fit an airlock, put in a warm place and in a couple of weeks you will have some reasonable cider.

Well, I put on weight - during the menopause :-(


BUT, as I've stayed the exact same weight for the past 10 years, come binge eating or violent vomiting & the rest, I presume I'll stay this weight, until my body decides to make me heavier. I'm not 'overweight' yet!!
From the age of 20, when I was 7 stone, (and underweight) until I was 50, I put on a stone a decade with no positive help from me :-D :-D
I will continue to drink my weak red wine in the evenings - the kidney doc said it was good for my lonely kidney (she wasn't bothered about my liver) :-0, and, during times when my doc insisted I SHOULD be anaemic - I wasn't (which I put down to the plonk).

Besides which, photos of elderly lady ancestors show a tendency to become barrels on legs - and my g x 4 grandfather was (allegedly) the heaviest man in England at the time of his death, (that's him in my avatar) and you can't fight the genes!!.

When I go out, I drink ale. Preference is porter :-D :-D

Yes, I'm a real 'class act' - dark beer & roll ups :-D :-D :-D

Given up the pipe, snuff and chewing baccy then Maggie?

maggiewinchester Report 25 May 2016 20:47

Yes Bob, the snot caused by the snuff blocked my keyboard, and I can no longer spit the chewing baccy as far as my fireplace - the cats kept sticking to the carpet :-(

Never much liked pipes - they're not very feminine :-D
