  1. Great quiz Zapp 🙂 I would say photo two is P&O,never been near a miller& carter but had that chip basket on the Ventura .
  2. Sorry for your loss and as said a difficult time for you . All the best take care .
  3. We are having a great time today and hope you all are . Glad all that Christmas shopping's now over .I hate going supermarket shopping looking for gifts .The Mrs asked me how much should we spend on a bottle of wine ? I'm no expert but does half an hour sound reasonable ?🤔 Hope you got all got the gifts you wanted, I got my missus one of those sports bras that helps women play sports. Complete waste of money, she's still rubbish at snooker. Did I tell you I have a talent where I can see inside wrapped presents ... It's a gift. As a gift I was sent a Travel Lodge advent calendar.... Still got all the chocolates in it as you can?t open the windows. Christmas memories ,looking back What to get dads for Christmas? When we as kids begin to discuss what to get him for Christmas. Some would say a shirt; others a pair of socks, and the argument would go on for days but always ended with a tie.🙃 Just had an amazing Christmas dinner of turkey and beef and yorkshire and all the trimmings.Followed by ice cream with crushed cookies and a chocolate yoghurt (low sugar) . Mrs K has done us proud as always . That was a wonderful Christmas dinner , Afterwards Mrs K said Leave the TV off and lets play games instead but she said "I had to go into our kitchen and clear the table first ." Regret to say I didn't make it over the table and now turkey ,sprouts and a few broken plates are now strewn all over the floor . Silly game if you ask me ! 😉 Hope your all having a great day .🙂
  4. ------------------------- It's 9.c here today at the moment . Have a good day guys and our thoughts go to @Host Sharon who is in hospital. Take care everyone
  5. Sorry to read some of you are not too well and hope you all recover soon. Sad to read this morning a cruise ship flight due back to Manchester hit an air pocket and had to do an emergency landing . Some passengers were injured and taken to hospital. https://bnnbreaking.com/breaking-news/accidents/maleth-aero-flight-1975-makes-emergency-landing-due-to-severe-turbulence/#:~:text=Maleth Aero Flight 1975 Makes Emergency Landing due to Severe Turbulence&text=A UK-bound flight%2C Maleth,route from Barbados to Manchester.
  6. I know Phil ,I'm a member of that club but didn't like mentioning it for those who have not joined us yet 😉
  7. Our pub had fancy dress last night, so I went to the pub dressed as a tennis ball I got served straight away. My mates Mrs who was drunk asked me what I thought of her dancing ?. I told her it was just staggering.🙃 Not long to the shops closing but don't panic .For those last minute gifts there is always the petrol station with gifts such as firelighters and hazard triangles at very reasonable prices .😉 Hope everyone's starting to have a good time and relax a little.soon . Mrs K is in our kitchen prepping some of tomorrows dinner . Soon to settle down and watch Home Alone 2. Have a good evening guys !
  8. Dickens " A Christmas carol" was originally published in two local newspapers. It was the Bicester times, it was the Worcester times...🙃
  9. Morning we have 10.c but a bit breezy again this morning . The Mrs was on a forum for our area and a couple of folk who were using the Iceland delivery slots were fuming . Three had been informed they have been delivered when they hadn't and one woman was told "sorry about that but we have no slots left to re deliver "🥵 Hope you have all got your shopping in without any bother as I guess the shops will be a bit manic today . I've just got one of them Humpty Dumpty toys from Aldi for my granddaughter. It's brilliant.It comes with Aldi King's horse's and Aldi King's men A bloke was pulled for trying to leave Aldi with a turkey he had not paid for but the security guy was onto him sharpish and asked him " what are you doing with the turkey sir ? "Roasts ,sprouts and stuffing and gravy " was the reply 😉 Have a good day ! 😃
  10. Their site says "a handful " I tried Bradford ,Heathrow ,London theatre area among others https://www.mcdonalds.com/gb/en-gb/help/faq/is-mcdonald-s-open-on-christmas-day.html
  11. Oh she was there alright ...In your hearts and in your minds and memories and yes she would be proud of those kids... Hope you all have a good Christmas !
  12. The web site says "A handful may open " but when you check them out ,I was having trouble finding one open on Christmas day . It wasn't for me ,I was asking for a friend who likes gazing out to sea 🤣🤣
  13. Lots of birthdays around the 25th ,which tells me that the TV must be crap in March? Hope you all have a good birthday as well as Christmas . Spare a thought for those who have to work the festive period ...
  14. Morning it's 9.c and the high winds have settled down somewhat. I know your expecting a joke about retired pensioners but non of them work. Being retired is a good job and you know your doing it right when all the days seem to merge ,so much fun you ask yourself "what day is it ?" Good news for those who dislike dark mornings .. It's getting a bit more light from today 😃 Have a good day 🙂
  15. Is it me ? am I missing something ? 🤔 Just seen an advert on TV for a furniture shop. They are having a Boxing Day sale which they say must not be missed and starts tomorrow 22nd ?? Has someone moved Boxing Day to other side of Christmas 🤔
  16. I keep seeing posts with words like " I guess" and " I think " even "not sure " The above is not a dig at anyone but if in doubt then speak out ,to your insurer . As posted not all have same cover as other policy's . We had a query with ours and the company was happy to help . So when on our last cruise, we had no nasty surprises when we needed to talk to our insurance and claim handler who were brilliant and once they had our medical records and expense bill ,we were given a settlement which was in our bank 4 days later .
  17. First and foremost as Eddie said do what feels right for you . Your feelings are understandable with what you have been through the last few weeks. Years ago Mrs K's dad died on Christmas day , a few years on her mum the week before Christmas, The way she tackled it was thinking of what the departed loved ones would want . We know they loved Christmas, so we put the tree up for them as much as us .🙂 Yet again ,you do what feels right for you and your hubby - Take care 🙂
  18. As nurse Becket said you take care and get well soon .We look forward to updates from you once your on the mend . Best wishes 🙂
