Rare P&O SUE Posted June 17, 2021 #22558 Share Posted June 17, 2021 Evening all, another couple of busy days here. It’s been so uncomfortably hot here last few days but strangely I’m sleeping ok! I can’t decide if it’s my heart medication or my hay fever tablets ( bad for me too this week.) Yesterday was the hottest day of the year. John was on his rota day off and of course being Wednesday we had Joshua. I was thankful for the air conditioned car rather than the bus! We took him to Minster first thing which is a pebble beach but he loved throwing the scenes into the water. We only stayed about an hour as there was no breeze at all!! So hot. Looking after a two year old in that heat was very draining. We were asked to bring him back and stay for dinner which was lovely but hot!! I read him a story and he took himself off to bed, we were all waiting to see him come back out as it was about half an hour earlier than normal. After 20 minutes we thought oh well he’s obviously gone to sleep and went home! So we were with him from about 9am to 6.30pm Phew! Today I found out he slept right through, his room gets very warm and they said he hadn’t slept well for days! Good old nanny and grandad 😁 I’m not sure who was more worn out yesterday, me , John or Joshua 😁 Then today my sister and BiL came up from Worthing for lunch with my mum and dad ( I was working til 1pm) then came over to us for a couple of hours so that was lovely. I hadn’t seen her for over a year! 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have 9 days off of childcare ahead of me, lots of jobs to get done but browsing on-line wins 😊 Hubby and I are off to the Isle of Wight next week for a few nights, due to go from Portsmouth, but we got a text from Wight Link yesterday to say our 3:40pm sailing had been moved to 11:40pm due to one of the ferries being out of service. We went on to their website so see if there was anything better timewise, website kept crashing and phones were constantly engaged so we ended up booking Red Funnel from Southampton instead and emailing Wight Link asking for a refund. We should see Iona and Britannia in Southampton. It's raining here which is quite nice after the hot weather, the garden needs it. Have a good day everyone. Please let us know how you go and what are the must see's, we are going to the IoW in Sept for a week, it will be our first visit. Hope you enjoy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kalos Posted June 18, 2021 #22568 Share Posted June 18, 2021 Good morning' hope you are all well When it comes to fish and chips I think this is neither the thyme nor the plaice to remark on Grahams choice of a side dish to his fish and chips .if the man wants beans , beans it is . They cannot be that wrong can they , just about every chippie in the land sells beans on their menu don't they ? Fishchips and peas , pie and peas .. wots the beans for ? Way back in the 70's when I was a pup I do remember staggering from pub ,with lads into chippie and being shocked to see baked beans on menu .I was gobsmacked ! Beanz in a chippie ! I was having non of it! That's until one day Mother decided we were having fish fingers , chips and beans for tea , which back then was non negotiable .Eat or don't , that was the menu . I have to say I was surprised how tasty this meal turned out to be . So every now and again I have been known to partake in a pot of beans on my chippie meal . Sometimes I may go mad and buy a chip shop curry with said beans and very nice that was too. To be fair though the good old mushy pea s still dominate as my first choice and some times they get ordered with chicken supreme and a curry . One my favourites is fish chips and peas with a tiny salad as well. The first time I ate that was in Cornwall and when the server brought us the meal I told her "there must be some mistake . we have ordered fish ,chips and peas" She said "we give everyone the salad ." We ate it, we loved it . I'v'e lost count of the things I have had with my fish and chips , Haggis . pie's Yorkshire fishcakes the latter one being two big slices of spud with a slake of fish sandwiched between and fried in batter , if you were wondering . Like I say, eat what takes your fancy with your fish supper as they call it in Scotland . If it's on the menu then it's game on ! Who knows . Fish chips and battered Mars Bar .. Nah even I have my limits . I have ben known to have a few scraps with my chips. Nothing to do with fighting , just old bits of batter from the fryer Who used to buy those pickled eggs that sat on the counter in the big jar ? I have never seen anyone buy them but about one egg a month would disappear Was it you ?? Take care stay safe everyone 7 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yesterday my little part of England was damp, dark and dismal and today doesn't look any better. It's 12c and miserable here at the moment, and set to reach the dizzy heights of a damp14c. 😟 Garden peas for me, cooked with a few sprigs of fresh mint.

Avril I wish I was in Spain or a cruise but stuck in the North East of England and it's probably about 2 weeks since we had any rain which is very unusual weather for us. Maybe we might get some rain in the next day or two. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
