Re: Happy hour!
In the midst of all this doom and gloom, I’ve decided to post about the things that make you smile, so do join in folks! :D I always have to smile when I see the local squirrels performing their stunts - particularly when they run along the top of my garden fence! They usually stop in the middle an...

Re: How are you keeping one and all?
I am concerned about the members of this forum please give us an update on how you are doing. As my daughter brought me here to Ibiza 2 weeks ago (fortuitously arranged well in advance) I'm in a very happy situation though in Lockdown. When I was in Cardiff I rarely went out or spoke to anyone so l...

Re: Morning All
Gosh didn't even know Boots did kitchen appliances ( I take it that it is Boots the chemist you are talking about ) Your kitchen looks lovely and also very modern looking considering it was fitted 20yrs ago. Apparently Caroline Flack had long term mental health issues along with alcohol problems whi...

Well who would have believed that without men this forum would be lost.....Grandad and Horus have given up the ghost so slowly but surely Egypt4u is dying the same way as Redsea4u did...Do you think this is because we are all of an age when either living or visiting Egypt was a totally different bal...

Re: Where are you all?
I've often thought it a shame that our younger generations don't seem to have the same interest in parents and grandparents memorabilia that we had. There are a host of things in my home that wouldn't make any sense to anyone else but do to me. If only the right questions were asked before it's too...

Re: STATE OPENING OF PARLIAMENT
@LovelyLadyLux Thanks LLL, I confess that I had you in mind when I decided to post it. We see this stuff quite a lot and I think we should keep it going. Why kill old long standing traditions that are respected around the world? As for the crown, that probably is the original. There is a replica in...

Re: A Find
Well white truffles are always eaten raw so you could literally shave it over whatever you decide to cook,ideally shaved with a truffle shaver or you can use a mandoline,but if all else fails just use a veg peeler.Whatever you do with it enjoy it as they are usually expensive to buy.

Re: Oooh! Mrs Durrells!
On the subject of ladies dress I was curious about one aspect seen in the new BBC series 'Gentleman Jack'. At the very start of each episode a woman can be seen getting dressed in all the old fashioned clothing, at one point she is being laced up into a type of corset and then she pushes some sort ...

Re: LOOKING TO THE FUTURE ABOUT THE PAST
