Well I never! Cosgrove Hall is about 5 miles away from us! I didn't know that Harry Corbett was Harry Ramsden's nephew either!
At first it was much more difficult than I thought it would be; we were both used to running the house the way we wanted (in my case that excluded the aspects my wife ran). But I get on better now with MIL; probably better than my wife does in fact! WARHAWK: what is the animal in your signature; some kind of antelope?
It is a Sable Antelope, it lives in Africa. I love to research Africa , and hunting in Africa.( I think I have mentioned Peter Hathaway Capstick, he was a PH in Africa?.) :common001:
I'm quite a placid person, a nasty temper but a very long fuse. I accepted yesterday that I will never be a size 10/12 again and so ruthlessly went through my wardrobes and sorted out lots of lovely clothes to take to the charity shop. I am a shoe person and also decided that the 3" stilettos were a thing of the past. I found 5 brand new pairs of shoes and lots of things still with the price tags on so thought perhaps my daughter could put all of the new stuff on ebay. It was an exhausting task so I sat to have a quick look at the forum. I could hear Sooty gnawing her bone - Mmmm too young to have a bone - will a very expensive black leather brand new shoe do instead? Calm assertive leader I was not!
Oooooooooooooh she'd have got a good smack for that one from me, if I could move fast enough! Did you manage to catch her?
Yes I was fast enough (which probably surprised her more that my shout) and being a responsible dog owner in these politically correct times, I plead the fifth amendment. I'm sure her dog Mum would have done just the same!
