OH had some calls to make in the New Forest so I went with him.

Having listened to Jimmy Shand the day before, I thought I would take something to do.

It was not until I was safely ensconced in the car at one of his venues that I realized that the former spanner wielding, beer swilling wild woman had packed herself some knitting and two gardening books.

Not to mention the home made bread sandwiches the home made biscuits made with the home made jam!

All is lost. I am an old fart!

But a nice one :-D <3

Researching:
I am researching the Wotherspoon family from the Old/New Monkland areas of Scotland, some moved to the Leslie and Kelty areas of Fife and I'm having problems linking the Wotherspoon's from Leslie and the Wotherspoon's from Kelty. I am also researching the Clusker family from Co. Meath in Ireland who moved to West Lothian and from there to Fife............"Vita non est vivere sed valere vita est"

Oh no! I haven't become nice as well have I?

Won't be long before I become a dear old soul.

Oh woe.

it is the door frames that cause it, going from one room to another, the frame erases all memory of why you went in there in the first place

And the door of the fridge. You know what you went there for until that light comes on and dazzles you.

Did you take a vacuum flask of tea?

You're probably just as wild (in your head) as ever, but these days you're more organised......... and taking your own food is the way to make sure you'll get something you like, without paying enormous prices for take-away.

Yeah OK, I'm also an old phart, with a subdued wild side. :-D
