sarah704 - 2012-11-03 23:34:00

Edited by shell156 at 10:27 am, Sun 4 Nov

shell156 - 2012-11-04 10:27:00

Oh Shell sorry to read you have no more Marmite, I still have half a little hard, but we really don't eat it. It's not really a Dutch spread, had not seen it until I came to NZ. Must say I love peanut butter.
Thanks for the cuppa

skippie1 - 2012-11-04 10:40:00

I'm hooooome! The swimming was awesome. Good for the skin too...and not even a noticeable rise in the sea when I got in!!
Had a good weekend so far? We have...

jumbobon - 2012-11-04 13:22:00

Global warming causes the rise in the sea, they say, now we now the truth.

skippie1 - 2012-11-04 14:14:00

Hi ALL
Just got back from spending the day with daughter 2 for her 40th birthday.
Had a lovely day and a nice roast lunch so just toast for dinner tonite.
pleased you enjoyed the swimming jumbo. heheeeeee
Have a great evening all

dilligaf_dah - 2012-11-04 17:11:00

I have never once surfed, naked or otherwise. It wouldn't be seemly for Cinderella to do something as uncouth as that.

The oldest Ugly Sister may have though...

drommy - 2012-11-04 18:28:00

**Happy Birthday** to your daughter Dilli, sounds like you had a lovely day.
Good you are home Jumbo your shed would've missed you
Shell our #1 daughter put a med size marmite in trademe for $1 reserve and got $30 for it, there was lots listed at the time i havent looked lately but people would be getting even more desperate for it now. the factory was sposed to be back working in july / aug so i thought, dont know whats happening.

coalrange1 - 2012-11-04 19:29:00

Happy birthday to Dilly's daughter no 2. Sounds like you had fun.
Oh I better treasure my small jar of marmite.
What is everyone crafting tonight?

skippie1 - 2012-11-04 19:49:00

not crafting here, been working on draws today tho.
blobbing now ...

coalrange1 - 2012-11-04 20:29:00

I guess i will just have to wait for my marmite or get vegemite instead..
Happy birthday to dillis daughter..
I have been hand quilting this arvo. Bang bangs going off again tonight, my doggy is right beside me..
