Clever Grand Children

Grandmother heard one of her 3 grandchildren say the "B" word. She asked which one of you swore? The Pretty 11yr old stepped forward smiling it was me.
Nanny- That's not a very nice word and I don't want to hear that again from you.
Grandaughter - But Grandad said, there's plenty of other words in the vocabulary you can use.
And I found it in the Dictionary.

I thought it was brillant for a 11yr old, who looks like an angel.

shopping experience

Went to the polling station about 11am. Not very busy at all. I didn't vote BNP. Then I went shopping came home put away my shopping. Then I checked my bill to my horror I was charged for 44 yogurts instead of 4. So I had to go back , see the Store Manager and get a refund of £10.80 who was very efficent. So I will always check my bill in future before I leave the Store.
I spent the rest of the day in the garden which I enjoy.

Drunken Prunes

What am I doing looking up this recipe. Serves (16) Prep time 10 mins, Total time 169 hours.

So you invite 16 people your best friends the ones that you love best. You get a bag of stoned prunes divide them into two jars , fill them half way up the jar. Then you add your best brandy, seal and put in the fridge for a week for the fruit to swell.

Arrange a party. Make sure your guests leave asap after eating them. Because you could have 16 queing for your loo at the same time.

This recipe meets these guidelines

Low calorie, Sat Fat free, Cholesterol free, Sodium Free, Heart Healthy. Healthy weight. Enjoy.

Welcome to my blog

Hello,

My name is Margaret. My daughter, Karen, has persuaded me to start a blog. Everybody is doing it apparently!

I will be writing mostly about my artwork, though I have lots of other interests too. I find my artwork a challenge as I am a beginner.
I began painting and drawing in November 07 when I joined a part time art class which was held once a week.
Here is one of my first efforts. I hope you enjoy it! Have a look at his paws. Have you ever seen anything like this before. Not all cats look like this. So don't be scared.






Please leave a comment, and I will show you my next picture!
I am also signed up to Twitter now. So you can follow me there @createdineire
