I got a frying pan :roll: from the kids [lol]


They love home made pancakes, when they asked for them recently I mentioned that the pan was loosing its non stick so to ensure they get their supply of home made pancakes............I get a new frying pan. Such thoughtful children. ;)

Yep, it certainly is. At least its been translated into English though. Might give it a shot, see what makes them tick.

Good luck reading the bible didn't help me work out what makes some so called Christians tick :confused

I got a pair of comfy slippers, but was disappointed when the left one was tight -- and I would have to wait to get an exchange.

A little later, I explored the recepticle for my larger foot and found paper stuffed into the toe.
I was blonde as a kid !

I love my sleepsuit..not for sleeping in but for the unexpected up at night things..its too cosy for sleeping in and I found myself (well hubby did) wandering in the middle of the night trying to cool down a bit(I sleepwalk sometimes):eek:
But really comfy and toastie warm!

You MUST get them, the rocket stands about 3' 9" high though I haven't built mine yet. Both are made by Revell, released to celebrate the 40th anniversary of the moon landings.

My OH got a DVD he's been wanting for over 30 years, but could never find a copy of it. (canna find the "smilies" at this point, LOL!) :)

An extremely kind and thoughtful "Orger", on here, burnt a copy for him on Christmas Eve and..............delivered it personally to our door on Christmas Day !

I'd never met this gentleman before, but he drove over 20 miles, in hideous road conditions, on Christmas Day and didn't ask anything for it !!!!!!!!!

I've been calling him "Santa Claus" ever since - how kind and generous is that ?? !!!!!!!!:Razz:Razz

God Bless You !! XX
