Re: Family Matters
Like Maz I cannot stand clutter, it does not bother hubby but it winds me up. I would not look at houses until I had a firm offer on ours, we lost a lovely house because we had not sold ours.

I think they are the best steaks for tenderness and flavour.
We had slow roasted lamb shoulder, jerseys, cauliflower, carrots & gravy.

Re: HOUSEHOLD TIPS NOT FOUND IN WOMAN'S WEEKLY
Hubby pays £5 pensioners' rate at his barbers. He too. like Cathy, likes a lie in - opposite of Stanley - as hubby too used to get up at unearthly hours so now he is making up for it.

Re: Spring 2017
I love the sun but when this heat comes so suddenly it puts me out.
Regarding 'cast not a clout' - I believe in dressing for the weather, no point sweltering in winter clothes because you cannot 'cast' them. If it comes cold again I will dress accordingly.

As we had our kitchen painted yesterday and there was a smell of paint we went to the Ram Inn at Cliviger for tea. We both had the Scampi which was very nice with a bottle of Merlot to wash it down.
