Have you made your own calendar using your own photos? I've seen them done but some are better than others. Have written on a post Sunny Days posted about this has made me think I have time to make my own.
How funny as I have no real hobbies either. That sounds very interesting and it will get you out in the countryside and fresh air. Will you be cooking any?
I'm laughing at this Trisha as what on earth can they want your date of birth for? Could it be that they want to sent out sales emails for sex toys but you have to be under 30?
Alias Smith and Jones. BBC2 on a Monday night at 8pm - loved, loved, loved it and was so upset when Pete Duel aka Hannibal Heyes, killed himself on New Years Eve 1971 with a shotgun.
I'm against wearing fur too if that is all the animal has been killed for.
I was very upset on Monday to read in The Times about animals that are killed for kosher and halal food. 2.4 million sheep and goats had their throats cut without stunning in 2013. The numbers are on the increase. Britain applies an exemption for Muslims and Jews. Most chickens are killed the halal way which means most of us eating chicken that have not been stunned properly. Chickens are hung upside down by their legs, then assed through an electrified water bath. The current is not strong enough in most cases to knock the chicken unconscious. A prayer is said before they have their throat cut. Will you be eating roast chicken this week?
There are only 330,000 people living in Iceland. Less people means less crime usually. People living on small islands know each other, that sort of thing, helps to keep crime down.
Also it is cold in Iceland so they have to stay in doors and cuddle up to keep warm!!!!
Read your post again Sambuca and see it looks dead now. Mine is still green and has grown over the last month. Did it die back from the top or all go at the same time?
I've had clematis and there are different types requiring different pruning so stand back from those secateurs till you know what you're doing. I researched one of mine, cut it back and almost killed it. Only one piece of it produced shoots the following year. This year it has died back several times and each time I have cut out the dead and it send new shoots but it is still nothing like it was and OH wants me to replace it. I don't think I planted it deep enough and they like their roots covered with stone/slate or something to keep them from getting too hot.
Tips are best since they go directly to the person who is serving you .
Cash is best . Am still angry how back in my bartender /waitress days the corporation wud charge a processing fee for tips left on cc's.
That's not always the case here moi. A lot of places pool the tips then share them out with the restaurant manager having the greatest %. Kitchen staff sometimes get a share. My niece worked in a restaurant last year where she got nothing as she just carried plates and cleared tables!
I work on 10% if I think they deserve it but with minimum wage, it's not quite the same as in countries like the USA where I'm told they rely on tips as they get poor wages. Moi can you confirm?
