RMweb Premium skipepsi Posted October 3, 2013 RMweb Premium Share Posted October 3, 2013 Midday all, computer clock seems stuck at 11.59.... By this time tomorrow Karen should be on her way to or in theatre so she will be fast asleep and pain free. Hopefully their little book of doom will be totally wrong and everything will be fine. The weather is gloomy but not raining this morning but I am not holding my breath for a dry day. Number one son rang his younger sister last night 'do I sound drunk to you?' No 'In yer face you three I am not drunk at all'. I rest my case M'lud. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold Donw Posted October 3, 2013 RMweb Gold Share Posted October 3, 2013 My condolences DD. With regard to the money I have had little trouble with moving large amounts around with the house move. However having just as the solicitors to do a small job the form as the question where did the funds come from. A bit silly really as they handle the sale of the house and sent the money to us so they know full well where it came from, but I suppose the question has to be asked and the form filled in to meet the Money LAuandering requirements.

Robert Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 Afternoon All, I am enjoying a quiet Bank Holiday today. After a lay in, I've spent most of the time up until now writing a sermon for Sunday, as I have been asked to take the Sunday service at Church. We lit the log burner too! Have a good day everyone... 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold Tony_S Posted October 4, 2013 RMweb Gold Share Posted October 4, 2013 Morning all. Very wet out but also rather warm. I wonder if Don's tree will be made into guitars. Matthew let me know yesterday that he now has broadband at his house. The cable company he dealt with seem to have got their act together compared to when we had the misfortune to be customers for their TV service, I actually did something model railway related yesterday. When I finally complete the remaining gap on the garage roundy roundy it would be nice to have something to run so I thought putting a decoder into a loco would be a good start. I think the last time I took the body off a UK steam loco it had moulded on handrails. Tony Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold grandadbob Posted October 4, 2013 RMweb Gold Share Posted October 4, 2013 Good morning all Dull & damp,17oC with more showers to come this morning but should be drier & brighter later. There may even be some sunshine! Another day of nothing special planned until this evening when a couple of friends are coming for a meal. I haven't been asked to help with this as yet although if the new oven is being used I may be called upon. We've changed from gas to an all singing & dancing electric fan oven & at the moment Chris is keeping an open mind after 43 years of using gas! It was my idea which she agreed to after a great deal of persuasion providing she could still have a gas hob. You just know who'll get the blame if any meals go wrong now. (They never have in the past!) Have a good one, Bob. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gruffalo Posted October 4, 2013 Share Posted October 4, 2013 Good morning all Dull & damp,17oC with more showers to come this morning but should be drier & brighter later.

(They never have in the past!) Have a good one, Bob. In my mind, the ideal combination Bob. In the land of Gruffalos, we do not get gas so the hob is not as controllable as I would like but our oven does excel! Madam Gruffalo is comfortable using it and didn't like using her late father's new gas oven when she had to. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold beast66606 Posted October 4, 2013 RMweb Gold Share Posted October 4, 2013 Morning all. Bucking the trend it is a lovely morning down here, mild and sunny, 18degC according to the car thermometer. The nights are quickly drawing in, I went to my local station straight from work to photograph the local stone train, it passed me at 18:30 and I was struggling for light, lucky I have a good camera which can ramp up the iso rating but even so, I'll be lucky if I can get it again until next March (!). Have a good day all. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

iL Dottore Posted October 4, 2013 Share Posted October 4, 2013 (edited) Gas Hob and Electric Oven - the perfect combination. Unfortunately, whist I have the latter, I have an electric ceramic hob. A nasty thing it is as well... After doing some serious cooking on a gas hob in the past (cooking for 30+ at the lodge), I just loathe cooking with electric jobs. They are never as responsive as gas. Whilst on the subject of cooking, a few years ago I discovered Nisbets, a company dealing with both the restaurant trade and the general public (usual disclaimers apply). Since I discovered Nisbets and their pro gear, I have been slowly replacing my domestic equipment with pro stuff. Most of the time it's no more expensive than domestic equipment, but much more reliable than the domestic equivelant. for example, I bought a professional cook's pie-tin recently from Nisbets for about the same price as one from a local supermarket and the pro equivelant is really a solid piece of metal and hasn't warped yet (unfortunately, my experience with domestic pie-tins is that they warp after one or two uses). The pro food processor I will buy to replace my existing one (I'm on my third domestic model...), only has one switch with 3 settings (on/off/pulse) but is built like a tank and will probably outlast me... So... WHEN YOU GOTTA GO, GO PRO And now back to your regular programming.... Edited October 4, 2013 by iL Dottore 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
