I use some digital bathroom scales...but always at the same time on the same day in the same position!!
We did have talking ones once...not recommended!! It's amazing how cross you can get with a talking machine!
' raises eyebrows '
Christ I can see me with a set of speaking scales !
There would be world war three in my bathroom on a daily basis .. I'd step on it , it would give a big old sigh and huff at me . Then tell me either ' lady , one at time ! ' .. Or ..' Good grief lady ! Give me a break ! '.
Then I'd have to kill it .. With a hammer ..
Took a ride to daughters and crossed across the Salisbury Plain this afternoon .. No tanks but the aircraft were out in force ! It was awesome to see all the gun ship helicopters and chinooks and even a few bombers passing over .. Nothing makes my hair stand up and make my blood pound that to see these amazing machines .. At one point we pulled over near where they were circling and turned the car off so we could hear them .. Just incredible ..
Went to a pub with family , called The Three Daggers , daughter eats there a lot as its near to the estate she works on ..
You should see the menu ! Yum !
I settled for the soup on the menu which was Wild garlic , nettle and creme fraiche .. It was suprisingly good ..
If I had my way though , I would have called it Grinch Soup as it is the exact colour of the Grinch ! See pic ..
I did chew and suck the life out of a piece of slow cooked BBQ beef from daughters plate , but politely took the pulp back out of my mouth and hid it in a tissue in my bag , now the cat is trying to attack my bag !
It was sublime ..
Nothing I could have on the desert menu , but the waitress must have guessed about my eating liquids only , or she over heard us , and bless her heart she came discreetly over to me and said the chef would make some fresh custard ! Even though it wasn't on the menu
I cannot even find the words to tell you how that beautiful bowl of custard tasted . But I would have done violent things to any person who had tried to take it from me .. Extremely violent ..
So don't be afraid to ask staff if you need help .. I think sometimes they may like a challenge ? I am very bloated even though it was only liquids . I feel like I've eaten a full blown roast dinner ..
Back home late and the bloody cat is sat in the kitchen , right by the food cupboard door , tapping his foot and pointing at the clock 'where the bloody hell have you 2 been , it's way past my dinner time ! ' He rules our lives ..
Hope you've all had an awesome day !
