Look what Bev and Thee whipped up for New Years Eve, Oi Bev dont forget to send the recipe thru, Chris and I ate the leftover yesterday, yummo …

yummo! Did you know that in Korea, when you wrap your little bits of meat and vegies up into a lettuce leaf, the then idea is to be able to shove the whole thing into your gob in one go, no biting or nibbling it first… and the hidden agenda is to make a parcel bigger than anyone else at the table!

beautiful looking food – of course i’m uncertain as to taste – but your pride in showing it off tells me we all need those recipes.

You sure can grow roses TheE. We have a few growing but I think they are more trouble than what they are worth. This is in the North of course.

Now Day Lilies I can handle. They thrive in any conditions and flower no matter what the weather.

Do you have a “Fedelio” rose?

Do you have a “Fedelio” rose?

ssowwy never even heard of that one ????, sounds rather horny really …………….

you’re bad Muriel… Fedelio was my favourite red Rose I used to grow. When my sister had a baby (when I used to live down south), I cut her about 3 dozen stems of Fedelio and delivered them to her in the horsespittle.. she stayed on a couple of days and then gave the blooms to the midwives and nurses, who told her that they were still holding their shape and looking good 7 days after my sis had left…

Such beautiful flowers, I have rose envy :)

There were two rose beds in the front yard when we bought this place but they had to be moved, I wanted the area for vegies. We had a friends 8yr old son help us dig them up, word of caution dont let kids help if you want to keep roses. I havnt bothered replacing any but might have to now The Frog is here, is there a type called Olivia?

I remember you saying MrLincoln was your favourite red.(rose, not wine)

There is a rose named after Olivia Newton JOhn ?

Then your memory is not as good as you think… When I was in the army, I would get into quite a heated argument with a certain Major who thought Mr Lincoln was superior to Fedelio. Bollocks to that I would say and stand my ground.

Now yes Mr Lincoln is a nice rose and I have said that in the past, but Fedelio for me is the better…

There is an Olivia Newton John rose that you could just refer to as Olivia, LOL! Very pretty too and part proceeds go to cancer research.

Me neither, but I when I joined, some of you had known each other for a year or two so I still expect to be surprised with revelations on occasion.

Pretty sure it’s Lucky who likes Mr Lincoln…maybe that’s where you plucked it from Pom.

Maybe the association is perhaps I once vehemently took a disliking to Mr Lincoln in defence of Fedelio???

No scanner?

we have a scanner, but the software doesn’t work on Linux (his) or Vista (mine) and it costs more than a new scanner to update the software!! It could be put on Miss N’s computer as she has XP but the man has not bothered to do so.

>the software doesn’t work on Linux (his)

Tell him about Xsane scanner software. Stand alone or it integrates with Gimp editing software. It is free.

Linux package management makes it so easy to install it.

Another is quitinsane – also integrates with Gimp.

Sane is SANE – Scanner Access Now Easy, a project that does what it says! 8^)
