Trallwm farm Posted December 15, 2011 Report Share Posted December 15, 2011 Im not Loobie trust me lol. Well done for all your hard work paying off though and getting a permanant contract. The next bit is NOT for Owl as she is allergic to all contents Trallwm Farm As a Superscrimper Christmas gift, heres the recipe for chocolate liquer which should give you two wine bottles full for about £4 each Full bottle of cheap as chips Vodka ( Aldi,Lidl or home bargains is fine ) 12 oz of sugar 1 pint of water, Bar (and a half optional) of 80 % chocolate (Aldis or Lidl do a brilliant cheap one ) 1 tin of condensed milk Heat sugar and water to boiling and untill sugar is disolved, remove from heat and add condensed milk and then chocolate broken into small bits, Dark chocolate always tastes better ! leave to cool but stir occasionally. Pour exactly half of vodka into a sterilised wine bottle and then fill both bottles with stirred chocolate mix leaving a small gap at the top so you can shake the mixture and stop chocolate setting at the top. Best Superscrimper tip * If you have any chocolate mixture left add more vodka and drink from the bowl. Feel free to share this on so people can have something magical....Chocolate and Vodka in a glass !!!! Happy Christmas every body Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

owl Posted December 15, 2011 Report Share Posted December 15, 2011 (edited) The next bit is NOT for Owl as she is allergic to all contents. I'm not allergic to condensed milk so I can just leave out the chocolate and alcohol and have extra condensed milk instead. Little Reggie is very cute We had snow this morning but it has gone. Polly had another fit but recovered very quickly and was scoffing her supper 5 mins later. Wispa hadn't seen her in a fit before and was very concerned. Looks as if they are happening every few days.

merledogs Posted December 16, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 16, 2011 Morning Had six hours sleep last night, which is good I really need to get to the bottom (no pun intended) of the runny poos. It's most odd, happens sometimes but not all, and it's not always the same dog. I've just fed them plain kibble last night so we'll see how they go today. I do wonder if it could be the bag of Autarky though cos it seemed to start around the time I opened the new bag If I feed them that and nothing else then I'll know one way or the other.

snow Posted December 16, 2011 Report Share Posted December 16, 2011 OMG what heck is up with me this morning first I lose the multiquotes, then everything I type comes out looking like some bassackwards spelling contest then I hit post before I've even written what it was I wanted to write - when they say menopause makes you batty they are right!! My cars in for the power steering belt to be changed and the steering checked over to make sure the car is safe to drive after my terrifying abortive attempt to get to Wales on Wednesday - sods law of course then kicked in with my mum having got upsetting news yesterday about her chemo and I wasn't there with her she'd absolutely set her heart and fixated upon him telling her she'd need 6-8 cycles of treatment and would have a break after the 4th one, as shes having chemo every 14 days we ALL had been working on the 4th one being 22nd Dec then a break and then 4 more with it all over by March - no one had explained to us that each "cycle" was in 2 parts A & B so its 1 cycle per MONTH so shes only had 2 full cycles so no break until March and then he's now said its definately 4 more cycles after that so she'll be having chemo every 14 days until July!!!! We absolutely had not bargained for that at all - how the heck we will be able to keep up this level of intensity of care for another 7 months is beyond me The car issue has made me feel incredibly guilty - I know I couldn't help it or predict it and these things are going to happen, I know shes still been able to get to her appointments etc. but I really really didn't want to go down this week as I had so much to do at home and now that I haven't gone down there I can do a lot of it which is good BUT I feel really really guilty about it nonetheless.

merledogs Posted December 16, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 16, 2011 Snow don't beat yourself up about it - it is what it is and it's not your fault and another one for your poor mum We've had quite heavy snow here, but only for a short period and as the ground's wet it didn't stick. 'Tis sunny now but not for long I suspect. RMF : I've come to the conclusion that I should only have to work mornings cos by lunchtime I always feel like a nap Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
