Typical! This afternoon I went to the hairdresser, my hair looked great, as soon as I left a gust of icy cold wind whipped around and I now look like I have been dragged backwards through a hedge

@Lullabelle
Sorry - I know your frustration.

@Lullabelle
Sorry - I know your frustration.

Last time I went my husband suggested taking the phone to take pictures because it won't look that good again until I go back

Do you have Air Con? I think I would die in that heat!

No.

We do have wall mounted fans.

35° is hot but not ridiculous

Are you a curly?

 

[Yorky]

Why is the "What did you cook/eat today" thread locked?

Probably because you are attempting to open the "December" thread?

 

[Yorky]

No.

We have two ceiling fans in the lounge and one oscillating ceiling fan in each bedroom. 35 degC may sometimes warrant turning on the aircon in the evening.

Just say it's the 'shabby chic' look and it cost a FORTUNE [sorry]

We have snow every year [and ice and frost - in fact much less of it now that even when I was young] BUT we still close schools roads and often run trains late because of maybe 1 - 3 ins of snow tops. Why ?

One of the cars isn't quite right!

Doing less than 20mph on a flat, no hill to come down, road.

 

[sidevalve]

Less than 20mph on the flat - I suspect we are missing something here

Hardly a mention of food or cooking but a brilliant film.

"What We Did On Our Holiday (2014)".

Exceptional.

Are you a curly?

No mostly straight with a few kinks so sometimes bits curl outwards and no amount of time with hair straighteners seems to work

 

[Lullabelle]

here today so won't be spending much time outside

 

[Lullabelle]

It's snowing

I did say I wanted to take more responsibility in the kitchen so I cooked dinner last night and I am cooking this evenings dinner too.
