maple syrup products

[woofgang]

does anyone know where I can buy maple sugar, cream and butter from a uk mail order company? I know I can get it straight from Canada and the US but the p and p and customs make this very expensive.

Sunny and chilly here. We are going to try a new Mexican restaurant in the town square for lunch as we prefer to pick at things instead of a big plateful. It is carnival today I Ibiza town but I cant be doing with all the crowds. I may go and watch the local one on Tuesday

gah. Cold and wet. But at least no blizzards like they're supposedly expecting oop north and no sandstorms like in the Canaries.

oh, that's nice, I've just had a case of six bottles of wine delivered. I thought it must be for someone else, but it's definitely for me, and there was a card saying "Thank you for booking a holiday with us." Travel companies must really be having a lot of difficulty these days, what with nobody wanting to go to Wuhan.

I should just copy paste this next bit

hello, wet and windy here and I had to paddle round to the garage to run the tumble dryer.

Up early for blood tests
Woofy I also have to walk to an outside shed to do washing and use the drier. Things can wet bringing them bacl to the house!

be brave Neti! We have no rain and no wind here, its a miracle

[netibiza]

Yes I was brave! A young lad fainted as they always do! The nurses just sling them onto a trolley!!
Lovely day here and its carnival. Not sure if I'll.pop done to watch or not!
Deep joy I have received my S1 healthcare from UK so they now pay for it all!

[woofgang]

that must be a relief

Went to carnival it was good but so slow. I had to stand for 2 and quarter hrs and I really have no balance at all. Was so worried I would get pushed over in all the jostling and enthusiasm! Luckily I had made 2 curries and rice earlier so only had to heat them up and fry the poppodoms
Even so my legs and back were killing me. Now all clean and in bed. Shattered

Just popping in before bed.
Still windy here but not so wet ,only one shower today for a change but it's turned very cold and they uttered the snow word on the local forecast.
I've been getting lots of carnival pics sent to me via Whatsapp.I loved carnival in Germany.It's a big thing there.On Rosenmontag,at work we could wear fancy hats and were allowed a glass of beer in the canteen.Some of us had beer under the cash desk ;-)I doubt that happens now though.
That's good to hear Neti.Peace of mind for you.
Nothing doing otherwise.Hope you're all ok. Night all.

had a very nice Turkish lunch with my sisters, both in town for the wedding. We chatted for so long they had to resort to turning the music up and the heating down.

Snowing in Barcelona and sunny here. The only relief I get with the S1 is that I can be treated in UK and also here if Mr N dies.
I've been under the spanish systems for 33 years piggybacking off Mr N.
Jno are you all getting excited?

[jno]

not really, neti, I've been there before. Just hoping this is the last one. (No chance of my being alive when any grandschildren come to marry.)

It was snowing for 10 minutes here his morning. You can see the havoc it caused in the video here

How exciting
We have snow on the ground at Barcelona and Lerida! Sunny and chilly here.
I'm not even getting any grandkids at all!

Sister flew to Miami yesterday and is going on a caribbean cruise! I think k.its the wrong time but it's been booked for ages. Hope they can disembark at Jamaica as she used to live there in the early 60s. She love to see the all her old haunts

Morning all, here I is in cold and dreary Derbyshire, the rain's turning to snow on and off. Have you gone rusty? I found a can of 3-in-1 in the shed, price ticket says 2/6d..I add a few drops to my body lotion.
Hope you're ok and virus free, I've had some monster headaches, most likely weather related. I'm fed up of it now.

My grandmonsters are growing up fast....you should see the biddybabies. I'll send you a pic.

[woofgang]

yes, getting weather headaches here too :(

[netibiza]

Happy wedding day to jno jnr! Hope you all have a lovely day! X

[jno]

what a filthy day for a wedding. There are two large black birds on the lawn, I'm not sure if they're big crows or ravens but as there are two they're probably ravens. Apparently ravens are psychopomps, but I don't know if that's good or bad.

[woofgang]

depends who they have come for......
