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.

Good morning all. It's raining and I did gardening yesterday Yes! No nipplewort to be found but loads of weeds on side patio so they have now gone. I now ache all over although I sat down most of the time! I have decided gardening is not for me! Spain is having a tough time with this covid but we are isolating as per the law. I didnt live my fabulous life here just to be taken by covid!!
Hope you are all safe and stay safe!!

Morning all...cold, windy and dull today. Things didn't seem so bad in the mild sunshine :(

There is that I suppose jno. Maybe I'd need to go back five years(?) and cancel the whole thing.

So what's the plan today? .....taps fingers.....
Shaney could Mr Tidytins do a youtube tutorial on cupboard control please?

[Robinia]

Oh well done neti. The first time is the toughest with gardening, you'll be Capability Biza by the autumn.

Morning all
Well done Netidimmock:)
Bit dull out there this morning and a real feel of 4C
Brrr.
Lol Robinia.It's a wonder he hasn't done a spreadsheet on the contents of the cupboards.He's got them for everything else.

I've just managed to get a slot at Iceland.
It's like winning the lottery.

[shaneystar2]

Must be my lucky day..haha.The postman has just been and I've won 25 quids worth of book tokens for the Azed crossword.
I'm going to spend them on a survival book :)

[woofgang]

wow Shaney, things come in 3's do the lottery!

[Robinia]

Well done shaney. Yes, do the lotto....and...don't forget...we're all in this together. Share and share alike. :)

[shaneystar2]

Right you are.If I win the jackpot and when this is all over we're on the first flight outa here to Ibiza and we're gonna party like it's 1999.

[Robinia]

Can we party like it's 1969 please? Love 'n peace and flowers everywhere. Neti will love that :)

Rupert T. Bear is 100 in November! I hope he's self isolating, it would be a shame if he didn't make it.

Crikey,that old .I used to love to get a Rupert Bear annual.
I was musing earlier ,as you do,looking out in the garden and then those books sprang to mind written by that expert chap.We've got some knocking about somewhere.I think his name was Hessyon or something and he did those expert books.The vegetable expert,the tree and shrub expert etc.
I said to Mr S ,who was looking bored ,that he could write a book,
The Tidy Tins Expert.
Talk about a dirty look :)

[woofgang]

alex hessayon....very good stuff

[shaneystar2]

Altogether now .........

[Robinia]

Brilliant shaney, I've passed that on :)

Love the Tidy tins Expert idea...can he have it out by Christmas please? I know a few who'd benefit, haha.

[shaneystar2]

My old schoolfriend sent it to me earlier today .
I've got an ear worm now.

[netibiza]

Hello biddies. I'm sticking to the old time for now! Yes shaney that is good!
Mr N is also a tidy tins and is edging that way again. Oh lawd! He is doing most of the cooking as it keeps him occupied and I dont mind!!
Back still aching so that definitely it no more gardening for me! But have to say how nice it is to see side patio all clean and tidy!

[netibiza]

Robi are you still watching Causualty/holby? I rather like that Will chap and Ethan is now a bit wimpish! Adore Dylan!! And Hanssen!

[Robinia]

Good morning all...ooooh, it's bloomin' perishing. My sister's had a snow flurry over her way :(
Yes neti, I'm still watching and I agree with all you've mentioned. I doubt Charlie's gone for good and I hope Ruby doesn't leave to take care of the baby. I love Jan (ambulance manager) she's very natural and nothing gets past her. If, heaven forbid, I needed an ambulance I'd want someone like her to help me.

Not altered my clocks yet, at least it's one hour less in solitary.

sunshine again! I'd make the most of it by queuing outside a supermarket but OH went indoor shopping yesterday and got most of what we want.

Where's your sister, Robinia, Lapland?
