Good Luck Annie G. Hope it is juicy enough for you, and worth giving the ironing a miss. LOLOL

I'm off now to have an e mail conversation with a librarian in Toronto. Someone has uncovered some scandal for me from 1921. Funny the things you do to avoid ironing.

Annie

Annie G, LOLOL "That's The Way To Do It". Boom, boom.

The Izal was terrible - it was slippery ========== yuck

I can smell Izal just thinking about it. You were posh to have that. I remember when I started teaching umpteen years ago we used Izal as tracing paper.

What a wonderful board this is! From snow to Izal in one page.

Annie

What a lovely picture on your Avatar, Florence. I love dogs, so please tell me all about them.
I bet your cold where you are, arn't you.
It was only late in life that my parents had luxery toilet roll. No wonder they both suffered from piles. LOLOL

Take Care

LOL Julia. when my grandparents were alive,they only had IZAL in the bathroom as grandad said it was most hygienic.However after he passed away, the next time i went to visit grandmas bathroom,the IZAL had been replaced with luxury toilet tissue!

Annie G, In between the newspaper and Andrex, we had IZAL, at our house. This was just as bad as the newspaper. LOLOL

He probably does what they did here in days gone by, Julia. They cut papers up into squares and hung them on a nail behind the door. I'll leave the rest to your imagination. Suffice to say, when we were young we were all very glad to see the arrival of Andrex.

AnnieG, Eldrick's favourite reading is 'Take A Break'. Don't know what he does with it when he's finished reading it. LOLOL

Julia in Derbyshire

Bet you don't hang around in there reading the Beano, Eldrick.

Hiya Julia.....

Tell you what when you start yours i'll start mine LOL.....just let me know....

Have to admit since Ive moved I have done nothing in my garden apart from trimming the trees........to be honest its a small garden so shouldnt take that long to sort out.......I says as I looks out of the window :-D

Hiya Mersey, I very often have those ideas. LOL. But the same as you, I'll tackle it 'tomorrow'.
But, joking aside, I shall know when it is time to start, and it is not yet, believe me.

Julia in Derbyshire

Well I was determined I was going to start my garden this morning no matter what the weather, woke up looked out the window and decided I will do ot tomorrow LOLOL :-D :-D

Am warm and cosy in d.gown - OH went off to golf about 9.30 and I did not feel like getting wash/dressed/exercises before 9.00 a.m. So I am slobbing.

Bright blue skies here but OH said it was nippy out. Must get washed and exercised before he returns.

Hard frost here this morning and it is still on all the rooves not in the sun. But it is lovely and sunny and I enjoyed my walk to fetch the papers.
