M&S Hurricane Lamp

[Robinia]

Has anyone bought one of these ?
Could you please tell me the size of it? I don't know why they don't state it! I have mailed M&S but they haven't replied yet.

Or has anyone seen the same thing elsewhere? Thanks!

Scrubbit here ..did I hear fromage mentioned .Sorry I haven't been about ....I have got the grumps and am not good company when I get them .A black dog always seems to descend over me at this time of the year for some reason and my ritics and ologies are playing me up something awful .It is cold, damp, wet windy and miserable Perhaps I'll feel better when I've draped a bit of tinsel over me flying ducks.
I am worried about my brother with his move which is now all signed and sealed thank goodness.When I left them yesterday they looked so forlorn sitting there amongst all the boxes.
However don't let me put you off..... feel free to chunter !!
Bon Voyage Jno ....easy on the pomme frites !!

[Robinia]

oooh sorry you're feeling down shaney, seems to be a lot of it about - I get a bit like that at this time of yr but the weather has been lovely & crisp & bright today which is a boost. Here, you can do some spud bashing for me, that's good therapy....please do plenty & then I can have pommes frites tomorrow.
My son's been shopping & just popped up on msn as Ebenezer Meldrew....doesn't bode too well does it? lol ...better tread carefully methinks....

[netibiza]

Well I've got the tree and a few "posh" decs up and now I'm feeling depressed - doesn't seem like a normal Xmastide. Tree seems very short now it's all up and done, I've realise that I have forgotten to put in the middle section of it , oh well. It'll bug me now until I rip it all apart and redo it properly, which I am desperately trying not to do.

[shaneystar2]

My son has bought a webcam ..if he keeps hovering near me with it much more and showing the world my crows feet I will not be responsible for my actions !

Here is a nice little Norfolk rhyme for Windy !!

RUM OLE NEARMES (Strange Placenames)

Moost counties hev nearmes searm'as Norfolk
Whot never sound quite loike they spell.
So, because I'm a trew Norfolk dumplin'
I fare ter know some onnem well.

Now, why should Wy-mond-ham be Windham?
And Happ-is-burgh's Haisboro, yew see,
And Haut-bois....well, thass known as Hobbies.
They reckun thass French - dunt arsk me!

There's By-laugh whot lay close ter Dereham,
Called Belaw, at least so they say,
And Gar-bold-is-ham-well, jist leave out the middle
Then Garblesham's the trew Norfolk way.

There's Colney, well, thass known as Coney,
An' Cost-ess-ey thas Cossey fer sure.
Hindol-vest-on is well know as Hilderstun,
But please dunt arsk me what for!

The old folk at Wive-ton say Wiffen,
An' the neartives of Cley will say Clay,
While Glandford's referred to as Glanfer,
Thass torkin' the trew Norfolk way.

The Norfolk for Salt-house is Saltus,
An' Morston - just leave out the T.
While Stody is allus called Study,
That dew seem a rum'un ter me.

There's Stiffkey what locals call Stukey
(no rude remarks please)
An' their cockles are called Stukey Blews.
Thow, o'course, the village med headlines
When the parson wuz well in the news.

This list ent complete I assure yew,
But these few are a proof jist ter show
Thass roight trew whot the rhyme say o' Norfolk....
"We allus dew diffrunt, yer know!"

a target='_blank' target='_blank' target='_blank' style="background: #FFCCCC;color: black;font-size: 12px;font-weight: bold; cursor: text;text-decoration: none;">TEXT HERE</a

Just copy and paste the above. Put a < before the whole thing and a > after. Change the "text here" to anything you want to put.

It took me all day to learn this, everyone is doing it on suggs and I finally managed about 9 pm. Good luck
