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.

They're just normal music CDs bought from shops or wherever. I did manage by a fluke to get one onto a playlist somehow but
all I want to do is put them in the CD drawer and play them like I used to.I don't want to create a playlist,rip or burn them or whatever other things Windows media player suggest I do with them.I got so annoyed in the end I suggested Windows should go forth and multiply:)

My CD player has never worked on my sony laptop. So I download all music onto a pendrive now and play that

[jno]

oh technology ... I had to give up my music player because it started up whenever I clicked the remote for the TV. Now my stupid watch keeps resetting itself to January 1 (plus a few hours and minutes), and the last thing I want to do is relive this wretched year. I have ordered a new watch. And I'll just have to play music on the computer. Though the sound got so poor I had to get a new computer too :-(

[shaneystar2]

Ooh that's far too complicated Neti.I've got a Sony Walkman somewhere.I'll dig that out and recycle it.
I found another thing earlier called Groove music which I think is a Google thing and that's just as complicated as media player.I can get the CD on there but it asks me to " give it some songs." The damn songs are on the CD, why won't it play ..Tut. I've spent far too much time fiddling about with this stuff this evening so I'll go and sleep on it.
You're quite right Jno,this has been one of the most wretched years ever so far,for all sorts of reasons.Keep calm and carry on.
Night all.

[jno]

goodness, how did I miss this?

[shaneystar2]

That's hilarious Jno.I can see where I've been going wrong now.I'll have to knit along with Iron Maiden then I might either finish my ongoing project asap or drop even more stitches.
Nice here now after a cloudy start.Nothing doing really.Same old.
Hope you're feeling a bit better now Robinia and that the rest of you and yours are all OK.

[woofgang]

hello all KBO Robi. Its warm and sticky again here today. I'd love to do some gardening but I overdid it a bit yesterday so am reining myself in today....but it is lovely to see oases of tidyness. Hope you are all well.

meet the new watch, same as the old watch. I wonder if Casio will go on making the same ones forever? Nothing much happening here, a couple of vampire films watched, OH has an appointment two weeks away for an ostomy, and the greengrocer has delivered cherries that are bigger than cherry tomatoes.

[woofgang]

I hope that sorts your OH's problems. Its a scarey time.

Hello. Shaney just a thought did you have the volume muted on the Pc?
I waited in all day for the doctors phone call which came at 5pm. I have to go to health centre to arrange blood test on my liver. I spent nearly all day cleaning the deep fat fryer. It was disgusting but in my defence hija used it a lot in lockdown. Anyway its clean if not new looking!
Hope Robi is feeling better.

[shaneystar2]

I hope it all goes well for your OH Jno.Don't hesitate to ask if there's anything I can help you with about it.
Neti ,I didn't have the volume on mute. I'll have to wait until Picky is allowed in and can guide me through it. I found the Sony Walkman and can use that for now.Good luck with the blood test.

[netibiza]

Blood test ( although actually I think its a 2 pee test looking at the tubes they have given me) and that's on the 27th. We also managed to register as pensioners so hopefully now I wont have to pay for my meds. The health centre was a complete mess with people not know where to go or where to stand. I found a seat and stayed on it until it was out turn!

OH is isolating for a while ahead of a Covid test tomorrow in readiness for a biopsy a couple of days later that will mean a couple of nights in hospital (I don't know why, a GA maybe?) and then an oscopy a week after that. I shall be chauffeuring and shopping for two for some time.

[shaneystar2]

Hello all
Dull day but very warm.Stifling under the cloud.
Hope all goes well Jno .I thought your OH was having an ostomy like Mr S.
Nothing doing here. No motivation whatsoever.
Hope you're all OK .

[jno]

just an oscopy ... I hope. All this is just at the investigative stage, but it seems the scan didn't show anything, or at least not clearly enough.

[netibiza]

Hello. Hit and boring day. Did the usual shopping. Mr N helped push a car that woukdnt start and he was beggared when he returned. I was worried for a while. I almost set off to help push but then realised that at nearly 76 it probably wasnt the best idea!! Just made chicken satay 'a la hija' and it was soo nice. Mr N has made himself 2 huge cheeseburgers! Yuk hamburgers do not pass my lips!!
I am fed up with Spanish Netflix..watched first series of Land Girls and then there are no more so am having to illegally download it which is getting so much harder these days!! I may get arrested!!
13 new cases if covid and we were virtually clear! Barcelona has gone into voluntary lockdown so wont be long before we are. 7 flights from Barcelona today and no checking people at airport!! What do they expect?

[netibiza]

We drove to San jordi for coffee and then a martini and then home. Mr N aid what ehwll we have for lunch and then to my astonishment he produced a list of our freezer contents! And was crossing off as he used them!! Oh dear!!

[woofgang]

Mr tidyfreezer!

[netibiza]

You're telling me. I got up and there are sausages and diapers defrosting and the list (the dreaded list) being ticked off. I'm just too disorganised for all that. House is minimal and always clean and tidy and washing done daily, but that's as far as it goes.

[netibiza]

Diapers?? Yea gods I'm not that bad!! Hahaha
Potato Dippers !!!
