This will only make sense to a daft grandad...

Morning DG.
In reply to the question of yours yesterday, which I missed - Actually IN Boston itself x

[Count-A-Strong]

Nice place for a tea party.

[Bbbananas]

Oh yes Count - I often hold them. With dainty little teacups and little fingers held up in the air.... Before we start on the gin, that is...!

[boxtops]

..and do you cut the crusts off your cucumber sarnies, salla?

[Bbbananas]

Obvious Dahling, I am a Lay-dee as everyone on here is aware...

[boxtops]

salla, I am trying with a magnifying glass to understand, what IS that on your avatar...?

[Bbbananas]

As, yesterday, I tried to be an 'angel', I wanted an angel avatar. Somehow I was drawn towards this black angel - cos I don't think I could ever be 100% angelic.

Unfortuantely it looks more like a deformed crow....

[boxtops]

I hate to say this but I thought it was a dead blackbird.... and I couldn't understand why, it just doesn't suit you, IMHO

[Bbbananas]

In that case boxy, cos I respect your opinion man, I shall change it to something more jolly forthwith.... Just let me go & have a gander at what I can find today x

Morning salla,lovely to hear from you.
Son,D in L and grandson are in Surfleet.
Went to Boston,with them,last Xmas.After shopping,we had tea in a very large department store.Do you know its name ?
Many thanks for replying and have a good day.
Kind regards dg x

I bet it was Oldrids.... Boston's only dept store!!

Surfleet is 11 miles from where I work and live. A nice village. I had an aunt & uncle who lived on the side of the River Glen - myself & Lil spent many a happy summer's day there, sliding on their parquet floor and dipping our toes & skimming stones in the river. A couple of nice pubs too!

[daftgrandad]

Thats the one !
Usually have a glass or three in the Mermaid,when we go up.
Thanks for info x
