I've heard of it, seen the ads on tv for it... but I know nothing about it? What song did you always mishear the lyrics too...? for example I always thought in the ''Israelites' by Desmond decker ... that the lyrics were '' ''Gets up in the morning Same thing for breakfast.'' instead of... Original Lyrics: ''Gets up in the morning Slaving for bread, sir.''
Holly..... ATKINS is low carb and it really works.. Google it and get some information.. Also you can join the Low Carb Forum which I am on and id very helpful.. Check it out.. http://www.lowcarbsite.com/
Holly, you are more than welcome.. I am on there as Steve..... There are others from here that are on there as well.. Now, back to the questions and answers game.. You do know that we are supposed to ask a question and also, if you want, give your opinion or your answer as well.. Holidays are all over ........ Was it a quiet time or an active time?? We had an extremely quiet holiday season with my wife not being able to weight bear on her ankle..
Yes we too had a very quiet Christmas.. hubs used a lot of his time off work to do some maintenance around the house.. Have you ever eaten British food...if so, what's your favourite?
Crumpets... I had them years ago and I can't find them anymore... Most people seem to like Chinese food.. I also like it but can't find a restaurant in our area.. Do you like eating Chinese food ???
I prefer British food... but occasionally I'll eat Chinese.... we have restaurants in our area but they're not very good, too full of MSG . To get a good Chinese meal we have to drive into London..... I'd rather go without than make the drive .. I'll send you some crumpets if you like Steve... .. When was the last time you had your photo taken? ..and did you like the result?
My family are constantly taking pictures of all of us with their cell phones. If they let me know they are going to take them, I smile and try to look pretty. Those turn out OK, not great but OK. But, if they take them without warning, they look awful. My eyes are crossed, my tongue is out, I'm slouched over, I have my finger up my nose or something. The only time I ever had it made professionally, I was very unhappy with it. For that kind of money, I expected to be gorgeous. I think it must have been the first photographs for the girl who took them. Only one out of the whole set turned out even half right. How do you feel about people taking your picture?
I really don't mind, but why would they want my picture, is the question I can't answer.. Other than a cell phone, do you own a camera ??? I don't own a cell phone or a camera..
Oh yes indeed, I'm an avid photo taker, and my camera goes everywhere with me...as does my Iphone.. both take pictures different to the other, depending on the lighting etc.. What is your favourite style of architecture.. ?
I don't know enough about architecture to have a favourite style. My spell check tells me that should be favorite. My taste leans more toward clean lines without all the frau frau so I would guess it would be Spanish. How would you describe your home as far as architecture?
We live in an "A" Frame house on a large section of land in the suburbs of a small village up in Northern Ontario just on top of Lake Huron...... We have a 2 bedroom house, with, upstairs the ceiling is on a slant.. We have no basement but crawl space.. Our home is definitely a bit different as there are not very many "A" Frame houses around.... Shirley.......... favourite is the British way of spelling it and favorite is the American way.. Many words have a U the British way while the American way has dropped the U.... It doesn't make any difference as long as we understand each other.... Now, how are U ????? ... Hope you are feeling OK.... With the flu season here and going around, how are you protecting yourself from getting sick ???? We have had the flu shot, we wash our hands many times a day and then use the sanitizer, and try to stay away from problematic places..
You're absolutely correct about the British way of spelling Steve.. .. I haven't had the Flu shot..I've got a medical issue which means I can't have it even if I wanted it... but we're doing everything we can to protect ourselves..washing hands, taking extra Vitamin C & Zinc... using our antiseptic handwash when we're out after touching bannisters, supermarket trolleys ( (yes trolleys not carts Shirleeee)...lol.. etc.. so we're doing what we can in the hope of not catching it.. We were in the British Library in London a couple of days ago.. They have some beautiful original manuscripts from people such as Michaelangelo.. ( a letter written 500 years ago)... and lots of others, including musicians , authors etc.. , also one of Jane Austens' actual original journals where she'd written the bones of 2 new books.. . , all kept behind glass and almost in the dark to protect them.. and we weren't permitted to take photos. I sneaked one of the Jane Austen journal.. and got told off .. but would that be something you'd like to see or not?
