When I was young house coats were also ladies overalls to be worn over clothes for housework.
An alternative to pinafores/aprons. Made of very light, maybe nylon material.
Also interesting.
Might have heard this.

Cwtch is a very common Welsh word meaning hug.
Twp also common meaning stupid e.g he drove through a red light he must be twp
(the w sounding like oo in good)
is that the same in the Welsh language? So you would say cwtch to hug if you were speaking in Welsh as well? Or something different?

Instead of cooking the carrots, how about shredding them with a grater.
They would be softer and I think they would have more vitamins and minerals.
I occasionally give Lola grated carrot - but only as a treat now and again.
Will Oli eat the carrot leaves?
Thanks your advice Lyn. I've tried feeding OLI carrots 'your' way. It'd be quicker than cooking them. However, he REFUSED to eat them: he really is PICKY on food. I'm NOT going to say he's a W.......so as not to allow someone else to repeat it endlessly - hmmmm). Moreover, I have to even peel the carrots for :<3:His Royal Highness! :<3:

For August you finished 8th and took 18 points to add to your previous points to go on to the end of the year.
For September, your position is not yet released.:)

Just dandy! Sitting on the couch wrapped up in a blanket and smelling our crockpot chicken fajitas cooking. They've already canceled clinicals Monday in preparation for the storm.
Aw that sounds fab!!! Lucky you. I had a roll and bacon for my dinner and it was awesome!
What storm are you expecting?

Ahh I see. Do most people in Wales speak Welsh or only some? I was under the impression schools in Wales teach in Welsh. I can't remember where I got that from lol
Depends which part if Wales you are in.
West, Mid and North its prob first language
South East and East nearer the border with England is predominantly English.
and was practically wiped out by being banned in the 19th century.
Welsh is compulsory in all Welsh schools now so its making a big come back.
My Dad was a Welsh speaker but not my Mum so we were brought up with English.
I went to lessons to learn it but am not fluent.
I can understand more than I can speak though.
