Anyone else out there preparing their Burbara Porridge tonight? Wifey has been busy in the kitchen ... Spices, rasins, wheat, nuts, rasins... Cooking slowly on the fire.

Some info on St Barbara's day from wikipedia

I have never heard of St Barbara so Thank you, very interesting. The porridge sounds delicious, does wifey make it with the barley or with traditional porridge oats?

Good morning all. I shall be spending this morning at my governor school.

After lunch I have an appointment with a neurotic neighbour and her computer. She turned up on my doorstep at 7pm yesterday, but there was no way I was going to try to sort it out there and then; I hadn’t even eaten my dinner.

Oh dear. As long as the computer is more reasonable than the neurotic neighbour, you should be fine. Otherwise, just run for your life :eek: :eek:

She is on her own, aged about 60, and my late next door neighbour used to fix everything for her. I am kind of surprised it has taken this long for her to turn up on our doorstep. As JoesDad said, we are going to have manage this one carefully.

Good morning roommates. :)
The snow of yesterday is melting away. Only some little pieces left. The next days it should be warmer ( 9 C ) said the weather man.:D
It could be difficult with the delivery of snow to the UK when I`ll get no snow before Christmas again.:(

Good morning, Linda!
Hmmmm.
Interesting day, that could go either way?
Good luck.
One imagines the computer may be a little neurotic as well. That could be the problem.

Good morning, my dear roommates around the world!
I have a postcard for you of the super(but not super-photoshopped)moon :)

And did I tell you we've bought our Christmas tree? Well, it was too tall to fit in the apartment:

So you left it in the street?
Looks like a traffic hazard to me!
Good afternoon, Lena. :)
